Data Sheet
29319.44†
The A3957SA and A3957SLB are designed for driving one winding of a
bipolar stepper motor in a microstepping mode. The outputs are rated for
continuous output currents to
±1.5
A and operating voltages to 50 V. Internal
pulse-width modulated (PWM) current control combined with an internal
four-bit nonlinear digital-to-analog converter allows the motor current to be
controlled in full-, half-, quarter-, eighth-, or sixteenth-step (microstepping)
modes. Nonlinear increments minimize the number of control lines necessary
for microstepping. Microstepping provides for increased step resolution, and
reduces torque variations and resonance problems at low speed.
Internal circuitry determines whether the PWM current-control circuitry
operates in a slow (recirculating) current-decay mode, fast (regenerative)
current-decay mode, or in a mixed current-decay mode in which the off time
is divided into a period of fast current decay with the remainder of the fixed
off time spent in slow current decay. The combination of user-selectable
current-sensing resistor and reference voltage, digitally selected output
current ratio; and slow, fast, or mixed current-decay modes provides users
with a broad, variable range of motor control.
Internal circuit protection includes thermal shutdown with hysteresis,
transient-suppression diodes, and crossover current protection. Special
power-up sequencing is not required.
The A3957S— is supplied in a choice of two power packages; a 16-pin
dual-in-line plastic package (suffix ‘A’), and a 24-lead plastic SOIC with
copper heat-sink tabs (suffix ‘LB’). The power tab is at ground potential and
needs no electrical isolation.
