STMICROELECTRONICS EV-VND9025AJ Evaluation Board, VND9025AJ, High Side Driver, Power Management

EV-VND9025AJ is a EV-VND9025AJ evaluation board which provides an easy way to connect VND9025AJ into existing system. It comes pre-assembled with VND9025AJ high-side driver. On-board minimum set of electrical components enables user to directly connect the load, power supply and microcontroller without any additional effort in external component design and connection. Device VND9025AJ is a double channel high-side driver manufactured using ST proprietary VIPower M0-9 technology and housed in PowerSSO-16 package. Device is designed to drive 12V automotive grounded loads through 3V and 5V CMOS compatible interface, providing protection and diagnostics. Device integrates advanced protective functions such as load current limitation, overload active management by power limitation and overtemperature shutdown with configurable latch-off. Applications are automotive resistive, inductive and capacitive loads, protected supply for ADAS system: radars and sensors, automotive turn indicators.

• Operating voltage VCC range from 4 to 28V and 35A 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
