The AH5792 is a single chip solution for driving single-coil
brush-less DC fans and motors. The AH5792 employs a
bidirectional full bridge driver output stage for single coil fan
motor applications. The device includes features such as
Rotor Lock Protection with rotor lock detection and automatic
self-restart to avoid damage to the coil when the rotor is
blocked.
The AH5792 also offers an externally controlled Tachometer
(Frequency Generator Pin) open -drain output which makes it
easier to connect with external interface such as hardware
monitoring. The FG is half (1/2) the magnetic change
frequency.
The devices are packaged in SOT553 and SOT 89-5L small
outline packages for applications such as small motors like
vibration motors or ultra thin cooling fans.

Features
• Support single-phase full wave min fan driver
• Built-in Hall sensor input amplifier
• Low voltage startup ( Vdd=1.8V )
• Lock detection and automatic self-restart
• Without external timing capacitor, Reduces the numbers
of external component required
Notes: 1. Reverse connection of power supply may break the device. A countermeasure is needed such as using reverse power protection
diode D1 between power supply and Vdd terminal. In such case of using reverse power protection diode D1 because of there is no
way to return current to power supply, please take necessary measures like below.
- Connect Dz (Zener diode) between Vdd and Vss terminal, not to exceed the absolute maximum rating voltage.
- Connect a capacitor C1 between Vdd and Vss terminal, to make the path of return current to power supply.
The AH5792 has an open-drain tachometer FG output that follows the half (1/2) the magnetic change frequency. A pull-up resistor
(10Kohm, typically for System Power = 5V) connected to a supply voltage.
Notes: 3. In “Normal spinning, the FG shall change its state at each rising edge of OUT2. In “Mechanical lock”, the FG state is kept as the
same as the moment of motor locked detected.
4. When magnetic is locked as “S” pole, then out1 is kept on “L”, out2 is a clock with Ton/Toff ratio. When magnetic is locked at
“N” pole, then out 2 is kept on “L”, out 1 is a clock with Ton/Toff ratio.
5. When “Re-start spinning” occurs, the motor shall ramp up to the “Normal Spinning” speed from zero. It depends on the motor
characteristics.

LIFE SUPPORT
Diodes Incorporated products are specifically not authorized for use as critical components in life support devices or systems without
the express written approval of the Chief Executive Officer of Diodes Incorporated. As used herein:
A. Life support devices or systems are devices or systems which:
1. are intended to implant into the body, or
2. support or sustain life and whose failure to perform when properly used in accordance with instructions for use provided
in the labeling can be reasonably expected to result in significant injury to the user.
B. A critical component is any component in a life support device or system whose failure to perform can be reasonably expected
to cause the failure of the life support device or to affect its safety or effectiveness.
Customers represent that they have all necessary expertise in the safety and regulatory ramifications of their life support dev ices or
systems, and acknowledge and agree that they are solely responsible for all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning their products and any use of Diodes Incorporated products in such safety-critical, life support devices or systems,
notwithstanding any devices- or systems-related information or support that may be provided by Diodes Incorporated. Further,
Customers must fully indemnify Diodes Incorporated and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use of Diodes
Incorporated products in such safety-critical, life support devices or systems.
