Product details
Overview
VND5E050ACKTR-E from STMicroelectronics is a double-channel high-side driver IC for 12 V automotive grounded loads, featuring integrated analog current sense per channel, 50 mΩ typical on-resistance, 27 A current limitation, and CMOS-compatible 3.0 V/5.0 V inputs. It delivers diagnostic feedback (open-load, short-to-VCC, overtemperature, overload) and protection (undervoltage shutdown, overvoltage clamp, reverse-battery tolerance) in PowerSSO-24 package.
For engineers reviewing the VND5E050ACKTR-E datasheet, VND5E050ACKTR-E pinout, VND5E050ACKTR-E application, or VND5E050ACKTR-E equivalent, key selection criteria include per-channel current sense ratio (2250 typ), thermal shutdown auto-restart behavior, PowerSSO-24 thermal resistance (2.7 °C/W junction-to-case), and compatibility with automotive microcontroller I/Os under load dump and ESD stress.
Technical Context
This device implements two independent VIPower® M0-5 high-side switches with active power limitation for inrush and overload management, each with dedicated analog current sense output (K₀ = 2250 typ) and configurable disable via CS_DIS. Diagnostics include off-state open-load detection, short-to-VCC indication, and thermal shutdown with 150 °C trip and 135 °C reset thresholds.
Protection architecture integrates undervoltage lockout (VUSD = 4.5 V typ), overvoltage clamp (41–52 V), self-limiting fast thermal transients, and reverse-battery resilience via external GND network. The PowerSSO-24 package enables dual-channel operation with shared thermal path and low-inductance layout for automotive EMC compliance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Max supply voltage | 41 V - withstands automotive load dump transients without external clamping |
| Operating voltage range | 4.5 V to 28 V - supports cold-crank (4.5 V) and battery float (28 V) conditions |
| On-resistance (per ch.) | 50 mΩ typ at 25°C - limits conduction loss to ≤100 mW at 1.4 A continuous load |
| Current limit (typ) | 27 A - sustains short-circuit events while limiting peak power dissipation |
| Standby current | 2 µA typ - enables always-on modules without battery drain |
| Current sense ratio | 2250 typ (IOUT/ISENSE) - provides 0.444 mA sense current per 1 A load for precision ADC interfacing |
| Thermal shutdown | 150 °C trip, 135 °C reset - enables auto-recovery after transient overloads without MCU intervention |
Pinout & Package
Package: PowerSSO-24 (exposed thermal pad connected to VCC, RoHS-compliant, ECOPACK®).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Battery supply input | Primary power rail; connects to exposed thermal pad for enhanced heat dissipation |
| GND | Ground reference | Must be protected against reverse battery via external diode/resistor network per datasheet Figure 31 |
| INPUT1 / INPUT2 | CMOS-compatible control inputs | 3.0 V/5.0 V logic compatible; 0.9 V low / 2.1 V high thresholds with 0.25 V hysteresis |
| OUTPUT1 / OUTPUT2 | High-side power outputs | Drive grounded resistive/inductive/capacitive loads; integrate reverse-battery diode (VF = 0.7 V @ 4 A) |
| CURRENT SENSE1 / CURRENT SENSE2 | Analog current monitor outputs | Deliver proportional current (ISENSE = IOUT/2250) for real-time load monitoring and fault classification |
| CS_DIS | Current sense enable/disable | Active-high CMOS input; disables both sense channels when pulled ≥2.1 V, enabling shared external sense resistor |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Inrush current management | Active power limitation prevents fuse blowing during capacitive load turn-on without external circuitry |
| Off-state open-load detection | Validated across full VCC (8–18 V) and temperature (-40 to 150 °C) range using internal bias current |
| Short-to-VCC diagnosis | Detects output shorted to battery during both on- and off-states via dedicated sensing path |
| EMC-optimized switching | Controlled dV/dt (see Figures 26/28) and layout-optimized PowerSSO-24 reduce radiated emissions in 12 V systems |
| Reverse battery protection | Withstands -0.3 V VCC and -200 mA GND current; requires external GND network per Section 3.1 |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| VND5E025AKTR-E | Lower RON (25 mΩ), lower ILIMH (18 A), same PowerSSO-24 package | Better for high-efficiency, lower-current (<10 A) loads; reduced thermal margin at 27 A | Select when conduction loss dominates over fault robustness |
| TPS2HB50-Q1 | Single-channel, 50 mΩ RON, no analog current sense (digital fault flags only), HTSSOP-20 | Lacks per-channel analog diagnostics; requires external ADC for current measurement | Select when space-constrained PCBs prioritize channel count over diagnostic granularity |
Compared with VND5E050ACKTR-E, the VND5E025AKTR-E trades higher short-circuit robustness for lower conduction loss, while the TPS2HB50-Q1 reduces integration depth to fit tighter layouts but removes analog current visibility-critical for predictive maintenance in BCMs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current per channel?
The VND5E050ACKTR-E does not specify a continuous current rating due to thermal dependence on PCB copper area and airflow. At 25°C ambient with 100 cm² copper pour and free air, it supports ~5.5 A continuous per channel before thermal shutdown activates. Derating curves in Figure 36 confirm 3.2 A at 85°C ambient under identical conditions.
How does the current sense function behave during thermal shutdown?
During thermal shutdown, the current sense output remains active and proportional to actual load current until junction temperature exceeds 175°C (absolute max). The sense ratio drift stays within ±5% across -40°C to 150°C, enabling valid fault classification even during thermal limiting events.
Can CS_DIS be left floating?
No. Table 2 explicitly prohibits floating CS_DIS: it must be pulled to ground via a 10 kΩ resistor if unused. Floating causes undefined sense channel behavior and may trigger false diagnostics due to noise coupling on the high-impedance CMOS input.
Is reverse-battery protection internal or external?
Reverse-battery protection is partially internal (withstands -0.3 V VCC and -200 mA GND current) but requires an external GND protection network-either a series resistor (RGND) or diode (DGND)-to meet ISO 16750-2 requirements. Section 3.1 details both validated configurations.
