Product details
Overview
VND1NV04-E from STMicroelectronics is a monolithic OMNIFET II fully autoprotected high-side Power MOSFET in TO-252 (DPAK) package, featuring 250 mΩ RDS(on), 1.7 A linear current limit, 40 V drain-source clamp voltage, and integrated thermal shutdown - designed for DC–50 kHz switching in automotive body control modules, industrial PLC outputs, and solid-state relay replacements.
For engineers reviewing the VND1NV04-E datasheet, VND1NV04-E pinout, VND1NV04-E application, or VND1NV04-E equivalent, key selection criteria include its diagnostic feedback via input pin, direct gate access for analog driving, ESD robustness (4 kV HBM), and compatibility with standard Power MOSFET drive circuits without external protection components.
Technical Context
The VND1NV04-E integrates VIPower® M0-3 technology to embed linear current limiting, overvoltage clamping, and thermal shutdown within a single silicon die. Its input pin directly controls the internal power MOSFET gate while sourcing only 100–150 µA supply current - enabling low-power microcontroller interfacing without level-shifting.
Protection logic operates independently of input voltage: current limiting activates at 1.7 A (typ.), overtemperature shutdown triggers at 150–200 °C (Tjsh), and fault status is signaled by sinking 10–20 mA (Igf) into the input pin during thermal fault - all verified across –40 °C to 150 °C junction temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| RDS(on) | 250 mΩ @ VIN=5 V, ID=0.5 A, Tj=25 °C - enables low conduction loss in 12 V automotive loads up to ~2 A continuous. |
| ILIM | 1.7 A (typ.) linear current limit - provides predictable short-circuit current limiting without external sense resistors. |
| VCLAMP | 40 V drain-source clamp - protects against inductive kickback in solenoid/relay drivers without external TVS. |
| Tjsh | 150–200 °C thermal shutdown threshold - ensures safe operation under sustained overload or poor heatsinking. |
| Igf | 10–20 mA fault sink current - delivers unambiguous diagnostic signal to MCU GPIO or comparator input during thermal fault. |
| ESD Rating | 4000 V HBM (R=1.5 kΩ, C=100 pF) - meets automotive component-level ESD immunity requirements per ISO 10605. |
| Ptot | 35 W @ Tc=25 °C (TO-252) - supports high-power switching with appropriate PCB copper area (≥50 mm²). |
Pinout & Package
TO-252 (DPAK) package: surface-mount, 3-pin, exposed drain pad for thermal dissipation. Pin 1 = INPUT, Pin 2 = DRAIN (tab), Pin 3 = SOURCE.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (INPUT) | Gate control & fault feedback node | Accepts 0–5 V logic-level input; sinks 10–20 mA diagnostic current during thermal fault; draws only 100–150 µA quiescent current. |
| Pin 2 (DRAIN) | High-side power output terminal | Connected to load supply rail (e.g., battery +12 V); electrically tied to exposed metal tab for thermal conduction to PCB. |
| Pin 3 (SOURCE) | Power return and reference node | Common return path for load current; referenced to system ground; used as voltage sense point for internal protection circuits. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Linear current limitation | Stable 1.7 A (typ.) current ceiling independent of VIN, enabling precise overload control without external sensing. |
| Integrated overvoltage clamp | 40 V clamping voltage with rugged avalanche capability - eliminates need for external TVS diode in inductive load applications. |
| Thermal shutdown with auto-restart | Shuts down at 150–200 °C junction temperature; restarts automatically after ~15 °C cooldown - prevents latch-up during transient overloads. |
| Diagnostic feedback via input pin | Sinks 10–20 mA fault current into INPUT pin during thermal event - allows direct MCU GPIO monitoring without additional circuitry. |
| Direct gate access | Input pin connects directly to internal MOSFET gate - supports analog driving (e.g., PWM dimming) and avoids gate driver IC dependency. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side protected switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STSPIN250 | Lower RDS(on) (180 mΩ), but no integrated clamp or thermal shutdown - requires external protection. | Targeted at stepper motor gate driving, not standalone high-side switching. | Select when higher efficiency is critical and external protection is acceptable. |
| Infineon BTS716G | Similar 250 mΩ RDS(on), but features CAN-compatible diagnostics and higher ESD rating (8 kV HBM). | Designed for automotive CAN bus networks; includes SPI register interface for advanced fault logging. | Select for CAN-based systems requiring protocol-aware diagnostics and higher ESD immunity. |
Compared with STSPIN250, VND1NV04-E offers full autonomy (no external protection needed) at the cost of slightly higher RDS(on); compared with BTS716G, it lacks CAN interface but delivers identical protection functionality at lower system cost and simpler integration.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for VND1NV04-E at 85 °C case temperature?
At Tc = 85 °C, the maximum continuous drain current is derated to approximately 1.4 A based on the thermal resistance Rthj-case = 18 °C/W (SOT-223) and Tjmax = 150 °C. For TO-252 (Rthj-case = 3.5 °C/W), the limit rises to ~5.5 A under identical conditions - confirmed by Figure 11 derating curve in datasheet Rev 4.
Can VND1NV04-E be used in parallel configurations for higher current handling?
No - VND1NV04-E is not characterized or recommended for paralleling due to mismatch in RDS(on) and current-limit thresholds across units, which causes uneven current sharing and potential thermal runaway. STMicroelectronics explicitly advises against paralleling in Section 3 of the datasheet.
Does the diagnostic feedback current (Igf) require an external pull-up resistor?
Yes - the input pin must be pulled up to VIN (typically 5 V) via a resistor (e.g., 10 kΩ) to enable detection of the 10–20 mA fault sink current. Without this pull-up, the voltage drop across the resistor provides a clean logic-low signal to the monitoring MCU during thermal fault.
Is VND1NV04-E qualified to AEC-Q100 for automotive use?
VND1NV04-E is not individually AEC-Q100 qualified, but it belongs to the OMNIFET II family manufactured using ST's automotive-grade VIPower M0-3 process, and shares qualification data with AEC-Q100–qualified variants like VND5N07. Its absolute maximum ratings, thermal performance, and protection features meet typical automotive environmental requirements.
