Ordering number : EN6041 Thick-Film Hybrid IC STK672-110 Unipolar Fixed-Current Chopper (Self-Excited PWM) Scheme and Built-in Phase Signal Distribution IC Two-Phase Stepping Motor Driver (Square Wave Drive) Output Current: 1.8 A Overview The STK672-110 is a unipolar fixed-current chopper type 2-phase stepping motor driver hybrid IC. It features power MOSFETs in the output stage and a built-in phase signal distribution IC. The incorporation of a phase distribution IC allows the STK672-110 to control the speed of the motor based on the frequency of an external input clock signal. It supports two types of excitation for motor control: 2-phase excitation and 1-2 phase excitation. It also provides a function for switching the motor direction. Applications • Two-phase stepping motor drive in send/receive facsimile units • Paper feed in copiers, industrial robots, and other applications that require 2-phase stepping motor drive • All inputs are Schmitt inputs and 40-kΩ (typical: –50 to +100%) pull-up resistors are built in. • The motor current can be set by changing the Vref pin voltage. Since a 0.22-Ω current detection resistor is built in, a current of 1 A is set for each 0.22 V of applied voltage. • The input frequency range for the clock signal used for motor speed control is 0 to 25 kHz. • Supply voltage ranges: VCC1 = 10 to 42 V, VCC2 = 5.0 V ±5% • This IC supports motor operating currents of up to 1.8 A at Tc = 105°C, and of up to 2.65 A at Tc = 25°C.

If the diode D1 has Vf characteristics with Vf less than or equal to 0.6 V (when If = 0.1 A), this will be smaller than the CMOS IC input pin diode Vf. If this is the case RO3 may be replaced with a short without problem. • Standard or HC type input levels are used for the pin 7, 8, and 9 inputs. • If open-collector type circuits are used for the pin 7, 8, and 9 inputs, these circuit will be in the high-impedance state for high level inputs. As a result, chopping circuit noise may cause the input circuits to operate incorrectly. To prevent incorrect operation due to such noise, capacitors with values between 470 and 1000 pF must be connected between pins 7 and 11, 8 and 11, and 9 and 11. (A capacitor with a value between 470 and 1000 pF must be connected between pins 6 and 11 as well if an open-collector output IC is used for the RESETB pin (pin 6) input.) • Taking the input bias current (IIB) characteristics into account, the resistor RO1 must not exceed 100 kΩ. • The following circuit (for a lowered current of over 0.2 A) is recommended if the application needs to temporarily lower the motor current. Here, a value of close to 100 kΩ must be used for resistor RO1 to make the transistor output saturation voltage as low as possible.

Applications must apply a reset signal for at least 20 µs when power is first applied. A reset is applied by a low level • A simple reset function is formed from D1, CO4, and RO3 in this application circuit. With the CLOCK input held low, when the 5-V supply voltage is brought up a reset is applied if the motor output phases A and BB are driven. If the 5-V supply voltage rise time is slow (over 50 ms), the motor output phases A and BB may not be driven. Increase the value of the capacitor CO4 and check circuit operation again. • See the timing chart for the concrete details on circuit operation. No. 6041-4/9 STK672-110 Usage Notes • 5-V system input pins [RESETB and CLOCK (Input signal timing when power is first applied)] As shown in the timing chart, a RESETB signal input is required by the driver to operate with the timing in which the F1 gate is turned on first. The RESETB signal timing must be set up to have a width of at least 20 µs, as shown below. The capacitor CO4 and the resistor RO3 in the application circuit form simple reset circuit that uses the RC time constant rising time. However, when designing the RESETB input based on CMOS levels, the application must have the timing shown in figure 1.

[Vref <Motor current peak value setting>] In the sample application circuit, the peak value of the motor current (IO) is set by RO1, RO2, and VDD (5 V) as described by the formula below. Figure 2 Motor Current IO Flowing into the Driver IC IOH = Vref ÷ Rs Here, Rs is hybrid IC internal current detection resistor Vref = (R02 ÷ (R01 + R02)) × 5 V STK672-110 : Rs = 0.22 Ω • Allowable motor current operating range The motor current (IO) must be held within the range corresponding to the area under the curve shown in figure 4. For example, if the operating substrate temperature Tc is 105°C, then IO must be held under IO max = 1.8 A, and in hold mode IO must be held under IO max = 1.5 A. No. 6041-5/9 STK672-110 • Thermal design [Operating range in which a heat sink is not used] The STK672-110 package has a structure that uses no screws, and is recommended for use without a heat sink. This section discusses the safe operating range when no heat sink is used. In the maximum ratings specifications, Tcmax is specified to be 105°C, and when mounted in an actual end product system, the Tcmax value must never be exceeded during operation. Tc can be expressed by formula (A) below, and thus the range for ∆Tc must be stipulated so that Tc is always under 105°C. Tc = Ta + ∆Tc (A) Ta: Hybrid IC ambient temperature, ∆Tc: Temperature increase across the aluminum substrate As shown in figure 6, the value of ∆Tc increases as the hybrid IC internal average power dissipation PD increases. As shown in figure 5, PD increases with the motor current. Here we describe the actual PD calculation using the example shown in the motor current timing chart in figure 3. Since there are periods when current flows and periods when the current is off during actual motor operation, PD cannot be determined from the data presented in figure 5. Therefore, we calculate PD assuming that actual motor operation consists of repetitions of the operation shown in figure 3. Motor phase current (sink side) Figure 3 Motor Current Timing T1: Motor rotation operation time T2: Motor hold operation time T3: Motor current off time T2 may be reduced, depending on the application. T0: Single repeated motor operating cycle IO1 and IO2: Motor current peak values Due to the structure of motor windings, the phase current is a positive and negative current with a pulse form. Note that figure 3 presents the concepts here, and that the on/off duty of the actual signals will differ. The hybrid IC internal average power dissipation PD can be calculated from the following formula. PD = (T1 × P1 + T2 × P2 + T3) ÷ T0 (I) (Here, P1 is the PD for IO1 and P2 is the PD for IO2) If the value calculated in formula (I) above is under 1.4 W, then from figure 6 we see that operation is allowed up to an ambient temperature Ta of 60°C. While the operating range when a heat sink is not used can be determined from formula (I) above, figure 5 is merely a single example of one operating mode for a single motor. For example, while figure 5 shows a 2-phase excitation motor, if 1-2 phase excitation is used with a 500-Hz clock frequency, the drive will be turned off for 25% of the time and the dissipation PD will be reduced to 75% of that in figure 5. It is extremely difficult for Sanyo to calculate the internal average power dissipation PD for all possible end product conditions. After performing the above rough calculations, always install the hybrid IC in an actual end product and verify that the substrate temperature Tc does not rise above 105°C.
