Overview
The VN772K-E, produced by STMicroelectronics, is a quad smart power solid state relay designed for complete H-bridge configurations. This device is formed by three monolithic chips housed in a standard SO-28 package, comprising a double high side and two low side switches. The high side and low side switches are built using STMicroelectronics' VIPower™ M0-3 Technology and OMNIFET II™ technology, respectively. This component is particularly suited for driving DC motors in bridge configurations and can also be used as a quad switch for various low voltage applications.
