2 General Description
The US90A/91A is a one-chip solution for driving
two-coil brushless DC cooling fans.
Based on the advanced Melexis CMOS process,
the IC contains a Hall-effect sensor, dynamic
offset correction and low side output drivers.
Frequency Generator or Rotation Detection is
available. The open-drain output makes the
connectivity with any external interface such as
hardware monitoring or Super I/O IC easier.
These features are combined with the Melexis
patented no-VDD design to fit the IC in small 4-pin
VK and VA package.
The device is also delivered in DC package for
automatic assembly.

US90A / US91A
24V Hall IC Fan Driver
9 Detailed General Description
The US90A/91A is a one-chip solution for driving two-coil brushless DC fans. Based on advanced Melexis
CMOS process, the IC contains a Hall-effect sensor, dynamic offset correction and low side output drivers.
The output drivers OUT1 and OUT2 are fully protected against switching transients. So there is no need for
an external zener diode to cut the high voltage spikes induced by the fan coils.
The US90A has an open-drain integrated tachometer FG output that follows the Hall signal.
In the US91A, the open-drain rotation detection output RD is active low during normal spinning of the motor.
It goes high when the flux switching frequency becomes too low, which means the motor is blocked.
10 Unique Features
The absence of a VDD pin enables the two low side output drivers and FG/RD signal output to fit in a four-pin
VK package. The lack of a VDD pin decreases also the probability to damage the chip due to reverse voltage
connection, using the coil resistance to limit the reverse current. In this condition, the total reverse current is
twice the peak current value of the fan used.
The built-in locked-rotor protection will automatically shut off the coil current when the rotor is mechanically
blocked, or the rotational speed drops below 60 RPM (4-pole rotor magnet). The fan will try to restart every
1.5 seconds until the obstruction is clear. The On / Off cycling reduces the average stall current to 1/7 normal;
this is enough to prevent overheating or damage to most fans. Both the US90A and US91A have this feature.

12 Application Information
12.1 Typical application with pull-up

12.2 Configuration for reverse voltage /
ground hot-switch protection and
enhanced ESD module protection
13 Application Comments
Figure 12.2 shows the application including several external protections.
The diode DREVPROT best protects the chip and fan coils for reverse voltage condition.
The capacitor CBYPASS is recommended if the supply ground may be disconnected while running even though
the positive supply point is still connected. This capacitor provides a path to ground for the remaining energy
in the coil which has to be evacuated. Without it, the energy can flow from OUT1/OUT2 to the FG/RD driver,
without any limitation and may cause EOS damage.
Its value has to be tuned depending on the coils characteristics. Bigger inductance requires bigger capacitor.
The no-VDD design enables ESD protection at fan module level to be easily improved. The fan coils prevent
and filter fast current stress on OUT1 and OUT2, resulting in better ESD protection. Adding the optional
capacitor COUT enhances the ESD protection of the logic output. Hence, the fan module is able to withstand
ESD stress at relatively high value without damage.
