TA7291AP/AS(J)/AF

TOSHIBA Bipolar Linear Integrated Circuit Silicon Monolithic

TA7291AP,TA7291AS(J),TA7291AF
Full-Bridge Driver for DC Motors (driver for controlling the forward and reverse rotations)

The TA7291AP/TA7291AS (J)/TA7291AF is a full-bridge driver to

control the forward and reverse rotations. Each driver can select
TA7291AP
one of four modes: CW, CCW, stop, brake.
The TA7291AP is designed to provide output currents of 1.0 A (typ.)
and 2.0 A (peak). The TA7291AS (J)/TA7291AF is designed to
provide output currents of 0.4 A (typ.) and 1.2 A (peak).
There are two different power supply pins for each driver: one on
the output side and the other on the control side of the driver. Also,
there is the Vref pin on the output side. This pin is available for
adjusting the voltage supplied to the motor.
The input circuit of the driver is compatible with CMOS logic
because it draws a small amount of input current. TA7291AS (J)

Notes

· Power On/Off
At power on, VCC must be applied simultaneously or before VS. At power off, VCC must be removed
simultaneously or after VS.

· Input Circuit VCC standby

A logic high on the VIN pin activates the input
circuit as shown in the figure.

1.3 kW
10 kW
When a voltage greater than or equal to VIN (high) VIN
VIN 1 kW
is applied to the pin, the circuit is active. When a 5/9/7
voltage less than or equal to VIN (low) is applied to

4.5 kW
the pin or the pin is grounded, the circuit is or
inactive. 6/1/9
When the pin is high, the input current IIN flows
into the input circuit. So, be careful about the 5 kW

10 kW
output impedance of the first stage.
The input hysteresis is 0.7 V (typ.). At power on
(VCC), set both input pins IN1 and IN2 to low.

· Output Circuit 8/6/15

Output high voltage

Q1
· Operation based on the Vref voltage Q2
A or 10/3/13
The Vref voltage is increased by twice the value
2/7/4 VOUT
of VBE (small signal) in the Vref circuit. Then,
Vref Vref
the voltage is applied to the base A of Q2 (power 4/8/5
circuit
transistor 2). As a result, the voltage which is
reduced by the value of VBE (Q2) appears on the
VOUT pin.
VOUT = Vref + 2VBE－VBE (Q2) ~- Vref + 0.7 V
· Vref pin
1/5/1
The Vref pin must not be left open when unused.
In this case, connect it via a protection resistor
(3 kW or more) to the VS pin. Otherwise, it TA7291AP/TA7291AS (J)/TA7291AF
might cause oscillation.
Vref must be £ VS.

Protection Features
Overcurrent Protection Circuit
The overcurrent protection circuit detects a current flowing through the upper power transistor. If the
current exceeds a predetermined value (about 2.5 A), the circuit turns all the power transistors off.
However, it does not always prevent overcurrent. If an output pin is shorted or grounded, the IC might be
destroyed before operation of the overcurrent protection circuit. So, be sure to connect a resistor or fuse to
the power supply (VS) line. (See “Application Circuit.”)

Thermal Shutdown Circuit

If the chip temperature exceeds a predetermined limit (about 170°C), the thermal shutdown circuit turns
all the power transistors off.

Note 1: Select the optimum value for the capacitor by experiment.

Note 2: Insert the current limiting resistor R1 to protect the IC from overcurrent.

Note 3: When VS = Vref, insert the resistor R2 (3 kW or more) to protect the Vref pin from being damaged by a
surge.

Note 4: The IC may be destroyed due to short circuit between output pins, an output pin and VCC, or an output pin
and ground. Design the output line, VCC (VM, VS, VEE) lines and the ground line with great care.

Note
· Shoot-through current occurs when the mode is switched. The driver must enter the stop mode for
approximately 100 ms before switching between CW and CCW modes, or CW/CCW and brake modes.
· The proper IC functions are not guaranteed at power on/off. Before using the IC, check that any IC malfunctions
that are possible at power on/off will not cause a problem in the IC application.
