uPD16836 Overview
The µPD16836 is a three-phase spindle motor driver for CD-ROM drives which consists of a CMOS control circuit and MOS bridge output. It employs a three-phase full-wave PWM driving method and a MOS FET in the output stage to lower the power consumption pared with drivers using conventional bipolar transistors.
uPD16836 Key Features
- Low ON resistance (Sum of ON resistance of top and bottom transistors) Ron = 1.2 Ω (TYP.)
- Low power consumption using three-phase full-wave PWM driving system
- START/STOP pins enable braking operation in STOP mode
- Standby pin turns off internal circuitry in standby mode
- Low current consumption: IDD = 3mA (MAX.), IDD(ST) = 100 µA (MAX.)
- Internal thermal shutdown circuit
- Internal overcurrent protection circuit (can be externally set)
- Internal FG output function
- Reverse prevention circuit
- 24-pin plastic SOP (375 mil)
