The VNL5050N3-E / VNL5050S5-E OMNIFET III fully protected low-side driver is a low-side driver launched by STMicroelectronics. It has a maximum current of 19A, ESD protection, overvoltage clamp, thermal shutdown, current and power limitation, ultra-low standby current, ultra-low electromagnetic susceptibility and compliance with the European Union 2002/95/EC directive.
The VNL5050N3-E and VNL5050S5-E are monolithic devices made using STMicroelectronics VIPower Technology, intended for driving resistive or inductive loads with one side connected to the battery. These Omnifet III fully protected low-side drivers include built-in thermal shutdown to protect the chip from overtemperature and short-circuit conditions.
