NOTE: As the motor supply voltage, VM, becomes higher, it also approaches the breakdown  
voltage of the OUTx pins (100 V min.); and breakdown will be more likely to happen. Even if  
one of the OUTx pins breaks down (due to surge noise or other factors), the SLA7070MS  
series will recognize it as abnormality (coil open) and will run appropriate protection  
functions. Therefore, a thorough evaluation is recommended.

NOTES:  
Take precautions to avoid noise on the VDD line; noise levels greater than 0.5 V on the VDD  
line may cause device malfunction. Noise can be reduced by separating the logic ground  
and the power ground on a PCB from the GND pin (Pin 12).  
Unused logic input pins (CW/CCW, M1, M2, M3, RESET, and SYNC) must be pulled up or  
down to VDD or ground. If those unused pins are left open, the device malfunctions.  
Unused logic output pins (MO, FLAG) must be kept open.

The Reset function is asynchronous. If an input on the RESET pin is high, the internal  
logic circuit is reset. At this point, if the REF/SLEEP1 pin stays low, outputs turn on at  
the starting point of excitation. Note that a signal on the RESET pin cannot control an  
output disable command.  
Voltage at the REF/SLEEP1 pin controls PWM current and the Sleep1 function.  
• When VREF 1.5 V (low level), the REF/SLEEP1 pin functions as the reference  
voltage input for normal operation.  
• When VREF 2.0 V (high level), the REF/SLEEP1 pin disables all outputs. This is  
the Sleep1 mode that disables the internal linear circuitry and minimizes the main  
power supply current, IBB. Although much of the internal circuitry is disabled, the  
logic circuit is still active. If a clock input signal is transmitted, the internal  
sequencer/translator circuit reacts and sets a step starting point for the next  
operation.  
The Sleep2 function operates in the same way as the Sleep1 function does, except that  
the internal logic circuit enters the Hold mode. Therefore, in the Sleep2 mode, the  
internal sequencer/translator circuit is not activated even if a step command signal  
occurs on the CLOCK input pin.  
The Sync function runs only at “2-phase excitation timing." If this function is used at  
other than the 2-phase excitation timing, an overall balance might collapse because PWM  
OFF-times and setting currents are different in each of phase A and phase B control  
scenario. (If this function is used at a point of 1-phase excitation, it does not react as the  
Sync function does. But there is no problem.) The 2-phase excitation timing is a point  
where the step reference current ratio of both phases A and B is either of Mode 8 or F.

NOTE: The Sleep2 function disables outputs and reduces the driver supply current (IBB) in  
the same way as the Sleep1 function does. However, unlike the Sleep1 function, the logic  
circuitry is put into a “standby” state in the Sleep2 function. Therefore, the  
sequencer/translator is not activated even if a step command signal occurs on the CLOCK  
input pin. When awaking from the Sleep2 mode, a delay of 100 µs or longer before sending  
a clock pulse is recommended.  
(3) Monitor Output Pins  
The SLA7070MS series provides two device status monitor outputs:  
• MO pin (microstepping products only) – Step sequence  
• FLAG pin – Protection feature operation

10.Logic Input Pins  
The low pass filter (LPF) incorporated with the logic input pins (CLOCK, RESET,  
CW/CCW, M1, M2, M3, and SYNC) improves noise rejection.  
The logic inputs are CMOS input compatible; therefore, they are in a high impedance  
state. Please use the IC at a fixed input level, either low or high.  
If there is a possibility that signals from the microcontroller are in high impedance, please  
add a pull-up/-down resistor. Since outputs from the logic input pins, which function as output  
ON/OFF controllers, may result in abnormal oscillation, leading to MOSFET breakdown as  
the worst-case scenario.

11.Logic Input Timing  
(1) Clock Signal  
a. A low-to-high transition (rising, or POS edge) or a low-to-high then high-to-low  
transition (rising and falling, or POS/NEG edge) on the CLOCK input advances the  
sequencer/translator. Clock pulse width should be set at 2 μs or longer in both positive  
and negative polarities. Therefore, clock response frequency is set to 250 kHz.  
b. Clock Edge Timing  
With regard to the input logic of the CW/CCW, M1, M2, and M3 pins, a 1 μs delay  
should occur both before and after a pulse edge, as setup and hold times (see Figure  
11-1). The sequencer logic circuitry might malfunction if the logic polarity is changed  
during these setup and hold times.

NOTE: When awaking from the Sleep1 or Sleep2 mode, a delay of 100 µs or longer before  
sending a clock pulse is recommended.  
(2) Reset Signal  
a. Reset Signal Pulse Width  
Reset pulse width is equivalent to the hold time of a high level input. It should be  
greater than 2 µs, same as the clock input pulse width.  
b. Reset Release and Clock Input Timing  
When the timing of a reset release (falling edge) and a clock edge is simultaneous, the  
internal logic might cause an unexpected operation. Therefore, a greater than 5 µs delay  
is required between the falling edge of the RESET input and the next rising edge of the  
CLOCK input (see Figure 11-1).  
(3) Logic Level Change  
Logic level inputs on CW/CCW, M1, M2, and M3 set the translator step direction  
(CW/CCW) and step mode (M1, M2, and M3; see also Table 9-2, the commutation truth  
table). Changes to those inputs do not take effect until the rising edge of the CLOCK input.  
However, depending on the type and state of a motor, there may be errors in motor  
operation such as step-out. A thorough evaluation on the changes of sequence should be  
carried out.

13.Individual Circuit Descriptions  
(1) Monolithic IC (MIC)  
• Sequencer Logic  
The single clock strategy is employed for step timing. The CW/CCW input determines  
the direction of motor rotation. The excitation mode is controlled by the combination of  
the M1, M2, and M3 input logic levels. See Section 9 for truth tables, and Section 11 for  
input timings.  
• PWM Control  
Outputs are controlled by a pair of self-excitation PWM current-control circuits with a  
fixed OFF-time. Each of built-in oscillators (OSC) sets a PWM OFF-time and a blanking  
time the PWM controls. Operation mechanism of the PWM control circuitry is identical  
to that of the SLA7070M family. For more detailed functional descriptions, see Section  
14.  
• Synchronous Control  
The SLA7070MS series has a synchronous chopping circuit to prevent noise which  
may occasionally be generated during the motor Hold state. This function can be  
operated by setting the SYNC pin to logic high, which generates a timing signal to  
simultaneously turn off the chopping of phases A and B.  
This function adopts the same operation mechanism as applied to the SLA7070M  
series. Therefore, the use of the synchronous control during normal stepping is not  
recommended because it produces less motor torque or may cause motor vibration due  
to staircase current.  
The use of the synchronous control when the motor is not in operation is allowed only  
in 2-phase excitation timing, due to the differences in currents controlled and PWM  
OFF-times between phases A and B at other excitation timings. And consequently, these  
two phases may not be synchronized or may be greatly disrupted in their control current  
values.  
• DAC (D-to-A Converter)  
DACs that determine reference voltage for the control current are provided. In  
microstep sequencing, the current at each step is set by the values of sense resistors (RS),  
reference voltage (VREF), and output voltage of the DACs, controlled by the output of the  
sequencer/translator circuit. For the step reference current ratios, see the electrical  
characteristics tables given in Section 4.  
• Regulator Circuit  
An integrated regulator circuit is used for powering the output MOSFET gate drive  
circuit (Pre-Driver) and other internal linear circuits.  
• Protection Circuit  
Built-in protection circuit against motor coil opens or shorts are provided. This  
protection is activated by sensing voltage on the internal sense resistors, RS. Therefore,  
an overcurrent condition cannot be detected which results from the OUTx pins or  
SENSEx pins, or both, shorting to the GND. The protection against motor coil opens is  
available only during PWM operation; therefore, it does not work at constant voltage  
driving, when the motor is rotating at a high speed.  
Operation of the protection circuit disables all outputs. To come out of the protection  
mode, cycle the logic supply, VDD. For more details, see the next section.  
• TSD Circuit  
A TSD circuit protects the driver by shifting an output to the Disable mode when the  
temperature of the monolithic IC (MIC) rises and becomes higher than its threshold. To  
reset, perform the same steps as described in the Protection Circuit description, above.

An actual operating waveform on the SENSEx pin when driving a motor is shown in

ITRIP  
OUT

OUT  
Immediately after PWM turns off, ringing (or spike) noise on the SENSEx pin is  
observed for a period of a few microseconds. Ringing noise can be generated by various  
causes, such as capacitance between motor coils or inappropriate motor wiring.  
Each pair of outputs is controlled by a fixed OFF-time PWM current-control circuit  
that limits the load current to a target value, ITRIP. Initially, an output is enabled and  
current flows through the motor winding and the current sense resistors. When the  
voltage across the current sense resistors equals the DAC output voltage, VTRIP, the  
current sense comparator resets PWM latch. This turns off the driver for the fixed  
OFF-time, during which the load inductance causes the current to recirculate for the  
OFF-time period. Therefore, if the ringing noise on the current sense resistor(s) equals  
and surpasses VTRIP, the PWM turns off (i.e., a hunting phenomenon).  
To prevent this phenomenon, a blanking time is set to override signals from the  
current sense comparator for a certain period immediately after the PWM turns on  
(Figure 14-2).

[2] Blanking Time and Hunting Phenomenon  
Although current control can be improved by  
shortening a blanking time, the degree of  
margin to  
a
ringing noise decreases  
simultaneously. For this reason, when a motor  
is driven by the device, a hunting phenomenon  
may occur. Figure 14-3 shows an example of the  
waveform pattern when the phenomenon  
occurs.  
ITRIP  
In order to overcome this problem, Sanken  
has released a new option, “type B”, which  
offers a longer blanking time.  
0
Having the longer blanking time, the  
optional type B can improve problems such as  
torque reduction and huge motor noise that are  
occasionally found during the hunting  
phenomenon.  
20μs/div  
[3] Blanking Time Difference  
Difference in blanking times is shown in Table 14-1.  
This comparison is based on the case where drive conditions, such as a motor, motor  
power supply voltage, REF input voltage, and circuit constant were kept the same  
while only the indicated parameters were changed.

Brief descriptions for each parameter are as follows:  
• Minimum PWM ON-time, tON(min)  
Each of the SLA7070MS series has a blanking time fixed by PWM control. Thus,  
when its ON-time is shortened in order to reduce currents across the device, it  
would not go below a predetermined blanking time. Minimum PWM ON-time  
refers to the time when an output is on during this blanking time period, that is,  
when an output MOSFET is actually turned on. In other words, a blanking time  
determines a minimum ON-time (“Small” in Table 14-1).  
• Minimum Coil Current  
This refers to a coil current when PWM control is performed during a minimum  
PWM ON-time. In other words, the device with a shorter blanking time can  
reduce more current.  
• Coil Current Waveform Distortion during High-Velocity Revolution  
While a microstep drive is active, ITRIP value changes with the CLOCK input to  
a predetermined value. The ITRIP value (internal reference voltage splitting ratio)  
is then set up to be a sine wave. Because the PWM control of motor coil current is  
set according to the ITRIP value, (the envelope of) the motor coil current will also be  
controlled to be sine wave-like.  
Sanken Electric Co., Ltd.  
25 / 38  
SLA7070MS Series Datasheet Ver.1.45  
In fact, due to the inductance characteristic of the coil, the device requires some  
time to bring the coil current completely to a targeted value (ITRIP).  
Roughly, the relationship between the convergence time (tconv), a time until the  
coil current settles to its ITRIP value, and the duty cycle (tclk) of an input clock pulse  
in any mode is  
tCONV tclk  
,
where the coil current waveform amplitude serves as a limit for ITRIP  
.
When the current attempts to increase, the full limit of tconv is determined by  
power supply voltage and the time constant of the motor coil used. While the  
current attempts to decrease, the full limit is determined by the power supply  
voltage, the damping time constant of the motor coil used, and the minimum  
ON-time.  
The duty cycle (tclk) is determined by the frequency of an input clock. It becomes  
smaller as the frequency of the input clock increases.  
When the frequency of the input clock is raised, because tclk becomes small, it is  
normal that the coil current cannot be raised to the ITRIP value within a single  
clock period. In this situation, the waveform amplitude of the coil current  
degenerates from the sine wave, referred to as “waveform distortion.”  
Figure 14-4 illustrates the comparison result of waveform distortions. Devices  
with different blanking times were compared under the operating conditions that  
power supply voltages, current preset values, motors, and so forth were kept the  
same.  
As shown in the areas circled (blanking times) in the figure below, the  
amplitude envelope of the SENSEx pin waveform in the 1.7 µs case, which is the  
same as the current waveform, has become sine wave-like whereas the waveform  
in the 3.2 µs blanking time case has degenerated from an ideal sine wave.  
The meaning of the team "Large" in Table 14-1 is as follows: if making a  
comparison under the same operating conditions, a device with a longer blanking  
time will result in less waveform distortion due to a lower clock frequency. But if  
the clock frequency is the same, waveform distortion will be larger due to a  
shorter blanking time.  
If such distortion is confirmed, there is still uncertainty over whether or not the  
motor characteristics will be affected. Therefore, thorough evaluations should be  
carried out for a final judgment.

[4] PWM OFF-time  
PWM OFF-time for the SLA7070MS series is controlled at a fixed time generated by  
the corresponding internal oscillator. It also is switched in three levels by step current  
reference ratios. (See Table 4-4 for more details.)  
In addition, the SLA7070MS series provides a function that decreases power losses  
occurring when PWM turns off. This function dissipates the back EMF stored in a motor  
coil at MOSFET turn-on, as well as at PWM turn-on (synchronous rectification  
operation).  
Figure 14-5 explains difference between two back EMF generation mechanisms.  
Whereas the older version of our product series only performs ON/OFF operations using  
a MOSFET on the PWM-ON side, the new SLA7070MS series can perform ON/OFF  
operations using a MOSFET on the PWM-OFF side.  
To prevent simultaneous switching of the output MOSFETs at the synchronous  
rectification operation, the IC has a dead time of approximately 0.5 μs. During this dead  
time, the back EMF flows through the body diodes of the MOSFETs.

(2) Protection Functions  
The SLA7070MS series includes a motor coil short protection circuit, a motor coil open  
protection circuit, and an overheat protection circuit. Detailed explanations of each  
protection circuit are provided below.  
[1] Motor Coil Short Protection (Load Short) Circuit  
This protection circuit, embedded in the SLA7070MS series, begins to operate when  
the device detects an increase in the sense resistor voltage, VRS. The threshold voltage  
of this protection circuit, VOCP, is set at approximately 0.7 V. Outputs are disabled at a  
time when this protection circuit starts, where VRS exceeds VOCP  
.

To recover the circuit after protection operates, VDD must be cycled and started up again.  
[2] Motor Coil Open Protection Circuit (Patent acquired)  
Driver destruction can occur when one output pin (motor coil) is disconnected in  
unipolar drive operation. This is because a MOSFET connected after disconnection  
will be in an avalanche breakdown state, where very high energy is added with back  
EMF when PWM is off. With the avalanche state, an output cancels the energy stored  
in the motor coil where the resisting pressure between the drain and source of the  
MOSFET is reached (i.e., the condition in which the breakdown occurred).  
Although MOSFETs with a certain amount of an avalanche energy tolerance rating  
are used in the SLA7070MS series, the avalanche energy tolerance falls as a  
temperature increases.  
Because high energy is added repeatedly whenever PWM operation disconnects the  
MOSFET, the temperature of the MOSFET rises; and when the applied energy  
exceeds the tolerance, the driver will be destroyed. Therefore, a circuit which detects  
this avalanche state and protects the driver is added in the SLA7070MS series.  
As explained above, when the motor coil is disconnected, accumulated voltage in the  
MOSFET causes a reverse current to flow during a PWM OFF-time. For this reason,  
VRS that is negative during a PWM OFF-time in normal operation becomes positive  
when the motor coil is disconnected. Thus, the disconnected motor is detectable by  
sensing that VRS in the PWM OFF-time is positive.

In order to avoid detection malfunctions, the SLA7070MS series actuates a  
dedicated protection function, the motor coil open protection circuit, when the motor  
disconnection state is detected three times continuously (see Figure 14-7).

improve and to settle the breakdown time within the load disconnection undetected  
time (topp). (Application variations also must be taken into consideration.) If no  
breakdown is found, there will be no problem in operations. Moreover, the device may  
be made to operate normally by inserting a capacitor for surge noise suppression  
between the OUTx pins and the GND pin as one of possible corrective strategies.

[3] Overheat Protection Circuit  
When a product temperature rises and exceeds Ttsd, this protection circuit starts  
operating and sets all outputs to be disabled.  
NOTE: This product series has multichip composition (one IC for control, four  
MOSFETs, and two chip resistors). Although main heat sources are the MOSFETs and  
the chip resisters, the location which actually detects temperature is the monolithic IC  
(MIC). Separated from these main heat sources, the monolithic IC cannot detect a  
rapid temperature change. Accordingly, please perform worst-case thermal  
evaluations, in which junction temperatures must not exceed a guaranteed value of  
150°C, in your application design phase.

15.Application Information  
(1) Motor Current Ratio Setting  
The motor current, IO, for the SLA7070MS series is determined by the values chosen for  
the external components, R1 and R2, and the current sense resistors, RS, in the case of the  
sample application circuit shown in Figure 8-1. The formula to calculate IO is shown below:  
R2  
Io  
VDD / Rs .  
(1)  
R1 R2  
The double-underlined term represents the reference voltage, VREF  
.
If VREF is set to less than 0.1 V, variation or impedance of wiring patterns may influence  
the IC and the possibility of less accurate current sensing becomes high.  
The standard voltage for current ITRIP that the SLA7070MS series controls is partially  
divided by internal DACs:  
VREF  
ITRIP  
(Mode Proportion).  
(2)  
RS  
(2) Lower Limit of Control Current  
The SLA7070MS series uses a self-oscillating PWM current-control topology in which  
an OFF-time is fixed. As energy stored in a motor coil is eliminated within the fixed PWM  
OFF-time, coil current flows intermittently, as shown in Figure 15-1. Thus, average  
current decreases as well as motor torque decreases. The point at which current starts  
flowing to the coil is considered as the lower limit of the control current, IO(min), where IOUT  
is a target current level.  
The lower limit of control current differs by application conditions of the motor or other  
factors, but it can be calculated from the following formula:

RS is the current sense resistor.  
Even if the control current value is set at less than its lower limit, there is no setting at  
which the IC fails to operate. However, the control current will worsen against its target  
current.

(3) Avalanche Energy  
In the unipolar topology of the SLA7070MS series, a surge voltage (ringing noise) that  
exceeds the MOSFET capacity to withstand might be applied to the IC. To prevent  
damage, the SLA7070MS series is designed with built-in MOSFETs having sufficient  
avalanche resistance to withstand this surge voltage.  
Therefore, even if surge voltages occur, users will be able to  
use the IC without any problems.  
However, in the cases in which the motor harness used is  
too long or the IC is used above its rated current or voltage,  
there is a possibility that an avalanche energy could be  
applied that exceeds Sanken design expectations. Thus,  
users must test the avalanche energy applied to the IC under  
actual application conditions.  
The following procedure can be used to check the  
avalanche energy in your application. Figures 15-2 and 15-3  
show test points and waveform characteristics resultant,  
respectively.  
Figure 15-2. Test Points  
From the waveform test result shown in Figure 15-3:  
VDS(AV) = 140 V,  
ID = 1 A, and  
t = 0.5 µs.  
The avalanche energy, EAV, then can be calculated using  
the following formula:  
EAV VDS(AV) × 1/2 × ID × t  
= 140 (V) × 1/2 × 1 (A) × 0.5 × 10-6 (μs)  
= 0.035 (mJ).

Figure 15-3. Waveform at  
Avalanche Breakdown  
By comparing the calculated EAV values with the graph  
shown in Figure 15-4, your application can be evaluated if it  
is safe for the IC by being within the avalanche  
energy-tolerated dose range of the MOFSETs.

(4) ON/OFF Sequence of Power Supply (VBB and VDD  
There is no restriction for the ON/OFF sequences of the main power supply, VBB, and  
the logic supply, VDD  
)
.
(5) Motor Supply Voltage (VM) and Main Power Supply Voltage (VBB)  
Because the SLA7070MS series has a structure that separates the monolithic IC (MIC)  
and the power MOSFETs as shown in Figure 7-1, the motor supply and the main power  
supply are electrically separated. Therefore, it is possible to drive the IC with using  
different power supplies and different voltages for the motor supply and the main power  
supply.  
(6) Internal Logic Circuits  
a. Reset for the Internal Sequencer  
The sequencer/translator circuit embedded in this product series is initialized by the  
built-in power-on reset function, which is activated at a time when the logic supply  
(VDD) is applied. Therefore, the output immediately after power-on indicates a status  
that the power circuits are in the home state.  
When the sequencer/translator must be reset after the motor has been operating, a  
signal must be input on the RESET pin. When external reset controlling is not  
necessary and the RESET pin is not used, the RESET pin must be pulled to logic low  
on an application circuit board.  
b. Clock Input  
The SLA7070MS series is designed to move one sequence increment at a time when  
a clock pulse edge is detected. And there are two different types of sequencer timings:  
positive-edge-triggered (standard type, active at  
a
rising edge) and  
double-edge-triggered (optional type W, active at a rising edge and a falling edge).  
When a CLOCK input signal stops, the present excitation state enters the motor  
Hold state. At this time, there is no difference to the IC if the CLOCK input signal is at  
low level or high level.  
c. Chopping Synchronous Circuit  
The SLA7070MS series has a chopping synchronous function to protect from  
abnormal noises that may occasionally occur during the motor Hold state. This  
function can be operated by setting the SYNC pin at high level.  
However, if this function is used during motor rotation, control current does not  
stabilize; and that may result in reduced motor torque and/or increased vibration.  
In addition, the synchronous circuit should  
be disabled in order to control the motor  
current properly even when it is used in other  
than the 2-phase excitation state (Modes 8 and  
F) or the 1-phase excitation Hold state.  
Figure 15-5. Clock Signal Shutoff

operation,  
an

microcomputer sends an input signal for  
switching. However, in applications where any  
input  
signals  
cannot  
be  
transmitted  
adequately due to a limited number of ports,  
the following method can be taken to use the  
function.  
The schematic diagram in Figure 15-5 shows  
how the IC is designed so that the SYNC signal  
can be determined by the CLOCK input signal.

Sanken Electric Co., Ltd.  
33 / 38  
SLA7070MS Series Datasheet Ver.1.45  
When the CLOCK pin receives a logic high signal, the internal capacitor, C, is  
charged, and the SYNC signal is set to logic low. However, if a clock signal cannot rise  
above a logic low level, the capacitor is discharged by the internal resistor, R, and the  
SYNC signal is set to logic high, causing the IC to shift to the synchronous mode. RC  
time constant in this circuit should be determined by the minimum clock frequency  
used.  
When using a sequence that keeps a clock input signal at logic high, an inverter  
circuit must be added.  
When a clock signal is set at an undetermined level or when using a POS/NEG edge  
product (optional type W), an edge detection circuit (Figure 15-6) can be added to  
prepare an input signal for the CLOCK pin, allowing correct processing by the circuit  
illustrated in Figure 15-5.  
d. Output Disable Circuits (Sleep1 and Sleep2)  
There are two methods to set the IC at a motor free-state (coast, with outputs  
disabled). One is to set the REF pin to more than 2 V (Sleep1). And the other is to set  
all the excitation mode setting pins (M1, M2, and M3) to high (Sleep2). In either way,  
the IC is put into the Sleep mode, which stops the main power supply and reduces  
circuit current.  
Difference between the two methods is that the Sleep1 keeps the internal sequencer  
enabled, whereas the Sleep2 puts the internal sequencer into the Hold state. In short,  
in the Sleep2 mode, the excitation sequence still remains in the Sleep state even when  
a signal is input on the CLOCK pin.  
When awaking to normal operation mode (motor rotation) from the Disable (Sleep1  
or Sleep2) mode, set an appropriate delay time, a time period from cancellation of the  
Disable mode to an initial CLOCK input edge. In doing so, consider not only a rise  
time for the IC, but also a rise time for the motor excitation current, which is  
important (Figure 15-7).

Cancellation and the Next Clock Input

M1, M2, and M3  
Clock Signal  
NOTE: In applications where POS/NEG edge (optional type W) products are used, the  
initial CLOCK signal after the Disable mode cancellation can be a high-to-low  
transition.  
e. REF/SLEEP1 Pin  
The REF pin provides access to the following functions:  
[1] Reference voltage setting for output current level setting:  
Low level (VREF 0.4 to 0.45 V, depends on rated currents)  
[2] Output Enable-Disable control input:  
High level (VREF 2.0 V)  
These functions are further described in Section 9, and in the discussion of output  
disabling, above. Moreover, the threshold voltage to switch the output enable-disable  
signals is set at approximately 1.75 V.  
Sanken Electric Co., Ltd.  
34 / 38  
SLA7070MS Series Datasheet Ver.1.45  
To control the REF voltage, please pay attention to the following points:  
Range A Control current value also varies in accordance with VREF, not only  
within the range specified in [1], but also within the range from [1] to the  
threshold voltage (typically 1.75 V). Therefore, power dissipation in the IC and the  
sense resistors must be given extra consideration. OCP operation may start  
depending on the reference voltage splitting ratio.  
Range B – In this range, the voltage that switches output enable and disable  
exists. At enable, the same cautions apply as in Range A. In addition, for some  
cases, there are possibilities that an output status will become unstable as a  
result of iterations between enable and disable states.  
f. Logic Input Pins (CLOCK, RESET, CW/CCW, M1, M2, M3, and SYNC)  
When a logic input pin (CLOCK, RESET, CW/CCW, M1, M2, M3, or SYNC) is not  
used, the pin must be tied to VDD or GND.  
Please do not leave any of these pins floating, because there is possibility of undefined  
effects on IC performance when they are left open.  
g. Monitor Output Pins (MO and FLAG)  
MO and FLAG pins are designed as monitor outputs. Moreover, the IC consists of an  
inverter output configuration, as can be seen in Figure 15-8. Therefore, let these pins  
open when they are not used.

16.Thermal Design Information  
It is not practical to calculate the power dissipation of the SLA7070MS series accurately,  
because that would require factors that are variable during operation, such as time periods  
and excitation modes during motor rotation, input frequencies and sequences, and so forth.  
Given this situation, it is preferable to perform approximate calculations at worst  
conditions. The following is a simplified formula for calculation of power dissipation using  
extracted minimum necessary parameters:  
P I2 (RDS(on)Rs) 2,  
where:  
P is the power dissipation in the IC,  
I is the operation current (IO),  
RDS(on) is the on-resistance of the output MOSFET, and  
Rs is the current sense resistance.  
Based on the power dissipation in the IC calculated using the above formula, the expected  
increase in operating junction temperature, ΔTJ, of the IC can be estimated using Figure 16-1.  
This result must be added to the worst-case ambient temperature when operating, TA(max)  
.
Based on the calculation, there is no problem unless TA(max) + ΔTJ > 150°C. However, final  
confirmation must be made by measuring the IC temperature during operation and then  
verifying power dissipation and junction temperature in the corresponding graph of Figure  
16-1.

When the IC is used with a heat sink mounted, product package thermal resistance, θJ-A, is  
a variable used in calculating ΔTJ-A. The value of θJ-A is calculated from the following  
formula:  
θJ-A ≈ θJ-C + θFIN = J-A θC-A) + θFIN  
,
where θFIN is the thermal resistance of the heat sink. Then, ΔTJ-A can be calculated with  
using the value of θJ-A  
.
Sanken Electric Co., Ltd.  
36 / 38  
SLA7070MS Series Datasheet Ver.1.45  
The following procedure should be used to measure product temperature and to estimate  
junction temperature in actual operation.  
First, measure a temperature rise in the center of backside of mold resin used for the  
device (ΔTC-A).  
Second, estimate power dissipation (P) and junction temperature (TJ) from the  
temperature rise with reference to Figure 16-1, the Temperature Increase graph. At this  
point, the device temperature rise (ΔTC-A) and the junction temperature rise (TJ) become  
almost equivalent in the following formula:  
ΔTJ ≈ ΔTC-A + P × θJ-C .  
CAUTION  
The SLA7070MS series is designed as a multichip, consisting of four separate power  
elements (MOSFETs), one monolithic IC (MIC), and two sense resistors. Moreover, because  
the monolithic IC cannot accurately detect the temperature of the built-in power elements,  
which are the primary sources of heat, the SLA7070MS series does not provide a protection  
function against overheating. For thermal protection, users must conduct sufficient thermal  
evaluations to ensure that the junction temperature of the IC does not exceed a guaranteed  
level of 150°C.  
This thermal design information is provided for preliminary design estimations only.  
Before operating the IC in an actual application, users must experimentally determine its  
actual thermal performance (the case temperature of Pin 12). The maximum recommended  
case temperatures (Pin 12) for the IC are:  
With no external heat sink connection: 90°C  
With external heat sink connection:  
80°C
