STMICROELECTRONICS EV-VND9016AJ Evaluation Board, VND9016AJ, High Side Driver, Power Management

EV-VND9016AJ is a VND9016AJ evaluation board provides an easy way to connect VND9016AJ into the existing system. It comes pre-assembled with VND9016AJ high-side driver. On-board minimum set of electrical components is enabling the user to directly connect the load, the power supply and the microcontroller without any additional effort in external component design and connection. The VND9016AJ is a double channel high-side driver manufactured using ST proprietary VIPower M0-9 technology and housed in PowerSSO-16 package. The device is designed to drive 12V automotive grounded loads through a 3 and 5V CMOS compatible interface, providing protection and diagnostics. The device integrates advanced protective functions such as load current limitation, overload active management by power limitation and overtemperature shutdown with configurable latch-off. Typical applications include automotive resistive, inductive and capacitive loads, protected supply for ADAS systems: radars and sensors.

• Operating voltage VCC range from 4 to 28V and 50.6A typ current limitation
• Extreme low voltage operation for deep cold cranking applications
• Double channel smart high-side driver with current sense analogue feedback
• Very low standby current and compatible with 3V and 5V CMOS outputs
• Overload and short to ground (power limitation) indication, thermal shutdown indication
• OFF-state open-load detection, output short to VCC detection and sense enable/disable
• Undervoltage shutdown, overvoltage clamp, load current limitation protections
• Configurable latch-off on overtemperature or power limitation with dedicated fault reset pin
• Loss of ground and loss of VCC
• Reverse battery through self turn-on and electrostatic discharge protection
