Overview
The VNQ860SP-E and VNQ860SPTR-E are monolithic devices from STMicroelectronics, realized in the VIPower M0-3 technology. These quad-channel high-side drivers are designed to drive any kind of load with one side connected to ground. They feature active current limitation, thermal shutdown, and automatic restart, which protect the device against overload. Additionally, the devices automatically turn OFF in case of ground pin disconnection, making them especially suitable for IEC 61131 compliant industrial applications.
