The A4987 is designed to operate one stepper motor in full, half, or quarter step mode. The currents in each of the output full-bridges, all N-channel DMOS, are regulated with fixed off-time pulse width modulated (PWM) control circuitry. Each full-bridge peak current is set by the value of an external current sense resistor, RSx , and a reference voltage, VREFx . Percentages of the peak current are set using a 2-bit nonlinear DAC that programs 33%, 66%, or 100% of the peak current, or disables the outputs. Internal PWM Current Control. Each full-bridge is controlled by a fixed off-time PWM current control circuit that limits the load current to a desired value, ITRIP . Initially, a diagonal pair of source and sink FET outputs are enabled and current flows through the motor winding and the current sense resistor, RSx. When the voltage across RSx equals the DAC output voltage, the current sense comparator resets the PWM latch. The latch then turns off the appropriate source driver and initiates a fixed off time decay mode. The maximum value of current limiting is set by the selection of RSx and the voltage at the VREF pin. The transconductance function is approximated by the maximum value of current limiting, ITripMAX (A), which is set by ITripMAX = VREF / ( 8 RS) where RS is the resistance of the sense resistor (Ω) and VREF is the input voltage on the REF pin (V). The 2-bit DAC output reduces the VREF output to the current sense comparator in precise steps, such that Itrip = (%ITripMAX / 100) × ITripMAX It is critical that the maximum rating (0.5 V) on the SENSE1 and SENSE2 pins is not exceeded. Fixed Off-Time. The internal PWM current control circuitry uses a one-shot circuit to control the duration of time that the DMOS FETs remain off. The off-time, tOFF, is determined by the ROSC terminal. The ROSC terminal has two settings: ▪ ROSC tied to VDD or ground — off-time internally set to 30 μs ▪ ROSC through a resistor to ground — off-time is determined by the following formula: tOFF ≈ ROSC ⁄ 825 Blanking. This function blanks the output of the current sense comparators when the outputs are switched by the internal current control circuitry. The comparator outputs are blanked to prevent false overcurrent detection due to reverse recovery currents of the clamp diodes, and switching transients related to the capacitance of the load. The blank time, tBLANK (μs), is approximately tBLANK ≈ 1 μs Shorted-Load and Short-to-Ground Protection. If the motor leads are shorted together, or if one of the leads is shorted to ground, the driver will protect itself by sensing the overcurrent event and disabling the driver that is shorted, protecting the device from damage. In the case of a short-to-ground, the ¯¯L ¯¯E ¯¯E ¯¯P input goes device will remain disabled (latched) until the S high or VDD power is removed. A short-to-ground overcurrent event is shown in figure 1. When the two outputs are shorted together, the current path is through the sense resistor. After the blanking time (≈1 μs) expires, the sense resistor voltage is exceeding its trip value, due to the overcurrent condition that exists. This causes the driver to go into a fixed off-time cycle. After the fixed off-time expires the driver turns on again and the process repeats. In this condition the driver is completely protected against overcurrent events, but the short is repetitive with a period equal to the fixed off-time of the driver. This condition is shown in figure 2. During a shorted load event it is normal to observe both a positive and negative current spike as shown in figure 3, due to the direction change implemented by the Mixed decay feature. This is shown in figure 3. In both instances the overcurrent circuitry is protecting the driver and prevents damage to the device.

The charge pump is used to generate a gate supply greater than that of VBB for driving the source-side FET gates. A 0.1 μF ceramic capacitor, should be connected between CP1 and CP2. In addition, a 0.1 μF ceramic capacitor is required between VCP and VBB, to act as a reservoir for operating the high-side FET gates. 5 A / div. Fault latched Capacitor values should be Class 2 dielectric ±15% maximum, or tolerance R, according to EIA (Electronic Industries Alliance) specifications. VREG (VREG). This internally-generated voltage is used to operate the sink-side FET outputs. The VREG pin must be decoupled with a 0.22 μF ceramic capacitor to ground. VREG is internally monitored. In the case of a fault condition, the FET outputs of the A4987 are disabled. Capacitor values should be Class 2 dielectric ±15% maximum, or tolerance R, according to EIA (Electronic Industries Alliance) specifications. Shutdown. In the event of a fault, overtemperature (excess TJ) or an undervoltage (on VCP), the FET outputs of the A4987 are disabled until the fault condition is removed. At power-on, the UVLO (undervoltage lockout) circuit disables the FET outputs and resets the translator to the Home state. Sleep Mode ( ¯S¯¯L¯¯E¯¯E¯¯P¯ ). To minimize power consumption when the motor is not in use, this input disables much of the internal circuitry including the output FETs, current regulator, and ¯¯L ¯¯E ¯¯E ¯¯P pin puts the A4987 into charge pump. A logic low on the S Sleep mode. When emerging from Sleep mode, in order to allow the charge pump to stabilize, provide a delay of 1 ms before issuing a logic command. t→ Figure 1. Short-to-ground event 5 A / div. Fixed off-time t→ Figure 2. Shorted load (OUTxA → OUTxB) in Slow decay mode Mixed Decay Operation. The bridge operates in Mixed Decay mode, as shown in figures 5 through 7. As the trip point is reached, the A4987 initially goes into a fast decay mode for 31.25% of the off-time, tOFF. After that, it switches to Slow Decay mode for the remainder of tOFF. A timing diagram for this feature appears in figure 4. Synchronous Rectification. When a PWM-off cycle is triggered by an internal fixed-off time cycle, load current recirculates in Mixed Decay mode. This synchronous rectification feature turns on the appropriate FETs during current decay, and effectively shorts out the body diodes with the low FET RDS(ON). This reduces power dissipation significantly, and can eliminate the need for external Schottky diodes in many applications. Synchronous rectification turns off when the load current approaches zero (0 A), preventing reversal of the load current. 5 A / div. Fixed off-time Fast decay portion (direction change) t→ Figure 3.

The printed circuit board should use a heavy groundplane. For optimum electrical and thermal performance, the A4987 must be soldered directly onto the board. On the underside of the A4987 package is an exposed pad, which provides a path for enhanced thermal dissipation. The thermal pad should be soldered directly to an exposed surface on the PCB. Thermal vias are used to transfer heat to other layers of the PCB. In order to minimize the effects of ground bounce and offset issues, it is important to have a low impedance single-point ground, known as a star ground, located very close to the device. By making the connection between the pad and the ground plane directly under the A4987, that area becomes an ideal location for a star ground point. A low impedance ground will prevent ground bounce during high current operation and ensure that the supply voltage remains stable at the input terminal. The two input capacitors should be placed in parallel, and as close to the device supply pins as possible. The ceramic capacitor (CIN1) should be closer to the pins than the bulk capacitor (CIN2). This is necessary because the ceramic capacitor will be responsible for delivering the high frequency current components. The sense resistors, RSx , should have a very low impedance path to ground, because they must carry a large current while supporting very accurate voltage measurements by the current sense comparators. Long ground traces will cause additional voltage drops, adversely affecting the ability of the comparators to accurately measure the current in the windings. The SENSEx pins have very short traces to the RSx resistors and very thick, low impedance traces directly to the star ground underneath the device. If possible, there should be no other components on the sense circuits. Solder A4987 Trace (2 oz.) Signal (1 oz.) Ground (1 oz.) PCB Thermal (2 oz.)
