DESCRIPTION
The UC3717 has been designed to control and drive the current in
one winding of a bipolar stepper motor. The circuit consists of an LS-
TTL-compatible logic input, a current sensor, a monostable and an
output stage with built-in protection diodes. Two UC3717s and a few
external components form a complete control and drive unit for LS-
TTL or micro-processor controlled stepper motor systems.
The UC1717 is characterized for operation over the full military tem-
perature range of -55°C to +125°C, the UC2717 is characterized for
-25°C to +85°C, and the UC3717 is characterized for 0°C to +70°C.
• Current Levels can be Selected in Steps
or Varied Continuously
• Thermal Overload Protection
