CS3717A
1A H-Bridge Stepper Motor Driver
Description
Features
The CS3717A controls and drives
one phase of a bipolar stepper motor driver with four internal clamp
The power section is a full H-bridge
Full/Half /Quarter Step
Operation
ꢀ
with chopper control of the phase
current. Current levels may be
selected in three steps by means of
two logic inputs which select one of
three current comparators. When
both of these inputs are high the
device is disabled. A separate logic
input controls the direction of cur-
rent flow. A monostable, pro-
diodes for current recirculation. An
external connection to the lower
emitters is available for the insertion
of a sensing resistor. Two CS3717A’s
and several external components
form a complete stepper motor drive
subsystem.
Output Current Up to 1 A
