2 General Description
The US90A/91A is a one-chip solution for driving
two-coil brushless DC cooling fans.
Based on the advanced Melexis CMOS process,
the IC contains a Hall-effect sensor, dynamic
offset correction and low side output drivers.
Frequency Generator or Rotation Detection is
available. The open-drain output makes the
connectivity with any external interface such as
hardware monitoring or Super I/O IC easier.
These features are combined with the Melexis
patented no-V_DD design to fit the IC in small 4-pin
VK and VA package.
The device is also delivered in DC package for
automatic assembly.
