( Top View )
The AH5798 is a single chip solution for driving single-coil
brushless direct current (BLDC) fans and motors. The
integrated full-bridge driver output stage uses soft switching
to minimize audible switching noise and electromagnetic
interference (EMI) providing a low noise solution.

To help protect the motor coil, the AH5798 provides Rotor
Lock Protection which shuts down output drive if rotor lock is
detected. The device automatically re-starts when the rotor
lock is removed. Over temperature shutdown provides
thermal protection for the device.

A Tachometer output is provided by open-drain Frequency
Generator (FG) Pin which allows external interface to monitor
motor rotation or speed. The FG output is the magnetic
change frequency.
