Introduction
This application note describes the STEVAL-IFP001V1 hardware implementation. It focus
on PCB design which is critical for EMC immunity robustness and thermal management.
The VN808CM-E is a monolithic device designed in STMicroelectronics VIPower M0-3
technology. The product is intended for driving any kind of load with one side connected to
ground. It can be driven by using a 5.0V or 3.3V logic supply. This allows realizing an output
stage without optical decoupling or another level-shifting. Active current limitation, combined
with thermal shutdown and automatic restart, protect the device against accidental or longtime short circuit and overload.
The complete solution is implemented on a double-face board with only two copper layers
which is cost-effective, also precision of routing is cost-optimized.
STEVAL-IFP001V1 is delivered in a set with CD-ROM including board fabrication data
(Gerber files), this user manual and related devices documentation (for latest information,
please have a look at www.st.com).

Connectors
The application uses two input connectors, one output and one supply voltage terminal.
Both input connectors (JP1 and JP2) provide the same signals, the difference is in type and
pinout. The location of connector JP1 ensures better compatibility with existing tools
(primarily used for motor control).

Connection description
Connection description
The application is connected as shown in Figure 6. It is not intended for a standalone
operation and a control unit is necessary to provide the input signals. The control unit can be
connected either to connector JP1 or JP2. Resistors R1 to R9 protect the control unit and
prevent latch-up. Their value can be extended up to approximately 10kW depending on the
application requirements.
Output states of the VN808CM-E device are monitored by LEDs DS2 to DS9. DS1 is used
for diagnostic purposes. The STATUS pin of the VN808CM-E with its open source structure
provides typically 3mA current in case of over-temperature conditions. GND of the device is
typically connected by jumper W1. To ensure the reverse polarity protection, replace this
jumper by a parallel combination of a resistor (e.g. 1kW) and diode (universal or schottky) as
shown in Figure 5.
Output capacitors C1 to C8 improve application EMC immunity robustness, especially for
compliance with standard 61000-4-6 - Immunity to conducted disturbances.

Thermal management
Thermal management
The PCB includes a 14 x 53mm heatsink on both the top and bottom layers. Both heatsinks
are thermally interconnected with vias. Another via grid is placed directly under the device
exposed pad. This grid creates a low-resistive thermal connection of the device thermal slug
to the bottom copper layer. Via drill holes should be approximately 0.3mm in diameter and
the orthogonal grid approximately 1.2mm as shown in Figure 7.

EMC Immunity testing
The application was tested according to electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) immunity
standards IEC61000-4-4 (Fast Transient Burst) and IEC61000-4-5 (High Energy Surge).
The Fast Transient Burst test lasted approximately 1 minute with ±4 kV and a repetition rate
of 5 kHz. All channels were in Switching mode with a frequency of approximately 1Hz. The
burst signal was applied using a capacitive coupling clamp tool.
The High Energy Surge test was performed only in Differential mode (no protective GND
available). The signal was coupled by a 42Ω impedance. The test contained five positive
and five negative discharges. The repetition rate was 1 discharge per minute.
The application worked properly during and after the tests. Table 2 shows the test results.
