A3909GLYTR-T Dual Full-Bridge Motor Driver, General Purpose, Stepper Motors DMOS
The A3909GLYTR-T is a high-performance dual full-bridge motor driver from Allegro MicroSystems, designed for precision bidirectional DC motor control in automotive, industrial, and consumer applications. This versatile driver operates from a 4.5V to 36V supply range, supporting both 12V and 24V systems while delivering continuous output currents up to 1.5A per bridge (3A peak). The device integrates two independent H-bridges, enabling simultaneous control of two DC motors or a single bipolar stepper motor, making it ideal for applications requiring multi-axis motion control such as camera gimbals, robotic actuators, and automotive mirror adjustment systems.
Engineered for robust operation in harsh environments, the A3909GLYTR-T features low RDS(on) MOSFET outputs (0.8Ω typical) to minimize power dissipation and improve thermal performance. Its PWM current control with internal fixed-frequency oscillator (300kHz typical) ensures smooth motor operation while reducing audible noise in sensitive applications. The driver incorporates comprehensive protection circuitry including thermal shutdown, cross-conduction prevention, and undervoltage lockout (UVLO), safeguarding both the IC and connected motors under fault conditions. Packaged in a 20-pin TSSOP with exposed thermal pad, the device achieves optimal heat dissipation in space-constrained designs.
