Direct Current (BLDC) full wave motor driver with PWM control
For system flexibility the motor speed can be controlled by either an
external PWM signal or by a DC voltage or from a Thermistor
Based on the input signal, the AM4961A adjust the output
To help protect the motor coil, the AM4961A provides a rotor lock
protection which shuts down the output if rotor lock is detected. The
