Product details
Overview
VND3NV0413TR from STMicroelectronics is a fully autoprotected VIPower™ M0-3 monolithic high-side Power MOSFET switch with integrated linear current limiting (Ilim = 3.5 A typ.), overvoltage clamp (VCLAMP = 40 V), thermal shutdown (Tjsh = 150–200 °C), and diagnostic feedback via input pin. It replaces standard discrete MOSFETs in DC–50 kHz industrial load switching, including solenoid, relay, and lamp drivers.
For engineers reviewing the VND3NV0413TR datasheet, VND3NV0413TR pinout, VND3NV0413TR application, or VND3NV0413TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 120 mΩ RDS(on) at VIN = 5 V/ID = 1.5 A, 35 W power dissipation in TO-252 (DPAK), fault-sink current capability (Igf = 10–20 mA), and compatibility with TTL-level drive without external gate resistors.
Technical Context
This device integrates a Power MOSFET with analog gate control, linear current limiter, overtemperature sensing, and bidirectional input clamp (±1.0 to +6.8 V). Its internal gate driver enables direct TTL/CMOS interfacing while drawing only 100–150 µA supply current (IISS) during normal operation.
The protection architecture operates independently of input voltage: current limiting activates at Ilim ≥ 3.5 A regardless of VIN, thermal shutdown triggers at junction temperatures between 150–200 °C, and overvoltage clamping engages at VDS ≥ 40 V - all verified under -40 °C to +150 °C operating range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| RDS(on) | 120 mΩ max at VIN = 5 V, ID = 1.5 A, Tj = 25 °C - ensures low conduction loss in 12 V industrial loads up to 3.5 A. |
| Ilim | 3.5 A typ. (5 A max) linear current limit - prevents destructive overcurrent without external sensing or shunt resistors. |
| VCLAMP | 40 V min clamp voltage - protects against inductive kickback in relay/solenoid switching with unclamped energy up to 100 mJ. |
| Tjsh | 150–200 °C thermal shutdown threshold - provides robust overtemperature protection for enclosed or high-ambient environments. |
| Igf | 10–20 mA fault sink current - enables active fault signaling to microcontroller GPIO without additional circuitry. |
| Ptot | 35 W at Tc = 25 °C in TO-252 package - supports continuous operation with moderate heatsinking in motor control modules. |
| Rthj-case | 3.5 °C/W max junction-to-case thermal resistance - confirms efficient heat transfer to PCB copper or external heatsink. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-252 (DPAK), surface-mount, 3-terminal, exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - DRAIN | Main power output terminal | Connected internally to MOSFET drain and exposed metal pad; carries full load current and dissipates heat directly to PCB copper. |
| 2 - INPUT | Logic-level gate control & fault feedback | Accepts TTL/CMOS-compatible input (0.5–2.5 V threshold); sinks 10–20 mA diagnostic current during thermal fault. |
| 3 - SOURCE | Power return path & reference node | Internally tied to MOSFET source; serves as common ground reference for load return and input biasing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated linear current limiter | Enables precise 3.5 A current regulation without external sense resistor or op-amp feedback loop. |
| Thermal shutdown with auto-restart | Shuts off at 150–200 °C junction temperature and resumes operation after ~15 °C cooldown - eliminates manual reset requirement. |
| Overvoltage clamp with avalanche ruggedness | Clamps VDS to 40 V minimum and withstands 100 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - suitable for unclamped inductive loads. |
| Diagnostic feedback via input pin | Provides real-time fault indication through controlled current sink (Igf) on same pin used for control - reduces BOM count and PCB footprint. |
| TTL/CMOS-compatible drive | Operates with 5 V logic without level-shifting or gate driver IC - simplifies interface with microcontrollers and FPGAs. |
Applications
| Industrial Solenoid Control | Automotive Lamp Driver |

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 | Integrated stepper motor driver with dual half-bridge; no linear current limit or diagnostic feedback on input pin. | Designed for bipolar stepper control, not general-purpose high-side switching. | Select when driving 2-phase stepper motors; avoid for simple on/off load control. |
| VND5E025AKTR-E | Lower RDS(on) (25 mΩ), higher Ilim (14 A), but requires external enable and fault pins - no diagnostic feedback on input. | Targeted at automotive body electronics with ASIL-B compliance; larger SO-8 package. | Choose for higher-current automotive applications where separate fault signaling is acceptable and board space permits SO-8. |
Compared with VND5E025AKTR-E, VND3NV0413TR offers simpler single-pin control and fault reporting but lower current rating; versus STSPIN250, it delivers dedicated high-side switching without motor-specific logic or timing constraints.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for VND3NV0413TR?
The device features a linear current limit of 3.5 A typical (5 A maximum) under VIN = 5 V and VDS = 13 V conditions. Continuous operation at this level depends on PCB thermal design: with 50 mm² of 35 µm copper connected to the drain pad, junction temperature remains within safe limits up to 35 W dissipation at Tc = 25 °C.
Does VND3NV0413TR require an external freewheeling diode?
No. The integrated overvoltage clamp (VCLAMP = 40 V min) and rugged avalanche capability (EAS = 100 mJ) allow safe operation with inductive loads such as solenoids and relays without an external flyback diode. This is confirmed in Figure 6 and Section 3 of the datasheet under unclamped inductive load testing.
How does fault feedback work on the INPUT pin?
During thermal shutdown, the device actively sinks 10–20 mA (Igf) through the INPUT pin. If driven by a low-impedance source (e.g., MCU GPIO), this pulls the pin voltage down, signaling fault. If the source impedance is high (>10 kΩ), the pin falls to 0 V - a detectable logic-low state usable for fault logging without additional circuitry.
Can VND3NV0413TR be used with 3.3 V logic?
Yes. Input threshold voltage (VINTH) is specified from 0.5 V to 2.5 V, making it compatible with 3.3 V CMOS outputs. However, RDS(on) increases slightly at lower VIN; at VIN = 3.3 V, RDS(on) rises to ~240 mΩ (max), which must be accounted for in thermal design for loads above 1.5 A.
