Not to scale
The translator is the key to the easy implementation of the
A3983. Simply inputting one pulse on the STEP input drives
the motor one microstep. There are no phase sequence tables,
high frequency control lines, or complex interfaces to program.
The A3983 interface is an ideal fit for applications where a
complex microprocessor is unavailable or is overburdened.
The chopping control in the A3983 automatically selects the
current decay mode (Slow or Mixed). When a signal occurs at
the STEP input pin, the A3983 determines if that step results
in a higher or lower current in each of the motor phases. If
the change is to a higher current, then the decay mode is set to
Slow decay. If the change is to a lower current, then the current
decay is set to Mixed (set initially to a fast decay for a period
amounting to 31.25% of the fixed off-time, then to a slow
decay for the remainder of the off-time). This current decay

A3983
DMOS Microstepping Driver with Translator
Functional Description
Device Operation. The A3983 is a complete microstepping motor driver with a built-in translator for easy operation
with minimal control lines. It is designed to operate bipolar
stepper motors in full-, half-, quarter-, and sixteenth-step
modes. The currents in each of the two output full-bridges
and all of the N-channel DMOS FETs are regulated with
fixed off-time PMW (pulse width modulated) control circuitry. At each step, the current for each full-bridge is set by
the value of its external current-sense resistor (RS1 or RS2), a
reference voltage (VREF), and the output voltage of its DAC
(which in turn is controlled by the output of the translator).
At power-on or reset, the translator sets the DACs and the
phase current polarity to the initial Home state (shown in figures 2 through 5), and the current regulator to Mixed Decay
Mode for both phases. When a step command signal occurs
on the STEP input, the translator automatically sequences the
DACs to the next level and current polarity. (See table 2 for
the current-level sequence.) The microstep resolution is set
by the combined effect of inputs MS1 and MS2, as shown in
table 1.
When stepping, if the new output levels of the DACs are
lower than their previous output levels, then the decay mode
for the active full-bridge is set to Mixed. If the new output
levels of the DACs are higher than or equal to their previous
levels, then the decay mode for the active full-bridge is set
to Slow. This automatic current decay selection improves
microstepping performance by reducing the distortion of
the current waveform that results from the back EMF of the
motor.
RESET Input (RESET). The RESET input sets the
translator to a predefined Home state (shown in figures 2
through 5), and turns off all of the DMOS outputs. All STEP
inputs are ignored until the RESET input is set to high.
Step Input (STEP). A low-to-high transition on the STEP
input sequences the translator and advances the motor one
increment. The translator controls the input to the DACs and
the direction of current flow in each winding. The size of
the increment is determined by the combined state of inputs
MS1 and MS2.
Microstep Select (MS1 and MS2). Selects the microstepping format, as shown in table 1. MS2 has a 100 kΩ pulldown resistance. Any changes made to these inputs do not take
effect until the next STEP rising edge.
Direction Input (DIR). This determines the direction of
rotation of the motor. When low, the direction will be clockwise and when high, counterclockwise. Changes to this input
do not take effect until the next STEP rising edge.
Internal PWM Current Control. Each full-bridge is
controlled by a fixed off-time PWM current control circuit
that limits the load current to a desired value, ITRIP . Initially, a diagonal pair of source and sink DMOS outputs are
enabled and current flows through the motor winding and
the current sense resistor, RSx. When the voltage across RSx
equals the DAC output voltage, the current sense comparator resets the PWM latch. The latch then turns off either the
source DMOS FETs (when in Slow Decay Mode) or the sink
and source DMOS FETs (when in Mixed Decay Mode).
The maximum value of current limiting is set by the selection of RSx and the voltage at the VREF pin. The transconductance function is approximated by the maximum value of
current limiting, ITripMAX (A), which is set by
ITripMAX = VREF / ( 8
 RS)
where RS is the resistance of the sense resistor (Ω) and VREF
is the input voltage on the REF pin (V).
The DAC output reduces the VREF output to the current
sense comparator in precise steps, such that
Itrip = (%ITripMAX / 100)
× ITripMAX
(See table 2 for %ITripMAX at each step.)
It is critical that the maximum rating (0.5 V) on the SENSE1
and SENSE2 pins is not exceeded.
Fixed Off-Time. The internal PWM current control circuitry uses a one-shot circuit to control the duration of time
that the DMOS FETs remain off. The one shot off-time, tOFF,
is determined by the selection of an external resistor connected from the ROSC timing pin to ground. If the ROSC

pin is tied to an external voltage > 3 V, then tOFF defaults to
30 μs. The ROSC pin can be safely connected to the VDD
pin for this purpose. The value of tOFF (μs) is approximately
tOFF ≈ ROSC ⁄ 825
Blanking. This function blanks the output of the current
sense comparators when the outputs are switched by the
internal current control circuitry. The comparator outputs are
blanked to prevent false overcurrent detection due to reverse
recovery currents of the clamp diodes, and switching transients related to the capacitance of the load. The blank time,
tBLANK (μs), is approximately
tBLANK ≈ 1 μs
Charge Pump (CP1 and CP2). The charge pump is
used to generate a gate supply greater than that of VBB
for driving the source-side DMOS gates. A 0.1 μF ceramic
capacitor, should be connected between CP1 and CP2. In
addition, a 0.1 μF ceramic capacitor is required between
VCP and VBB, to act as a reservoir for operating the
high-side DMOS gates.
VREG (VREG). This internally-generated voltage is used
to operate the sink-side DMOS outputs. The VREG pin must
be decoupled with a 0.22 μF ceramic capacitor to ground.
VREG is internally monitored. In the case of a fault condition, the DMOS outputs of the A3983 are disabled.
Enable Input (ENABLE). This input turns on or off all of
the DMOS outputs. When set to a logic high, the outputs are
disabled. When set to a logic low, the internal control enables
the outputs as required. The translator inputs STEP, DIR,
MS1, and MS2, as well as the internal sequencing logic, all
remain active, independent of the ENABLE input state.
Shutdown. In the event of a fault, overtemperature
(excess TJ) or an undervoltage (on VCP), the DMOS outputs of the A3983 are disabled until the fault condition is
removed. At power-on, the UVLO (undervoltage lockout)
circuit disables the DMOS outputs and resets the translator to
the Home state.
Sleep Mode (SLEEP). To minimize power consumption
when the motor is not in use, this input disables much of the
internal circuitry including the output DMOS FETs, current
regulator, and charge pump. A logic low on the SLEEP pin
puts the A3983 into Sleep mode. A logic high allows normal
operation, as well as start-up (at which time the A3983 drives
the motor to the Home microstep position). When emerging
from Sleep mode, in order to allow the charge pump to stabilize, provide a delay of 1 ms before issuing a Step command.
Mixed Decay Operation. The bridge can operate in
Mixed Decay mode, depending on the step sequence, as
shown in figures 3 thru 5. As the trip point is reached, the
A3983 initially goes into a fast decay mode for 31.25% of
the off-time. tOFF. After that, it switches to Slow Decay mode
for the remainder of tOFF.
Synchronous Rectification. When a PWM-off cycle
is triggered by an internal fixed–off-time cycle, load current
recirculates according to the decay mode selected by the
control logic. This synchronous rectification feature turns on
the appropriate FETs during current decay, and effectively
shorts out the body diodes with the low DMOS RDS(ON). This
reduces power dissipation significantly, and can eliminate
the need for external Schottky diodes in many applications.
Turning off synchronous rectification prevents the reversal of
the load current when a zero-current level is detected.

Application Layout
be created using the exposed thermal pad under the device, to
serve both as a low impedance ground point and thermal path.
Layout. The printed circuit board should use a heavy groundplane. For optimum electrical and thermal performance, the
A3983 must be soldered directly onto the board. On the underside of the A3983 package is an exposed pad, which provides a
path for enhanced thermal dissipation. The thermal pad should be
soldered directly to an exposed surface on the PCB. Thermal vias
are used to transfer heat to other layers of the PCB.
The two input capacitors should be placed in parallel, and as
close to the device supply pins as possible. The ceramic capacitor (CIN1) should be closer to the pins than the bulk capacitor
(CIN2). This is necessary because the ceramic capacitor will be
responsible for delivering the high frequency current components.
The sense resistors, RSx , should have a very low impedance
path to ground, because they must carry a large current while
supporting very accurate voltage measurements by the current
sense comparators. Long ground traces will cause additional
voltage drops, adversely affecting the ability of the comparators
to accurately measure the current in the windings. The SENSEx
pins have very short traces to the RSx resistors and very thick,
low impedance traces directly to the star ground underneath the
device. If possible, there should be no other components on the
sense circuits.
In order to minimize the effects of ground bounce and offset
issues, it is important to have a low impedance single-point
ground, known as a star ground, located very close to the device.
By making the connection between the pad and the ground plane
directly under the A3983, that area becomes an ideal location for
a star ground point. A low impedance ground will prevent ground
bounce during high current operation and ensure that the supply
voltage remains stable at the input terminal. The star ground can
