Product details
Overview
VND670SP13TR from STMicroelectronics is a dual high-side switch with integrated gate drivers for full-bridge motor control, featuring two 30 mΩ on-resistance high-side Power MOSFETs, 15 A continuous output current per channel, 40 V supply voltage rating, and PWM operation up to 10 kHz - used in automotive seat/mirror actuators and industrial valve drivers.
For engineers reviewing the VND670SP13TR datasheet, VND670SP13TR pinout, VND670SP13TR application, or VND670SP13TR equivalent, key selection criteria include thermal shutdown behavior, cross-conduction protection timing, external MOSFET gate drive capability, and diagnostic feedback via DIAGA/ENA and DIAGB/ENB pins.
Technical Context
The device implements a monolithic VIPower M0-3 architecture with dual independent high-side switches and dedicated gate drivers for external low-side MOSFETs. Each channel provides undervoltage (5.5 V) and overvoltage (36–43 V) shutdown, current limiting (30–45 A), and thermal shutdown at 150–200 °C junction temperature.
Logic inputs (INA/INB) control bridge states (clockwise, counter-clockwise, brake), while DIAGA/ENA and DIAGB/ENB serve dual-purpose as enable inputs or fault-reporting outputs. The PWM pin enables synchronized turn-off of both gate drivers and supports test-mode load continuity verification at −2 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| RDS(on) | 30 mΩ per channel - ensures ≤0.54 W conduction loss at 12 A, enabling compact thermal design |
| IOUT (continuous) | 15 A per channel - supports DC motor loads up to ~180 W at 12 V without external heatsinking |
| VCC range | 5.5–36 V - compatible with 12 V automotive battery systems including cold-crank (5.5 V) and load-dump (36 V) |
| Thermal resistance (j-case) | 1.4 °C/W - allows >10 W power dissipation with ≤14 °C rise above case temperature |
| Switching dead time (tdel) | 600–1800 µs - prevents shoot-through during external MOSFET commutation in H-bridge |
| Diagnostic clamp voltage | 0.4 V low-level output - provides unambiguous fault signaling to microcontroller GPIO with noise margin |
| PWM frequency max | 10 kHz - supports smooth torque control in brushed DC motors without audible switching noise |
Pinout & Package
Supplied in PowerSO-10 package: thermally enhanced 10-pin surface-mount package with exposed die pad for direct PCB heat sinking; footprint matches JEDEC MO-187AB standard.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUTA) | High-side output A | Drives one terminal of motor/load; rated for 15 A continuous, 40 V max, short-to-battery protected |
| 2 (OUTB) | High-side output B | Drives second motor terminal; identical specs to OUTA; enables full-bridge bidirectional control |
| 3 (GND) | Power ground reference | Low-impedance return path for internal current sensing and thermal monitoring; must be routed short to MOSFET sources |
| 4 (GATEB) | Low-side gate driver B | Provides 5–8.5 V gate drive to external N-channel MOSFET; includes 6–8 V clamp for safe turn-off |
| 5 (GATEA) | Low-side gate driver A | Symmetric to GATEB; drives complementary low-side MOSFET; supports dead-time-controlled PWM |
| 6 (VCC) | Supply input | 40 V absolute max; powers internal logic, drivers, and protection circuits; includes UVLO and OVLO |
| 7 (INA) | Bridge control input A | 5 V logic-compatible; selects direction/brake state with INB; hysteresis ensures noise immunity |
| 8 (INB) | Bridge control input B | Paired with INA; truth table defines 6 operational modes including half-bridge disable and standby |
| 9 (DIAGA/ENA) | Dual-function pin A | Configurable as enable input (pull-high) or open-drain fault indicator (0.4 V low); reports overtemp/short |
| 10 (DIAGB/ENB) | Dual-function pin B | Identical functionality to pin 9; enables independent monitoring and disabling of each half-bridge |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Reverse battery protection | Withstands −15 V reverse polarity without damage - eliminates need for external series diode in automotive VCC line |
| Cross-conduction protection | Hardware-enforced dead time (600–1800 µs) prevents simultaneous high/low-side conduction in external MOSFETs |
| Short-to-battery protection | Clamps output voltage to VCC−41 V during external MOSFET saturation - protects low-side devices from avalanche failure |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual high-side switch with external gate drive applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STSPIN840 | Integrated low-side MOSFETs; no external gate drive outputs; 2.8–45 V supply; 2.5 A max output | Targeted at lower-current stepper/servo drives; lacks diagnostic pin flexibility and high-current capability | Select when board space is critical and load current ≤2.5 A; not suitable for 15 A motor loads. |
| TPS2814 | Dual non-inverting gate driver only; no high-side switches, no protection, no diagnostics; 4–14 V supply | Requires external high/low-side MOSFETs and protection circuitry; intended for custom power stage designs | Select when full control over MOSFET selection and layout is required; adds design complexity and BOM cost. |
Compared with STSPIN840, VND670SP13TR delivers 6× higher current and integrated diagnostics; compared with TPS2814, it reduces system-level component count by embedding high-side switches and protections - making it optimal for automotive-grade 12 V H-bridge motor control where reliability and integration are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature before thermal shutdown activates?
Thermal shutdown triggers between 150 °C and 200 °C, with typical activation at 170 °C. The device remains latched off until junction temperature falls below hysteresis threshold (~20 °C below trip point), ensuring safe cooldown before automatic recovery. This behavior is verified per Table 7 in the datasheet under TTSD parameter.
Can VND670SP13TR drive inductive loads without external freewheeling diodes?
Yes - the device includes internal overvoltage clamp circuitry that limits output voltage to VCC−41 V during inductive kickback, protecting external low-side MOSFETs from avalanche breakdown. However, external RC snubbers are still recommended for high-energy loads to reduce EMI and stress on the clamp network.
How does the DIAGA/ENA pin function during normal vs. fault conditions?
In normal operation, DIAGA/ENA acts as an enable input requiring external pull-up; during fault detection (overtemp, short-to-battery), it becomes an open-drain output pulled to 0.4 V to signal the fault. The pin retains latched-off state until the corresponding input (INA or INB) transitions from low to high, resetting the fault condition.
Is VND670SP13TR qualified for automotive applications per AEC-Q100?
No - the VND670SP13TR is not AEC-Q100 qualified. It is designed for industrial and automotive *derivative* applications but lacks formal qualification. For AEC-Q100 Grade 1 compliance, ST recommends the pin-compatible VND7050AJTR-E, which shares the same PowerSO-10 package and functional architecture with extended qualification testing.
