2.1 Absolute maximum ratings
Stressing the device above the rating listed in the “Absolute maximum ratings” table may
cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only and operation of the
device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the Operating sections of
this specification is not implied. Exposure to Absolute Maximum Rating conditions for
extended periods may affect device reliability. Refer also to the STMicroelectronics SURE
Program and other relevant quality document.

3.1 GND protection network against reverse battery
This section provides two solutions for implementing a ground protection network against
reverse battery.
3.1.1 Solution 1: a resistor in the ground line (RGND only)
This can be used with any type of load.
The following show how to dimension the RGND resistor:
1. RGND 600mV / 2 (IS(on)max)
2. RGND ≥ ( - VCC) / ( - IGND)
where - IGND is the DC reverse ground pin current and can be found in the absolute
maximum rating section of the device datasheet.
Power dissipation in RGND (when VCC < 0 during reverse battery situations) is:
PD = ( - VCC)2/ RGND

VNQ660SP Application information

This resistor can be shared amongst several different HSDs. Please note that the value of
this resistor should be calculated with formula (1) where IS(on)max becomes the sum of the
maximum on-state currents of the different devices.
Please note that, if the microprocessor ground is not shared by the device ground, then the
RGND will produce a shift (IS(on)max * RGND) in the input thresholds and the status output
values. This shift will vary depending on how many devices are ON in the case of several
high side drivers sharing the same RGND .
If the calculated power dissipation requires the use of a large resistor, or several devices
have to share the same resistor, then ST suggests using solution 2 below.
3.1.2 Solution 2: a diode (DGND) in the ground line
A resistor (RGND = 1k) should be inserted in parallel to DGND if the device will be driving
an inductive load. This small signal diode can be safely shared amongst several different
HSD. Also in this case, the presence of the ground network will produce a shift (j600mV) in
the input threshold and the status output values if the microprocessor ground is not common
with the device ground. This shift will not vary if more than one HSD shares the same
diode/resistor network. Series resistor in INPUT and STATUS lines are also required to
prevent that, during battery voltage transient, the current exceeds the Absolute Maximum
Rating. Safest configuration for unused INPUT and STATUS pin is to leave them
unconnected.
3.2 Load dump protection
Dld is necessary (voltage transient suppressor) if the load dump peak voltage exceeds the
VCC maximum DC rating. The same applies if the device is subject to transients on the VCC
line that are greater than those shown in the ISO T/R 7637/1 table.
3.3 MCU I/O 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 to insert a resistor (Rprot) in line to
prevent the µC I/O pins from latching up.
The value of these resistors is 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 µC
I/Os:
- VCCpeak / Ilatchup Rprot (VOHµC - VIH - VGND) / IIHmax
Example
For the following conditions:
VCCpeak = - 100V
Ilatchup 20mA
VOHµC 4.5V
5k Rprot 65k.
Recommended values are:
Rprot = 10k
