VNQ6004SATR-E

The VNQ6004SA-E is a device made using STMicroelectronics VIPower technology. It is intended for driving resistive or inductive loads directly connected to ground. The device is protected against voltage transient on V_CCpin.Programming, control and diagnostics are implemented via the SPI bus.An analog current feedback for each channel is connected to the CURRENT-SENSE pin via a multiplexer. A CS_SYNC pin delivers a synchronous signal for sampling the current sense while the corresponding output is on.The device detects open-load for both on and OFF-state conditions.Real time diagnostic is available through the SPI bus (open-load, output short to V_CC, over temperature, communication error, power limitation).Output current limitation protects the device in an over load condition. The device can limit the dissipated power to a safe level up to thermal shutdown intervention. Thermal shutdown can be configured as latched off or with automatic restart.The device enters a limp home mode in case of loss of digital supply (V_DD), reset of digital memory or CSN monitoring time-out event. In this mode states of channel 0, 1, 2 or 3 are respectively controlled by four dedicated pins IN0, IN1, IN2 and IN3. Channel 0,1 can be programmed in BULB/LED mode.
