Circuit for use when large output currents are required and heat dissipation is high.
Design Documentation (See the application circuit diagrams)
1. Power-supply voltage (V
IN
pin)
The resistor R1 (when V
CC
= 12 V R1 = 330
, and when V
CC
= 24 R1 = about 1.2 k
) is inserted between V
IN
and
the power supply V
CC
pin. When the I
CC
current is set in the range 6 to 50 mA, the V
IN
pin will be regulated to be
6.7 V. Not only does this provide stability with respect to power-supply voltage variations and motor kickback, but it
also provides adequate strength to withstand surges.
2. Output transistors (OUT1 and OUT2 pins)
A Zener diodes with the following characteristics is inserted between the collector and base of each output transistor
to absorb kickback voltages at 57 V (typical) and provide output protection.
Sustained output voltage : V
O
= 65 V minimum (design guarantee)
Output current
: I
O
= 1.5 A maximum
Output saturation voltage : V
O
sat = 1.25 V/1.0 A (typical)
Safe operating range
: I
O
= 1.0 A, V
OLM
= 57 V, t = 200 s
3. Output circuit kickback voltage protection (Z1 and Z2 pins)
These ICs support output protection that minimizes kickback noise by changing the kickback absorption voltage and
absorption method according to the output current and power-supply voltage used.
-- When the Z1 and Z2 pins are shorted
The output protection voltage will be 32 V (typical) using a V
CC
= 12 V power supply.
-- When the Z1 and Z2 pins are open
The output protection voltage will be 57 V (typical) using a V
CC
= 24 V power supply.
-- With a Zener diode inserted between Z1 and V
CC
or between Z1 and ground
This technique handles 120 mm H speed applications which require large output currents and involve large
amounts of heat generated in the IC by dissipating the motor coil switching loss in external Zener diodes.
4. Output protection when the motor is lock (C, RD, and FG pins)
This circuit detects motor stopping due to, for example, overloading, and cuts the coil current. It also automatically
recovers drive and motor turning from the output stopped state when the load returns to an appropriate level. The lock
detection time is set with the value of an external capacitor.
When C = 0.47 F
Lock detection time: about 1 second
Lock protection time (output on): about 0.5 second
(output off): about 3 seconds
The RD pin (LB1668) is an open collector output and outputs a low level during drive and a high level when stopped.
The FG pin (LB1667) is an open collector output and is switched between high and low by the drive phase. It goes to
the high level when the motor is stopped.
5. Thermal shutdown
This circuit turns the output off in response to coil shorting or IC overheating.
6. In applications that use an external transistor to turn the cooling fan power on and off, connect a capacitor of about
0.47 to 10 F between the fan power supply V
CC
and ground to provide a regenerative route for the fan motor coil
current.

1. While the blades are turning, the capacitor is charged with a current of about 3 A (typical), and C is discharged by
pulses that correspond to the motor speed.
2. When the blades lock, the capacitor is no longer discharged, and the voltage across the capacitor increases. The
output is turned off when that voltage reaches 0.8
V
IN
.
3. When the output is turned off, the capacitor is discharged at about 0.44 A (typical). When the capacitor voltage falls
under V
TH
2, if the lock state is not yet cleared the capacitor continues discharging until V
TH
1. (Note that the output is
turned on at this time.) These operations, i.e. items 2. and 3., are repeated with a ton:toff ratio of about 1:6 to protect
the motor.
4. If the lock is cleared at the point the capacitor voltage reaches V
TH
2, motor rotation is started by turning the output
on.
