The LV8731V is a 2−channel H−bridge driver IC that can switch a
stepper motor driver, which supports micro−step drive with 1/16−step
resolution, and two channels of a brushed motor driver, which
supports forward, reverse, brake, and standby of a motor. It is ideally
suited for driving brushed DC motors and stepper motors used in
office equipment and amusement applications.
Function
• Single−channel PWM Current Control Stepper Motor Driver
(Selectable with DC Motor Driver Channel 2) Incorporated
Stresses exceeding those listed in the Maximum Ratings table may damage the device. If any of these limits are exceeded, device functionality
should not be assumed, damage may occur and reliability may be affected.
1. Specified circuit board : 90.0 mm × 90.0 mm × 1.6 mm, glass epoxy 2−layer board, with backside mounting.
2. Caution 1: Absolute maximum ratings represent the value which cannot be exceeded for any length of time.
3. Caution 2: Even when the device is used within the range of absolute maximum ratings, as a result of continuous usage under high
temperature, high current, high voltage, or drastic temperature change, the reliability of the IC may be degraded. Please contact us for the
further details.

Functional operation above the stresses listed in the Recommended Operating Ranges is not implied. Extended exposure to stresses beyond
the Recommended Operating Ranges limits may affect device reliability.
1. The data for the case with the Exposed Die−Pad
substrate mounted shows the values when 90% or
more of the Exposed Die−Pad is wet
2. For the set design, employ the derating design with
sufficient margin.
Stresses to be derated include the voltage, current,
junction temperature, power loss, and mechanical
stresses such as vibration, impact, and tension.
Accordingly, the design must ensure these stresses
to be as low or small as possible.
The guideline for ordinary derating is shown
below :
(1) Maximum value 80% or less for the voltage
rating
(2) Maximum value 80% or less for the current
rating
(3) Maximum value 80% or less for the
temperature rating
3. After the set design, be sure to verify the design
with the actual product.
Confirm the solder joint state and verify also the
reliability of solder joint for the Exposed Die−Pad,
etc.
Any void or deterioration, if observed in the solder
joint of these parts, causes deteriorated thermal
conduction, possibly resulting in thermal
destruction of IC
