CA3275
Dual Full Bridge Driver
Description
The CA3275 Dual Full Bridge Driver is intended for general-
purpose applications requiring Dual Full Bridge drive or
switching, including direction and pulse-width modulation for
position control. While all features of the IC may not be uti-
lized or required, they would normally be used in instrumen-
tation systems with quadrature coils, such as air-core
gauges, where the coils would be driven at frequencies rang-
ing from 200Hz to 400Hz. The coils are wrapped at 90
o
angles for independent direction control. Coils wound in this
physical configuration are controlled by pulse width modula-
tion, where each coil drive is a function of the sine or cosine
versus degrees of movement. The direction control is used
to change the direction of the current in the H-Driver coil.
The switch rate capability of the IC is typically 30kHz regard-
less of the inductive load. Over-current limiting is used to
limit short circuit current. Over-voltage protection (in the
range of 18V to 24V) causes the device to shut down the
output current drive. Thermal shutdown limits power dissipa-
tion on the chip. The CA3275 is supplied in a 14 lead dual-in-
line plastic package.
