Circuit description

Logic inputs

Pins IN1A, IN2A, IN1B and IN2B are TTL/CMOS and µC compatible logic inputs. The internal

structure is shown in Figure 6. Typical values for turn-on and turn-off thresholds are

respectively Vth(ON) = 1.8 V and Vth(OFF) = 1.3 V.

Pins ENA and ENB have identical input structures with the exception that the drains of the

overcurrent and thermal protection MOSFETs (one for bridge A and one for bridge B) are

also connected to these pins. Due to these connections, some care must be taken in driving

these pins. Two configurations are shown in Figure 7 and 8. If driven by an open drain

(collector) structure, a pull-up resistor REN and a capacitor CEN are connected, as shown in

Figure 7. If the driver is a standard push-pull structure, the resistor REN and the capacitor

CEN are connected, as shown in Figure 8. The resistor REN should be chosen in the range

from 2.2 k

 to 180 k. Recommended values for REN and CEN are respectively 100 k and

5.6 nF. More information on selecting the values is found in Section 5.5.
