NXP Semiconductors Controllori dei motori passo-passo bus I2C Fm+ PCA9629

I controllori dei motori passo-passo bus I²C NXP PCA9629 Fm+ sono dispositivi CMOS a bassa potenza controllati da bus I²C che forniscono tutta la logica e il controllo richiesti per azionare i motori passo-passo a quattro fasi. Il PCA9629 è destinato all'utilizzo con driver esterni di corrente elevata per azionare le bobine del motore. Sono supportati tre formati di azionamento del motore passo-passo: monofase (wave drive), bifase e a mezzo passo. Inoltre, quando usati come ingressi, quattro ingressi/uscite per uso generico (GPIO) consentono il rilevamento dell'uscita del livello logico dai moduli di interruzione logica e generano un segnale di interruzione BASSO attivo sul pin INT di PCA9629. Questa è una funzione utile nel rilevamento della posizione iniziale dell'albero motore o del riferimento per gli impulsi di passo. All'interruzione il PCA9629 può essere programmato per fermare automaticamente il motore o invertirne il senso di rotazione.

Output wave train is programmable using control registers. The control registers are programmed via the I²C-bus. Features built into the PCA9629A provide highly flexible control of stepper motor, off-load bus master/micro and significantly reduce I²C-bus traffic. These include control of step size, number of steps per single command, number of actions from 1 to 255 or continuous rotations and direction of rotation. Re-start motor for new speed and operation without waiting for motor stop. A ramp-up on start and/or ramp-down on stop is also provided with re-enable ramp-up or ramp-down to change the ramp rate curve on the fly.

The PCA9629A is available in a 16-pin TSSOP package and is specified over the ‑40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range.
