Description of operation
(1) Chip enable function
This IC is switched between standby and operating mode by setting the ST pin. In standby mode, the IC is set to
power-save mode and all logic is reset. In addition, the internal regulator circuit and charge pump circuit do not
operate in standby mode.

(3) Blanking period
If, when exercising PWM constant-current chopping control over the motor current, the mode is switched from decay
to charge, the recovery current of the parasitic diode may flow to the current sensing resistance, causing noise to be
carried on the current sensing resistance pin, and this may result in erroneous detection. To prevent this erroneous
detection, a blanking period is provided to prevent the noise occurring during mode switching from being received.
During this period, the mode is not switched from charge to decay even if noise is carried on the current sensing
resistance pin.
This IC is the blanking time is fixed at approximately 2μs.
(4) Chopping frequency setting
For constant-current control, this IC performs chopping operations at the frequency determined by the capacitor
(Cchop) connected between the CHOP pin and GND.
The chopping frequency is set as shown below by the capacitor (Cchop) connected between the CHOP pin and GND.
Fchop = Ichop/ (Cchop × Vtchop × 2) (Hz)
Ichop : Capacitor charge/discharge current, typ 10μA
Vtchop : Charge/discharge hysteresis voltage (Vtup-Vtdown), typ 0.5V
For instance, when Cchop is 220pF, the chopping frequency will be as follows :
Fchop = 10μA/ (220pF × 0.5V × 2) = 45.4kHz

(5) Setting constant-current control
When the current of the motor reaches up to a set current by setting the output current, this IC does the short brake
control by the automatic operation so that the current should not increase more than it.

Based on the voltage input to the VREF pin and the resistance connected between RF and GND, the output current
that is subject to the constant-current control is set using the calculation formula below :
IOUT = (VREF/5)/RF resistance
* The above setting is the output current at 100% of each excitation mode.
The voltage input to the VREF pin can be switched to two-step settings depending on the statuses of the ATT.

The formula used to calculate the output current when using the function for attenuating the VREF input voltage is
given below.
IOUT = (VREF/5) × (attenuation ratio)/RF resistance
Example : At VREF of 1.5V, a reference voltage setting of 100% (ATT = L) and an RF resistance of 0.3Ω, the output
current is set as shown below.
IOUT = 1.5V/5 × 100%/0.3Ω = 1.0A
If, in this state, ATT = H will be as follows :
IOUT = 1.0A × 50% = 500mA

(7) Output short-circuit protection function
This IC incorporates an output short-circuit protection circuit that, when the output has been shorted by an event such
as shorting to power or shorting to ground, sets the output to the standby mode and turns on the warning output in
order to prevent the IC from being damaged. In the channels 1 and 2 operate independently. (Even if the output of
channel 1 has been short-circuited, channel 2 will operate normally.)
(7-1) Output short-circuit protection operation changeover function
Changeover to the output short-circuit protection of IC is made by the setting of EMM pin.

State

Auto reset method
(7-2) Latch type
In the latch mode, when the output current exceeds the detection current level, the output is turned OFF, and this state
is held.
The detection of the output short-circuited state by the IC causes the output short-circuit protection circuit to be
activated.
When the short-circuited state continues for the period of time set using the internal timer (approximately 2μs), the
output in which the short-circuiting has been detected is first set to OFF. After this, the output is set to ON again as
soon as the timer latch time (Tcem) described later has been exceeded, and if the short-circuited state is still detected,
all the outputs of the channel concerned are switched to the standby mode, and this state is held.
This state is released by setting ST to low.

(7-3) Auto reset type
In the automatic reset mode, when the output current exceeds the detection current level, the output waveform
changes to the switching waveform.
As with the latch system, when the output short-circuited state is detected, the short-circuit protection circuit is
activated. When the operation of the short-circuit detection circuit exceeds the timer latch time (Tcem) described later,
the output is changed over to the standby mode and is reset to the ON mode again in 2ms (typ). In this event, if the
overcurrent mode still continues, the switching mode described above is repeated until the overcurrent mode is
canceled.
(7-4) Unusual condition warning output pins (EMO1, EMO2)
The LV8773 is provided with the EMO pin which notifies the CPU of an unusual condition if the protection circuit
operates by detecting an unusual condition of the IC. This pin is of the open-drain output type and when an unusual
condition is detected, the EMO output is placed in the ON (EMO = Low) state.
The EMO1 pin and the EMO2 pin output unusual condition on 2ch side/ 1ch side respectively.
Furthermore, the EMO (EMO2) pin is placed in the ON state when one of the following conditions occurs.
1. Shorting-to-power, shorting-to-ground, or shorting-to-load occurs at the output pin and the output short-circuit
protection circuit is activated.
2. The IC junction temperature rises and the thermal protection circuit is activated.

(7-5) Timer latch time (Tcem)
The time taken for the output to be set to OFF when the output has been short-circuited can be set using capacitor
Ccem, connected between the CEM pin and GND. The value of capacitor Ccem is determined by the formula given
below.
Timer latch : Tcem
Tcem ≈ Ccem × Vtcem/Icem [sec]
Vtcem : Comparator threshold voltage, typ 1V
Icem : CEM pin charge current, typ 10μA
(8) Charge Pump Circuit
When the ST pin is set High, the charge pump circuit operates and the VG pin voltage is boosted from the VM voltage
to the VM + VREG5 voltage.
Begin the drive of the motor after the time of tONG or more because it doesn't turn on the output if the voltage of the
VG pin is not pressured to VM+4V or more.
