About this manual

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.

Frequently asked questions

Does the device have diagnostic capabilities?

Yes, it has an open drain diagnostic output that indicates open load in off state and on state, output shorted to Vcc, and overtemperature.

How does the device protect against reverse battery voltage?

The simplest method is to insert a Schottky diode between pin 1 (GND) and ground.
