DESCRIPTION

The L297 Stepper Motor Controller IC generates four phase drive signals for two phase bipolar and four phase unipolar step motors in microcomputer- controlled applications. The motor can be driven in half step, normal and wawe drive modes and on- chip PWM chopper circuits permit switch-mode control of the current in the windings. A feature of December 2001 Symbol Parameter Value Unit Vs Supply voltage 10 V Vi Input signals 7V Ptot Total power dissipation (Tamb = 70°C) 1W Tstg, Tj Storage and junction temperature -40 to + 150 °C ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS this device is that it requires only clock, direction and mode input signals. Since the phase are gen- erated internally the burden on the microprocessor, and the programmer, is greatly reduced. Mounted in DIP20 and SO20 packages, the L297 can be used with monolithic bridge drives such as the L298N or L293E, or with discrete transistors and darlingtons.

N ° NAME FUNCTION 1 SYNC Output of the on-chip chopper oscillator. The SYNC connections The SYNC connections of all L297s to be synchronized are connected together and the oscillator components are omitted on all but one. If an external clock source is used it is injected at this terminal. 2 GND Ground connection.

3 HOME Open collector output that indicates when the L297 is in its initial

state (ABCD = 0101). The transistor is open when this signal is active. 4 A Motor phase A drive signal for power stage. INH1 Active low inhibit control for driver stage of A and B phases. When a bipolar bridge is used this signal can be used to ensure fast decay of load current when a winding is de-energized. Also used by chopper to regulate load current if CONTROL input is low. 6 B Motor phase B drive signal for power stage. 7 C Motor phase C drive signal for power stage. INH2 Active low inhibit control for drive stages of C and D phases. Same functions as INH1. 9 D Motor phase D drive signal for power stage. 10 ENABLE Chip enable input. When low (inactive) INH1, INH2, A, B, C and D are brought low. 11 CONTROL Control input that defines action of chopper. When low chopper acts on INH1 and INH2; when high chopper acts on phase lines ABCD. 12 V s 5V supply input.

16 OSC

An RC network (R to VCC , C to ground) connected to this terminal determines the chopper rate. This terminal is connected to ground on all but one device in synchronized multi - L297 configurations. f ≅ 1/0.69 RC 17 CW/ CCW Clockwise/counterclockwise direction control input. Physical direction of motor rotation also depends on connection of windings. Synchronized internally therefore direction can be changed at any time. CLOCK Step clock. An active low pulse on this input advances the motor one increment. The step occurs on the rising edge of this signal. PIN FUNCTIONS - L297/1 - L297D L297

N ° NAME FUNCTION 19 HALF/ FULL Half/full step select input. When high selects half step operation, when low selects full step operation. One-phase-on full step mode is obtained by selecting FULL when the L297’s translator is at an even-numbered state. T wo-phase-on full step mode is set by selecting FULL when the translator is at an odd numbered position. (The home position is designate state 1). RESET Reset input. An active low pulse on this input restores the translator to the home position (state 1, ABCD = 0101). PIN FUNCTIONS - L297/1 - L297D (continued) CIRCUIT OPERATION The L297 is intended for use with a dual bridge driver, quad darlington array or discrete power devices in step motor driving applications. It re- ceives step clock, direction and mode signals from the systems controller (usually a microcomputer chip) and generates control signals for the power stage. The principal functions are a translator, which gen- erates the motor phase sequences, and a dual PWM chopper circuit which regulates the current in the motor windings. The translator generates three different sequences, selected by the HALF/FULL input. These are normal (two phases energised), wave drive (one phase energised) and half-step (alternately one phase energised/two phases en- ergised). Two inhibit signals are also generated by the L297 in half step and wave drive modes. These signals, which connect directly to the L298’s enable inputs, are intended to speed current decay when a winding is de-energised. When the L297 is used to drive a unipolar motor the chopper acts on these lines. An input called CONTROL determines whether the chopper will act on the phase lines ABCD or the inhibit lines INH1 and INH2. When the phase lines are chopped the non-active phase line of each pair (AB or CD) is activated (rather than interrupting the line then active). In L297 + L298 configurations this technique reduces dissipation in the load current sense resistors. A common on-chip oscillator drives the dual chop- per. It supplies pulses at the chopper rate which set the two flip-flops FF1 and FF2. When the current in a winding reaches the programmed peak value the voltage across the sense resistor (connected to one of the sense inputs SENS 1 or SENS2) equals Vref and the corresponding comparator resets its flip flop, interrupting the drive current until the next oscillator pulse arrives. The peak current for both windings is programmed by a voltage divider on the V ref input. Ground noise problems in multiple configurations can be avoided by synchronising the chopper os- cillators. This is done by connecting all the SYNC pins together, mounting the oscillator RC network on one device only and grounding the OSC pin on all other devices.

MOTOR DRIVING PHASE SEQUENCES The L297’s translator generates phase sequences for normal drive, wave drive and half step modes. The state sequences and output waveforms for these three modes are shown below. In all cases the translator advances on the low to high transis- tion of CLOCK. Clockwise rotation is indicate; for anticlockwise ro- tation the sequences are simply reversed RESET restores the translator to state 1, where ABCD = 0101. HALF STEP MODE Half step mode is selected by a high level on the HALF/FULL input. NORMAL DRIVE MODE Normal drive mode (also called "two-phase-on" drive) is selected by a low level on the HALF/ FULL input when the translator is at an odd numbered state (1, 3, 5 or 7). In this mode the INH1 and INH2 outputs remain high throughout. L297

MOTOR DRIVING PHASE SEQUENCES (continued) WAVE DRIVE MODE Wave drive mode (also called "one-phase-on" drive) is selected by a low level on the HALF/FULL input when the translator is at an even numbered state (2, 4, 6 or 8).
