2-channel reversible-motor driver
BA6191
The BA6191 is a 2-channel motor driver for CD player changers and electric volume switches, among other applications.
Because it uses a negative power supply, this IC uses the power supply of application products efficiently.
Applications
CD player, etc.
Features
1) Two-channel reversible-motor driver.
2) Four modes - forward, reverse, stop (free rotation)
and brake are output according to control logic input
(two inputs).
3) Output voltage is set with the Vref pin.
Absolute maximum ratings (Ta = 25C)
Recommended operating conditions (Ta = 25C)

4) Internal power supply voltage drop mute circuit.
5) Internal thermal shutdown circuit.
6) Negative power supply.

Electrical characteristics (unless otherwise noted, Ta=25C, VCC=10V, Vref=2.5V)
Circuit operation
(1) Forward / reverse control block
The IC outputs the forward, reverse, stop (free rotation)
or brake mode in accordance with the two control logic
inputs.
〈Forward and reverse modes〉
An output voltage twice that of the reference voltage is
generated.
1) Normal voltage is not output when the reference voltage is below 1.0V or about VCC / 2–1.0V.
2) VCC is the reference voltage for the input voltage of
logic input pins. In terms of potential relative to VEE,
the HIGH level are (VCC+5.0)V and LOW level are
(VCC.)V.
3) Fig. 2 shows each pin’s potential level.
〈Stop mode〉
Each pin changes to the high impedance state.
〈Brake mode〉
Each pin outputs 0V.

Circuit operation
(2) Thermal shutdown
The BA6191 has an internal shutdown circuit with hysteresis capabilities. Output current is muted when the chip
temperature exceeds 175C (typically) and restored
when the chip temperature falls to 150C (typically).
Application example
Operation notes
(1) Attach a bypass capacitor (roughly 0.1µF) to the
power supply, at the base of the IC.
(2) The radiating fin is internally grounded to the package and so should be connected to an external ground.

(3) Power supply voltage drop muting
The output current is muted when the power supply voltage (VCC) drops below 3.0V. During muting, the output
voltage is VEE.
