DIRECTION Input Control terminal. The MOS output transistor

pair chosen for conduction is determined by the logic level applied

to the DIRECTION control; resulting in either clockwise (CW) or

counter-clockwise (CCW) shaft rotation.

When the BRAKE terminal is switched high (while holding the

ENABLE input high), the gates of both Q2 and Q4 are driven

high. Current flowing through Q2 (from the motor terminal

OUTA) at the moment of Dynamic Braking will continue to flow

then continue through diode D4 to the motor terminal OUTB.

As such, the resistance of the motor winding (and the series-

connected path) dissipates the kinetic energy stored in the

system. Reversing rotation, current flowing through Q4 (from

the motor terminal OUTB), at the moment of Dynamic Braking,

and then continue through diode D2 to the motor terminal

OUTA, to dissipate the stored kinetic energy as previously

described.

for the Control Logic, the lowest practical supply voltage for

Voltage rating.

Terminals A1, B1, A2, B2, ENA and ENB are internally

connected to protection circuits intended to guard the CMOS

gate-oxides against damage due to electrostatic discharge.

(See Figure 3) Inputs ENA, ENB, A1, B1 A2 and B2 have

CD74HCT4000 Logic Interface Protection and Level

Converters for TTL or CMOS Input Logic. These inputs are

designed to typically provide ESD protection up to 2kV.

However, these devices are sensitive to electrostatic

discharge. Proper I.C. handling procedures should be

followed.
