Diagrams
How to use the diagrams:
1. What is the maximum motor current
in the application?
• The ambient temperature sets the
maximum allowable power
dissipation in the IC, which
relates to the motor currents and
the duty cycle of the bilevel
function. For PBD 3517/1, without
any measures taken to reduce
the chip temperature via
heatsinks, the power dissipation
vs. temperature follows the curve
in figure 4.
• Figures 9 and 10 give the
relationship between motor
currents and their dissipations.
The sum of these power dissipa-
tions must never exceed the
previously-established value, or
life expectancy will be drastically
shortened.
• When no bilevel or voltage
doubling is utilized, the maximum
motor current can be found
directly in figure 9.
2. How to choose timing components.
• Figure 7 shows the relationship
between CT, RT, and tOn. Care
must be taken to keep the tOn time
short, otherwise the current in the
winding will rise to a value many
times the rated current, causing
an overheated IC or motor.
3. What is the maximum tOn pulse-width
at a given frequency?
• Figure 8 shows the relationship
between duty cycle, pulse width,
and step frequency. Check
specifications for the valid
operating area.
4. Figures 4, 5 and 6 show typical
saturation voltages vs. output current
levels for different output transistors.
5. Shaded areas represent operating
conditions outside the safe operating
area.
