Description
The M54646AP is a semiconductor IC to drive bipolar stepper motors by controlling winding current with reference to
a designated current level.
Features
•
•
•
•
•
Wide driver voltage range (10 – 40V)
Wide output current control range (20 – 800mA)
Bipolar and constant current control
Built-in flywheel diode
Built-in thermal protection circuit
Application
Office automation equipment such as printers, FDDs, HDDs and facsimiles
Function
M54646AP Integrated Circuit drives two-phase bipolar stepper motors while controlling winding current: It controls
winding current direction by inputting phases (pins 14 and 15) and, at the same time, controls winding current
amperage with terminals V
R
(pins (2) and (27)).
Provided with control circuits that output two phases, this IC is sufficient to drive a two-phase bipolar stepper motor.
