*1. Power supply and ground lines
P-GND is connected to the motor power supply system and S-GND is connected to the control circuit power supply system.
These two systems should be formed from separate lines and the control system external components should be connected to
S-GND.
*2. Regeneration power supply stabilization capacitor
The capacitor CM provides power supply stabilization for both PWM drive and kickback absorption. A capacitor with a value of
over 0.1µF is used for CM. A large capacitor must be used when the coil inductance is large or when the coil resistance is low.
Since this IC adopts a technique in which switching is performed by the high side transistor and regeneration is handled by the low
side transistor, the pattern connecting CM to VM and P-GND must be as wide and as short as possible.
*3. Hall sensor input
Lines that are as short as possible must be used to prevent noise from entering the system. The Hall sensor input circuit consists of
a comparator with hysteresis (20mV). We recommend that the Hall sensor input level be at least three times this hysteresis, i.e. at
least 60mVp-p.
*4. PWM oscillator frequency setting capacitor
If a value of 100pF is used for CP, the oscillator frequency will be f = 25kHz, and this will be the basic frequency of the PWM
signal.
*5. RD output
This is an open collector output. It outputs a low level when the motor is turning and a high level when it is stopped. This pin must
be left open if unused.
*6. FG output
This is an open collector output, and a rotation count detection function can be implemented using this FG output, which
corresponds to the phase switching. This pin must be left open if unused.
*7. HB pin
This pin provides a Hall effect sensor bias constant-voltage output of 1.25V.
*8. RMI pin
Connect this pin to VTH if unused. Even if unused, the IC is set internally to operate at a 10% drive duty at the voltage
corresponding to the lowest speed. (The capacitor is used to set up full-speed mode at startup.)

1. Set minimum speed mode
A VTH voltage level is generated when the thermistor detects the set temperature. At low temperatures, the fan
motor turns at the lowest speed, which is set with the RMI pin. The LB11961 compares the CPWM oscillator
voltage with the RMI pin voltage and sets the duty for the lowest drive state.
2. High speed ↔ low speed mode
The PWM signal is controlled by comparing the CPWM oscillation voltage that cycles between 1.2V and 3. 8V
and the VTH voltage.
When the VTH voltage is lower, the high and low side transistors are turned on, and when the VTH voltage is
higher, the high side transistor is turned off and the coil current is regenerated through the low side transistor.
Thus the output on duty increases as the VTH voltage becomes lower, the coil current increases, and the motor
speed increases.
Rotation speed feedback is provided by the FG output.
3. Full-speed mode
The LB11961 switches to full-speed mode above a certain temperature.
4. Thermistor removed mode
If the thermistor is removed, the VTH input voltage will rise. However, the output will go to full drive at 100%
and the motor will run at full speed.
