Product details
Overview
VN7E010AJTR from STMicroelectronics is a single-channel automotive smart high-side driver in PowerSSO-16 package, designed to control 12 V grounded resistive/inductive/capacitive loads via 3 V/5 V CMOS-compatible interface. It delivers 10.5 mΩ on-state resistance at 25°C, 88 A current limitation, and supports deep cold cranking down to 2.85 V - compliant with LV124 (2013) and AEC-Q100 Grade 0.
For engineers reviewing the VN7E010AJTR datasheet, VN7E010AJTR pinout, VN7E010AJTR application, or VN7E010AJTR equivalent, this device offers integrated CurrentSense analog feedback, configurable latch-off fault management, reverse battery protection support, and precise OFF-state open-load detection - critical for ADAS power distribution and headlamp control systems.
Technical Context
The VN7E010AJTR implements VIPower® M0-7 technology with a proprietary thermal transient limiter that self-regulates fast junction temperature spikes without external compensation. Its protection architecture combines undervoltage shutdown (2.85 V), overvoltage clamp (46 V typ), and dynamic power limitation triggered by either overload or thermal events.
CurrentSense functionality uses a high-precision proportional current mirror (K = 5000 ±7% at 18 A) with dedicated SEn enable and FaultRST unlatch control. Diagnostic multiplexing allows simultaneous monitoring of load current, short-to-VCC, OFF-state open-load, and thermal shutdown - all referenced to a single CS pin with ±12 V clamp range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| On-state resistance (RON) | 10.5 mΩ at 5 A, 25°C - enables low conduction loss and minimal self-heating in high-current automotive loads. |
| Current limitation (ILIMH) | 88 A typ. - provides robust short-circuit protection while sustaining peak loads during engine cranking. |
| Operating voltage range | 4–28 V - supports full automotive battery range including cold-crank dips to 2.85 V (VUSD_cranking). |
| Standby current (ISTBY) | 0.5 µA max at 13 V, 25°C - ensures ultra-low quiescent draw for always-on modules like ADAS sensors. |
| CurrentSense accuracy | ±7% error at 18 A - enables reliable closed-loop current monitoring without calibration for safety-critical loads. |
| Thermal shutdown (TTSD) | 150–200°C - latches off output when junction exceeds safe limit, with 7 K hysteresis for stable recovery. |
| Switching energy (WON/WOFF) | 0.8/0.7 mJ typ. - minimizes dissipation during PWM dimming of LED headlamps and reduces EMI. |
Pinout & Package
Package: PowerSSO-16 - thermally enhanced exposed-tab SO-16 variant with internal parallel output pins (pins 9–12 and 13–16) for high-current routing and low-inductance PCB layout.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Battery supply input | Accepts 4–28 V DC; clamped to 40 V transient; tab connection serves as primary thermal path. |
| OUTPUT | Power output terminal | Internally paralleled pins 9–12 and 13–16 - must be connected together on PCB for rated 88 A capability. |
| GND | Ground reference | Reverse-battery protected externally; separates control and power ground domains. |
| INPUT | CMOS-compatible switch control | Hysteresis-enabled (0.2 V), compatible with 3 V/5 V logic; drives output directly. |
| CS | Analog current sense output | Delivers ISENSE = IOUT / 5000 ±7%; clamped to −12 V / +7 V; used for real-time load diagnostics. |
| SEn | Sense enable control | Active-high CMOS input; disables CS during standby to eliminate leakage and enable shared sense resistor. |
| FaultRST | Fault reset/unlatch control | Active-low; sets auto-restart mode when held low, or enables manual latch-off recovery. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Extreme low-voltage operation | Functional down to 2.85 V VCC during cranking - meets LV124 Rev. 2013 for deep cold-start reliability. |
| Configurable fault latch-off | FaultRST pin selects between auto-restart (low) or persistent latch-off (high) - enables system-level fault strategy. |
| Multi-mode CurrentSense | Single CS pin reports load current, short-to-VCC, OFF-state open-load, and thermal fault - reduces BOM and routing complexity. |
| Integrated reverse battery protection support | GND pin withstands −200 mA reverse current; external diode/resistor network required - simplifies front-end design. |
| Ultra-low standby current | 0.5 µA max at 25°C - extends battery life in always-on ADAS modules without sacrificing diagnostic readiness. |
Applications
| ADAS Radar Power Supply | Automotive LED Headlamp Control |
|---|---|
|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| INFINEON BTS7004-1EPP | Higher RON (15 mΩ), no analog CurrentSense - only digital fault flag output. | Lacks continuous current monitoring; suitable for non-safety-critical loads where only fault indication is needed. | Choose for cost-sensitive BCM applications without diagnostic logging requirements. |
| ONSEMI NCV8460A | Lower ILIMH (65 A), wider VCC range (3.5–40 V), but no SEn-controlled OFF-state diagnosis. | Supports broader input range but cannot disable CS during sleep - increases standby leakage. | Prefer for entry-level lighting modules where cranking voltage margin >2.85 V is acceptable. |
Compared with VN7E010AJTR, BTS7004-1EPP trades analog diagnostics for lower cost and higher thermal robustness, while NCV8460A sacrifices current-sensing precision for extended voltage tolerance - making VN7E010AJTR optimal for ASIL-B-compliant ADAS and headlamp systems demanding both deep-crank operation and calibrated load monitoring.

FAQ
What is the maximum transient voltage the VN7E010AJTR can withstand?
The VN7E010AJTR supports up to 40 V transient supply voltage per ISO 16750-2 Test B (clamped), verified at RL = 4 Ω. This rating applies to short-duration pulses - not continuous operation - and is independent of its 28 V maximum operating voltage. The internal clamp circuit activates above 41 V to protect downstream circuitry.
How does the CurrentSense function work during OFF-state open-load detection?
When INPUT is low and SEn is high, the VN7E010AJTR enables OFF-state diagnostics: it applies a weak internal pull-up to OUTPUT and monitors VOUT via CS. If VOUT rises above 2–4 V (VOL threshold), the device asserts a diagnostic current (~11.5 µA) on CS, indicating an open load. This occurs within 100–700 µs after INPUT deactivation.
Can VN7E010AJTR drive inductive loads without external flyback components?
No - the VN7E010AJTR requires an external freewheeling diode or RC snubber across inductive loads. While it integrates turn-off voltage clamping (VDEMAG = VCC − 41 V), this only limits inductive kickback to safe levels for the die itself; external suppression remains mandatory to prevent EMI and protect adjacent circuitry per ISO 7637-2.
Is the PowerSSO-16 package RoHS and REACH compliant?
Yes - the VN7E010AJTR in PowerSSO-16 packaging meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, including SVHC screening. Lead-free matte tin termination and halogen-free molding compound are standard; full compliance documentation is available through ST's Quality Portal under document number ECOPACK2.
