DESCRIPTION:
The MSK 4230 is a dual, independent MOSFET H Bridge with gate drivers for dual winding stepper motor drive
capability. It is constructed in a convenient isolated hermetic package. The logic input and bridge output have a common
return; the input is not electrically isolated from the output. Provisions for output stage isolation must be made externally.
Each high side drive has the capability of connecting external capacitance for extended high side ON time before refresh is
necessary. A common shutdown pin will disable both bridges upon activation. The bridge is capable of 10Amp continuous
current output with sufficient heat sinking, and is capable of 70V maximum operating supply voltage. The bridge is constructed with 100V absolute maximum voltage rated MOSFET to allow for de-rating to 70V. Any PWM scheme can be used
for any type of microstepping for both high torque and/or high speed motor operation. There is no simultaneous conductive
lockout, so provisions must be made externally for dead time. The MSK 4230 has good thermal conductivity for output
stage power dissipation due to the isolated package design that allows direct heat sinking of the device without insulators.

APPLICATION NOTES
AVB+, BVB+, CVB+, DVB+ - Are the pins for the positive
side of the external bootstrap capacitor. The sizing of this capacitor dictates how long the high side MOSFETs can stay on
before needing refresh or will turn off due to lack of voltage.
AV+, BV+, CV+, DV+ - Are the main output stage positive
power pins. Traces shall be designed for the required current. It
is very important to place proper bypass capacitors as close to
the V+ pins and either the V- or sense resistor return pins as
close to the module as possible. Good quality bulk capacitors of
at least 10uF per amp of required current, 1uF ceramic and a
good high frequency polyester or mylar capacitor of at least 3.3uF
shall be used. The poly or mylar capacitor will serve as a very
low ESR capacitor for the high frequency transients present from
switching the output stage, and help compensate for stray inductance in the power paths.
AVB-, BVB-, CVB-, DVB- - Are the pins for the negative side of
the external bootstrap capacitor.
VCC - Input power connection for the bias supply. A 22uF capacitor and a 0.1uF capacitor are recommended between this pin
and GND, as close to the module as possible.
GND - Return pin for the input bias supply power. The bypass
capacitors shall be connected to this pin as close to the module
as possible. An input ground plane is recommended, so as to
keep stray inductance down to a minimum. Since this is a nonisolated device between input power and output power, there
needs to be a connection between GND and the return of the
output stage power. The recommended two ground planes shall
connect together at one point, this GND pin, with a 0.100"
width trace of minimum length. This will minimize sharing ground
currents that will tend to move the input ground around and
pass transient noise to the input.
AV-, BV-, CV-, DV- - Are the main output stage positive power
return pins. Traces shall be designed for the required current. DC
link current sense resistor shall connect to this point, as close to
the module as possible for the least stray inductance. At a minimum, use a non-inductive resistor, and preferably the four wire
sense variety for the best sensing without the effect of voltage
drops due to current. If a sense resistor is not used, connect this
point to the power return with a minimum of trace inductance,
and terminate the power bypass capacitors at this point as close
to the module pins as possible. A wide output ground plane
section is recommended to connect up all of the power return
pins if current sense resistor are not used. If they are used, then
minimum trace length to the resistor, and then an output ground
plane section shall be used to collect all of the resistor negative
return points. All output bypass capacitors shall connect to this
ground plane as well.
AØ, BØ, CØ, DØ - Are the half bridge output pins. Traces shall
be designed for the required current.
AHI, BHI, CHI, DHI - Are the logic pins for controlling the high
side MOSFETs in each half bridge. They are asserted high, meaning a logic "1" will turn on the high side. These are CMOS logic
levels. There are no provisions for simultaneous conduction lockout or dead time, so high side and low side timing issues need to
be accommodated outside this module. For a logic "1" to maintain the high side MOSFET ON condition, sufficient voltage needs
to be stored on the VB capacitors. Because there are no high
side power supplies, the voltage to the VB capacitors are "bootstrap charged" to the VCC supply when the low side MOSFET is
turned ON. There is limited charge in these capacitors , and the
charge will be depleted as the high side stays ON for extended
amounts of time. For extended high side ON conditions, use
larger VB capacitors.
ALO, BLO, CLO, DLO - Are the logic pins for controlling the low
side MOSFETs in each half bridge. They are asserted high, meaning a logic "1" will turn on the low side. These are CMOS logic
levels. There are no provisions for simultaneous conduction lockout or dead time, so low side and high side timing issues need to
be accommodated outside this module.
SD - Is the pin for shutting down the complete module. It is logic
level, with a logic "1" disabling all of the half bridges. The input
is CMOS.

TYPICAL APPLICATION LAYOUT
Shown is a typical application with the output stage PC board layout using sense resistors for the 4 half bridge legs. There are
2 planes, one for the V+ power input, and one for the Ground return. They are to be on separate layers. The typical placement of
the 2 types of capacitors are also shown. V+ power and Ground return should connect to the same end of the PC board assembly,
such that output currents between the V+ and the Ground will cancel if they are flowing in the opposite direction, minimizing
inductance.
The 2 planes shall be as wide as possible to minimize stray inductance. With the 2 types of capacitors split with the module in the
middle, it tends to again minimize stray inductance between it and the capacitances. It may be desirable to split both the bulk
capacitance and the poly capacitance and place one of each on each end of the module to further spread the capacitance out and
minimize the effect of stray inductance.
With the sense resistors and their connections shown, it is important to minimize trace length and keep the widths as wide as
possible for inductance reasons. The sense resistors shall be non-inductive, and have heatsinking appropriate to the value of
resistor selected. The sense traces do not carry significant current, so they can be routed back to the sensing and amplification
circuitry elsewhere. It is important to keep the sense and return traces for each resistor routed in close proximity to minimize noise
pickup and capitalize on the common mode rejection of a typical differential amplifier input.
This example of a layout is a typical one only. It is not intended to conform to any layout standards, but to show the concept of
the layout, current flow, and the use of planes for power and return.
