The new product, supplied in a small package (SSOP16), reduce the required mounting area by 21% compared to products housed in SSOP20 packages. The TC78H610FNG enables a reduction in both PCB cost and equipment size.
Key Features of the New Product
- Small package (SSOP16) supports downsizing and cost reduction
- Can control two brushed DC motors or one stepping motor
- Abnormality detection functions (over current detection, thermal shutdown circuit, and under voltage lockout circuit) improve safety in driving motor
- Consumption current 0μA (typ.) in standby mode
- By adopting shoot-through current protection, the motor can be controlled without consideration for dead time in switching output between ON and OFF.
