Product details
Overview
X-NUCLEO-OUT16A1 from STMicroelectronics is an industrial digital output expansion board for STM32 Nucleo development platforms, built around the IPS8200HQ octal high-side smart power solid-state relay. It delivers 0.7 A per channel across eight isolated outputs, operates from 12–33 V (up to 36 V with J9 open), and integrates galvanic isolation (4 kVPK) via STISO620/STISO621 isolators for logic-to-process side separation in PLC and factory automation interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the X-NUCLEO-OUT16A1 datasheet, X-NUCLEO-OUT16A1 pinout, X-NUCLEO-OUT16A1 application, or X-NUCLEO-OUT16A1 equivalent, key selection considerations include SPI-8/16-bit vs. parallel driving mode configuration, diagnostic pin visibility (FAULT/TWARN/PGOOD), daisy-chain capability for multi-board stacks, and compatibility with Arduino® UNO R3 and STM32 Nucleo-F401RE/G431RB boards.
Technical Context
The board implements dual-domain power architecture: logic side (VISO_L = 3.3 V or 5.0 V) powered via CN13 or CN6, and process side (VCC = 12–36 V) supplying loads through CN1/CN2/CN3/CN4/CN12. Isolation is maintained by four STISO620/STISO621 digital isolators enabling bidirectional SPI or GPIO control across domains.
Driving modes are hardware-selectable via jumpers JP21 (SEL2) and JP22 (SEL1): parallel mode uses IN1–IN8 signals directly; SPI mode supports 8-bit (default) or 16-bit frame formats with daisy-chain support enabled via IN7/SPI_SS and IN5/DAISY_CHAIN pins. MCU freeze detection is activated via WDEN(in) on CN9[4].
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Channels | 8 independent high-side outputs (OUT1–OUT8), each rated for ≤0.7 A continuous load current. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 12–33 V nominal; extended to 36 V when jumper J9 is open - supports standard industrial 24 V DC systems. |
| Galvanic Isolation | 4 kVPK (2.8 kVRMS) via STISO620/STISO621 isolators - enables safe interfacing between MCU logic and field-side industrial loads. |
| Driving Modes | Hardware-selectable: parallel (GPIO) or SPI (8-bit default, 16-bit configurable) - determines signal routing and firmware interface requirements. |
| Diagnostic Outputs | Three dedicated status pins: FAULT (overload/overtemp), TWARN (case overtemperature), PGOOD (supply voltage level) - each mapped to red LEDs and test points. |
| Board Interface | Arduino® UNO R3 and STM32 Morpho connectors - ensures plug-and-play integration with NUCLEO-F401RE and NUCLEO-G431RB development boards. |

FAQ
What power supplies are required to operate the X-NUCLEO-OUT16A1 independently of a Nucleo board?
When used standalone, the board requires two separate supplies: a 12–36 V source connected to CN1 for the process side (VCC), and a 3.3 V or 5.0 V source connected to CN13 for the logic side (VISO_L). Jumpers JP21 (open) and JP22 (open) must be set for parallel mode operation without MCU dependency.
How is daisy-chaining implemented between multiple X-NUCLEO-OUT16A1 boards?
Daisy-chaining uses the IN7/SPI_SS and IN5/DAISY_CHAIN pins on Arduino connectors. One board must have SW6 and SW18 set to positions 2–3 (slave), while the other uses positions 1–2 (master). SPI-16-bit mode is required, and both boards must share the same clock and MOSI/MISO lines via stacked headers.
Which diagnostic signals are visible on LEDs versus test points, and why are some CN8 pins unreliable for monitoring?
FAULT, TWARN, and PGOOD status signals drive red LEDs D11, D13, and D12 respectively, and are also accessible at test points TP5, TP6, and TP7. Pins CN8[5], CN5[9], and CN5[10] are incorrectly routed on the PCB and cannot reliably reflect process-side diagnostic states due to internal net misconnections.
Can the embedded step-down converter in the IPS8200HQ supply VISO_P, and how is its output voltage selected?
Yes - the IPS8200HQ's integrated buck converter generates VISO_P (3.3 V or 5.0 V) when JP31 is closed and JP20/JP15/JP28 are configured: JP28 pins 2–4 yield 3.3 V; pins 1–3 yield 5.0 V. Alternatively, VISO_P can be supplied externally via CN14 with SW17 set to 2–3 and JP20/JP15 open.
