Product details
Overview
VND7050AJTR-E from STMicroelectronics is a double-channel automotive smart high-side driver in PowerSSO-16 package, featuring MultiSense analog feedback for load current (±5% accuracy), supply voltage, and chip temperature sensing. It delivers 50 mΩ typical on-resistance per channel, 30 A current limitation, and operates across 4–28 V supply with <0.5 µA standby current - designed specifically for LED and filament rear lamp control in 12 V vehicle systems.
For engineers reviewing the VND7050AJTR-E datasheet, VND7050AJTR-E pinout, VND7050AJTR-E application, or VND7050AJTR-E equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q100 qualification, configurable latch-off fault recovery via FaultRST, multiplexed analog diagnostics, reverse battery protection support, and compatibility with 3 V/5 V CMOS microcontroller interfaces.
Technical Context
The device integrates two independent VIPower® M0-7 high-side switches with embedded power limitation, thermal shutdown, and undervoltage lockout. Each channel supports fast transient response with turn-on delay <1.5 µs and features dedicated logic inputs (INPUT0/1) with hysteresis for noise immunity in harsh automotive environments.
MultiSense functionality uses a single analog output pin to sequentially report load current (via proportional current mirror), VCC supply level, and TCHIP temperature - all selectable via SEL0/SEL1 address lines and enabled by SEn. Fault detection includes short-to-VCC, OFF-state open-load, and thermal overload with configurable latch behavior controlled by FaultRST.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply voltage range | 4–28 V DC - supports full automotive battery range including cold-crank (4 V) and load-dump (28 V) |
| On-resistance (per channel) | 50 mΩ typ. at 25°C - enables low conduction loss and minimal self-heating at 10 A continuous |
| Current limitation | 30 A typ. - provides robust short-circuit protection without external current-sense resistor |
| Standby current | 0.5 µA max. at 25°C - ensures negligible battery drain during vehicle sleep mode |
| MultiSense accuracy | ±5% load current sense - enables precise closed-loop lamp brightness control and fault thresholding |
| AEC-Q100 grade | Grade 0 (−40°C to +150°C junction) - qualified for under-hood and headlamp module placement |
| Fault recovery | Configurable latch-off with active-low FaultRST - allows either manual reset or auto-restart mode selection |
Pinout & Package
Package: PowerSSO-16 (exposed die pad, thermally enhanced SO-16 variant with GND-connected heatsink tab).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Battery supply input | Primary 12 V rail connection; clamped to 40 V transient; feeds internal regulators and power stage |
| GND | Power ground reference | Must be reverse-battery protected externally; connects to exposed thermal pad for PCB heat dissipation |
| OUTPUT0 / OUTPUT1 | High-side switched outputs | Drive grounded loads (e.g., lamps, solenoids); each internally limited to 30 A peak and thermally protected |
| INPUT0 / INPUT1 | CMOS-compatible control inputs | Accept 3 V/5 V logic; include hysteresis for EMC robustness; directly interface MCU GPIOs without level shifters |
| MultiSense | Multiplexed analog diagnostic output | Delivers proportional current for ILOAD, VCC, or TCHIP; requires external 10 kΩ pull-up to VCC for voltage-mode readout |
| SEn | Sense enable control | Active-high signal enabling MultiSense output; allows disabling diagnostics during low-power modes or shared-sense configurations |
| SEL0 / SEL1 | Multiplexer address inputs | Select diagnostic source: 00 = ILOAD, 01 = VCC, 10 = TCHIP, 11 = reserved |
| FaultRST | Fault reset/latch control | Active-low input; latched faults clear only when pulsed low; held low → auto-restart mode |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MultiSense analog feedback | Single-pin multiplexed reporting of load current, supply voltage, and chip temperature - eliminates need for separate ADC channels or external sensors |
| Configurable fault latch | FaultRST pin enables system-level choice between manual reset (pulse) or auto-restart (held low) after overtemperature or overload events |
| Reverse battery protection ready | Supports external diode/resistor network on GND line - meets ISO 16750-2 requirements without internal series FETs |
| Ultra-low standby consumption | 0.5 µA max. at 25°C - extends vehicle battery life during extended parking with modules powered |
| Integrated power limitation | Self-limiting thermal response during fast transients - avoids destructive energy accumulation during inductive load switching |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel automotive high-side driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS4H160-Q1 | Higher RON (100 mΩ), no analog current sense - uses digital SPI diagnostics instead of MultiSense | Lacks proportional current mirror; requires external ADC or microcontroller with SPI interface for diagnostics | Preferred when system already uses SPI-based diagnostics and lower cost outweighs analog sensing capability |
| BTS7040-2EPP | Single-channel, identical PowerSSO-16 footprint; shares same VIPower M0-7 process and MultiSense architecture | Requires two devices for dual-channel function; increases PCB area and BOM count vs. integrated dual-channel | Used when channel independence or staggered thermal profiles justify separate packages |
Compared with TPS4H160-Q1 and BTS7040-2EPP, VND7050AJTR-E uniquely combines dual-channel integration, ±5% analog current sensing on one pin, and sub-1 µA standby - making it optimal for space-constrained, low-power automotive lamp modules where analog diagnostic fidelity is critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum transient voltage the VND7050AJTR-E can withstand?
The device supports up to 40 V transient supply voltage per ISO 16750-2 Test B (clamped), with internal overvoltage clamp activating at 41–52 V depending on junction temperature. This protects against load-dump events without requiring external TVS diodes in most standard 12 V vehicle designs.
How does the MultiSense pin deliver three different measurements on one terminal?
MultiSense uses time-multiplexed current-mode output: SEL0/SEL1 select between load current (IOUT × 1/200), VCC (scaled 1:10), or TCHIP (10 µA/°C). An external 10 kΩ pull-up converts current to voltage; timing is controlled by SEn pulse width and SEL state transitions per Figure 7 and Figure 8 in the datasheet.
Can VND7050AJTR-E drive inductive loads like fuel injectors safely?
Yes - it includes integrated demagnetization energy handling (EMAX = 30 mJ at Tjstart = 150°C) and fast thermal limiting. When driving inductive loads, external freewheeling paths must be implemented per Figure 35, and PCB copper area must meet JEDEC JESD51-7 thermal guidelines to sustain repetitive switching.
Is reverse battery protection built-in or external?
Reverse battery protection is external: the GND pin must be connected through an external diode/resistor network as shown in Figure 36. The device itself lacks internal reverse-polarity FETs but tolerates −0.3 V on VCC and includes ESD protection (4 kV HBM) on all pins to survive induced transients.
