VN16B ISO HIGH SIDE SMART POWER SOLID STATE RELAY is a monolithic device made using STMicroelectronics VIPower Technology, intended for driving resistive or inductive loads with one side grounded.
The VN16B is a monolithic device designed using VviPower Technology to drive resistive or inductive loads where one side is grounded. It features built-in protection mechanisms including thermal shut-down for over-temperature and short circuits, as well as under-voltage protection.
Key characteristics include 5V logic level compatibility, an open-drain diagnostic output that indicates fault conditions such as open load or stuck-on states, and fast demagnetization of inductive loads via a negative voltage clamp at turn-off.
| Thermal Shut-down Temperature | 140 to 180 °C |

Yes, it has an open drain diagnostic output that indicates open load in off state and on state, output shorted to Vcc, and overtemperature.
The simplest method is to insert a Schottky diode between pin 1 (GND) and ground.
