Working Principle

The device is based on a double full-bridge driver with a wide array of embedded features to provide the user with higher performance and ease of implementation. It is capable of supplying a high source or sink current of up to 10 A, whilst supplying a gate drive voltage up to 10 V.

In order to drive the load, the device has both input logic pins, IN1 and IN2, related to the corresponding output driver, OUT1 and OUT2, as well as output enable pins (EN1, EN2) to enable the corresponding output. It also features logic signals for current limiting, braking, and fault reporting. Additionally, the device has two analog voltage signals (VREF1, VREF2) that enable the user to adjust the mid-point voltage and slope of the driver outputs.

The device is internally configured as a full-bridge that can be driven with two symmetrical complementary waveforms. This feature enables the device to provide a current to the load that is proportional to the difference between these two waveforms, providing a linear output current control. This allows for the efficient control of motor applications.

The device is also provided with a range of extra features, such as the proportional current limiting capability that enables the device to be used in load braking applications. The device also includes an electronic brake feature, when enabled the driver output is immediately pulled low, thereby providing a fast and precise braking action.

The internal protection features provided by the device ensure it is very robust and constantly protected against switching surges and thermal issues, thus enabling the device to operate safely even under the most demanding conditions.
