AMIS-30511
Micro-Stepping Motor Driver
Introduction
The AMIS−30511 is a micro−stepping stepper motor driver for
bipolar stepper motors. The chip is connected through I/O pins and a
SPI interface with an external microcontroller. The AMIS−30511
contains a current−translation table and takes the next micro−step
depending on the clock signal on the “NXT” input pin and the status of
the “DIR” (=direction) register or input pin. The chip provides a
so−called “speed and load angle” output. This allows the creation of
stall detection algorithms, step loss detection, and control loops based
on load−angle to adjust torque and speed. It is using a proprietary
PWM algorithm for reliable current control.
The AMIS−30511 is implemented in I2T100 technology, enabling
both high−voltage analog circuitry and digital functionality on the
same chip. The chip is fully compatible with the automotive voltage
requirements.
The AMIS−30511 is ideally suited for general−purpose stepper
motor applications in the automotive, industrial, medical, and marine
environment.
