The 34921 power IC integrates multiple motor drivers, multiple power regulators, and most other analog functions a small consumer motion-enabled product needs. The 34921's circuitry is fully protected with current limiting, short-circuit shutdown, over-temperature, overvoltage, and under-voltage detection. Supervisory functions can be read and programmed through a 8-MHz Serial Interface. A 5.0 V dual-mode (linear or switching) voltage regulator, 3.3 V switching buck regulator, and a voltage-selectable (1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V) linear regulator provide power management. Two H-Bridges and a configurable motor driver are provided for controlling two dc motors and one unipolar stepper motor. The highly integrated 34921 brings together sensing, communication, power management, system protection, and motor control in one device. |
