Switching patterns are generated by the phase sequence generator and by the PWM current controller. The power MOSFET cross conduction in one bridge leg, is avoided introducing a dead time (tDT = 1 μs typical), between FETs switch off and the switch on. VS (pin19) and GND2 (pin14) must be connected to the supply voltage, which can range from 10 V to 42 V. 4.2 Logic interface Logic interface connects the external logic signal to the proper internal blocks. RESET (pin3), CLOCK (pin4), CW/CCW (pin5), CONTROL (pin9) and HALF/FULL (pin10) have a 10kΩ pull-up resistor to VSS (pin1), in order to prevent floating pins; VSS can be connected to 3.3 V or 5 V, allowing the interface with the most popular microcontroller. The internal structure is shown in Figure 8. EN (pin8) has identical input structure, with the exception that the MOSFET drain of the over-current and thermal protection is also connected to this pin (see Figure 9). Due to this connection some care needs to be taken in driving this pin. Inside the module a 100 kΩ resistor and a 100 nF capacitor is provided, an open collector driving is therefore the suggested solution. Doc ID 17160 Rev 1 11/23 Function description and application information 4.3 Figure 8. Logic inputs internal structure Figure 9. EN pin open collector driving SPMD150STP PWM current controller The control block is composed by a constant Off-time PWM current controller for both two bridges. The current control circuit senses the bridge current, by sensing the voltage drop across a sense resistor connected between the source of the two lower power MOSFETs and ground. As the current in the motor buildup, the voltage across the sense resistor increases proportionally. When the voltage on the sense resistor becomes greater than the voltage at the reference inputs VREFA (pin6) or VREFB (pin11), the sense comparator triggers a mono-stable circuit, switching the bridge off. The bridge MOSFETs remain off for the time set by pin RCA (pin7) or RCB (pin12); during this Off-time (see Figure 11, toff versus Roff and Coff), the motor phase current recirculates as defined by the selected decay mode, described in the next section. When the mono-stable circuit times out, the bridge will turn on again. Since the internal dead time tDT, used to prevent cross conduction in the bridge, delays the turn on of the power MOSFETs, the effective Off-time is the sum of the mono-stable time plus the tDT (1µs). To set the toff relative to Bridge A, it is necessary to connect a proper resistor Ra and/or a proper capacitor Ca in parallel between pin RCA and GND1, see Figure 10 and Figure 11; To set the toff relative to Bridge B, it is necessary to connect a proper resistor Rb and/or a proper capacitor Cb in parallel between pin RCB and GND1, see Figure 10 and Figure 11; A 56 kΩ resistor and a 470 pF capacitor are already present between pin RCA/B and GND1 inside the 12/23 Doc ID 17160 Rev 1 SPMD150STP Function description and application information module, fixing a typical 16 µs off time for both bridges. The toff value can be modified adding a capacitor to GND1, increasing the off time, or adding a resistor to GND1 decreasing the Off-time. Figure 10. toff setting circuit Roff = Ra // 56kΩ [kΩ], Coff = Ca + 470pF [pF] Figure 11. toff versus Roff and Coff To set the maximum motor phase current it is necessary to give the proper reference voltage at input VREFA (pin6) and VREFB (pin11). The relationship between the voltage at VREFx pin and the phase current IOUTx is the following: IOUTx = VREFx / 0.192 [A] An internal 100 kΩ resistor and a 470 pF capacitor are connected in parallel between VREFx and GND1 (see Figure 12). Doc ID 17160 Rev 1 13/23 Function description and application information SPMD150STP Figure 12. VREFA and VREFB internal connection The voltage at VREFA and VREFB can be supplied in two way: ● Using an external source (see Figure 13), driving VREFA and VREFB pins together or separately as in the micro-stepping mode (i.e: a micro-controller fixes a variable voltage to get variable current in the stepper motor phases). Figure 13. VREFx from an external source ● Using the module reference voltage source, REF (pin2) (see Figure 14), which supplies 1.225 V. The REF pin has a 10 kΩ resistor in series, take that in account during design. ● In this case a proper resistor Rx must be connected between REF and GND1, VREFA and VREFB will be connected together to REF pin (see Figure 14). Use following equation to calculate Rx: Rx = (500 x IOUTx) / [319 - (60 x IOUTx)] [kΩ] 14/23 Doc ID 17160 Rev 1 where IOUTx = [A] SPMD150STP Function description and application information Figure 14. VREFx from internal source 4.4 Decay modes The CONTROL input is used to select the behavior of the bridge during the off time. When the CONTROL pin is low, the fast decay mode is selected and both transistors in the bridge are switched off during the off time. When the CONTROL pin is high, the slow decay mode is selected and only the low side transistor of the bridge is switched off during the off time. Figure 15 shows the operation of the bridge in the fast decay mode. At the start of the off time, both of the power MOSFETs are switched off and the current recirculates through the two opposite free wheeling diodes. The current decays with a high di/dt, since the voltage across the coil is essentially the power supply voltage. After the dead time, the lower power MOSFET in parallel with the conducting diode is turned on in synchronous rectification mode. In applications where the motor current is low it is possible that the current can decay completely to zero during the off time. At this point if both of the power MOS were operating in the synchronous rectification mode it would then be possible for the current to build in the opposite direction. To prevent this only the lower power MOS is operated in synchronous rectification mode. This operation is called quasi-synchronous rectification mode. When the mono-stable circuit times out, the power FETs are turned on again after some delay set by the dead time to prevent cross conduction.

At the start of the Offtime, the lower power FET is switched off and the current recirculates around the upper half of the bridge. Since the voltage across the coil is low, the current decays slowly. After the dead time the upper power FET is operated in the synchronous rectification mode. When the mono-stable circuit times out, the lower power FET is turned on again after some delay set by the dead time to prevent cross conduction. Figure 16.

Two full step modes are possible, the normal drive mode where both phases are energized each step and the wave drive mode where only one phase is energized at a time. The drive mode is selected by the HALF/FULL input and the current state of the sequence generator as described below. A rising edge of the CLOCK input advances the state machine to the next state. The direction of rotation is set by the CW/CCW input. The RESET input resets the state machine to Home State. 4.5.1 Half step mode A logic level high on the HALF/FULL input selects half step mode. Figure 17 shows the motor current waveforms and the state diagram for the phase sequencer generator. At startup or after a RESET the phase sequencer is at state 1, home state. After each clock pulse the state changes following the sequence 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,… if CW/ CCW is high (Clockwise movement) or 1,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,… if CW/CCW is low (Counterclockwise movement). 16/23 Doc ID 17160 Rev 1 SPMD150STP Function description and application information Figure 17.

If the low level is applied when the state ma1chine is at an ODD numbered state, the normal drive mode is selected. Figure 18 shows the motor current waveform state diagram for the state machine of the phase sequencer generator. The normal drive mode can be selected easily, by holding the HALF/FULL input low and applying a RESET. AT start -up or after a RESET the state machine is in state1. After the HALF/FULL input is kept low, state changes following the sequence 1,3,5,7,… if CW/CCW is high (Clockwise movement) or 1,7,5,3,… if CW/CCW is low (Counterclockwise movement). Figure 18. Normal drive mode ,287$ ,287% &/2&. 6WDUW8SRU5HVHW ',1 4.5.3 Wave drive mode (full-step one-phase-on) A low level on the pin HALF/FULL input selects the full step mode. If the low level is applied when the state machine is at an EVEN numbered state, the wave drive mode is selected. Figure 19 shows the motor current waveform and the state diagram for the state machine of the phase sequence generator. To enter the wave drive mode the state machine must be in an EVEN numbered state. An example of selecting the wave drive mode is the following: to apply a RESET first; keeping the HALF/FULL input high, to apply one pulse to the CLOCK input; then, to apply the logic level Low to the HALF/FULL input. This sequence first forces the state machine to sate 1. Doc ID 17160 Rev 1 17/23 Function description and application information SPMD150STP The clock pulse, with the HALF/FULL input high, advances the state machine from state 1 to either state 2 or 8 depending on the CW/CCW input. Starting from this point, keeping the HALF/FULL input low, the state machine will advance following the sequence 2,4,6,8,… if CW/CCW is high (Clockwise movement) or 8,6,4,2,… if CW/ CCW is low (Counterclockwise movement). Figure 19. Wave drive mode ,287$ ,287% &/2&. 6WDUW8SRU5HVHW ',1 4.5.4 Microstepping STMD150STP has two separate control current loop, with the possibility to set the current level in an independent way (by means VREFA and VREFB); this feature make possible the actuation of the micro-stepping mode. Micro-stepping mode is a full step mode performed with a not fixed current in the motor phases, but with a current varying in a sinusoidal mode; that means the current flowing in the motor is not a square wave, but a sinusoidal wave. Main commands remain the same, but during the period of each clock step, VREFA and VREFB are incremented or decremented through a defined number of level, this number gives the name to the micro-stepping granularity; as example, a 64 micro-step per step means that, for each “standard” step there are 64 step values on VREFA/B (from zero to VREFA/B max and from VREFB/A max to zero, see Figure 20) 18/23 Doc ID 17160 Rev 1 SPMD150STP Function description and application information Figure 20. Microstepping 4.6 Non-dissipative overcurrent protection The SPMD150STP integrates an overcurrent protection circuit. This circuit provides protection against a short circuit to ground or between two phases of the bridge. To implement the over current detection, a sensing element that delivers a small but precise fraction of the output current is implemented with each high side power MOSFET. Since this current is a small fraction of the output current, there is very little additional power dissipation. This current is compared with an internal reference, when the output current reaches the detection threshold (typically 5.6A) the OCP comparator signals a fault condition. If a fault condition is detected, the EN pin is pulled below the turn off threshold (1.3V typical) by an internal open drain MOSFET with a pull down capability of 4mA.

Figure 21. Overcurrent protection waveforms 4.7 Thermal characteristics The case-to-ambient thermal resistance is 8 °C/W. This produces a 40 °C temperature increase of the module surface for 5 W of internal dissipation. According to ambient temperature and/or to maximum case operating temperature (85 °C), an additional heat sink or forced ventilation may be required. 4.8 Case grounding The module case is internally connected to GND1 (pin13) and GND2 (pin14). To obtain additional effective EMI shield, the PCB area below the module can be used as an effective sixth side shield. 20/23 Doc ID 17160 Rev 1 SPMD150STP 5 Package mechanical data Package mechanical data In order to meet environmental requirements, ST offers these devices in different grades of ECOPACK® packages, depending on their level of environmental compliance.
