Description
The VND5012AK-E 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 VCC pin voltage clamp protects the
device against low energy spikes (see ISO7637
transient compatibility table). This device
integrates an analog current sense which delivers
a current proportional to the load current
(according to a known ratio) when CS_DIS is
driven low or left open. When CS_DIS is driven
high, the CURRENT SENSE pin is in a high
impedance condition. Output current limitation
protects the device in overload condition. In case
of long overload duration, the device limits the
dissipated power to safe level up to thermal
shutdown intervention. Thermal shutdown with
automatic restart allows the device to recover
normal operation as soon as fault condition
disappears.
Max supply voltage VCC 41 V
Operating voltage range VCC 4.5 to 36 V
Max on-state resistance (per ch.)
RON 12 mΩ
Current limitation (typ) ILIMH 60 A

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.

3 Application information
Figure 26. Application schematic
Note: Channel 2 has the same internal circuit as channel 1.
3.1 GND Protection network against reverse battery
3.1.1 Solution 1: resistor in the ground line (RGND only)
This can be used with any type of load.
The following is an indication on how to dimension the RGND resistor.
1. RGND 600 mV / (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
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 leads to a large resistor or several devices have to share
the same resistor then ST suggests to utilize Solution 2 (see below).
3.1.2 Solution 2: diode (DGND) in the ground line
A resistor (RGND=1 kΩ) should be inserted in parallel to DGND if the device drives an
inductive load.
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 (600mV) in the input
threshold and in the status output values if the microprocessor ground is not common to 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 the
VCC 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 7637-2: 2004(E) table.
3.3 MCU I/Os protection
If a ground protection network is used and negative transient 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/Os pins to latch-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
Calculation example:
For VCCpeak= - 100 V and Ilatchup 20 mA; VOHµC 4.5 V
5kΩ Rprot 180 kΩ.
Recommended values: Rprot =10 kΩ, CEXT=10 nF.
