Overview
The VNH3SP30-E is a full-bridge motor driver designed for a wide range of automotive applications. It incorporates a dual monolithic high-side driver (HSD) and two low-side switches. The HSD switch utilizes STMicroelectronics' proprietary VIPower™ M0-3 technology, integrating a true Power MOSFET with an intelligent signal/protection circuit on the same die. The low-side switches are vertical MOSFETs manufactured using STMicroelectronics' proprietary EHD (“STripFET™”) process. The device is packaged in a MultiPowerSO-30 package, which is specifically designed for the harsh automotive environment, offering improved thermal performance and superior manufacturability at board level.
