The full-scale (100%) chopping current is calculated in Equation 1.
V
I = 5¾ R CHOP

Example:
If a 0.5-Ω sense resistor is used and the VREFx pin is 3.3 V, the full-scale (100%) chopping current will be
3.3 V / (5 x 0.5 Ω) = 1.32 A.
Five input pins (I0 - I4) are used to scale the current in the bridge as a percentage of the full-scale current set by
the VREF input pin and sense resistance. The logic inputs I0, I1, I2, I3 and I4 have internal pulldown resistors of
100 kΩ. The function of the pins is shown in Table 3.

Decay Mode
During PWM current chopping, the H-bridge is enabled to drive current through the motor winding until the PWM
current chopping threshold is reached. This is shown in Figure 2 as case 1. The current flow direction shown
indicates the state when the PHASE pin is high.
