Both H-Bridges are capable of continuous output currents of up to +/- 500 mA and operating voltages to 27V. Free wheeling, substrate isolated diodes are included for output transient suppression when switching motors or other inductive loads. For each bridge the PHASE input controls load current polarity by selecting the appropriate source and sink driver pair. The ENABLE input, when held high, enables the respective output H-bridge. When both ENABLE pins are held low the device will enter SLEEP mode and consume less than 100A. 1 5 n/c FAULT1 11 1 4 FAULT2 OUT1B 12 1 3 OUT2B ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS at TA = +25C Operating Supply Voltage, VBB .................... 27 V Non-Operating Supply Voltage .................... 35 V Output Current, IOUT ............................500 mA* Logic Supply Voltage, VCC .......................... 7.0 V Fault Output Voltage ................................... 7.0 V Logic Input Voltage Range, VIN ......................... -0.3 V to VCC + 0.3 V Package Power Dissipation (TA = +25C), PD A3976KLB.................................. 2.2 W Operating Temperature Range, TA .............................. -40C to +125C Junction Temperature, TJ ......................... +150C Storage Temperature Range, TS .............................. -55C to +150C * Output current rating may be limited by duty cycle, ambient temperature, and heat sinking. Under any set of conditions, do not exceed the specified current rating or a junction temperature of 150C. The A3976 is protected to ensure safe operation in harsh operating environments and was designed specifically for automotive applications. Protection circuitry will check for open or shorted load, motor lead short to ground or supply, VBB overvoltage, VCC undervoltage, and thermal shutdown. If any of these conditions are detected the outputs will be disabled and fault information will be output to diagnostic pins FAULT1 and FAULT2. The A3976 is supplied in a 24-lead plastic SOIC with a copper batwing tab (suffix `LB').

During normal PWM operation, diagnostic circuitry will look for a minimum source current level after a bridge is signalled on. Additionally, the diode flyback is monitored on the proper output. The logic will signal a fault and disable the outputs if it determines that the current is below the minimum level AND no flyback is occurring. If the inductive load is too large, the current would take too long to reach the minimal level and a false open load would be reported. It is recommended that the inductive load be less than 38 mH. Short Circuit Protection. Internal sense resistors in series with VBB and ground will trip the fault circuitry if greater than 1.1 A is detected. To prevent false overcurrent events due to reverse recovery spikes of the clamp diodes, the current monitor is blanked for 5s after a high side is signalled to turn on. If an additional input command follows after the initial fault, the selected pair of drivers will pulse on for the 5s blanking duration. The short circuit fault will remember the input state where the fault occurred and will wait for that particular logic state after the short has been removed before normal operation is allowed to resume. Thermal Protection. Circuitry turns OFF all drivers when the junction temperature reaches 170C typically. It is intended only to protect the device from failures due to excessive junction temperatures and has a hysteresis of approximately 15C. Layout. The printed wiring board should use a heavy ground plane. For optimum electrical and thermal performance, the driver should be soldered directly onto the board. The load supply terminal, VBB, should be decoupled with an electrolytic capacitor (> 47 F is recommended) placed as close to the device as possible.
