Description
The VHN5019A-E is a full bridge motor driver
intended for a wide range of automotive
applications. The device incorporates a dual
monolithic high-side drivers and two low-side
switches. The high-side driver switch is designed
using STMicroelectronics’ well known and proven
proprietary VIPower
®
M0 technology that allows
to efficiently integrate on the same die a true
Power MOSFET with an intelligent
signal/protection circuit.
The three dice are assembled in
MultiPowerSO-30 package on electrically isolated
lead-frames. This package, specifically designed
for the harsh automotive environment offers
improved thermal performance thanks to exposed
die pads. The input signals IN
A
and IN
B
can
directly interface to the microcontroller to select
the motor direction and the brake condition.
The DIAG

or DIAG

, when connected
to an external pull-up resistor, enable one leg of
the bridge. They also provide a feedback digital
diagnostic signal. The CS pin allows to monitor
the motor current by delivering a current
proportional to its value when CS_DIS pin is
driven low or left open. The PWM, up to 20 KHz,
lets us to control the speed of the motor in all
possible conditions. In all cases, a low-level state
on the PWM pin turns-off both the LS
A
and LS
B
switches. When PWM rises to a high-level, LS
A
or
LS
B
turn-on again depending on the input pin
state.
Output current limitation and thermal shutdown
protects the concerned high-side in short to
ground condition.
The short to battery condition is revealed by the
overload detector or by thermal shutdown that
latches off the relevant low-side.
Active V
CC
pin voltage clamp protects the device
against low energy spikes in all configurations for
the motor.
CP pin provides the necessary gate drive for an
external n-channel PowerMOS used for reverse
polarity protection.
