STMicroelectronics VNH5xx VNH7xx Automotive H-Bridge Drivers
STMicroelectronics VNH Automotive H-Bridge Drivers are integrated H-bridges that are intended for a wide range of automotive applications driving DC motors. The device incorporates a dual monolithic high-side driver and two low-side switches.All switches are designed using STMicroelectronics well known and proven proprietary VIPower® M0 technology that allows to efficiently integrate on the same die a true Power MOSFET with an intelligent signal/protection circuitry.
These packages, specifically designed for the harsh automotive environment, offer improved thermal performance thanks to exposed die pads. Moreover, their fully symmetrical mechanical design allows superior manufacturability at board level.

Evaluation Boards
STMicroelectronics offers a number of different evaluation boards and development tools for use with the VNH Automotive H-Bridge Drivers. They are each preassembled with the specific high-side driver.
EV-VNH7070AS/EV-VNH7100AS/EV-VNH7040AY
STMicroelectronics EV-VNH7070AS/EV-VNH7100AS/EV-VNH7040AY Evaluation Boards connect STMicroelectronics® VIPower® M0-7 H-Bridge drivers into existing prototype circuity. These boards come preassembled with either a VNH7070AS, VNH7100AS or VNH7040AY H-Bridges. An on board minimum set of electrical components allow for directly connecting the load, power supply and microcontroller without any additional effort in external component design and connection.
