Switching noise from PCB traces, where high current flows, to the VDD line should be minimized because the noise level more than 0.5V on the VDD line may cause malfunctioning operation. The tip for avoiding such problem is to separate the logic GND (S-GND) and the power GND (P-GND) on a PCB, and then connect them together at IC GND pin. 121022 20/27 61426-01 SANKEN ELECTRIC CO., LTD.

SI-6633M 9 Cautions and warnings Logic inputs/output (PWM, Dir, Decay, SRMD, FG, FL, Break, Enable, STBY) ・Be sure to prevent the logic inputs(PWM, Dir, Decay, SRMD, Break, Enable, STBY) from being "OPEN". If some of the logic inputs are not used, be sure to connect them to VDD or GND. ※In case some of the logic inputs stay "OPEN", a malfunction may occur due to external noises. ・When the logic output(FG, FL) is not used, be sure to keep it "OPEN" or Gnd. ※In case it is connected to VDD, it may cause the device's deterioration or/and breakdown. About the protection circuit operation This product has Two protection circuits (motor coil short-circuit and overheating). These protection circuits work with detecting the thing that excessive energy joins the driver. Therefore, it is not possible to protect it when the energy caused by the motor coil short-circuit is outside the tolerance of the driver. Notice This driver has MOS inputs. Please notice as following contents. ・When static electricity is a problem, care should be taken to properly control the room humidity. This is particularly true in the winter when static electricity is most troublesome. ・Care should be taken with device leads and with assembly sequencing to avoid applying static charges to IC leads. PC board pins should be shorted together to keep them at the same potential to avoid this kind of trouble. 121022 26/27 61426-01 SANKEN ELECTRIC CO., LTD.

Although Sanken undertakes to enhance the quality and reliability of its products, the occurrence of failure and defect of semiconductor products at a certain rate is inevitable. Users of Sanken products are requested to take, at their own risk, preventative measures including safety design of the equipment or systems against any possible injury, death, fires or damages to the society due to device failure or malfunction. Sanken products listed in this document are designed and intended for the use as components in general purpose electronic equipment or apparatus (home appliances, office equipment, telecommunication equipment, measuring equipment, etc.). Please return to us this document with your signature(s) or seal(s) prior to the use of the products herein. When considering the use of Sanken products in the applications where higher reliability is required (transportation equipment and its control systems, traffic signal control systems or equipment, fire/crime alarm systems, various safety devices, etc.), please contact your nearest Sanken sales representative to discuss, and then return to us this document with your signature(s) or seal(s) prior to the use of the products herein. The use of Sanken products without the written consent of Sanken in the applications where extremely high reliability is required (aerospace equipment, nuclear power control systems, life support systems, etc.) is strictly prohibited. In the case that you use our semiconductor devices or design your products by using our semiconductor devices, the reliability largely depends on the degree of derating to be made to the rated values. Derating may be interpreted as a case that an operation range is set by derating the load from each rated value or surge voltage or noise is considered for derating in order to assure or improve the reliability. In general, derating factors include electric stresses such as electric voltage, electric current, electric power etc., environmental stresses such as ambient temperature, humidity etc. and thermal stress caused due to self-heating of semiconductor devices. For these stresses, instantaneous values, maximum values and minimum values must be taken into consideration. In addition, it should be noted that since power devices or IC’s including power devices have large self-heating value, the degree of derating of junction temperature (Tj) affects the reliability significantly. When using the products specified herein by either (i) combining other products or materials therewith or (ii) physically, chemically or otherwise processing or treating the products, please duly consider all possible risks that may result from all such uses in advance and proceed therewith at your own responsibility. Anti radioactive ray design is not considered for the products listed herein. Sanken assumes no responsibility for any troubles, such as dropping products caused during transportation out of Sanken’s distribution network. 121022 27/27 61426-01
