LV8044LP
For Digital Still Camera
6-channel Motor Driver IC
Overview
The LV8044LP is a 6-channel motor driver IC for digital still camera.
Functions
• Two microstep drive H-bridge driver channels.
• Two microstep drive/PWM saturated drive switchable H-bridge driver channels.
• Two constant-current drive H-bridge driver channels.
• Drive mode switchable between 2-phase, 1-2 phase full torque, 1-2 phase, and 4W1-2 phase (channels 1, 2, 3, and 4).
• Microstep drive step advance controlled by a single step signal input (channels 1, 2, 3, and 4).
• Ability to set the hold current to one of four levels (channels 1, 2, 3, and 4).
• Ability to set the constant-current reference voltage to one of 16 levels from the serial data (channels 5 and 6).
• Eight-bit 3-wire serial control.
• Three on-chip photosensor driver circuits.

Serial Data Input Specifications
1. Serial Data Input Setup
First set STB low and then input the SDATA and SCLK signals. The SCLK signal is not accepted when STB is high.
SDATA inputs the data in the order D0, D1, ... D6, D7.
Data is transferred on the rising edge of SCLK and after all data has been transferred, all the data is latched on the rising
edge of STB.
2. Timing with which the Serial Data Settings are Reflected in the Output
• STP timing mode (applies to microstep driver settings)
Type 1: The hold, reset, and enable settings, as well as the reference voltage setting are reflected at the same time as
the STB signal data latch operation.
Type 2: The forward/reverse (FR) and the excitation setting mode (MS) setting that are set at STP setup are reflected
in the output at the next clock rising edge after data latch.
• STB timing (applies to settings other than the above)
Type 1: The PWM driver, constant-current driver, PI, and other settings are reflected at the same time as the STB signal
data latch operation.

The output current setting reference voltage can be switched between four levels with the serial data.
This setting is useful for saving power in the motor powered hold state.
Calculating the Set Current
Since the reference voltage can be modified (0.2, 0.134, 0.1, and 0.66V) with the serial data, the output current can be
set with the reference voltage and the resistor RF connected between the RF pin and ground.
IOUT = (<reference voltage> × <set current ratio>)/<RF resistor value>
Example: If the reference voltage is 0.2 V, the set current ratio is 100%, and the RF resistor value is 1Ω, then the output
current will be that shown below.
IOUT = 0.2V × 100%/1Ω = 200mA

Each of the current modes operates with the follow sequence.
• The IC enters charge mode when the chopping oscillation starts. (A period of charge mode is forcibly present in 1/8
of the period, regardless of which of the coil current (ICOIL) and the set current (IREF) is larger.)
• In charge mode, the coil current (ICOIL) and the set current (IREF) are compared.
If an ICOIL < IREF state exists during the charge period:
The IC operates in charge mode until ICOIL ≥ IREF. After that, it switches to slow decay mode and then switches to
fast decay mode in the last 1/8 of the period.
If no ICOIL < IREF state exists during the charge period:
The IC switches to fast decay mode and the coil current is attenuated with the fast decay operation until the end of the
chopping period.
The above operation is repeated. Normally, in the sine wave increasing direction the IC operates in slow (+fast) decay
mode, and in the sine wave decreasing direction the IC operates in fast decay mode until the current is attenuated and
reaches the set value and the IC operates in slow decay mode.

Basic Set Current Step Switching (STEP pin) and Forward/Reverse Switching (D3 in the serial data)
Operations
The IC internal D/A converter advances by 1 bits on the rising edge of the input step pulse.
The CW/CCW mode can be switched with the serial data (100, D3, ****) setting. The operation progresses with the
position number decreasing in CW mode and increasing in CCW mode.
In CW mode, the channel 2 current phase is delayed by 90 degrees relative to the channel 1 current.
In CCW mode, the channel 2 current phase is advanced by 90 degrees relative to the channel 1 current.

Output Enable Function (D6 in the serial data)
When the OE bit in the serial data, D6 (100, ***, D6, *), is set to 0, the output is turned off and set to the
high-impedance state at the rise of STB.
Since, however, the internal logic circuits operate in this state, the position number will be advanced if a step input is
applied. Therefore, when the OE bit (D6) is returned to 1, a level according to the position number advanced by the step
input will be output.
Counter Reset Function (D5 in the serial data)
When the reset bit in the serial data, D5 (100, **, D5, **), is set to 0, the output goes to the initial state at the rise of STB
and the MO output goes low.
Then, when the reset bit (D5) is next set to 1, the position number will advance at the next step input.
No.A0438-20/25
LV8044LP
Step Hold Function (D4 in the serial data)
When the hold bit in the serial data, D4 (100, *, D4, ***), is set to 1, the external step state at that time is held without
change as the internal step state.
Since the (external) step state is low at the timing of the step hold operation (1) in the figure, the internal step state is
held at the low level, and since the (external) step state is high at the timing of the step hold operation (1), the internal
step state is held at the high level.
When the hold data (D) is set to 0, the internal state is synchronized with the external step signal.
The output is held at the state at the point where the step hold was applied and after the step hold is released, it advances
with the timing of the next step input (rising edge).
As long as the IC is in the hold state, the position number does not advance even if external step pulses are applied.

Channels 5 and 6 Driver Circuit (Constant-current drive)
Output Function
When the channels 5 and 6 driver circuit is used to drive an actuator, it can be controlled either from the serial data or
from the IN51, IN52, IN61, and IN62 parallel signals.
When the parallel input signals IN51 (IN61)/IN52 (IN62) are in the low/low state (note that since these inputs are
pulled down internally in the IC, the open/open state can also be used), the output mode will be determined by the serial
data.
If the parallel input signals are in any state other than the above, the serial data will be ignored and the output mode will
be determined by the parallel inputs.

(When D3 is 0, channel 5 is set, and when D3 is 1, channel 6 is set.)
The constant-current output value is set by the constant-current reference voltage set with the serial data and the value
of the resistor (referred to as "RF" here) connected to the RF5 or RF6 pin.
The formula below is used to calculated the constant-current output value.
