Product details

Overview

VNQ830TR-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 each load connects to ground. It delivers 6 A per channel, features 60 mΩ on-state resistance at 2 A/25°C, supports 36 V DC supply, and integrates open-load detection (on/off state), short-circuit protection, thermal shutdown with automatic restart, and reverse-battery protection. It is used in body control modules to drive solenoids, lamps, and valves.

For engineers reviewing the VNQ830TR-E datasheet, VNQ830TR-E pinout, VNQ830TR-E application, or VNQ830TR-E equivalent, key selection criteria include per-channel current limiting (6–15 A), dual-island SO-28 thermal performance, CMOS-compatible inputs with 0.5 V hysteresis, open-drain status outputs with 0.5 V low-level voltage, and ISO 7637-2 transient immunity up to Pulse 5a (−7 V, 100 ms).

Technical Context

The VNQ830TR-E integrates two independent VND830-E dies in a single SO-28 double-island package, enabling four fully isolated high-side switch channels with shared thermal domains per island. Each channel includes dedicated overtemperature sensing (trip at 150–200°C), undervoltage lockout (4 V typ.), overvoltage shutdown (36 V), and loss-of-ground detection via internal ground pin monitoring.

It implements active current limiting with fast response (20 µs status delay under overload), open-load diagnostics using external pull-up for off-state detection (VOL threshold 1.5–3.5 V), and output clamping during demagnetization (VCC − 55 V typ.). The device complies with ISO 7637-2 Class C immunity across all five test pulses, including load dump (Pulse 5a) and battery reversal transients.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_CC Range	5.5 V to 36 V - supports full automotive battery range including cold-crank (5.5 V) and load dump (36 V)
R_DS(on)	60 mΩ max at I_OUT = 2 A, T_j = 25°C - enables low conduction loss for 6 A continuous loads
I_OUT Continuous	6 A per channel - rated for sustained solenoid or lamp driving without external heatsink under defined PCB copper area
Open-Load Detection	On-state: 50–200 mA threshold; Off-state: VOL > 1.5 V with external pull-up - enables fault reporting before actuation or during standby
Thermal Shutdown	150°C trip, 135°C reset, 7–15°C hysteresis - prevents latch-up and enables safe auto-recovery after overload
Status Output	Open-drain, V_STAT(L) ≤ 0.5 V @ 1.6 mA - compatible with 3.3 V/5 V microcontroller inputs without level-shifting
ISO 7637-2 Immunity	Class C for Pulses 1–5 - survives automotive transients including −100 V (Pulse 1), +100 V (Pulse 2), and −7 V (Pulse 4)

Pinout & Package

Package: SO-28 Double Island (16-pin per island, physically separated thermal domains). Dimensions per JEDEC MS-012: 18.1 mm × 10.65 mm × 2.65 mm height, 1.27 mm pitch.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
1, 14, 15, 28	V_CC1,2 / V_CC3,4	Power supply pins for Island 1 (pins 1,14) and Island 2 (pins 15,28); each pair must be decoupled locally
2–5, 16–19	INPUT1–4	CMOS-compatible digital inputs; 1.25 V low, 3.25 V high, 0.5 V hysteresis - immune to noise in harsh environments
6–9, 20–23	OUTPUT1–4	High-side switched outputs; internally limited to 6 A, clamp to V_CC − 55 V during inductive turn-off
10–13, 24–27	STATUS1–4	Open-drain diagnostic outputs; pulled low during overload, open-load, overtemp, or UV/OV - requires external pull-up
11, 12, 25, 26	GND1,2 / GND3,4	Island-specific ground returns; separate GND paths prevent crosstalk and support ground-loss detection

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Per-channel open-load detection in ON/OFF states	Enables pre-actuation diagnostics and standby monitoring without external circuitry beyond pull-up resistor
Reverse battery protection	Withstands −0.3 V V_CC and supports external ground-protection networks (resistor or diode) to block −100 V reverse transients
Dual-island SO-28 thermal architecture	Allows independent thermal management per two-channel island; R_thj-amb = 31 °C/W (both islands ON, 6 cm² Cu)
Integrated V_CC clamp and active current limiting	Clamps transients to safe levels and limits peak current to 6–15 A depending on temperature - eliminates need for external fuses
Loss-of-ground detection	Shuts down all channels if GND pin disconnects - prevents uncontrolled load activation in wiring fault conditions

Applications

Automotive Body Control Module

Industrial PLC Output Stage

Use Scenario: Driving door locks, seat heaters, and HVAC actuators in 12 V vehicle electrical systems.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch providing controlled power delivery with real-time fault reporting via STATUS pins.

Use Value: Eliminates discrete protection components; reduces BOM count by integrating open-load, short-circuit, and thermal protection per channel.

Use Scenario: Controlling 24 V DC solenoid valves and indicator lamps in factory automation cabinets.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Robust load interface with diagnostic feedback for predictive maintenance and system-level safety compliance.

Use Value: Enables SIL2-capable designs via deterministic fault signaling (e.g., STATUS low = overload within 20 µs).

Truck Lighting System

Off-Highway Equipment Power Distribution

Use Scenario: Switching headlamps, fog lights, and marker lights subject to ISO 7637-2 load dump and reverse battery events.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Automotive-qualified high-side driver with integrated V_CC clamp and reverse-polarity hardening.

Use Value: Passes Pulse 5a (−7 V, 100 ms) without external TVS; reduces board space vs. discrete clamp + MOSFET + driver solutions.

Use Scenario: Managing auxiliary hydraulic valve banks and cab lighting in construction equipment with wide ambient temperature range (−40°C to +125°C).

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Thermally robust quad driver supporting simultaneous 6 A loads with automatic thermal recovery.

Use Value: Maintains operation at T_j = 150°C and recovers autonomously after cooling - avoids system shutdown during transient overloads.

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
STSPIN840TR	Single-chip quad HSD in HTSSOP-28; lower R_DS(on) (45 mΩ), no reverse battery protection, no loss-of-ground detection	Suitable for non-automotive 24 V systems where ground integrity is guaranteed and reverse polarity is not expected	Select when higher efficiency is prioritized over automotive-grade fault coverage
TPS4H160-Q1	Quad HSD in HTSSOP-28; 160 V absolute max V_CC, integrated charge pump, no open-load OFF-state detection	Targeted at commercial vehicles with 24 V systems requiring higher V_CC margin and PWM capability	Select when operating above 36 V or requiring programmable current limit and PWM control

Compared with STSPIN840TR and TPS4H160-Q1, the VNQ830TR-E uniquely combines dual-island thermal isolation, reverse-battery hardening, and loss-of-ground protection - making it the only option qualified for critical 12 V automotive body electronics where wiring faults must be detected and contained.

FAQ

What is the maximum continuous output current per channel?

The VNQ830TR-E supports 6 A continuous output current per channel under specified thermal conditions: T_lead = 25°C, 6 cm² PCB copper per island. Derating applies above 25°C ambient; at 100°C ambient, max continuous current drops to ~3.5 A per channel based on R_thj-amb = 31 °C/W and T_j limit of 150°C.

How does off-state open-load detection work?

Off-state open-load detection requires an external pull-up resistor between OUTPUT and a positive supply (e.g., +5 V). When the load is disconnected, OUTPUT floats high; the device detects V_OUT > 1.5 V (min) and pulls STATUS low. With load connected, V_OUT stays below 1.5 V due to load current, keeping STATUS high - enabling unambiguous fault reporting during standby.

Can VNQ830TR-E drive inductive loads like solenoids?

Yes - the VNQ830TR-E includes active demagnetization clamping (V_CC − 55 V typ.) and current limiting to safely handle inductive kickback. For L = 2.5 mH and V_BAT = 13.5 V, maximum safe turn-off current is 9 A (single pulse, T_j,start = 150°C). External flyback diodes are not required, but layout must minimize parasitic inductance in V_CC and GND paths.

Is reverse-battery protection built-in or external?

Reverse-battery protection is implemented externally using either a series resistor (R_GND) or diode (D_GND) in the ground path, as specified in ST's application schematic (page 10). The VNQ830TR-E itself withstands −0.3 V on V_CC and monitors ground integrity, but full −100 V reverse protection requires the recommended external network to avoid damage to downstream logic.
