A3977 Datasheet Microstepping DMOS Driver

Manufacturer: Allegro MicroSystems

General Description

The A3977 is a complete microstepping motor driver with built-in translator.

It is designed to operate bipolar stepper motors in full-, half-, quarter-, and eighth-step modes, with output drive capability of 35 V and ±2.5 A.

The A3977 includes a fixed off-time current regulator that has the ability to operate in slow-, fast-, or mixed-decay modes.
