Product details

Overview

VND1NV04TR-E from STMicroelectronics is a monolithic OMNIFET II fully autoprotected high-side Power MOSFET in TO-252 (DPAK) package, featuring 250 mΩ R_DS(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 lighting drivers.

For engineers reviewing the VND1NV04TR-E datasheet, VND1NV04TR-E pinout, VND1NV04TR-E application, or VND1NV04TR-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 MOSFET gate drive circuits without external protection components.

Technical Context

The device implements a VIPower® M0-3 process-based architecture integrating gate driver, linear current limiter, overvoltage clamp, and thermal sensing on a single die. Its input pin directly controls the power MOSFET gate while sourcing only 100–150 µA supply current, enabling low-power microcontroller interfacing.

Protection logic operates independently of input voltage: overtemperature shutdown triggers at 150–200 °C junction temperature, with automatic restart after ~15 °C hysteresis; short-circuit detection activates within 2.0 µs; fault condition is signaled by sinking 10–20 mA diagnostic current into the input pin.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
R_DS(on)	250 mΩ max at V_IN = 5 V, I_D = 0.5 A, T_j = 25 °C - enables low conduction loss in 12 V automotive loads up to ~2 A continuous.
I_LIMH	1.7 A typical current limit - provides predictable, non-destructive overload handling without external current-sense circuitry.
V_CLAMP	40 V drain-source clamp - suppresses inductive kickback in solenoid/relay drivers, eliminating need for external TVS diodes.
T_jsh	150–200 °C thermal shutdown threshold - protects against sustained overload or poor heatsinking in enclosed industrial enclosures.
I_gf	10–20 mA fault sink current - delivers unambiguous open-drain fault signal compatible with 3.3 V/5 V logic inputs.
E_AS	55 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - sustains repetitive inductive turn-off stress in motor commutation or valve control.
R_thj-case	3.5 °C/W (DPAK) - supports 35 W dissipation at T_c = 25 °C, enabling compact heatsink designs in space-constrained modules.

Pinout & Package

TO-252 (DPAK) package with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection; 3-pin configuration optimized for high-current PCB mounting and automated assembly.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
1 (INPUT)	Logic-level gate control & fault feedback node	Accepts 0–5 V logic input; sinks 10–20 mA diagnostic current during thermal fault; draws only 100–150 µA quiescent current.
2 (DRAIN)	Main power output terminal	Connected internally to exposed metal pad; carries full load current; requires copper pour for thermal management.
3 (SOURCE)	Power ground reference	Common return path for load current; referenced to system ground; used as voltage sense point for current-limiting circuit.

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Linear current limitation	Stable 1.7 A current limit independent of input voltage - eliminates risk of thermal runaway during short-circuit events.
Integrated overvoltage clamp	40 V clamping at 0.5 A - replaces external 36 V TVS diode in 12 V automotive applications, reducing BOM count.
Diagnostic feedback	Fault indication via input pin sink current - enables real-time health monitoring without additional sense resistors or ADC channels.
Direct gate access	Analog-compatible input pin - allows PWM dimming, soft-start ramping, or linear regulation without level-shifting circuitry.
ESD protection	4 kV HBM (1.5 kΩ/100 pF) - meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 3 for control board integration without extra ESD suppression.

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
STSPIN250TR	Lower R_DS(on) (120 mΩ), no integrated clamp, requires external TVS; 2.8–45 V supply range.	Targeted at stepper motor gate drivers, not standalone load switches; lacks diagnostic feedback.	Select when higher efficiency at >3 A is required and external protection is acceptable.
IPS1021HTR	Higher current limit (3.5 A), same 40 V clamp, but 5.5 V max input voltage vs. VND1NV04TR-E's 5 V tolerance.	Optimized for 24 V industrial systems; includes reverse polarity protection not present in VND1NV04TR-E.	Prefer for 24 V PLC outputs where reverse battery connection risk exists.

Compared with STSPIN250TR and IPS1021HTR, VND1NV04TR-E offers the best balance of diagnostic capability, 12 V system compatibility, and integrated clamp - making it optimal for cost-sensitive automotive and lighting applications where fault visibility and component count reduction are critical.

FAQ

What is the maximum continuous drain current for VND1NV04TR-E under typical PCB conditions?

At T_c = 25 °C with a standard FR4 board (50 mm² Cu pour), the device supports 7.5 A continuous drain current before thermal shutdown activates. Derating begins above 25 °C case temperature, reaching ~3.5 A at T_c = 85 °C per Figure 11 in the datasheet. Actual usable current depends on layout, airflow, and ambient temperature.

Can VND1NV04TR-E be used in parallel configurations for higher current handling?

No - the device lacks inherent current-sharing characteristics due to process variation in R_DS(on) and thermal coupling limitations. Parallel operation risks thermal runaway and uneven current distribution. For higher current, ST recommends the VND5N07TR-E (7 A rated) or discrete MOSFET solutions with external current balancing.

How does the diagnostic feedback signal behave during overtemperature fault?

When junction temperature exceeds T_jsh (150–200 °C), the device sinks 10–20 mA through the INPUT pin while maintaining zero output current. This current flows into the driving source (e.g., MCU GPIO), pulling the input voltage down - detectable as a logic-low fault flag without additional circuitry.

Is VND1NV04TR-E compliant with AEC-Q100 for automotive use?

No - VND1NV04TR-E is qualified to industrial grade (–40 °C to +150 °C operating junction temperature) but not AEC-Q100. For automotive-qualified equivalents, consider ST's VND7050AJTR-E (AEC-Q100 Grade 1) with similar protection features and 50 mΩ R_DS(on).
