FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION (continued)

Control inputs (EN, DIR, PWM)

The cmos level inputs drive the device as shown in fig.4 and described in the truth table.

The device is activated with enable input HIGH signal. For enable input floating (not connected) or VEN=0V the

device is in standby mode. When activating the device a wake-up time of 50µs is recommended to stabilize the

internal supplies.

The DIR and PWM inputs control the driver of the external H-Bridge transistors. The motor direction can be

choosen with the DIR input, the duty cycle and frequency with the PWM input. Unconnected inputs are defined

by internal pull up resistors. During wake-up and braking and before disactivating the IC via enable both inputs

should be driven HIGH.

SC:Short Circuit

6. Only those external MOS transistors of the H-Bridge which are in short circuit condition are switched off. All others remain driven

by DIR and PWM.
