General Description
The AM9800 is a direct PWM driver IC designed for
three-phase brushless motors. Also, by using highly
silent PWM drive, switching current of the phase
with a smooth slope reduces the sound of slewing
motor, and makes high-efficiency drive a reality by a
synchronous commutation.
The device is build-in lock protection. When the fan
is locked, the device will enter the lockup protection
mode. It is also equipped with thermal shutdown
function and forward or reverse rotation selection. In
normal operation, supply current is less than 2mA,
but in PWM=0 mode it is just around 20µA.
The AM9800 is available in SSOP-16 package.
