A39 Functional Description Device Operation. The A39 is a dual full-bridge low voltage motor driver capable of operating one stepper motor or up to two DC motors. MOSFET output stages substantially reduce the voltage drop and the power dissipation of the outputs of the A39 compared to typical drivers with bipolar transistors. Internal circuit protection includes thermal shutdown with hysteresis, clamp diodes, and crossover current protection. The A39 is designed for portable applications with a power-off (Sleep mode) current of 5 na typical, and an operating voltage of 2.5 to 5.5 V. The A39 logic inputs are 3 to 5 V logic compatible. Output current can be regulated by pulse width modulating (PWM) the inputs. The full-bridge outputs can be paralleled for higher-current applications (see figure 6). In conditions where the logic supply voltage drops below 2.5 V, both the sink and the source R DS(on) will increase beyond the specified values. In extreme cases, no power will be delivered to the motor(s). However, the device will not be damaged. In stepping operation, the device can drive in either full- or half-step mode. The stepping mode is set by the signal pattern on the INx terminals, as shown in the stepping timing diagrams. External PWM. Pulse width modulating the inputs allows the output current to be regulated. Slow decay mode is achieved by holding one input high while PWMing the other input. Holding one input low and PWMing the other input results in fast decay. See the External PWM diagram. Sleep Mode. Pulling all inputs to.5 V or less, sends the A39 into Sleep mode, during which it draws 5 na typical. Thermal Shutdown. The A39 will disable the outputs if the junction temperature reaches 65 C. When thermal shutdown is entered, after the junction temperature drops 5 C, the outputs will be re-enabled. Brake Mode. When driving DC motors, the A39 will go into Brake mode (turn on both sink drivers) when all inputs, INx, are logic. There is no protection during braking, so care must be taken to ensure that the peak current during braking does not exceed the absolute maximum current. 5 Northeast Cutoff Worcester, Massachusetts 65-36 U.S.A..58.853.5; www.allegromicro.com 7
