active low digital status pin is associated with
every output channel that provides enhanced
diagnostic functions including fast detection of
overload and short-circuit to ground,
overtemperature indication, short-circuit to VCC
diagnosis and ON-state and OFF-state open-load
detection.
The diagnostic feedback of the whole device can
be disabled by pulling the STAT_DIS pin up, thus
allowing wired-ORing with similar devices.

Description
EV-VNQ5E160K provides you an easy way to
connect ST’s surface mounted VIPower® drivers
into your existing prototype circuitry. This
evaluation board comes pre-assembled with
VNQ5E160K-E high-side driver.
The VNQ5E160K-E is a quad channel
high-side driver manufactured using ST
proprietary VIPower M0-5 technology and housed
in PowerSSO-24 package. The VNQ5E160K-E is
designed to drive automotive grounded loads,
providing protection, diagnostics and easy 3 V
and 5 V CMOS-compatible interface with any
microcontroller.
The device integrates advanced protective
functions such as load current limitation, inrush
and overload active management by power
limitation, overtemperature shut-off with autorestart and overvoltage active clamp. A dedicated

Design recommendations
This evaluation board provides mounting solution and some heat sinking capability for
prototype development, but there are still external components that are required to make
these devices work in any application. For further information on how the evaluation board
has to be used you can refer to the AN4212 (see Appendix A: Reference documents).
Figure 2 illustrates the necessary components for any application.

ST has produced a user manual for safe designs using ST’s VIPower devices. This is
UM1556 (see Appendix A: Reference documents). UM1556 is a VIPower Hardware design
guide that provides all necessary information to successfully design your circuit using our
VIPower drivers.
All designs have different needs and requirements. Whatever design you decide to use, it
will still need to be verified in order to meet your application specifications. ST implies no
guarantee or warranty (see Appendix A: Reference documents).
