STK673-010-E

No.5708-5/15

Set Equation of Output Current IO Peak Value

IO peak = Vref ÷ K K = 0.63 (V/A)

where

Vref

≤ 0.5 × VCC2

Vref = VCC2 × Rox ÷ (R01 + Rox)

Rox = (R02

× 4.0kΩ) ÷ (R02 + 4.0kΩ)

• R02 is preferably set to be 100Ω in order to minimize the effect of the internal impedance (4.0kΩ ±30%) of

STK673-010-E

• For noise reduction in 5V system, put the GND side of bypass capacitor (220μF) of VCC1 (shown in a thick line in

the above Sample Application Circuit) in the vicinity of pins 27 and 28 of the hybrid IC.

• Set the capacitance value of the bypass capacitor C1 such that a ripple current of a capacitance, which varies in

accordance with the increase of motor current, lies in an allowable range.

• K in the above-mentioned set equation varies within ±5 to ±10% depending on the inductance L and resistance value

R of the used motor. Check the peak value setting of IO upon actual setting.

As shown in the table, TU terminal is only effective for Excitation Nos. (3) and (7).

Although the present hybrid IC is not damaged even when TU = 0 is mistakenly input in Excitation, other than

Excitation Nos. (3) and (7), motor vibration or motor current may increase.

* Timing charts for 3-phase stepping motor driver is illustrated on pages 9 to 13 for exemplary operations of Enable

Hold, CW/CCW for Excitation Nos. (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (9), and Excitation No. (4).
