VN7000AYTR

Overview

The VN7000AYTR is a single-channel high-side smart power switch manufactured by STMicroelectronics using VIPower M0-7 technology. It operates within a load voltage range of 4 V to 28 V and supports an output current of 30 A. The device features a typical on-resistance (Rds_on) of 1.5 mOhms and utilizes a PowerSSO-36 surface-mount package. Designed for automotive applications, it complies with AEC-Q100 standards and functions across a junction temperature range of -40°C to +150°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates MultiSense analog feedback for precise monitoring of load current, supply voltage, and chip temperature via a multiplexed pin.
• Provides comprehensive protection including over-temperature shutdown with latch-off, load current limitation, and detection of short circuits to ground or VCC.
• Features OFF-state open-load detection and reverse battery protection capabilities for robust automotive load driving.

Applications

• Driving 12 V automotive grounded loads
• Deep cold cranking applications compliant with LV124
• Automotive lighting systems
• Solenoid and relay control

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required packaging format, such as reel or cut tape, as indicated in distributor catalogs. Confirm that the component meets AEC-Q100 qualification requirements for your specific automotive grade application. Ensure the PowerSSO-36 package dimensions align with your PCB footprint design constraints before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single channel with high precision diagnostic feedback is required. The low Rds_on value minimizes conduction losses for high-current loads up to 30 A. The MultiSense feature allows sharing external sense resistors among similar devices, reducing bill of materials cost. Consider the latch-off behavior during over-temperature events for system reset logic design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the VN7000 series of smart high-side drivers from STMicroelectronics. It is part of the VIPower M0-7 family, which integrates advanced protection and diagnostic features on a single die. The series is designed to replace discrete MOSFETs and gate drivers, simplifying automotive circuit designs while enhancing reliability through integrated thermal and electrical protections.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same family include VN7000AY. Verify compatibility with existing PCB footprints and control logic levels. Ensure substitute parts maintain the same AEC-Q100 qualification and VIPower M0-7 technology characteristics for equivalent performance in automotive environments.
