VND7020AJTR-E

Power Distribution Switches, Load Drivers Overview

The VND7020AJTR-E is a double channel smart high-side driver manufactured using ST VIPower M0-7 technology. It is housed in a PowerSSO-16 package and designed to drive 12 V automotive grounded loads through a 3 V and 5 V CMOS-compatible interface. The device integrates advanced protective functions including load current limitation, overload active management by power limitation, and overtemperature shutdown with configurable latch-off. A FaultRST pin unlatches the output in case of fault or disables the latch-off functionality.

Power Distribution Switches, Load Drivers Feature Summary

• Integrates MultiSense analog feedback for high precision proportional load current sense, supply voltage feedback, and chip temperature sense.
• Provides sophisticated diagnostic functions including detection of overload, short circuit to ground, short to VCC, and OFF-state open-load.
• Features configurable latch-off on overtemperature or power limitation with a dedicated fault reset pin.

Power Distribution Switches, Load Drivers Applications

• Driving 12 V automotive grounded loads
• Automotive applications requiring AEC-Q100 qualification

Power Distribution Switches, Load Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number includes the '-E' suffix, which typically denotes an evaluation board variant rather than the standard production IC. Confirm whether the procurement requirement is for the actual semiconductor component (VND7020AJTR) or the associated development tool kit. Ensure compatibility with existing design specifications before ordering.

Power Distribution Switches, Load Drivers Selection Notes

Select this component when dual-channel high-side switching with integrated analog diagnostics is required for automotive systems. The VIPower M0-7 technology offers robust protection features suitable for harsh environments. Consider the PowerSSO-16 package constraints and the need for a CMOS-compatible control interface when designing the system architecture.
