AMIS 30532 D

AMIS-30532
Micro-Stepping Motor
Driver
Introduction
The AMIS−30532 is a micro−stepping stepper motor driver for
bipolar stepper motors. The chip is connected through I/O pins and an
SPI interface with an external microcontroller. It has an on−chip
voltage regulator, reset−output and watchdog reset, able to supply
peripheral devices. The AMIS−30532 contains a current−translation
table and takes the next micro−step depending on the clock signal on
the “NXT” input pin and the status of the “DIR” (=direction) register
or input pin. The chip provides a so−called “speed and load angle”
output. This allows the creation of stall detection algorithms and
control loops based on load−angle to adjust torque and speed. It is
using a proprietary PWM algorithm for reliable current control.
The AMIS−30532 is implemented in I2T100 technology, enabling
both high−voltage analog circuitry and digital functionality on the
same chip. The chip is fully compatible with the automotive voltage
requirements.
The AMIS−30532 is ideally suited for general−purpose stepper
motor applications in the automotive, industrial, medical, and marine
environment. With the on−chip voltage regulator it further reduces the
BOM for mechatronic stepper applications.

PACKAGE THERMAL CHARACTERISTICS
The Rthja for 2S2P is simulated conform JEDEC
JESD−51 as follows:
• A 4−layer printed circuit board with inner power planes
and outer (top and bottom) signal layers is used
• Board thickness is 1.46 mm (FR4 PCB material)
• The 2 signal layers: 70 mm thick copper with an area of
5500 mm2 copper and 20% conductivity
• The 2 power internal planes: 36 mm thick copper with
an area of 5500 mm2 copper and 90% conductivity
The Rthja for 1S0P is simulated conform to JEDEC
JESD−51 as follows:
• A 1−layer printed circuit board with only 1 layer
• Board thickness is 1.46 mm (FR4 PCB material)
• The layer has a thickness of 70 mm copper with an area
of 5500 mm2 copper and 20% conductivity
The AMIS−30532 is available in a NQFP32 package. For
cooling optimizations, the NQFP has an exposed thermal
pad which has to be soldered to the PCB ground plane. The
ground plane needs thermal vias to conduct the heat to the
bottom layer. Figure 3 gives an example for good power
distribution solutions.
For precise thermal cooling calculations the major
thermal resistances of the device are given. The thermal
media to which the power of the devices has to be given are:
• Static environmental air (via the case)
• PCB board copper area (via the exposed pad)
The thermal resistances are presented in Table 5: DC
Parameters.
The major thermal resistances of the device are the Rth
from the junction to the ambient (Rthja) and the overall Rth
from the junction to exposed pad (Rthjp). In Table 5 below
one can find the values for the Rthja and Rthjp, simulated
according to JESD−51:

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
H−Bridge Drivers
A full H−bridge is integrated for each of the two stator
windings. Each H−bridge consists of two low−side and two
high−side N−type MOSFET switches. Writing logic ‘0’ in
bit <MOTEN> disables all drivers (high−impedance).
Writing logic ‘1’ in this bit enables both bridges and current
can flow in the motor stator windings.
In order to avoid large currents through the H−bridge
switches, it is guaranteed that the top− and bottom−switches
of the same half−bridge are never conductive
simultaneously (interlock delay).
A two−stage protection against shorts on motor lines is
implemented. In a first stage, the current in the driver is
limited. Secondly, when excessive voltage is sensed across
the transistor, the transistor is switched−off.
In order to reduce the radiated/conducted emission,
voltage slope control is implemented in the output switches.
The output slope is defined by the gate−drain capacitance of
output transistor and the (limited) current that drives the
gate. There are two trimming bits for slope control (see SPI
Control Parameter Overview EMC[1:0]).
The power transistors are equipped with so−called “active
diodes”: when a current is forced trough the transistor switch
in the reverse direction, i.e. from source to drain, then the
transistor is switched on. This ensures that most of the
current flows through the channel of the transistor instead of
through the inherent parasitic drain−bulk diode of the
transistor.
Depending on the desired current range and the
micro−step position at hand, the RDS(on) of the low−side
transistors will be adapted such that excellent current−sense
accuracy is maintained. The RDS(on) of the high−side
transistors remain unchanged, see Table 5 DC Parameters
for more details.
PWM Current Control
A PWM comparator compares continuously the actual
winding current with the requested current and feeds back
the information to a digital regulation loop. This loop then
generates a PWM signal, which turns on/off the H−bridge
switches. The switching points of the PWM duty−cycle are
synchronized to the on−chip PWM clock. The frequency of
the PWM controller can be doubled and an artificial jitter
can be added (see SPI Control Parameter Overview PWMJ).
The PWM frequency will not vary with changes in the
supply voltage. Also variations in motor−speed or
load−conditions of the motor have no effect. There are no
external components required to adjust the PWM frequency.
Automatic Forward and Slow−Fast Decay
The PWM generation is in steady−state using a
combination of forward and slow−decay. The absence of
fast−decay in this mode, guarantees the lowest possible
current−ripple “by design”. For transients to lower current
levels, fast−decay is automatically activated to allow
high−speed response. The selection of fast or slow decay is
completely transparent for the user and no additional
parameters are required for operation.

process is completely automatic and requires no additional
parameters for operation. The over−all current−ripple is
divided by two if PWM frequency is doubled (see SPI
Control Parameter Overview PWMF).
In case the supply voltage is lower than 2*Bemf, then the
duty cycle of the PWM is adapted automatically to > 50% to
maintain the requested average current in the coils. This

Step Translator and Step Mode
When remaining in the same step mode, subsequent
translator positions are all in the same column and increased
or decreased with 1. Table 10 lists the output current versus
the translator position.
As shown in Figure 10 the output current−pairs can be
projected approximately on a circle in the (Ix, Iy) plane.
There are, however, two exceptions: uncompensated half
step and full step. In these step modes the currents are not
regulated to a fraction of Imax but are in all intermediate steps
regulated at 100%. In the (Ix, Iy) plane the current−pairs are
projected on a square. Table 9 lists the output current versus
the translator position for these cases.
The step translator provides the control of the motor by
means of SPI register Stepmode: SM[2:0], SPI register
DIRCNTRL, and input pins DIR and NXT. It is translating
consecutive steps in corresponding currents in both motor
coils for a given step mode.
One out of seven possible stepping modes can be selected
through SPI−bits SM[2:0] (see SPI Control Parameter
Overview). After power−on or hard reset, the coil−current
translator is set to the default 1/32 micro−stepping at
position ‘0’. Upon changing the step mode, the translator
jumps to position 0* of the corresponding stepping mode.

NXT−polarity bit <NXTP> (see Table 14 SPI Control
Parameter Overview), the next step is initiated either on the
rising edge or the falling edge of the NXT input.
The direction of rotation is selected by means of following
combination of the DIR input pin and the SPI−controlled
direction bit <DIRCTRL>. (see Table 14 SPI Control
Parameter Overview)
Translator Position
The translator position MSP[6:0] can be read in SPI Status
Register 3 (See Table 15 SR3). This is a 7−bit number
equivalent to the 1/32th micro−step from Table 10: Circular
Translator Table. The translator position is updated
immediately following a NXT trigger.
NXT Input
Changes on the NXT input will move the motor current
one step up/down in the translator table (even when the
motor is disabled <MOTEN>=0>). Depending on the

Synchronization of Step Mode and NXT Input
If the step resolution is decreased at a translator table
position that is shared both by the old and new resolution
setting, then the offset is zero and micro−stepping is
proceeds according to the translator table.
If the translator position is not shared both by the old and
new resolution setting, then the micro−stepping proceeds
with an offset relative to the translator table (See Figure 12
right hand side).
When step mode is re−programmed to another resolution
(Figure 12), then this is put in effect immediately upon the
first arriving “NXT” input. If the micro−stepping resolution
is increased, the coil currents will be regulated to the nearest
micro−step, according to the fixed grid of the increased
resolution. If however the micro−stepping resolution is
decreased, then it is possible to introduce an offset (or phase
shift) in the micro−step translator table.

Programmable Peak−Current
The amplitude of the current waveform in the motor coils
(coil peak current = Imax) is adjusted by means of an SPI
parameter ”CUR[4:0]” (see Table 14 SPI Control Parameter
Overview). Whenever this parameter is changed, the
coil−currents will be updated immediately at the next PWM
period. Figure 13 presents the Peak−Current and Current
Ratings in conjunction to the Current setting CUR[4:0].

Speed and Load Angle Output
The SLA−pin provides an output voltage that indicates the
level of the Back−e.m.f. voltage of the motor. This
Back−e.m.f. voltage is sampled during every so−called “coil
current zero crossings”. Per coil, two zero−current positions
exist per electrical period, yielding in total four zero−current
observation points per electrical period.

of the coil voltage is not visible anymore, this mode
generates smoother Back e.m.f. input for post−processing,
e.g. by software.
In order to bring the sampled Back e.m.f. to a descent
output level (0 V to 5 V), the sampled coil voltage VCOIL is
divided by 2 or by 4. This divider is set through an SPI bit
<SLAG>. (see SPI Control Parameter Overview)
The following drawing illustrates the operation of the
SLA−pin and the transparency−bit. “PWMsh” and “ICOIL =
0” are internal signals that define together with SLAT the
sampling and hold moments of the coil voltage.
Because of the relatively high recirculation currents in the
coil during current decay, the coil voltage VCOIL shows a
transient behavior. As this transient is not always desired in
application software, two operating modes can be selected
by means of the bit <SLAT> (see “SLA−transparency” in
see SPI Control Parameter Overview). The SLA pin shows
in ”transparent mode” full visibility of the voltage transient
behavior. This allows a sanity−check of the speed−setting
versus motor operation and characteristics and supply
voltage levels. If the bit “SLAT” is cleared, then only the
voltage samples at the end of each coil current zero crossing
are visible on the SLA−pin. Because the transient behavior

Warning, Error Detection and Diagnostics
Feedback
Note: Successive reading the SPI StatusRegisters 1 and 2 in
case of a short circuit condition, may lead to damage to the
drivers.
Thermal Warning and Shutdown
When junction temperature rises above TTW, the thermal
warning bit <TW> is set (Table 16 SPI Status registers
Address SR0). If junction temperature increases above
thermal shutdown level, then the circuit goes in “Thermal
Shutdown” mode (<TSD>) and all driver transistors are
disabled (high impedance) (see Table 16 SPI Status registers
Address SR2). The conditions to reset flag <TSD> is to be
at a temperature lower than TTW and to clear the <TSD> flag
by reading it using any SPI read command.
Open Coil/Current Not Reached Detection
Open coil detection is based on the observation of 100%
duty cycle of the PWM regulator. If in a coil 100% duty cycle
is detected for longer than 200 ms then the related driver
transistors are disabled (high−impedance) and an
appropriate bit in the SPI status register is set (<OPENX> or
<OPENY>). (Table 16)
When the resistance of a motor coil is very large and the
supply voltage is low, it can happen that the motor driver is
not able to deliver the requested current to the motor. Under
these conditions the PWM controller duty cycle will be
100% and after 200 ms the error pin and <OPENX>,
<OPENY> will flag this situation (motor current is kept
alive). This feature can be used to test if the operating
conditions (supply voltage, motor coil resistance) still allow
reaching the requested coil−current or else the coil current
should be reduced.
Overcurrent Detection
The overcurrent detection circuit monitors the load
current in each activated output stage. If the load current
exceeds the overcurrent detection threshold, then the
over−current flag is set and the drivers are switched off to
reduce the power dissipation and to protect the integrated
circuit. Each driver transistor has an individual detection bit
in (see Table 16 SPI Status registers Address SR1 and SR2:
<OVCXij> and <OVCYij>). Error condition is latched and
the microcontroller needs to clean the status bits to reactivate
the drivers.
Charge Pump Failure
The charge pump is an important circuit that guarantees
low RDS(on) for all drivers, especially for low supply

voltages. If supply voltage is too low or external components
are not properly connected to guarantee RDS(on) of the
drivers, then the bit <CPFAIL> is set (Table 16). Also after
POR the charge pump voltage will need some time to exceed
the required threshold. During that time <CPFAIL> will be
set to “1”.
some low−voltage analog blocks and external circuitry. The
voltage is derived from an internal bandgap reference. To
calculate the available drive−current for external circuitry,
the specified Iload should be reduced with the consumption
of internal circuitry (unloaded outputs) and the loads
connected to logic outputs. See Table 5 DC Parameters.
Error Output
Power−On Reset (POR) Function
The open drain output pin POR/WD provides an “active
low” reset for external purposes. At power−up of
AMIS−30532, this pin will be kept low for some time to reset
for example an external microcontroller. A small analog
filter avoids resetting due to spikes or noise on the VDD
supply.
This is a digital output to flag a problem to the external
microcontroller. The signal on this output is active low and

Watchdog Function
The watchdog function is enabled/disabled through
<WDEN> bit (Table 13: SPI CONTROL REGISTERS (ALL
SPI control registers have Read/Write Access and default to
”0” after power−on or hard reset.)). Once this bit has been set
to “1” (watchdog enable), the microcontroller needs to
re−write this bit to clear an internal timer before the
watchdog timeout interval expires. In case the timer is
activated and WDEN is acknowledged too early (before
tWDPR) or not within the interval (after tWDTO), then a reset
of the microcontroller will occur through POR/WD pin. In
addition, a warm/cold boot bit <WD> is available (see
Tables 16 and 17) for further processing when the external
microcontroller is alive again.
analog circuits is depending on the reset state of the digital,
charge pump remains active. Logic 0 on CLR pin resumes
normal operation again.
The voltage regulator remains functional during and after
the reset and the POR/WD pin is not activated. Watchdog
function is reset completely.
Sleep Mode
The bit <SLP> in SPI Control Register 2 (See Table 12)
is provided to enter a so−called “sleep mode”. This mode
allows reduction of current−consumption when the motor is
not in operation. The effect of sleep mode is as follows:
• The drivers are put in HiZ
• All analog circuits are disabled and in low−power mode
• All internal registers are maintaining their logic content
• NXT and DIR inputs are forbidden
• SPI communication remains possible (slight current
increase during SPI communication)
• Reset of chip is possible through CLR pin
CLR Pin (=Hard Reset)
Logic 0 on CLR pin allows normal operation of the chip.
To reset the complete digital inside AMIS−30532, the input
CLR needs to be pulled to logic 1 during minimum time
given by tCLR. (Table 6 AC Parameters). This reset function
clears all internal registers without the need of a
power−cycle, except in sleep mode. The operation of all

• Oscillator and digital clocks are silent, except during
leaving sleep mode, this timer continues from the value it
had before entering sleep mode.
Normal operation is resumed after writing logic ‘0’ to bit
<SLP>. A start−up time is needed for the charge pump to
stabilize. After this time, NXT commands can be issued.

current−output capability (ILOADSLP). The watchdog timer

AMIS−30532
SPI INTERFACE
DO signal is the output from the Slave (AMIS−30532), and
DI signal is the output from the Master. A chip select line
(CS) allows individual selection of a Slave SPI device in a
multiple−slave system. The CS line is active low. If
AMIS−30532 is not selected, DO is pulled up with the
external pull up resistor. Since AMIS−30532 operates as a
Slave in MODE 0 (CPOL = 0; CPHA = 0) it always clocks
data out on the falling edge and samples data in on rising
edge of clock. The Master SPI port must be configured in
MODE 0 too, to match this operation. The SPI clock idles
low between the transferred bytes.
The diagram below is both a Master and a Slave timing
diagram since CLK, DO and DI pins are directly connected
between the Master and the Slave.
The serial peripheral interface (SPI) allows an external
microcontroller (Master) to communicate with
AMIS−30532. The implemented SPI block is designed to
interface directly with numerous micro−controllers from
several manufacturers. AMIS−30532 acts always as a Slave
and can’t initiate any transmission. The operation of the
device is configured and controlled by means of SPI
registers which are observable for read and/or write from the
Master.
SPI Transfer Format and Pin Signals
During a SPI transfer, data is simultaneously transmitted
(shifted out serially) and received (shifted in serially). A
serial clock line (CLK) synchronizes shifting and sampling
of the information on the two serial data lines (DO and DI).

READ command. This READ command contains the
address of the SPI register to be read out. At the falling edge
of the eight clock pulse the data−out shift register is updated
with the content of the corresponding internal SPI register.
In the next 8−bit clock pulse train this data is shifted out via
DO pin. At the same time the data shifted in from DI
(Master) should be interpreted as the following successive
command or dummy data.
Two command types can be distinguished in the
communication between master and AMIS−30532:
• READ from SPI Register with address ADDR[4:0]:
CMD2 = “0”
• WRITE to SPI Register with address ADDR[4:0]:
CMD2 = “1”

Registers, it initiates the communication by sending a

Figure 20. Single READ Operation where DATA from SPI register with Address 1 is read by the Master
All 4 Status Registers (see SPI Registers) contain 7 data
bits and a parity check bit The most significant bit (D7)
represents a parity of D[6:0]. If the number of logical ones
in D[6:0] is odd, the parity bit D7 equals “1”. If the number
of logical ones in D[6:0] is even then the parity bit D7 equals
“0”. This simple mechanism protects against noise and
increases the consistency of the transmitted data. If a parity
check error occurs it is recommended to initiate an
additional READ command to obtain the status again.
Also the Control Registers can be read out following the
same routine. Control Registers don’t have a parity check.
The CS line is active low and may remain low between
successive READ commands as illustrated in Figure 22.
There is however one exception. In case an error condition
is latched in one of Status Registers (see SPI Registers) the
ERRB pin is activated. (See Section Error Output). This
signal flags a problem to the external microcontroller. By
reading the Status Registers information about the root
cause of the problem can be determined. After this READ
operation the Status Registers are cleared. Because the
Status Registers and ERRB pin (see SPI Registers) are only
updated by the internal system clock when the CS line is
high, the Master should force CS high immediately after the
READ operation. For the same reason it is recommended to
keep the CS line high always when the SPI bus is idle.
WRITE Operation
If the Master wants to write data to a Control Register it
initiates the communication by sending a WRITE
command. This contains the address of the SPI register to
write to. The command is followed with a data byte. This
incoming data will be stored in the corresponding Control
Register after CS goes from low to high! AMIS−30532
responds on every incoming byte by shifting out via DO the
data stored in the last received address.
It is important that the writing action (command − address
and data) to the Control Register is exactly 16 bits long. If
more or less bits are transmitted the complete transfer packet
is ignored.
A WRITE command executed for a read−only register
(e.g. Status Registers) will not affect the addressed register
and the device operation.
Because after a power−on−reset the initial address is
unknown the data shifted out via DO is not valid.

Figure 22. 2 Successive READ Commands Followed by a WRITE Command
After the write operation the Master could initiate a read
back command in order to verify the data correctly written
as illustrated in Figure 23. During reception of the READ
command the old data is returned for a second time. Only
after receiving the READ command the new data is
transmitted. This rule also applies when the master device
wants to initiate an SPI transfer to read the Status Registers.
Because the internal system clock updates the Status
Registers only when CS line is high, the first read out byte
might represent old status information.

NOTE:
The internal data−out shift buffer of AMIS−30532 is updated with the content of the selected SPI register only at the last (every
eight) falling edge of the CLK signal (see SPI Transfer Format and Pin Signals). As a result, new data for transmission cannot be
written to the shift buffer at the beginning of the transfer packet and the first byte shifted out might represent old data.

‘1’ = watchdog reset after time−out
‘0’
WD − This bit indicates that the watchdog timer has not been cleared properly. If the master reads that WD is set to “1” after reset,
it means that a watchdog reset occurred (warm boot) instead of POR (cold boot). WD bit will be cleared only when the master
writes “0” to WDEN bit.
