Key Differentiators
- Higher output current per channel (13.6A) (vs VNQ7140AJTR)
- Quad-channel configuration (vs VNQ9080AJTR)
- Lower on-state resistance (70mOhm) (vs VNQ7140AJTR)
Design Notes
The PowerSSO-16 package has a thermal resistance of approximately 40 C/W (theta_JA) with proper PCB copper area. At 13.6A per channel and 70mOhm on-resistance, each channel dissipates about 13W. For a quad-channel device, total power dissipation can reach 52W, requiring a heatsink or large copper pour. Ensure the PCB has at least 2 square inches of copper connected to the exposed pad for adequate heat dissipation.
Place the VNQ7080AJTR close to the load to minimize trace inductance and resistance. Use wide traces for the output and supply connections to handle high currents. Add a 100nF ceramic capacitor and a 10uF electrolytic capacitor near the VCC pin for decoupling. The MultiSense output should have a low-pass filter (e.g., 1kOhm resistor and 10nF capacitor) to reduce noise.
Do not exceed the maximum supply voltage of 28V. Ensure the input pins are not left floating; use pull-down resistors to keep the outputs off during power-up. The MultiSense pin must not be connected directly to ground or VCC; use a resistor to set the current sense ratio. Verify that the load current does not exceed the maximum rating of 13.6A per channel to avoid triggering overcurrent protection.
