Description
The VNQ5160K-E is a monolithic device made
using STMicroelectronics VIPower™ M0-5
technology. It is intended for driving resistive or
inductive loads with one side connected to
ground. Active V
device against low energy spikes (see ISO7637
transient compatibility table).
The device detects open-load condition in both on
and off states, when STAT_DIS is left open or
driven low. Output shorted to V
the off-state. When STAT_DIS is driven high, the
STATUS pin is in a high impedance condition.
Output current limitation protects the device in
overload condition. In the case of long duration
overload, the device limits the dissipated power to
a safe level up to thermal shutdown intervention.
CC
Thermal shutdown with automatic restart allows
the device to recover normal operation as soon as
a fault condition disappears.
1. To ensure long term reliability under heavy overload or short circuit conditions, protection and related
diagnostic signals must be used together with a proper software strategy. If the device is subjected to
abnormal conditions, this software must limit the duration and number of activation cycles

If the calculated power dissipation leads to a large resistor or several devices have to share
the same resistor then ST suggests that Solution 2 is used(see below).

A resistor (R
=1kΩ) should be inserted in parallel with D

) in the ground line.

This small signal diode can be safely shared amongst several different HSDs. Also in this
case, the presence of the ground network will produce a shift (

the device ground. This shift will not vary if more than one HSD shares the same
diode/resistor network.
3.2 Load dump protection
Dld is necessary (Voltage Transient Suppressor) if the load dump peak voltage exceeds to
V
max DC rating. The same applies if the device is subject to transients on the VCC line

that are greater than the ones shown in the ISO T/R 7637/1 table.
3.3 Microcontroller I/Os protection
If a ground protection network is used and negative transients are present on the VCC line,
the control pins will be pulled negative. ST suggests the insertion of resistors (R
lines to prevent the μC I/Os pins from latching up.
The values of these resistors are a compromise between the leakage current of μC and the
current required by the HSD I/Os (input levels compatibility) with the latch-up limit of the μC
