PBM3960 Datasheet | Ericsson

February 1999 PBM 3960/1 Microstepping Controller/ Dual Digital-to-Analog Converter Description PBM 3960/1 is a dual 7-bit+sign, Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) especially developed to be used together with the PBL 3771/1, Precision Stepper Motor driver in micro-stepping applications. The circuit has a set of input registers connected to an 8-bit data port for easy interfacing directly to a microprocessor. Two registers are used to store the data for each seven-bit DAC, the eighth bit being a sign bit (sign/ magnitude coding). A second set of registers are used for automatic fast/slow current decay control in conjunction with the PBL 3771/1, a feature that greatly improves high-speed...
