DESCRIPTION
The VNH2SP30-E is a full bridge motor driver
intended for a wide range of automotive
applications. The device incorporates a dual
monolithic High-Side drivers and two Low-Side
switches. The High-Side driver switch is designed
using STMicroelectronic's well known and proven
proprietary VIPower
TM
M0 technology that allows
to efficiently integrate on the same die a true
Power MOSFET with an intelligent signal/
protection circuitry.
Figure 1. Package
The Low-Side switches are vertical MOSFETs
manufactured using STMicroelectronic's
proprietary EHD (`STripFETTM') process.The three
dice are assembled in MultiPowerSO-30 package
on electrically isolated leadframes. This package,
specifically designed for the harsh automotive
environment offers improved thermal performance
thanks to exposed die pads. Moreover, its fully
symmetrical mechanical design allows superior
manufacturability at board level. The input signals
IN
A
and IN
B
can directly interface to the
microcontroller to select the motor direction and
the brake condition. The DIAG
A
/EN
A
or DIAG
B
/
EN
B
, when connected to an external pull-up
resistor, enable one leg of the bridge. They also
provide a feedback digital diagnostic signal. The
normal condition operation is explained in the truth
table on page 14. The CS pin allows to monitor the
motor current by delivering a current proportional
to its value. The PWM, up to 20KHz, lets us to
control the speed of the motor in all possible
conditions. In all cases, a low level state on the
PWM pin will turn off both the LS
A
and LS
B
switches. When PWM rises to a high level, LS
A
or
LS
B
turn on again depending on the input pin
state.

Open drain bidirectional logic pins.These pins must be connected to an external pull up resistor. When
externally pulled low, they disable half-bridge A or B. In case of fault detection (thermal shutdown of
a High-Side FET or excessive ON state voltage drop across a Low-Side FET), these pins are pulled
low by the device (see truth table in fault condition).
CS
Analog current sense output. This output sources a current proportional to the motor current. The
information can be read back as an analog voltage across an external resistor.

LOGIC CONTROL
Allows the turn-on and the turn-off of the High Side and the Low Side
switches according to the truth table.
OVERVOLTAGE + UNDERVOLTAGE
Shut-down the device outside the range [5.5V..16V] for the battery voltage.
HIGH SIDE AND LOW SIDE CLAMP
VOLTAGE
Protect the High Side and the Low Side switches from the high voltage on
the battery line in all configuration for the motor.
HIGH SIDE AND LOW SIDE DRIVER
Drive the gate of the concerned switch to allow a proper R
DS(on)
for the leg
of the bridge.
LINEAR CURRENT LIMITER
Limits the motor current, by reducing the High Side Switch gate-source
voltage when short-circuit to ground occurs.
OVERTEMPERATURE PROTECTION
In case of short-circuit with the increase of the junction's temperature,
shuts-down the concerned High Side to prevent its degradation and to
protect the die.
FAULT DETECTION
Signalize an abnormal behavior of the switches in the half-bridge A or B by
pulling low the concerned ENx/DIAGx pin.
