New scalable, high-current drivers for brushed DC and stepper motors
Are you tired of dealing with time consuming design challenges to optimize system requirements and performance? Look no further than our new STSPIN9 devices for brushed DC and stepper motors.
With these innovative devices, you can now design motor drive systems that are not only smaller (5 x 5 mm) but also more efficient. Our devices come in a wide voltage operating range, with multiple driving modes, two embedded current controls methods, making them highly scalable and perfect for a wide range of applications. Plus, with our comprehensive ecosystem, including easy-to-use evaluation boards, software, and documentation, you'll be able to accelerate your development process and get your system up and running in no time.
STSPIN9 devices can be used in a variety of domestic and industrial applications. These include factory automation systems, textile machines, industrial and home robots, stage lighting, ATM and money handling machines, antenna controllers, vending machines, and most common home and industrial appliances.

Presenting the STSPIN9 series
Designed for use in a variety of applications from domestic to industrial systems, STSPIN9 devices feature a wide input voltage range of 5 to 58 V range making it suitable for driving brushed DC motors and bipolar stepper motors.
Embedding system protection features including overcurrent, overtemperature and short-circuit protection, and low bus-voltage detection with under-voltage lockout (UVLO), these devices also integrate two operational amplifiers for current sensing that provide accuracy on design performance. STSPIN9 devices also support up to seven driving methods in parallel mode for higher design flexibility and scalability while streamlining the bill of materials.
