DESCRIPTION
The L6234 is a triple half bridge to drive a
brushless motor.
It is realized in Multipower BCD technology which
combines isolated DMOS power transistors with
CMOS and Bipolar circuits on the same chip.
By using mixed technology it has been possible to
optimize the logic circuitry and the power stage to
achieve the best possible performance.
The output DMOS transistors can sustain a very
high current due to the fact that the DMOS structure is not affected by the second breakdown ef-

fect, the RMS maximum current is practically limited by the dissipation capability of the package.
All the logic inputs are TTL, CMOS and µP compatible. Each channel is controlled by two separate logic input.
L6234 is available in 20 pin POWER DIP package
(16+2+2) and in PowerSO20.

DIP16+2+2. The thermal resistance is referred to
the thermal path from the dissipating region on
the top surface of the silicon chip, to the points
along the four central pins of the package, at a
distance of 1.5 mm away from the stand-offs.
Rth j-amb1
If a dissipating surface, thick at least 35 µm, and
with a surface similar or bigger than the one
shown, is created making use of the printed circuit.
Such heatsinking surface is considered on the
bottom side of an horizontal PCB (worst case).
Rth j-amb2
If the power dissipating pins (the four central
ones), as well as the others, have a minimum
thermal connection with the external world (very
thin strips only) so that the dissipation takes place
through still air and through the PCB itself.
It is the same situation of point above, without any
heatsinking surface created on purpose on the
board.

L6234 is a triple half bridge designed to drive
brushless DC motors.
Each half bridge has 2 power DMOS transistors
with RdsON = 0.3Ω. The 3 half bridges can be
controlled independentlyby means of the 3 inputs
IN1, IN2, IN3 and the 3 inputs EN1, EN2, and
Typ.
