The H-Bridge is protected against over temperature
and short circuits and has an under voltage lockout
for all the supply voltages 鈥漋
S
鈥?(Main DC power sup-
ply). All malfunctions cause the output stages to go
tristate.
The H-Bridge contains integrated free-wheel diodes.
In case of free-wheeling condition, the lowside tran-
sistor is switched on in parallel of its diode to reduce
the current injected into the substrate.
Switching in parallel is only allowed, if the voltage-
level of the according output-stage is below the
ground-level.In this case it must be ensured, that the
upper transistor is switched off.
DESCRIPTION
The L9230 is an SPI controlled H-Bridge, designed
for the control of DC and stepper motors in safety crit-
ical applications and under extreme environmental
conditions.
