步進馬達驅動器

Toshiba's original ADMD technology tracks input current more closely than the conventional mixed-decay mode, making highly efficient motor control possible at high rpm.

Toshiba's original ACDS technology enables motor drive with highly accurate constant current without requiring external current-sensing resistors.
The reduced part count also helps reduce the board area and the bill-of-material (BOM) cost.

AGC is Toshiba’s unique stepping motor technology to automatically optimize the drive current in real time according to load torques. It helps reduce unnecessary current and drastically cut power consumption and heat generation.

It has built-in circuits for detecting abnormalities such as low-voltage (UVLO), overcurrent (ISD), and overheating (TSD).

This makes it possible to build a highly reliable system.

(Note: The built-in error detection function differs depending on the product.)

Whereas the full-step drive turns the currents of the two windings on and off and rotates them by a fixed angle, the micro-step drive can rotate them at a step angle finer than the basic step angle by changing the current ratio of the two windings in a stepwise manner.

The range is 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32, and 1/64 (steps).

Fabricated using a state-of-the-art high-voltage analog process (130-nm BiCD process), Toshiba's stepping motor drivers combine low-voltage control circuitry with high-voltage DMOS output drivers on the same monolithic structure. Consequently, high-voltage motor drivers rated at 84 V can be housed in the small WQFN48 (7 mm × 7 mm) package, which helps reduce the solution size.
