The VN610SP from STMicroelectronics is a high-side power switch designed for general-purpose load driving applications. Part of the VIPower™ series, this N-channel MOSFET-based driver integrates advanced protection features and delivers a robust 45A maximum output current with a low 10mΩ (max) Rds(on) for efficient power handling. Operating within a 5.5V to 36V load voltage range, it eliminates the need for an external supply voltage (Vcc/Vdd), simplifying system design. Packaged in a surface-mount PWRSO10 format, the VN610SP is ideal for space-constrained applications requiring high reliability.
The VN610SP excels in applications demanding high-current switching with minimal losses:
The VN610SP combines high-performance switching, integrated protections, and compact packaging, making it a versatile solution for high-current load driving. Its auto-restart capability and low Rds(on) set it apart from conventional power switches, ensuring reliability in harsh environments. While marked as obsolete, its design advantages remain relevant for legacy systems or replacements with equivalent VIPower™ series devices. Engineers should consider this IC for efficiency-critical and protection-sensitive designs.
