Description
The L6470 device, realized in analog mixed
signal technology, is an advanced fully integrated
solution suitable for driving two-phase bipolar
stepper motors with microstepping. It integrates
a dual low R
DS(on)
DMOS full bridge with all of the
power switches equipped with an accurate on-
chip current sensing circuitry suitable for non-
dissipative current control and overcurrent
protection. Thanks to a unique control system,
a true 1/128 steps resolution is achieved. The
digital control core can generate user defined
motion profiles with acceleration, deceleration,
speed or target position, easily programmed
through a dedicated registers set. All commands
and data registers, including those used to set
analogue values (i.e. current control value,
current protection trip point, deadtime, PWM
frequency, etc.) are sent through a standard
5-Mbit/s SPI. A very rich set of protections
(thermal, low bus voltage, overcurrent, motor
stall) allows the design of a fully protected
application, as required by the most demanding
motor control applications.
