INH — Inhibit
A HIGH level on the INH input,turns off all
phase outputs to reduce current
consumption.
Reset
An internal Power-On Reset circuit
connected to V
resets the phase logic
and inhibits the outputs during power up,
to prevent false stepping.
Output Stages
The output stage consists of four open-
collector transistors. The second high-
voltage supply contains Darlington
transistors.
Phase Outputs
The phase outputs are connected directly
to the motor as shown in figure 14.
Bilevel Technique
The bilevel pulse generator consists of
two monostables with a common RC
network.
The internal phase logic generates a
trigger pulse every time the phase
changes state. The pulse triggers its own
monostable which turns on the output
transistors for a precise period of time:
t

= 0.55 C

See pulse diagrams, figures 16 through
20.
Bipolar Phase Logic Output
The
and
outputs are generated
from the phase logic and inform an
external device if the A phase or the B
phase current is internally inhibited.
These outputs are intended to support if it
is legal to correctly go from a half-step
mode to a full-step mode without loosing
positional information.
The PBD 3517/1 can act as a controller
IC for 2 driver ICs, the PBL 3770A. Use
P

and
B
for I

control of current turn-off.
Applications Information
Logic inputs
If any of the logic inputs are left open, the
circuit will treat it as a high-level input.
Unused inputs should be connected to
proper voltage levels in order to get the
highest noise immunity.
