Sanyo Electric LB11946
The LB11946 is a stepping motor driver IC that implements PWM current control bipolar drive with a fixed off time. This IC features 15 current setting levels using a fixed VREF voltage and support for microstepping drive from 1-2 phase excitation drive to 4W1-2 phase excitation drive. This device is optimal for driving stepping motors such as those used for carriage drive and paper feed in printers.FEATURES
● PWM current control (with a fixed off time)● Logic input serial-parallel converter (allows 1-2, W1-2, 2W1-2, and 4W1-2 phase excitation drive)
● Current attenuation switching function (with slow decay, fast decay, and mixed decay modes)
● Built-in upper and lower side diodes
● Simultaneous on state prevention function (through current prevention)
● Noise canceller function
● Thermal shutdown circuit
● Shutoff on low logic system voltage circuit
● Low-power mode control pin Specifications
