The translator is the key to the easy implementation of the
A4982. Simply inputting one pulse on the STEP input drives
the motor one microstep. There are no phase sequence tables,
high frequency control lines, or complex interfaces to program.
The A4982 interface is an ideal fit for applications where a
complex microprocessor is unavailable or is overburdened.

Description (continued)
In Mixed decay mode, the device is set initially to a fast decay for
a proportion of the fixed off-time, then to a slow decay for the
remainder of the off-time. Mixed decay current control results in
reduced audible motor noise, increased step accuracy, and reduced
power dissipation.
Internal synchronous rectification control circuitry is provided
to improve power dissipation during PWM operation. Internal
circuit protection includes: thermal shutdown with hysteresis,
undervoltage lockout (UVLO), and crossover-current protection.
Special power-on sequencing is not required.
The A4982 is supplied in two surface mount package, the ET, a
5 mm × 5 mm, 0.90 mm nominal overall package height QFN
package, and the LP package, a 24-pin TSSOP. Both packages have
exposed pads for enhanced thermal dissipation, and are lead (Pb)
free (suffix –T), with 100% matte tin plated leadframes.

A4982
DMOS Microstepping Driver with Translator
and Overcurrent Protection
Functional Description
Device Operation. The A4982 is a complete microstepping
Low Current Microstepping. Intended for applications
motor driver with a built-in translator for easy operation with
minimal control lines. It is designed to operate bipolar stepper motors in full-, half-, quarter-, and sixteenth-step resolution
modes. The currents in each of the two output full-bridges and all
of the N-channel DMOS FETs are regulated with fixed off-time
PWM (pulse width modulated) control circuitry. At each step,
the current for each full-bridge is set by the value of its external
current-sense resistor (RS1 and RS2), a reference voltage (VREF),
and the output voltage of its DAC (which in turn is controlled by
the output of the translator).
where the minimum on-time prevents the output current from
regulating to the programmed current level at low current steps.
To prevent this, the device can be set to operate in Mixed decay
mode on both rising and falling portions of the current waveform.
This feature is implemented by shorting the ROSC pin to ground.
In this state, the off-time is internally set to 30 μs.
At power-on or reset, the translator sets the DACs and the phase
current polarity to the initial Home state (shown in figures 10
through 13), and the current regulator to Mixed decay mode for
both phases. When a step command signal occurs on the STEP
input, the translator automatically sequences the DACs to the
next level and current polarity. (See table 2 for the current-level
sequence.) The microstep resolution is set by the combined effect
of the MSx inputs, as shown in table 1.
When stepping, if the new output levels of the DACs are lower
than their previous output levels, then the decay mode for the
active full-bridge is set to Mixed. If the new output levels of the
DACs are higher than or equal to their previous levels, then the
decay mode for the active full-bridge is set to Slow. This automatic current decay selection improves microstepping performance by reducing the distortion of the current waveform that
results from the back EMF of the motor.

Step Input (STEP). A low-to-high transition on the STEP
input sequences the translator and advances the motor one increment. The translator controls the input to the DACs and the direction of current flow in each winding. The size of the increment is
determined by the combined state of inputs MS1 and MS2.
Direction Input (DIR). This determines the direction of rotation of the motor. Changes to this input do not take effect until the
next STEP rising edge.
Internal PWM Current Control. Each full-bridge is con-
trolled by a fixed off-time PWM current control circuit that limits
the load current to a desired value, ITRIP . Initially, a diagonal pair
of source and sink FET outputs are enabled and current flows
through the motor winding and the current sense resistor, RSx.
When the voltage across RSx equals the DAC output voltage, the
current sense comparator resets the PWM latch. The latch then

The DAC output reduces the VREF output to the current sense
comparator in precise steps, such that
Itrip = (%ITripMAX / 100)
× ITripMAX
(See table 2 for %ITripMAX at each step.)
It is critical that the maximum rating (0.5 V) on the SENSE1 and
SENSE2 pins is not exceeded.
Fixed Off-Time. The internal PWM current control circuitry
uses a one-shot circuit to control the duration of time that the
DMOS FETs remain off. The off-time, tOFF , is determined by the
ROSC terminal. The ROSC terminal has three settings:
▪ ROSC tied to VDD — off-time internally set to 30 μs, decay
mode is automatic Mixed decay except when in full step where
decay mode is set to Slow decay
▪ ROSC tied directly to ground — off-time internally set to
30 μs, current decay is set to Mixed decay for both increasing
and decreasing currents, except in full step where decay mode
is set to Slow decay. (See Low Current Microstepping section.)
▪ ROSC through a resistor to ground — off-time is determined
by the following formula , the decay mode is automatic Mixed
decay for all step modes.
tOFF ≈ ROSC ⁄ 825
Where tOFF is in μs.
Blanking. This function blanks the output of the current sense
comparators when the outputs are switched by the internal current
control circuitry. The comparator outputs are blanked to prevent
false overcurrent detection due to reverse recovery currents of the
clamp diodes, and switching transients related to the capacitance
of the load. The blank time, tBLANK (μs), is approximately
tBLANK ≈ 1 μs
Shorted-Load and Short-to-Ground Protection.
If the motor leads are shorted together, or if one of the leads is
shorted to ground, the driver will protect itself by sensing the
overcurrent event and disabling the driver that is shorted, protecting the device from damage. In the case of a short-to-ground, the

event is shown in figure 4.
overcurrent condition that exists. This causes the driver to go into
a fixed off-time cycle. After the fixed off-time expires the driver
turns on again and the process repeats. In this condition the driver
is completely protected against overcurrent events, but the short
is repetitive with a period equal to the fixed off-time of the driver.
This condition is shown in figure 5.
If the driver is operating in Mixed decay mode, it is normal for
the positive current to spike, due to the bridge going in the forward direction and then in the negative direction, as a result of the
direction change implemented by the Mixed decay feature. This
is shown in figure 6. In both instances the overcurrent circuitry is
protecting the driver and prevents damage to the device.
Charge Pump (CP1 and CP2). The charge pump is used to
generate a gate supply greater than that of VBB for driving the
source-side FET gates. A 0.1 μF ceramic capacitor, should be
connected between CP1 and CP2. In addition, a 0.1 μF ceramic
capacitor is required between VCP and VBB, to act as a reservoir
for operating the high-side FET gates.
Capacitor values should be Class 2 dielectric ±15% maximum,
or tolerance R, according to EIA (Electronic Industries Alliance)
specifications.
VREG (VREG). This internally-generated voltage is used to operate the sink-side FET outputs. The VREG pin must be decoupled
with a 0.22 μF ceramic capacitor to ground. VREG is internally
monitored. In the case of a fault condition, the FET outputs of the
A4982 are disabled.

Mixed Decay Operation. The bridge operates in Mixed
decay mode, at power-on and reset, and during normal running
according to the ROSC configuration and the step sequence, as
shown in figures 3 through 6. During Mixed decay, when the trip
point is reached, the A4982 initially goes into a fast decay mode
for 31.25% of the off-time, tOFF . After that, it switches to Slow
decay mode for the remainder of tOFF. A timing diagram for this
feature appears in figure7.
Typically, mixed decay is only necessary when the current in the
winding is going from a higher value to a lower value as determined
by the state of the translator. For most loads automatically-selected
mixed decay is convenient because it minimizes ripple when the current is rising and prevents missed steps when the current is falling.
For some applications where microstepping at very low speeds is
necessary, the lack of back EMF in the winding causes the current to
increase in the load quickly, resulting in missed steps. This is shown
in figure 2. By pulling the ROSC pin to ground, mixed decay is set
to be active 100% of the time, for both rising and falling currents,
and prevents missed steps as shown in figure 3. If this is not an issue,
it is recommended that automatically-selected mixed decay be used,
because it will produce reduced ripple currents. Refer to the Fixed
Off-Time section for details.
Synchronous Rectification. When a PWM-off cycle is
triggered by an internal fixed-off-time cycle, load current recirculates according to the decay mode selected by the control logic.
This synchronous rectification feature turns on the appropriate
FETs during current decay, and effectively shorts out the body
diodes with the low FET RDS(ON). This reduces power dissipation
significantly, and can eliminate the need for external Schottky
diodes in many applications. Synchronous rectification turns off
when the load current approaches zero (0 A), preventing reversal
of the load current.

Application Layout
The two input capacitors should be placed in parallel, and as
close to the device supply pins as possible. The ceramic capacitor (CIN1) should be closer to the pins than the bulk capacitor
(CIN2). This is necessary because the ceramic capacitor will be
responsible for delivering the high frequency current components.
The sense resistors, RSx , should have a very low impedance
path to ground, because they must carry a large current while
supporting very accurate voltage measurements by the current
sense comparators. Long ground traces will cause additional
voltage drops, adversely affecting the ability of the comparators
to accurately measure the current in the windings. The SENSEx
pins have very short traces to the RSx resistors and very thick,
low impedance traces directly to the star ground underneath the
device. If possible, there should be no other components on the
sense circuits.
Layout. Typical application circuits and layouts are shown in
figures 8 (LP package) and 9 (ET package).The printed circuit
board should use a heavy groundplane. For optimum electrical
and thermal performance, the A4982 must be soldered directly
onto the board. On the underside of the A4982 package is an
exposed pad, which provides a path for enhanced thermal dissipation. The thermal pad should be soldered directly to an exposed
surface on the PCB. Thermal vias are used to transfer heat to
other layers of the PCB.
In order to minimize the effects of ground bounce and offset
issues, it is important to have a low impedance single-point
ground, known as a star ground, located very close to the device.
By making the connection between the pad and the ground plane
directly under the A4982, that area becomes an ideal location for
a star ground point. A low impedance ground will prevent ground
bounce during high current operation and ensure that the supply
voltage remains stable at the input terminal.
