The L6228Q is a DMOS fully integrated stepper
motor driver with non-dissipative overcurrent
protection, realized in BCDmultipower technology,
which combines isolated DMOS power transistors
with CMOS and bipolar circuits on the same chip.
The device includes all the circuitry needed to
drive a two-phase bipolar stepper motor including:
a dual DMOS full bridge, the constant off time
PWM current controller that performs the
chopping regulation and the phase sequence
generator, that generates the stepping sequence.
Available in VFQFPN32 5 mm x 5 mm package,
the L6228Q features a non-dissipative
overcurrent protection on the high side power
MOSFETs and thermal shutdown.

9OUT1BPower output Bridge B output 1.
RC network pin. A parallel RC network connected between this pin and
ground sets the current controller OFF-time of the bridge B.
Bridge B source pin. This pin must be connected to power ground through a
sensing power resistor.
Bridge B current controller reference voltage.
Do not leave this pin open or connected to GND.
Step mode selector. HIGH logic level sets HALF STEP mode, LOW logic level
sets FULL STEP mode.
If not used, it has to be connected to GND or +5 V.
Decay mode selector. HIGH logic level sets SLOW DECAY mode. LOW logic
level sets FAST DECAY mode.
If not used, it has to be connected to GND or +5 V.
Chip enable. LOW logic level switches OFF all power MOSFETs of both
bridge A and bridge B. This pin is also connected to the collector of the
