New fully integrated, reliable and compact automotive-qualified drivers for DC motors
The new VIPower™ M0-7 H-bridge family is a set of full integrated and protected bridge circuits especially designed for DC motor control. Covering a wide range of load conditions, thanks to scalable power stages and packages, its combination of state-of-the-art embedded DC or 20-kHz PWM speed control modes with an embedded protection mechanism makes it the ideal solution for driving DC motors in cars. Further embedded features including independent load current sensing on each branch of the H-bridge and open load in off-state as well as chip temperature and V CC reading enhance system simplicity and flexibility, avoiding having to use external components.
