Charge Pump (CP1 and CP2).
used to generate a gate supply greater than V
drive the source FET gates. A 0.22 μF ceramic capaci-
tor is required between CP1 and CP2 for pumping
purposes. A 0.22 μF ceramic capacitor is required
between VCP and the VBB terminals to act as a reser-
voir to operate the high-side FETs.
Sleep Mode.
to minimize power consumption when not the device
is not in use. This disables much of the internal circuit-
ry including the output DMOS, regulator, and charge
pump. Logic low puts the device into Sleep mode,
logic high allows normal operation and startup of the
device into the home position. When asserted low,
the serial port is reset. All bits are reset to 0s, with the
exception of D7, the fi xed off-time MSB, which is set
to 1. This prevents the off-time from being too short,
which could result in a loss of current control. When
coming out of Sleep mode, allow 1 ms before issuing
a step command, to allow the charge pump to stabilize.

overcurrent (OCP) threshold is exceeded, a minimum
of 2 A. The driver will turn off after a short propaga-
tion delay and latch the device. The device will remain
latched until the SLEEP input goes high or VDD

rent path is through the sense resistor. The device will
be protected, however, the device does not see this as a
fault because the current path is not interrupted, so this
condition will not latch the part.
When a bridge turns on, the current will rise and ex-
ceed the overcurrent threshold. After a blank time of
approximately 1μs, the driver will look at the voltage
on the SENSE pin. The voltage on the SENSE pin will
be larger than the voltage set by the VREF pin, and
the bridge will turn off for the time set by the OSC
pin. Panel B of the fi gure below shows a shorted load
condition with an off-time of 30 μs.
