overview ev - vn7140as 2 / 7 docid026151 rev 2 1 overview it comes pre - assembled with vn7140as - e high - side driver. on board minimum set of electrical components (as for device datasheet recommendation) is enabling the user to directly connect the load, the power supply and the microcontroller without any additional effort in external component design and connection. the vn7140as - e is a single channel high - side driver manufactured using st proprietary vipower ? technology and housed in so - 8 package. the device is designed to drive 12 v automotive grounded loads through a 3 v and 5 v cmos - compatible inte rface and to provide protection and diagnostics. the device integrates also advanced protective functions such as load current limitation, overload active management by power limitation and overtemperature shutdown. a dedicated high precision proportional load current sense is available, in addition to the detection of overload and short circuit to ground, short to v cc and off - state open - load. a sense enable pin allows off - state diagnosis to be disabled during the module low - power mode as well as external s ense resistor sharing among similar devices. figure 1 : evaluation board schematic 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1 0 j4 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1 0 j1 vbat vbat c1 100nf pgnd pgnd d1 es1d l out led 1 2 j2 c2 10nf r8 2k2 r7 4k7 r3 15k +5v 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 1 1 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 j3 con18 in s_en multisense r1 15k i n rsense multisense s_en r6 15k cext 1 tp2 1 tp1 sen 2 gnd 3 inpu t 1 vcc 8 outpu t 7 outpu t 6 vcc 5 multisense 4 u1 so-8 vbat vbat r_u p in_pullu p in_pullu p pgnd pgnd pgnd pgnd pgnd
