Product details

Overview

VND5160JTR-E from STMicroelectronics is a dual-channel high-side driver IC for automotive power distribution, featuring 160 mΩ on-state resistance per channel, 5 A typical current limitation, and operation across 4.5–36 V supply range. It integrates open-load detection in both ON/OFF states, thermal shutdown with auto-restart, reverse battery protection, and ISO7637-2-compliant transient immunity - deployed in body control modules for driving solenoids, lamps, and valves.

For engineers reviewing the VND5160JTR-E datasheet, VND5160JTR-E pinout, VND5160JTR-E application, or VND5160JTR-E equivalent, key selection criteria include diagnostic status pin behavior (open-drain, STAT_DIS controllable), dual-channel independent fault reporting, load dump clamping at VCC−41 V, and PowerSSO-12™ package thermal performance under sustained 5 A loads.

Technical Context

This device implements two independent VIPower M0-5 high-side switches with integrated current limiting, thermal foldback, and bidirectional open-load sensing. Each channel features CMOS-compatible 3.0 V logic inputs with 0.25 V hysteresis and active inrush management via power-limited turn-on.

The STATUS pins provide real-time diagnostics including overtemperature (T_j ≥ 150 °C), output short-to-V_CC, and open-load conditions - all configurable via STAT_DIS to enable/disable pull-down functionality. Protection architecture includes undervoltage lockout (4.5 V threshold), V_CC clamp up to 52 V, and loss-of-ground/loss-of-V_CC resilience.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
Max supply voltage	41 V - withstands load-dump transients per ISO7637-2 Pulse 5b without external clamp
Operating voltage range	4.5 to 36 V - supports full automotive battery range including cold-crank (4.5 V) and alternator regulation (up to 36 V)
On-state resistance	160 mΩ @ 25°C - enables <1 W conduction loss at 2.5 A, critical for thermally constrained PCB layouts
Current limitation	5 A typical - self-limiting during short-circuit; reduces peak junction temperature rise during fault events
Off-state supply current	2 µA @ 25°C - minimizes parasitic drain on vehicle battery during sleep mode
Thermal shutdown threshold	150 °C - triggers automatic restart after cooling to ~135 °C, enabling fault recovery without MCU intervention
Open-load detection	Valid in both ON (≥10 mA threshold) and OFF (V_OUT > 2 V) states - eliminates need for external sense resistors

Pinout & Package

Delivered in PowerSSO-12™ package: exposed die-pad soldered to PCB ground plane for enhanced thermal dissipation (R_thj-case = 8 °C/W max with one channel active). 12-pin surface-mount outline with integrated heat sink tab connected internally to V_CC.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
VCC	Battery supply input	Clamped to 52 V; powers internal circuitry and provides reference for output stage; connects to exposed thermal pad
GND	Ground reference	Must be protected externally against reverse battery (diode/resistor network per Figure 28); shared return for both channels
INPUT1 / INPUT2	CMOS logic control inputs	3.0 V compatible with 0.25 V hysteresis; drive high-side switches directly from MCU GPIOs
OUTPUT1 / OUTPUT2	High-side power outputs	Each drives one side of resistive/inductive/capacitive load; other side tied to GND
STATUS1 / STATUS2	Open-drain diagnostic outputs	Report faults per channel; pulled low during overtemp, open-load, or short-to-V_CC; disabled when STAT_DIS = high
STAT_DIS	Status disable control	Active-high CMOS input; places STATUS pins in high-impedance state to reduce system-level contention

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Inrush current active management	Power-limited turn-on prevents voltage droop and EMI spikes during capacitive load switching
On-state open-load detection	Detects disconnected loads with ≥10 mA threshold while output is active - no external components required
Reverse battery protection support	Compatible with external diode/resistor GND network (Figure 28) to survive −14 V transients
ISO7637-2 transient immunity	Class C performance across all pulses (including Pulse 5b at +87 V) - validated without external TVS
Thermal shutdown with auto-restart	Re-enables output automatically after junction cools below 135 °C - maintains system availability during intermittent overload

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side driver applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
TPS4H160-Q1	Single-channel, 160 mΩ R_ON, 4.5–36 V, but lacks off-state open-load detection and STAT_DIS control	Requires external circuitry for bidirectional diagnostics; suitable only where single-channel isolation is acceptable	Select when board space is constrained and diagnostic depth can be reduced to ON-state only
BTS716G	Single-channel, 100 mΩ R_ON, 4.5–28 V, includes current sense analog output but no V_CC clamp above 40 V	Cannot withstand ISO7637-2 Pulse 5b without external TVS; limited to 28 V nominal systems	Prefer for cost-sensitive 12 V-only applications requiring analog current feedback over digital diagnostics

Compared with VND5160JTR-E, TPS4H160-Q1 trades dual-channel integration and comprehensive diagnostics for smaller footprint, while BTS716G offers lower R_ON but sacrifices transient robustness and diagnostic completeness - making VND5160JTR-E optimal for safety-critical dual-load automotive nodes requiring full fault visibility.

FAQ

What is the function of the STAT_DIS pin?

The STAT_DIS pin is an active-high CMOS input that places the STATUS1 and STATUS2 pins into high-impedance state when driven high. This allows multiple VND5160JTR-E devices to share a common diagnostic bus without contention. When STAT_DIS is low or floating, STATUS pins operate normally as open-drain outputs reporting faults per channel.

How does open-load detection work in the OFF state?

In OFF state, open-load detection triggers when V_OUT exceeds 2–4 V (per Table 10), indicating no current path to ground. The device monitors output voltage via internal comparators and asserts STATUS low after a 200–1000 µs delay (t_POL). This works without external biasing and remains valid across −40 °C to +150 °C junction temperature.

Can VND5160JTR-E drive inductive loads like fuel injectors?

Yes - it is explicitly characterized for inductive loads up to 33 mJ demagnetization energy (L = 12 mH, V_BAT = 13.5 V). The integrated V_CC clamp and fast turn-off (<15 µs) suppress flyback spikes, while current limitation and thermal shutdown protect during stalled or shorted conditions.

What thermal derating applies at 100°C case temperature?

At T_case = 100 °C, R_ON increases to ~260 mΩ (per Figure 17), reducing maximum continuous current to ~3.9 A before reaching thermal limit. Derated current limitation (I_LIML) drops to 2 A during thermal cycling, ensuring safe power dissipation even under sustained overload.
