1Extended VDD range affects RDS(on) and Bx.
2Total Output On-Resistance = RDS(on)Q1 + RDS(on)Q4 , or RDS(on)Q2 + RDS(on)Q3 , where Qx refers to the internal full-bridge transistors.
3Device initiates braking algorithm if the CONTROL pin is pulled to GND for longer than the maximum specified CONTROL Prebraking Time.
41 G (gauss) = 0.1 mT (millitesla).
