Determining the output current Io (motor coil current)
The output current Io can be set to any value by connecting
an external resistor R
X
across pin 3 and all of pins 2, 4 and
5. Fig. A, B and C show the relationship between the
external resistor and the output current, the supply voltage
and the output current, and the output current and the
temperature, respectively.

Thermal design
In SI-7115B, the avalanche diode of the phase-switching
transistor is operated in breakdown condition and the en-
ergy built up in the inductance of the motor coil is dissipated
as heat of the transistor. Hence, when the motor rotates,
the internal heat dissipation increases compared with when
the motor is stopped.
Therefore, the internal heat dissipation of 7115B can be
computed from the data taken with actual load through the
following procedures.
(1) Vary the rotation speed of the motor within the actual
operating range in a circuit under actual load conditions
and measure the supply current I
CC
and the correspond-
ing output current I
O1
and I
O2
.

(3) Obtain the heatsink area corresponding to the ambient
temperature Ta from the derating curve.
(4) Verify that the temperature of the aluminum base plate
of 7115B or adjacent heatsinks is below 85°C (equiva-
lent to max. ambient temperature) when operating un-

Handling Precautions
(Note: The SI-7502 is applicable for item (2) only.)
For details, refer to the relevant product specifications.
(1) Tightening torque:
The torque to be applied in tightening screws when mounting the IC on a
heatsink should be below 49N•m.
(2) Solvent:
Do not use the following solvents:
Substances that
Chlorine-based solvents
: Trichloroethylene,
dissolve the package
Trichloroethane, etc.
Aromatic hydrogen compounds : Benzene, Toluene,
Xylene, etc.
Ketone and Acetone group solvents
Substances that
weaken the package
(3) Silicone grease:
The silicone grease to be used between the aluminum base plate of the hybrid
IC and the heatsink should be any of the following:
• G-746
• YG6260
• SC102
SHINETSU CHEMICAL INDUSTRIES CO., LTD.
TOSHIBA SILICONE CO., LTD.
DOW CORNING TORAY SILICONE CO., LTD.
Gasoline, Benzine and Kerosene
Please pay sufficient attention in selecting silicone grease since oil in some
grease may penetrate the product, which will result in an extremely short
product life.
Others
• Resistance against radiation
Resistance against radiation was not considered in the development of these ICs
because it is assumed that they will be used in ordinary environment.
