EV-VNH7100AS
VNH7100AS Evaluation Board
Data brief
additional effort in external component design and
connection.
VNH7100AS is a full bridge motor driver intended
for a wide range of automotive applications. The
device incorporates a dual monolithic high-side
driver and two low-side switches. Both switches
are designed using ST proprietary VIPower M0
technology that allows to efficiently integrate on
the same die a true Power MOSFET with an
intelligent signal/protection circuitry. The three
dies are assembled in SO-16N package on
electrically isolated leadframes.

Moreover, its fully symmetrical mechanical design
allows superior manufacturability at board level.
The input signals INA and INB can directly
interface the microcontroller to select the motor
direction and the brake condition. A SEL0 pin is
available to address the information available on
the MultiSense to the microcontroller. The
MultiSense pin allows to monitor the motor
current by delivering a current proportional to the
motor current value.
The PWM, up to 20 kHz, allows to control the
speed of the motor in all possible conditions.
