Description
The VNL5160N3-E and VNL5160S5-E are
monolithic devices, made using
STMicroelectronics
®
VIPower
®
Technology,
intended for driving resistive or inductive loads
with one side connected to the battery. Built-in
thermal shutdown protects the chip from
overtemperature and short circuit. Output current
limitation protects the devices in an overload
condition. In the case of a long duration overload,
the device limits the dissipated power to a safe
level up to thermal shutdown intervention.
Thermal shutdown, with automatic restart, allows
the device to recover normal operation as soon as
a fault condition disappears. Fast
demagnetization of inductive loads is achieved at
turn-off.
