Toshiba unveils low power, high resolution micro-stepping motor driver IC



KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 6 -- With the launch of ‘TC78H670FTG’, Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (Toshiba) has added the latest line-up to its micro-stepping motor driver ICs.
According to a statement by Toshiba, the new IC has a maximum rating of 18V/2.0A and can drive motors with a wide range of operating voltages. 
The new IC, whose mass production starts today, can drive a 128 micro-stepping motor with a power supply ranging from 2.5V to 16V.
Its wide range of applications includes USB-powered, battery-powered and standard 9-12V system devices. It can also be used with a 1.8V interface, allowing connection to various hosts and microcontrollers.
The IC is housed in a compact QFN16 package and eliminates use of a current sense resistor by incorporating a current detection part that contributes to lower cost, smaller component footprint and PCB routing space savings.
The device can be used for applications including cameras, security cameras, portable printers, handheld scanners, pico-projectors and smartphones.
