Toshiba today announced the launch of “TB67H400A”, a 2-channel motor driver IC for brush motors.



With this release, Toshiba brings enhancements where they were needed. In fact this 2-channel motor driver IC for brush motors, supports high voltages and currents.
Connectikpeople has observed that, the latest high voltage analog process used for “TB67H400A”, realizes a 50V maximum rating
and low on resistance of 0.5Ω (maximum, sum of the upper and lower side) during motor drive output, supporting maximum output current of 4.0A per channel for a 2-channel drive.
Connectikpeople may also recorded that, Toshiba’s original parallel channel control function (large mode) aims to offer 8.0A maximum output current when 2-channel parallel outputs are used as a 1-channel driver.
Pending the mass production in October 2013, the driver IC is available in a 4 package line-up that supports various customer requirements:
·        equipment downsizing with a small package,
·         Continuous operation at high current with a high-power dissipation package.
Regarding the key features of the new products, Connectikpeople has nabbed:
1. High current drive: Reduction of maximum on resistance to 0.5
Ω (sum of the upper and lower side) realizes 4.0A per channel as maximum output current (4.0A x 2 channels). Large mode supports 8.0A maximum output current (8.0A x 1 channel).
2. Package line-ups: Heat dissipating ZIP package improves allowable power dissipation, supporting applications that require continuous motor drive at high current.
Small QFN and HTSSOP package contributes to downsizing of equipment and reduction of material costs.
HSOP package enables flow soldering on a paper phenolic board whose demand is increasing for the reduction of PCB cost.
3. Integrated abnormality detection functions : The ICs integrate a thermal shutdown circuit, overcurrent shutdown circuit, and undervoltage lockout circuit, contributing to highly reliable applications.
And finally, applications include:
Home appliances: sewing machines, ATMs, banknote recognition equipment, amusement machines and office automation equipment
