Features and Benefits
Description
▪
▪
▪
▪
The A1442 is a full-bridge motor driver designed to drive lowvoltage, brushless DC motors. Commutation of the motor is
achieved by use of a single Hall element to detect the rotational
position of an alternating-pole ring magnet. A high-density
CMOS semiconductor process allows the integration of all
the necessary electronics. This includes the Hall element, the
motor control circuitry, and the full output bridge. Low-voltage
design techniques have been employed to achieve full device
functionality down to low VDD values. This fully integrated
single chip solution provides enhanced reliability (including
reverse battery protection and output short circuit protection)
and eliminates the need for any external support components.

The A1442 employs a soft-switching algorithm to reduce audible
switching noise and EMI interference. A micropower sleep
mode can be enabled by an external signal, to reduce current
consumption for battery management in portable electronic
devices. This feature allows the removal of a FET transistor
for switching the device on and off.
The A1442 is optimized for vibration motor applications in
cellular phones, pagers, electronic toothbrushes, hand-held
video game controllers, and low power fan motors.
1.5 mm × 2 mm, 0.40 mm maximum overall height
The small package outline and low profile make this device
ideally suited for use in applications where printed circuit board
area and component headroom are at a premium. It is available
in a lead (Pb) free, 6 pin MLP/DFN microleadframe package,
with an exposed pad for enhanced thermal dissipation.

Functional Description
Soft Switching The A1442 device includes a soft-switching algorithm that controls the output switching slew rate for
both output pins. As a result the A1442 device is ideal for use in
applications requiring low audible switching noise and low EMI
interference.

Sleep Mode The S
enables sleep mode. In sleep mode, the current consumption is
reduced to an extremely low level, conserving battery power in
portable electronics.
Antistall Algorithm If a stall condition occurs, the device will
execute an antistall algorithm.
Device Start-up The start-up behavior of the device output
is determined by the applied magnetic field, as specified in the

Power Derating
The device must be operated below the maximum junction temperature of the device, TJ(max). Under certain combinations of
peak conditions, reliable operation may require derating supplied
power or improving the heat dissipation properties of the application. This section presents a procedure for correlating factors
affecting operating TJ. (Thermal data is also available on the
Allegro MicroSystems Web site.) The package thermal resistance,
RθJA, is a figure of merit summarizing the ability of the application and the device to dissipate heat from the junction (die),
through all paths to the ambient air. Its primary component is the
effective thermal conductivity, K, of the printed circuit board,
including adjacent devices and traces. Radiation from the die
through the device case, RθJC, is relatively small component of
RθJA. Ambient air temperature, TA, and air motion are significant
external factors, damped by overmolding. The effect of varying
power levels (power dissipation, PD) can be estimated. The following formulas represent the fundamental relationships used to
estimate TJ at given levels of PD.
Given:
PD = VIN × IIN ,
(1)
ΔT = PD × RθJA , and
(2)
TJ = TA + ΔT
(3)
For a load of 30 Ω, given common conditions such as: TA= 25°C,
VDD = 3 V, IDD = 83 mA, VL = 2.43 V, IL = 81 mA and RθJA =
250 °C/W, then:
PD = VDD × IDD – VLIL
= 3 V × 83 mA – 2.43 V × 81 mA = 52.17 mW ,
ΔT = PD × RθJA
= 52.17 mW × 250 °C/W = 13°C , and
TJ = TA + ΔT = 25°C + 13°C = 38°C
A worst-case estimate, PD(max), represents the maximum allowable power level, without exceeding TJ(max), at a selected RθJA
and TA.
