A3972SBT Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The A3972SBT from Allegro MicroSystems is a dual DMOS, full-bridge, microstepping PWM motor driver designed for bipolar stepper motors. It provides continuous output currents of up to ±1.5 A and can operate at voltages up to 50 V.

 

This IC features integrated control and power stages with low rDS(on) DMOS output drivers. It supports optimized microstepping through 6-bit linear DACs and offers programmable mixed, fast, and slow current-decay modes. The serial interface controls chip functions, and synchronous rectification is employed for low power dissipation. Internal UVLO and thermal shutdown circuitry, along with crossover-current protection, enhance reliability.

 

The A3972SBT is supplied in a 24-lead plastic DIP package with a power tab at ground potential, requiring no electrical isolation. It is suitable for through-hole mounting and operates over a temperature range of -20°C to 150°C (Junction).

 

Key electrical characteristics include a logic supply voltage of up to 7V and a sense voltage of 500mV. The device is compatible with 3.3V or 5V control signals and includes sleep and idle modes.
