Unitrode UC3717
The UC3717 has been designed to control and drive the current in one winding of a bipolar stepper motor. The circuit consists of an LSTTL-compatible logic input, a current sensor, a monostable and an output stage with built-in protection diodes. The UC1717 is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, the UC2717 is characterized for -25°C to +85°C, and the UC3717 is characterized for 0°C to +70°C.FEATURES
