Product details
Overview
VNQ810TR-E from STMicroelectronics is a quad-channel high-side driver IC fabricated in VIPower M0-3 technology, designed for automotive and industrial load switching where one side of the load connects to ground. It delivers 3.5A per channel, features 160mΩ on-state resistance at 25°C, integrated open-load detection (both ON/OFF states), short-circuit protection, and ±41V absolute maximum VCC rating. It is used in body control modules for driving lamps, solenoids, and relays.
For engineers reviewing the VNQ810TR-E datasheet, VNQ810TR-E pinout, VNQ810TR-E application, or VNQ810TR-E equivalent, key selection criteria include per-channel current limit (3.5A), thermal shutdown threshold (150°C), status pin diagnostics (open-load/overtemp/UV/OV), reverse battery protection capability, and SO-28 double-island package thermal performance under pulsed inductive loads.
Technical Context
The VNQ810TR-E integrates two independent VND810-E dies in a single SO-28 double-island package, enabling four fully isolated high-side switch channels with shared VCC/GND islands. Each channel implements active current limiting, thermal shutdown with 15°C hysteresis, and voltage clamping (VCC clamp, status clamp, output demagnetization clamp) compliant with ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1, 2a, 3a/b, 4, and 5.
It supports CMOS-compatible inputs (VIH = 3.25V, VIL = 1.25V), provides open-drain status outputs with internal pull-down, and detects open loads in both ON state (20–80mA threshold) and OFF state (1.5–3.5V threshold with external pull-up). Protection logic includes loss-of-ground detection via dedicated IGND pins and reverse-battery tolerance down to −0.3V on VCC.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 5.5V to 36V operating supply - supports 12V/24V automotive systems with headroom for load dump transients. |
| RDS(on) | 160mΩ max at IOUT = 1A, Tj = 25°C - enables low conduction loss and <1W dissipation at 3.5A continuous. |
| IOUT Limit | 3.5A typical current limit - protects against sustained overload while allowing inrush for inductive loads. |
| Open Load Detection | ON-state: 20–80mA threshold; OFF-state: 1.5–3.5V threshold with external pull-up - enables robust fault reporting without external sensing circuitry. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C trip, 135°C reset (15°C hysteresis) - prevents permanent damage during sustained overloads or poor heatsinking. |
| ISO 7637-2 Compliance | Pulse 1 (−100V), Pulse 2a (+100V), Pulse 3a/b (±150V), Pulse 4 (−7V), Pulse 5 (+86.5V) - meets automotive EMC requirements without external TVS. |
| Status Output | Open-drain, 0.5V max low-level at 1.6mA - compatible with 3.3V/5V microcontrollers and supports wired-OR diagnostics. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SO-28 (Double Island), 300 mil width, 1.27 mm pitch, dual thermal islands (pins 1–14 and 15–28 form two electrically isolated groups sharing VCC/GND pairs).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC1,2 / VCC3,4 | Power supply input (dual island) | Two independent VCC rails - allows separate power domains or redundancy; each powers two channels. |
| GND1,2 / GND3,4 | Ground return (dual island) | Dedicated ground paths per island - critical for accurate current sensing and loss-of-ground detection. |
| INPUT1–4 | CMOS logic input | Active-high control; 1µA leakage, 0.5V hysteresis - immune to noise and compatible with MCU GPIOs. |
| OUTPUT1–4 | High-side switched output | Drives load between OUTPUT and ground; supports inductive loads up to 1.38mH with 23mJ safe switching energy. |
| STATUS1–4 | Diagnostic open-drain output | Reports channel faults (open load, overtemp, UV/OV); requires external pull-up for logic-high indication. |
| N.C. | No connect | Pins 1, 14, 15, 28 - must be left floating per datasheet; no internal connection or function. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Per-channel diagnostic status | Single-pin open-drain reporting of open-load (ON/OFF), overtemperature, undervoltage, overvoltage, and short-to-VCC - reduces BOM count and simplifies firmware polling. |
| Reverse battery protection | Withstands −0.3V on VCC and supports external ground-line resistor/diode networks - eliminates need for upstream series diode in 12V systems. |
| Dual thermal islands | SO-28 package with physically separated die islands - enables independent thermal management and fault isolation between channel pairs. |
| Integrated VCC clamp | Clamps low-energy transients (ISO 7637 Pulse 1/2a/3a/b) without external components - reduces PCB area and system cost. |
| Loss-of-ground detection | Monitors IGND pin current (−200mA max reverse) and shuts down channel if ground path fails - enhances functional safety in critical loads. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad high-side driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| VNQ830TR-E | Higher RDS(on) (300mΩ), lower IOUT limit (2.1A), same SO-28 package and feature set | Better suited for lower-power loads (e.g., small relays, indicators) where thermal margin is constrained | Select when load current ≤2A and board space prohibits adding heatsink; retains identical pinout and diagnostics. |
| TPS4H160-Q1 | Single-channel, 160mΩ, AEC-Q100 qualified, SPI interface instead of parallel inputs/status | Requires MCU firmware integration for configuration and fault readback; no native open-load OFF-state detection | Choose for systems needing channel configurability (current limit, slew rate) and CAN-based diagnostics; not drop-in replaceable. |
Compared with VNQ810TR-E, VNQ830TR-E trades current capacity for lower thermal stress in compact layouts, while TPS4H160-Q1 shifts diagnostic granularity and control flexibility to software at the cost of increased MCU overhead and loss of hardware-level OFF-state open-load detection.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous current per channel for VNQ810TR-E?
The VNQ810TR-E supports 3.5A continuous output current per channel at Tj ≤ 150°C with adequate PCB copper heatsinking (≥6 cm² per island). Derating applies above 100°C junction temperature; at 125°C, rated current drops to ~2.8A per channel based on thermal resistance data (Rthj-amb = 31°C/W for two channels ON).
Does VNQ810TR-E require external components for ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5 compliance?
No external components are required for ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5 (+86.5V, 400ms) compliance - the integrated VCC clamp and internal protection architecture handle this transient. However, a voltage transient suppressor (Dld) is recommended if load-dump peaks exceed 41V or if system-level testing reveals marginal margin under combined transients.
How does open-load detection work in the OFF state?
OFF-state open-load detection requires an external pull-up resistor (RPU) from OUTPUT to VPU (e.g., +5V). When the load is disconnected, OUTPUT floats high (>1.5V), triggering STATUS low. When connected, OUTPUT is pulled low through the load, keeping STATUS high. Thresholds are 1.5–3.5V (VOL) and detection delay is 1000µs.
Can VNQ810TR-E drive inductive loads like fuel injectors or solenoids?
Yes - it is qualified for inductive loads up to 1.38mH with 5A peak current and 23mJ demagnetization energy (Tjstart = 150°C). The integrated output clamp (VDEMAG = VCC−41V to VCC−55V) safely dissipates flyback energy without external diodes, provided PCB layout minimizes parasitic inductance in the VCC/GND loop.
