Description

The A8904 is a three-phase brushless dc motor controller/driver designed for applications where accurate control of high-speed motors is required. The three half-bridge outputs are low on-resistance n-channel DMOS devices capable of driving up to 1.25 A. The A8904 provides complete, reliable, self-contained back-EMF sensing, motor startup and running algorithms. A programmable digital frequency-locked loop speed control circuit together with linear current control circuitry provides precise motor speed regulation.

A serial port allows the user to program various features and modes of operation, such as the speed control parameters, startup current limit, sleep mode, direction and diagnostic modes.

The A8904 is fabricated in Allegro¡¯s BCD (Bipolar CMOS DMOS) process, an advanced mixed-signal technology that combines bipolar, analog and digital CMOS, and DMOS power devices.

The A8904 is fabricated in Allegro¡¯s BCD (Bipolar CMOS DMOS) process, an advanced mixed-signal technology that combines bipolar, analog and digital CMOS, and DMOS power devices. The A8904SLB is provided in a 24-lead wide-body SOIC batwing package. The A8904SLP is provided in a thin (<1.2 mm), 28-lead TSSOP package with an exposed thermal pad. Each package type is available in a lead-free version (100% matte tin leadframe).
