L297 4.75V~7V Parallel DIP-20 Motor Driver IC

L297 Motor Driver IC 4.75V-7V DIP-20 Parallel for Stepper Motors

The L297 Stepper Motor Controller IC generates four-phase drive signals for two-phase bipolar and four-phase unipolar step motors in microcontroller-controlled applications. The motor can be driven in half step, normal and wave-drive modes and on-chip PWM chopper circuits permit switch-mode control of the current in the windings. A feature of this device is that it requires only clock, direction, and mode input signals. Since the phase are generated internally the burden on the microprocessor, and the programmer, is greatly reduced. Mounted in the DIP20 package, the L297 can be used with monolithic bridge drives such as the L298N or L293E, or with discrete transistors and Darlingtons.

Features:

• Wide Voltage Range: Operates from 4.75V to 7V, suitable for a variety of stepper motor applications.
