AMIS-30511

Stresses exceeding Maximum Ratings may damage the device. Maximum Ratings are stress ratings only. Functional operation above the Recommended Operating Conditions is not implied. Extended exposure to stresses above the Recommended Operating Conditions may affect device reliability.
1. For limited time < 0.5 s.
2. Human body model (100 pF via 1.5 k, according to JEDEC EIA−JESD22−A114−B).

The AMIS−30511 is a micro−stepping stepper motor driver for bipolar stepper motors. The chip is connected through I/O pins and a SPI interface with an external microcontroller. The AMIS−30511 contains a current−translation table and takes the next micro−step depending on the clock signal on the "NXT" input pin and the status of the "DIR" (=direction) register or input pin. The chip provides a so−called "speed and load angle" output. This allows the creation of stall detection algorithms, step loss detection, and control loops based on load−angle to adjust torque and speed. It is using a proprietary PWM algorithm for reliable current control.

The AMIS−30511 is implemented in I2T100 technology, enabling both high−voltage analog circuitry and digital functionality on the same chip. The chip is fully compatible with the automotive voltage requirements.

The AMIS−30511 is ideally suited for general−purpose stepper motor applications in the automotive, industrial, medical, and marine environment.
