Product details
Overview
VNQ830PEPTR-E from STMicroelectronics is a quad-channel high-side driver IC designed for automotive and industrial load switching, featuring 60 mΩ RDS(on) per channel, 14 A continuous output current capability, 36 V maximum supply voltage, and integrated open-load detection in both on- and off-states. It operates in PowerSSO-24 package and is used to drive grounded resistive, inductive, or capacitive loads in body control modules and lighting systems.
For engineers reviewing the VNQ830PEPTR-E datasheet, VNQ830PEPTR-E pinout, VNQ830PEPTR-E application, or VNQ830PEPTR-E equivalent, key selection considerations include its CMOS-compatible inputs, open-drain status outputs with diagnostic feedback, reverse battery protection, loss-of-ground detection, and ISO 7637-2 transient immunity up to Pulse 5A (86.5 V).
Technical Context
The device integrates four independent VIPower™ M0-3 high-side switches with active current limiting, thermal shutdown with automatic restart, and dual-mode open-load detection-using output current threshold (35–140 mA) in on-state and output voltage threshold (1.5–3.5 V) in off-state. Each channel features dedicated status pins with clamp protection and hysteresis.
Protection architecture includes undervoltage shutdown at 3–5.5 V, overvoltage shutdown at 36 V, short-circuit current limitation (14–23 A), and loss-of-ground detection that forces automatic turn-off when GND disconnects. The VCC pin incorporates an active clamp for low-energy transients per ISO 7637-2.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| RDS(on) | 60 mΩ per channel at IOUT = 2 A, Tj = 25°C - enables low conduction loss and minimal self-heating under full load |
| IOUT (continuous) | 14 A per channel - supports high-current solenoids, lamps, and motors without external heatsinking in typical PCB layouts |
| VCC range | 5.5 V to 36 V - compatible with 12 V and 24 V automotive battery systems including cold-crank and load-dump conditions |
| Open-load detection | On-state: 35–140 mA threshold; Off-state: 1.5–3.5 V threshold - provides reliable fault reporting for disconnected or broken-wire loads |
| Thermal shutdown | Triggers at 150–200°C junction temperature with 135°C reset hysteresis - prevents permanent damage during sustained overload |
| ISO 7637-2 immunity | Pulse 1, 2a, 2b, 3a, 3b, 4, and 5A compliant - withstands automotive electrical transients without latch-up or functional interruption |
| Standby current | 8.5 µA typical at VCC = 13 V, Tj = 25°C - minimizes battery drain in always-on vehicle subsystems |
Pinout & Package
Package: PowerSSO-24 - thermally enhanced exposed-tab SO-24 package with VCC-connected tab for low thermal resistance (Rthj-case = 1.5 °C/W) and optimized PCB copper area mounting.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Power supply input | 36 V max DC supply; includes active clamp for ISO 7637 transient suppression; connected to exposed thermal pad |
| GND | Ground reference | System ground return; loss-of-ground detection triggers immediate channel disable |
| IN1–IN4 | Digital input control | CMOS-compatible (VIL ≤ 1.25 V, VIH ≥ 3.25 V); 0.5 V hysteresis prevents noise-induced switching |
| OUT1–OUT4 | High-side switched output | Drives load between OUTx and GND; includes reverse-battery diode (VF ≤ 0.6 V @ 1.3 A) |
| ST1–ST4 | Status output | Open-drain diagnostic pin per channel; pulls low on overtemperature, overload, open-load, or UV/OV fault |
| N.C. | No-connect terminal | Internally unused; must be left floating or tied to GND via 10 kΩ resistor per datasheet Table 2 |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Quad-channel integration | Four independent high-side drivers in single PowerSSO-24 package - reduces board space and BOM count vs discrete solutions |
| Real-time diagnostics | Dedicated open-drain status pins per channel report open-load, short-to-VCC, overcurrent, overtemperature, and supply faults |
| Reverse battery protection | Withstands -14 V applied to VCC (per Figure 24 schematic) - eliminates need for external series diode in battery-fed systems |
| Loss-of-ground detection | Automatic channel disable if GND pin disconnects - prevents uncontrolled load activation and system-level safety hazard |
| Low quiescent current | 20 µA max standby current - meets automotive "parking mode" current budget requirements (< 50 µA) |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS4H160-Q1 | Higher RDS(on) (100 mΩ), lower IOUT (10 A), integrated SPI interface for advanced diagnostics | Requires microcontroller with SPI support; better suited for centralized diagnostics vs discrete status pins | Select when digital bus communication and programmable fault thresholds are required over analog simplicity |
| BTS724G | Single-channel device; identical RDS(on) (60 mΩ) and protection set but requires four separate packages | Higher PCB area and assembly cost; same thermal performance per channel but no shared VCC/GND optimization | Select only when channel isolation or staggered layout constraints prevent quad integration |
Compared with TPS4H160-Q1, VNQ830PEPTR-E offers simpler GPIO-based control and lower conduction loss, while BTS724G delivers identical per-channel specs at the cost of footprint and thermal coupling inefficiency.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe operating voltage for VNQ830PEPTR-E?
The absolute maximum VCC rating is 41 V DC, but the recommended operating range is 5.5 V to 36 V. Operation above 36 V triggers overvoltage shutdown at 36 V nominal (±1 V tolerance), protecting internal circuitry. Transient spikes up to 100 V (ISO 7637-2 Pulse 2a) are tolerated due to the integrated VCC clamp.
How does open-load detection work in the off-state?
In off-state, the device applies a small test current (~50 µA) to each output and monitors voltage rise. If VOUT exceeds 1.5–3.5 V (depending on temperature), it detects an open load and pulls the corresponding STATUS pin low. This occurs even when the input is low, enabling wire-break detection during standby.
Can VNQ830PEPTR-E drive inductive loads like solenoids?
Yes - it is explicitly rated for inductive loads with demagnetization energy handling up to VCC − 55 V (at IOUT = 2 A, L = 6 mH). The integrated output clamp diode and fast turn-off time (< 30 µs) suppress flyback voltage, eliminating need for external snubbers in most 12/24 V solenoid applications.
Is the PowerSSO-24 package RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes - the VNQ830PEPTR-E uses ST's ECOPACK®2-compliant PowerSSO-24 package, meeting RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and REACH SVHC requirements. Lead-free soldering profiles (JEDEC J-STD-020) are supported, and the device carries the "E" suffix indicating lead-free finish per ST's packaging nomenclature.
