STMicroelectronics VN9008AJ Evaluation Board

STMicroelectronics VN9008AJ Evaluation Board offers convenience and efficiency in a compact package. The STMicroelectronics VN9008AJ is designed using ST VIPower M09 technology. This single-channel driver comes pre-assembled with the VN9008AJ high-side driver, ready for direct connection. With a minimum onboard set of electrical components, the EV-VN9008AJ eliminates the need for additional effort in external component design and connection, making it a highly user-friendly option for automotive grounded load needs. Additionally, with its 3V and 5V CMOS compatibility and protection and diagnostic features, the EV-VN9008AJ provides a secure and reliable driving solution housed in a PowerSSO-16 package.
