Description
The VND5E050MCJ-E and VND5E050MCK-E are double channel high-side drivers manufactured using ST proprietary VIPower® M0-5 technology and housed in PowerSSO-12 and PowerSSO-24 packages. The devices are designed to drive 12 V automotive grounded loads, and to provide protection and diagnostics. They also implement a 3 V and 5 V CMOScompatible interface for the use with any microcontroller. The devices integrate advanced protective functions such as load current limitation, inrush and overload active management by power limitation, overtemperature shut-off with auto-restart and overvoltage active clamp. A dedicated analog current sense pin is associated with every output channel providing enhanced diagnostic functions including fast detection of overload and short-circuit to ground through power limitation indication and overtemperature indication. The current sensing and diagnostic feedback of the whole device can be disabled by pulling the CS_DIS pin high to share the external sense resistor with similar devices. Max transient supply voltage VCC 41 V Operating voltage range VCC 4.5 V to 28 V Max on-state resistance (per ch.) RON 50 m Current limitation (typ) ILIMH 27 A Off-state supply current IS 2 µA(1) 1.
