VNQ5050KTR-E Обзор

The STMicroelectronics VNQ5050KTR-E is a monolithic quad-channel high-side driver delivering up to 13A per channel in a PowerSSO-24 exposed-pad package, designed for automotive and industrial loads. It operates across a 4.5V to 36V supply range with 3.0V CMOS-compatible logic inputs, integrating four N-channel power MOSFETs with vertical current-flow structures on a single die.

A high-side driver is a power switch that connects a load to the positive supply rail rather than to ground, providing protection, diagnostics, and PWM capability. In the taxonomy of semiconductor switches, this places it under power MOSFET drivers -> smart power switches -> power management ICs -> semiconductor. High-side configuration is preferred in automotive body electronics because it allows the load to be referenced to chassis ground, simplifying wiring and enabling direct short-to-ground detection.

Key features include a typical 13.5A per-channel current limit, 0.5 µA standby current for battery-saving key-off operation, very fast demagnetization of inductive loads via integrated freewheeling, and on-state / off-state open-load detection. The device also includes reverse-battery protection, loss-of-ground protection, overload protection with active power limitation, and thermal shutdown. The status flag pin multiplexes diagnostic information back to the host MCU.

Built on ST's VIPower M0-5 technology, the VNQ5050KTR-E combines vertical power MOSFETs with bipolar/CMOS/DMOS control and protection circuitry monolithically. The embedded charge pump drives the gate above VCC, supporting 100% duty-cycle operation at low battery voltages. The architecture is engineered for harsh automotive environments including load-dump transients (tested per ISO 7637) and jump-start conditions.

Typical applications include automotive lighting (headlamps, tail lamps, turn signals), body control modules driving solenoids and DC motors, and industrial programmable logic controllers switching relays. The quadruple channel fits the four-lamp-per-rear-lamp-cluster topology used widely in passenger cars. The exposed thermal pad of the PowerSSO-24 package must be soldered to a substantial PCB copper area to maintain junction temperature under full-load conditions, especially when all four channels are active simultaneously.

Типичное применение

VNQ5050KTR-E подходит для 6 применениеs: Automotive Rear Lamp Cluster Driver, Industrial Relay and Solenoid Driver, Body Control Module (BCM) Outputs, Headlamp Leveling and AFS Actuator Driver, Truck and Bus 24V Power Distribution, Industrial PLC Discrete Output Module.

🚗

Automotive Rear Lamp Cluster Driver

Per channel the VNQ5050KTR-E delivers 13.5 A continuous and tolerates cold-lamp inrush via active power limitation, while its very low 0.5 µA standby current preserves the vehicle battery during long parking. The four channels map cleanly to tail/stop/turn/reverse lamps in a typical rear-cluster topology, replacing four discrete high-side MOSFETs and shrinking PCB area by roughly 80 %. On-state and off-state open-load detection flags broken filaments without extra wiring, supporting the ISO 13207 lamp-monitoring requirements. The PowerSSO-24 exposed pad dissipates 4 channel aggregate heat into the body-grounded chassis copper, keeping Tj under 150 C in 85 C ambient with derating per the datasheet curves.

🏭

Industrial Relay and Solenoid Driver

The 4.5 V to 36 V operating range and very-fast inductive demagnetization of the VNQ5050KTR-E let it switch 24 V industrial solenoids without external freewheel diodes. Integrated loss-of-ground protection prevents catastrophic failure if the load returns are mis-wired during field installation, while thermal shutdown and overload handling survive the inrush of large contactors. Per-channel status flags feed the PLC diagnostic inputs to localize a stuck solenoid, and 100% duty-cycle operation eliminates the off-time slicing common in slower controllers.

🚗

Body Control Module (BCM) Outputs

Body control modules integrate HVAC flaps, mirror heaters, seat heaters, and lighting - all 12 V battery-fed loads that the VNQ5050KTR-E can drive from a single part. The 3.0 V CMOS logic-level inputs connect directly to modern BCM MCUs without level shifters, and the multiplexed status-flag pin broadcasts four channels of diagnostic information through one GPIO. AEC-Q100 qualification and reverse-battery protection satisfy the automotive stress tests run per the BCM specification, including load-dump per ISO 7637.

🚗

Headlamp Leveling and AFS Actuator Driver

Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS) actuators and headlamp-leveling DC motors draw short bursts of 5 to 10 A through PWM, which the VNQ5050KTR-E handles via its CMOS input and internal charge pump. Very-fast demagnetization prevents the inductive kick of the motor's armature from arcing the switch, extending connector life, while the open-load detection catches a disconnected stepper coil before the headlamp malfunctions on the road. The 100% duty cycle supports continuous high-beam operation without thermal trips.

🚗

Truck and Bus 24V Power Distribution

Commercial vehicle 24 V battery systems (per ISO 7637-2 commercial transients) place higher energy demands on body-electronics switches, and the VNQ5050KTR-E's 36 V absolute-maximum VCC plus robust reverse-battery protection accommodate that. Four channels per chip drive HVAC flaps, mirror defrosters, and interior lighting in a typical cab distribution module. AEC-Q100 grade-1 qualification covers the wider -40 C to +125 C operating profile expected behind commercial-truck dashboards.

🏭

Industrial PLC Discrete Output Module

Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) discrete-output cards need 4, 8, or 16 channels of switchable 24 V drive per board, and the VNQ5050KTR-E provides four channels in the compact PowerSSO-24 footprint ideal for high-density modules. The 0.5 µA standby helps the PLC meet IEC 61131-2 power-budget limits on field-bus-sensed outputs, while the open-load detection flags a broken sensor-wire or actuator coil in industrial automation. Status feedback via the flag pin enables IEC 61131-3 diagnostic reporting.

What is the VNQ5050KTR-E and what does it do?
The VNQ5050KTR-E is a monolithic quad-channel high-side driver from STMicroelectronics, housed in a PowerSSO-24 exposed-pad package. According to the ST datasheet, it is built on VIPower M0-5 technology and is designed to drive resistive or inductive loads with one side connected to ground in automotive and industrial systems. Each of the four channels can deliver up to 13.5 A typical with active current limitation, making it a 4-in-1 solid-state relay for body-electronics loads.
What is the operating voltage range of VNQ5050KTR-E?
The VNQ5050KTR-E operates from 4.5 V to 36 V on the VCC supply pin, covering nominal 12 V automotive battery conditions plus load-dump headroom. Per the ST datasheet, the device survives jump-start transients and is reverse-battery protected through an external ground-reference network, making it suitable for 12 V passenger-vehicle buses and 24 V commercial-vehicle rails with appropriate external components.
What is the difference between VNQ5050KTR-E and VNQ5050AKTR-E?
The VNQ5050KTR-E and VNQ5050AKTR-E share the same PowerSSO-24 footprint and VIPower M0-5 process, but per cross-reference data from ETEI and Utmel they belong to different product revisions within the VNQ5050 family. The 'K' revision is the newer/currently-active variant. Always confirm revision state on the manufacturer product page before substituting, as pin assignment and protection thresholds differ slightly between A and K suffixes.
What is the standby current of VNQ5050KTR-E?
The VNQ5050KTR-E draws only 0.5 µA (typical) of standby supply current when all four channels are off, per the ST datasheet. This very-low Iq is critical for body-control modules that remain connected to the battery even when the ignition is off, preventing quiescent drain from discharging the vehicle battery over weeks of parking.
Does VNQ5050KTR-E support PWM for LED dimming?
Yes, the VNQ5050KTR-E supports PWM dimming of lamps and LEDs through its 3.0 V CMOS-compatible input pin per channel. The internal charge pump and fast demagnetization stage allow high-frequency PWM operation while protecting against inductive kickback, making the device suitable for DRL (daytime running light) and tail-lamp dimming functions.
Where to buy VNQ5050KTR-E online?
The VNQ5050KTR-E is in stock at DigiKey (DigiKey part 497-4037-1-ND), Mouser, and Heisener according to distributor listings retrieved 2026-10-11. Distributor pricing starts around USD 6.30 at qty 1 with volume breaks near USD 4.05 at qty 1000. Sourced-component traceability (date code, lot, country of origin) should be requested for automotive PPAP builds.
What is the lead time for VNQ5050KTR-E?
Distributor listings retrieved 2026-10-11 from Heisener quote the VNQ5050KTR-E as 'Can Ship Immediately' with an estimated delivery window of Sep 15 to Sep 20. For automotive Tier-1 production orders, lead time is typically 8-12 weeks when booked directly with ST; consult your franchised distributor for current factory stock and safety stock at the franchised distributor.
Is the VNQ5050KTR-E AEC-Q100 qualified?
Yes, the VNQ5050KTR-E is AEC-Q100 qualified per the ST datasheet family documentation. This automotive qualification covers temperature grade, HBM/CDM ESD, and reliability stress testing required for under-hood and body-electronic automotive deployments. Designers should still validate PPAP submissions for their specific ECU build with their franchised automotive supplier.
VNQ5050KTR-E vs VNQ5E050MKTR-E - which is better for four-channel lamp driving?
Both parts are ST quad-channel high-side drivers, but per Utmel comparison the VNQ5E050M is a newer M0-5R generation device with lower on-resistance and improved diagnostics. For new lamp-driver designs requiring the latest protections, the VNQ5E050MKTR-E is preferred; the VNQ5050KTR-E remains a valid drop-in for existing PCB layouts where the K footprint is already established.
What is the best cross-brand drop-in replacement for VNQ5050KTR-E?
The VNQ5050KTR-E occupies a specialized quad-channel high-side niche dominated by ST's VIPower portfolio. Per cross-reference searches and Site MPN preference, the best in-brand drop-in alternative is the VNQ5050AKTR-E (same package, earlier revision). For new designs where the layout can change, the ST VNQ5050AKTR or VNQ5E050MKTR-E are also considered, as cross-brand equivalents with the same PowerSSO-24 footprint are uncommon in the open market.
When should I choose VNQ5050KTR-E over a discrete MOSFET?
Choose the VNQ5050KTR-E over a discrete N-MOSFET plus discrete gate driver when you need integrated reverse-battery, open-load, and loss-of-ground protection in a single footprint. The monolithic integration shrinks PCB area by roughly 80 % versus four discrete high-side channels, and the multiplexed status flag pin reduces MCU GPIO count for diagnostic feedback.
Where to download VNQ5050KTR-E datasheet PDF?
The official VNQ5050KTR-E datasheet PDF is hosted at ST's product-resource center at the URL https://www.st.com/resource/en/datasheet/vnq5050k-e.pdf. Per third-party datasheet aggregators (AllDatasheet, Digchip), the PDF is approximately 13 pages covering absolute maximums, block diagram, application schematic on page 19 (per the Digchip preview), and thermal performance curves.
Where to find VNQ5050KTR-E pinout diagram?
The VNQ5050KTR-E pinout is published in section 'Pin description' of the ST datasheet (https://www.st.com/resource/en/datasheet/vnq5050k-e.pdf) and visualized at Digchip and Alldatasheet. The PowerSSO-24 package has 24 exposed-pad leads arranged around an EP, with four input pins (IN1 to IN4), four status-flag pins, four output pins (OUT1 to OUT4), VCC, and GND plus the central thermal pad.
What load current can one VNQ5050KTR-E channel deliver continuously?
Each channel of the VNQ5050KTR-E can deliver up to 13.5 A typical of continuous load current per the ST datasheet, limited by the on-state resistance of 50 mOhm and the resulting I^2R dissipation. The active power-limitation circuit clamps inrush currents during cold-lamp and capacitive-load events. For continuous operation at 13.5 A per channel (54 A aggregate), the PCB copper area must be sized per the datasheet thermal derating curves.
What are the key engineering specifications of VNQ5050KTR-E?
Key specifications of the VNQ5050KTR-E are: 4 channels, 13.5 A continuous per channel, 50 mOhm on-resistance, 4.5 V to 36 V VCC, 3.0 V CMOS inputs, 0.5 µA standby, on-state and off-state open-load detection, reverse-battery protection, loss-of-ground protection, thermal shutdown, AEC-Q100 qualification, and PowerSSO-24 exposed-pad package. These make it a turnkey solution for automotive 12 V body loads including lamps, solenoids, and brushed DC motors.

Руководство по выбору

Choose the VNQ5050KTR-E for new 12 V automotive body-electronic designs that need four independent protected high-side outputs in a single PowerSSO-24 footprint - rear-lamp clusters, BCM channels, and AFS actuators are the canonical fits. Choose the VNQ5050AKTR-E or VNQ5050AKTR (Site MPN: VNQ5050PEPTR-E is a related ST high-side family) only when your existing PCB was laid out against the A revision and you cannot re-spin. Move to the VNQ5160KTR-E when per-channel current above 14 A is required, or to the VNQ5E050MKTR-E when wanting the latest M0-5R-generation diagnostics on the same footprint. For discrete single-channel outputs at higher currents (40 A+), consider ST's VND5160J-E or VND5050K-E single-channel switches instead.

Заметки по проектированию

At full 4-channel activity with 13.5 A per channel continuous, the VNQ5050KTR-E dissipates roughly P = 4 * I^2 * R = 4 * 13.5^2 * 0.05 = 36 W. The PowerSSO-24 exposed pad must be soldered to a copper area of at least 6 cm^2 on a FR-4 board to keep junction rise under 50 C, per the datasheet thermal curves. For higher ambient designs, consider reducing to 8 A per channel or upgrading the PCB to IMS (insulated metal substrate) for direct chassis mounting. Estimated thermal resistance from datasheet curves is 5 C/W at 6 cm^2, giving a junction rise of 180 C if all 36 W are realized - derating to 50 % load per channel is advisable in sealed enclosures.

Place a 100 nF ceramic decoupling capacitor plus a bulk electrolytic of 10 µF or more immediately at the VCC pin to absorb load-dump transients. The 0.5 µA standby figure assumes clean supplies; under-voltage lockout hysteresis around 4.5 V prevents inadvertent turn-on during cranking drops. The status pin is open-drain and needs a pull-up of 4.7 kOhm to 5 V at the host MCU; do not leave it floating because the diagnostic engine continuously polls during off-state open-load detection. The four output pins (OUT1-OUT4) should be routed with 2 oz copper pours on the outer layers, and the exposed pad should have 6 or more thermal vias to the inner plane.

Avoid ground loops by tying the VNQ5050KTR-E's GND pin directly to a low-inductance chassis ground close to the battery return - the loss-of-ground protection relies on this single-point reference. Cold-lamp filaments draw a 10x inrush, which the active power limitation handles but only if VCC stays above 6 V; in severely cranking engines the inrush may exceed the limit threshold and foldback to a low current. Finally, do not connect 5 V TTL signals directly to the inputs unless the datasheet confirms 3.0 V logic compatibility - older VIPower M0-3 parts require 5 V, while the M0-5 VNQ5050KTR-E expects 3.0 V CMOS levels.
