Features anD BeneFits
The A4919 is a three-phase controller for use with N-channel
external power MOSFETs.
A unique charge pump regulator provides full (>10 V) gate drive
at power supply voltages down to 7 V and allows the A4919
to operate with reduced gate drive at power supply voltages
down to 5.5 V. A bootstrap capacitor is used to provide the
above power supply voltage required for N-channel MOSFETs.
One logic-level input is provided for each of the six power
MOSFETs in the 3-phase bridge, allowing motors to be driven
with any commutation scheme defined by an external controller.
The power MOSFETs are protected from cross-conduction by
integrated crossover control.
Motor phase short-to-supply and short-to-ground detection
is provided by independent drain-source voltage monitors on
each MOSFET. Short faults, supply undervoltage, and chip
overtemperature conditions are indicated by a single open-
drain fault output.
Product variants incorporating a low dropout (LDO) regulator to
source either 5.0 V or 3.3 V to external circuitry are available.
The A4919 is supplied in a 28-pin TSSOP power package with
exposed thermal pad (package type LP) and a 28-terminal
5 mm × 5 mm × 0.90 mm QFN package with exposed thermal
pad. Both packages are lead (Pb) free, with 100% matte-tin
leadframe plating (suffix T).
