Points for Control that Includes Current of 0%
In modes other than 2-Phase Excitation mode (from 1-2 Phase Excitation mode to 4W1-2 Phase Excitation mode),
when the current is controlled to 0%, the TB62201AFG’s output transistors are all turned off.
At the time, the coil's energy returns to the power supply through the parasitic diodes. If the same current is
applied several times and is within the rated current, then : the power consumed by the on-resistance when current
flows to the output MOS will be less than the power consumed when current is applied to the parasitic diodes.
Therefore, when controlling the current, rather than setting 0%, set the current to the next step beyond 0% (the
minimum step in the reverse direction) for better power dissipation results.
However, if the 0% (actually 10%) current cycle is long, the power dissipation may be greater than in Off mode
because of the need for constant-current control.
Therefore, Toshiba recommend setting the current according to the actual operating pattern. (1-2 Phase Excitation
mode is the most effective.)

The coil’s energy returns through
the MOS, which is turned on.
Then the coil is charged to a level
of 10%.
The power dissipation is smaller
than when the energy is returned
via the parasitic diode.
(However, the longer the
±
10%
rated current control time, the
longer the period of current
dissipation.)
