A3965
DMOS Dual Full-Bridge PWM Motor Driver
Not for New Design
Date of status change: November 1, 2004
Recommended Substitutions:
The A3965 is a fairly unique device within Allegro’s portfolio, typically
fitting niche low-voltage, battery-driven stepper motor applications.
Our closest recommended alternatives are:
• For customers looking for a stepper motor driver for battery-driven
applications, we recommend the A3977, A3982, A3983, or A3984.
• The closest device functionally is the A3966, if supply current and a
low logic voltage (4.75 to 5.5 V) are not issues.
NOTE: For detailed information on purchasing options, contact your
local Allegro field applications engineer or sales representative.

MOS DUAL FULL-BRIDG
PWM MOTOR DRIVER
Designed for Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) current control of low
voltage stepper motors, the A3965S is capable of output currents to ± 500 mA
and operating voltages to 20 V.
The A3965 is particularly attractive for low power or battery
operated motors where minimal power consumption is desired. A SLEEP
mode disables all circuitry and typically draws less than 1µA supply current
from motor and logic supply. During operation the fixed frequency ON
pulses of each H-bridge are 180 degrees out of phase to minimize the peak
demand required of the motor supply allowing savings in size and cost of
external power supply components.
PHASE and ENABLE input terminals are provided for use in
controlling the speed and direction of a stepper motor with externally applied
PWM control signals.
* Output current rating may be limited by duty cycle,
ambient temperature, and heat sinking. Under any set of
conditions, do not exceed the specified current rating or a
junction temperature of 150°C.
*Measured with 062" thick FR4, two sided PCB with 1 sq
inch copper area.
Internal circuit protection includes thermal shutdown with
hysteresis, undervoltage monitoring of V
current protection. Special power up sequencing is not required.
The A3965 is supplied in a 24-lead plastic SOIC with a copper
batwing tab (suffix ‘LB’).

Functional Description
Sleep Mode. The input pin SLEEP is dedicated to put the
device into a minimum current draw mode. All circuits are
disabled including the VDD undervoltage monitor.

Current Regulation. Load current is regulated by a
fixed frequency PWM control circuit. When the outputs of
the DMOS H-bridge are turned on, current increases in the
motor winding until it reaches a value given by:

TRIP
REF
/(6*R
At the trip point, the sense comparator resets the source
enable latch, turning off the source. At this point, load
inductance causes the current to recirculate until the end
fixed frequency cycle. (see timing diagram)
VREF. The V
voltage is divided down by 6 and
REF
compared to the voltage across the sense resistor to set the
value of bridge current that will trip the PWM comparator.

Blank Time. When a source driver turns on, a current
spike occurs due to the reverse recovery currents of the
clamp diodes and/or switching transients related to
distributed capacitance in the load. To prevent this current
spike from erroneously resetting the source enable latch, the
sense comparator is blanked. The blank duration is
determined by the time it takes to charge the external RC
