Features
The TMC239 / TMC239A (1) is a dual full bridge driver IC for bipolar stepper motor control applications. The TMC239 is realized in a HVCMOS technology and directly drives eight external LowRDS-ON high efficiency MOSFETs. It supports more than 6000mA coil current. The low power dissipation makes the TMC239 an optimum choice for drives, where a high reliability is desired. With additional drivers, motor current and voltage can be increased. The driver transistors can be chosen depending on output current or environment temperature.
