The inputs can also be used for PWM control of the motor speed. When controlling a winding with PWM, when the
drive current is interrupted, the inductive nature of the motor requires that the current must continue to flow. This is
called recirculation current. To handle this recirculation current, the H-bridge can operate in two different states, fast
decay or slow decay. In fast decay mode, the H-bridge is disabled and recirculation current flows through the body
diodes; in slow decay, the motor winding is shorted.
To PWM using fast decay, the PWM signal is applied to one xIN pin while the other is held low; to use slow decay,
one xIN pin is held high.

Current Control
The current through the motor windings may be limited, or controlled, by a fixed-frequency PWM current regulation,
or current chopping. For DC motors, current control is used to limit the start-up and stall current of the motor. For
stepper motors, current control is often used at all times.
When an H-bridge is enabled, current rises through the winding at a rate dependent on the DC voltage and
inductance of the winding. If the current reaches the current chopping threshold, the bridge disables the current until
the beginning of the next PWM cycle. Note that immediately after the current is enabled, the voltage on the xISEN
pin is ignored for a fixed period of time before en

If a 1-Ω sense resistor is used, the chopping current will be 200 mV/1 Ω = 200 mA.
Once the chopping current threshold is reached, the H-bridge switches to slow decay mode. Winding current is recirculated by enabling both of the low-side FETs in the bridge. This state is held until the beginning of the next
fixed-frequency PWM cycle.
Note that if current control is not needed, the xISEN pins should be connected directly to ground.
Sleep Mode
ar
ed
fo
r
Driving nSLEEP low will put the device into a low power sleep state. In this state, the H-bridges are disabled, the
gate drive charge pump is stopped, all internal logic is reset, and all internal clocks are stopped. All inputs are
ignored until nSLEEP returns inactive high. When returning from sleep mode, some time (up to 1 ms) needs to pass
before the motor driver becomes fully operational. To make the board design simple, the nSLEEP can be pulled up
to the supply (VM). It is recommended to use a pullup resistor when this is done. This resistor limits the current to
the input in case VM is higher than 6.5 V. Internally, the nSLEEP pin has a 500-kΩ resistor to GND. It also has a
clamping zener diode that clamps the voltage at the pin at 6.5 V. Currents greater than 250 µA can cause damage to
the input structure. Hence the recommended pullup resistor would be between 20 kΩ and 75 kΩ.
Protection Circuits
tia
l-P
re
p
The device is fully protected against undervoltage, overcurrent, and overtemperature.
Overcurrent Protection (OCP)
fid
en
An analog current limit circuit on each FET limits the current through the FET by limiting the gate drive. If this
analog current limit persists for longer than the OCP deglitch time, all FETs in the H-bridge will be disabled and the
nFAULT pin will be driven low. The driver will be re-enabled after the OCP retry period (tOCP) has passed.
nFAULT becomes high again at this time. If the fault condition is still present, the cycle repeats. If the fault is no
longer present, normal operation resumes and nFAULT remains deasserted. Please note that only the H-bridge in
which the OCP is detected will be disabled while the other bridge will function normally.
.C
on
Overcurrent conditions are detected independently on both high and low side devices; i.e., a short to ground, supply,
or across the motor winding will all result in an overcurrent shutdown. Note that overcurrent protection does not use
the current sense circuitry used for PWM current control, so functions even without presence of the xISEN resistors.
Co
rp
Thermal Shutdown (TSD)
If the die temperature exceeds safe limits, all MOSFETs in the H-bridge are disabled. Once the die temperature has
fallen to a safe level, operation automatically resumes.
er
gy
Undervoltage Lockout(UVLO)
Sil
If at any time the voltage on the VM pin falls below the undervoltage lockout threshold voltage, all circuitry in the
device will be disabled, and all internal logic will be reset. Operation will resume when VM rises above the UVLO
threshold. nFAULT is driven low in the event of an undervoltage condition.
THERMAL INFORMATION
Thermal Protection
The device has thermal shutdown (TSD) as described in the Protection Circuits section. If the die temperature
exceeds approximately 160°C, the device is disabled until the temperature drops to a safe level.

Any tendency of the device to enter thermal shutdown is an indication of either excessive power dissipation,
insufficient heatsinking, or too high an ambient temperature.
Maximum Output Current
In actual operation, the maximum output current achievable with a motor driver is a function of die temperature.
This in turn is greatly affected by ambient temperature and PCB design. Basically, the maximum motor current will
be the amount of current that results in a power dissipation level that, along with the thermal resistance of the
package and PCB, keeps the die at a low enough temperature to stay out of thermal shutdown.
The dissipation ratings given in the datasheet can be used as a guide to calculate the approximate maximum power
dissipation that can be expected to be possible without entering thermal shutdown for several different PCB
constructions. However, for accurate data, the actual PCB design must be analyzed via measurement or thermal
simulation.
Power Dissipation

Power dissipation in the device is dominated by the power dissipated in the output MOSFET resistance, or RDSON.
A H-bridge Average power dissipation can be roughly estimated by:

p
where PTOT is the total power dissipation, RDSON is the resistance of the HS plus LS MOSFETs, and IOUT(RMS) is
the RMS or DC output current being supplied to the load.
The maximum amount of power that can be dissipated in the device is dependent on ambient temperature and
heatsinking.

Note that RDSON increases with temperature, so as the device heats, the power dissipation increases.
