Product details

Overview

VND5E012MY-E from STMicroelectronics is a dual-channel automotive high-side driver in PowerSSO-36 package, integrating analog current sense per channel, 12 mΩ on-state resistance (typ.), 74 A current limitation (typ.), and CMOS-compatible 3.0 V inputs. It drives grounded resistive/inductive/capacitive loads in 12 V systems with real-time diagnostics and protection including overtemperature auto-restart, reverse battery protection, and load-dump immunity.

For engineers reviewing the VND5E012MY-E datasheet, VND5E012MY-E pinout, VND5E012MY-E application, or VND5E012MY-E equivalent, key selection criteria include channel independence, ±8% current sense ratio drift over temperature, thermal shutdown hysteresis of 7°C, and compliance with AEC-Q100 Grade 0 (–40°C to +150°C junction).

Technical Context

The device implements two independent VIPower® M0-5 high-side switches with integrated power limitation for inrush and overload management, each featuring dedicated analog current sense (CS1/CS2) delivering proportional output current with 4155–7770 A/A gain range. Protection logic combines undervoltage lockout (4.5 V threshold), overvoltage clamp (41–52 V), and thermal shutdown at 150–200°C with 135°C reset point.

Diagnostic functions are enabled via CS_DIS pin: pulling high disables both current sense channels, allowing shared external sense resistor topology. Input hysteresis (0.25 V) and ESD robustness (5 kV HBM on VCC/output, 4 kV on inputs) ensure noise immunity in harsh automotive environments.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
Max supply voltage	41 V transient (400 ms), enabling robust load-dump survival per ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a.
On-state resistance	11 mΩ typ. @ 25°C, ensuring <25 mV output drop at 0.4 A for precision low-current sensing.
Current limit	74 A typ. @ 13 V, supporting high-power solenoid and lamp loads without external limiting.
Current sense accuracy	±8% max ratio drift over –40°C to +150°C, enabling reliable fault detection across full automotive temperature range.
Thermal shutdown	150°C trip with 7°C hysteresis and auto-restart, preventing latch-up during intermittent overload events.
Input compatibility	3.0 V CMOS logic interface with 0.9 V / 2.1 V thresholds and 0.25 V hysteresis, compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V microcontrollers.
Reverse battery protection	Self-activating MOSFET clamping at –13 V, eliminating need for external diode in battery-reversal scenarios.

Pinout & Package

Package: PowerSSO-36 - thermally enhanced exposed-pad surface-mount package with 36 terminals, optimized for high-power dissipation in automotive PCBs (R_thj-case = 2°C/W max with one channel active).

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
VCC	Battery supply input	Primary 12 V rail connection; supports 4.5–28 V operation and 41 V transients.
GND	Power ground reference	Common return path for load current, sense circuitry, and internal protection logic.
OUT1, OUT2	High-side power outputs	Independent switched 12 V outputs driving grounded loads; each rated for 74 A short-circuit current.
IN1, IN2	CMOS-compatible control inputs	Enable/disable respective channel; 0.9 V / 2.1 V logic thresholds with 0.25 V hysteresis.
CS1, CS2	Analog current sense outputs	Current-source outputs proportional to load current (K = 4155–7770 A/A); require external sense resistor.
CS_DIS	Current sense disable control	Active-high CMOS input disabling both CS1/CS2; enables shared sense resistor architecture.

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Inrush current management	Active power limitation prevents voltage sag during cold-cranking by dynamically capping peak current.
Low standby current	2 µA off-state supply current minimizes battery drain in always-on vehicle modules.
Enhanced EMC performance	Optimized switching slope (dV/dt) and layout reduce radiated emissions, easing CISPR 25 Class 5 compliance.
Loss-of-ground protection	Detects open GND connection and shuts down output to prevent uncontrolled load activation.
Electrostatic discharge robustness	5 kV HBM on VCC/output pins ensures reliability during assembly and service handling.

Equivalent & Alternatives

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

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
VND5E025MY-E	Higher R_ON (25 mΩ typ.), lower I_LIMH (45 A typ.), same PowerSSO-36 package and pinout.	Better suited for lower-power loads (e.g., HVAC dampers) where thermal margin exceeds requirement.	Select when cost sensitivity outweighs need for 74 A capability and lower conduction loss is not critical.
TPS4H160-Q1	Single-channel, 160 mΩ R_ON, no analog current sense; uses digital SPI diagnostics instead of analog CS pins.	Requires external ADC and firmware parsing; lacks per-channel analog sense for fast overload detection.	Prefer when system-level diagnostics are centralized and board space allows multiple single-channel devices.

Compared with VND5E012MY-E, VND5E025MY-E trades conduction efficiency for cost and thermal simplicity, while TPS4H160-Q1 shifts diagnostic responsibility to host MCU-making VND5E012MY-E optimal for analog-centric, dual-output, high-current automotive nodes requiring minimal external components.

FAQ

What is the maximum allowable PCB copper area for thermal management in PowerSSO-36?

Per Figure 33 in the datasheet, R_thj-amb improves from 40°C/W (0 cm² copper) to 25°C/W with 100 cm² of 2 oz copper on the top layer connected to the exposed pad. For dual-channel 100% duty cycle operation, ≥50 cm² is recommended to maintain T_j ≤150°C at 28 V/5 A per channel.

Can CS1 and CS2 be used simultaneously with different external sense resistors?

Yes-CS1 and CS2 operate independently; each delivers a current proportional to its respective channel's load current. Using separate 10 kΩ resistors to ground yields ~0.5 V output at 5 A (K ≈ 5130 A/A), enabling simultaneous analog monitoring without cross-talk or calibration interaction.

How does the device respond to a sustained short-to-ground condition?

Under sustained short-to-GND, the device enters power limitation mode (I_LIMH = 74 A typ.), heats up, and triggers thermal shutdown at 150°C. After cooling to 135°C (7°C hysteresis), it auto-restarts-repeating this cycle until fault clears, preventing permanent damage while maintaining diagnostic visibility via CS output collapse.

Is reverse battery protection active during device power-up or only in steady state?

Reverse battery protection is inherent to the VIPower® M0-5 process and activates immediately upon –13 V applied to VCC, regardless of IN pin state or power sequencing. The internal MOSFET self-switches on to clamp reverse current, protecting downstream circuitry before any logic initialization occurs.
