ST1298 1.55A Single-Phase Full-Wave BLDC Motor Driver

ST1298 1.55A Single-Phase Full-Wave BLDC Motor Driver

ST1298

The ST1298 is a single-coil brushless DC motor driver IC operating from a wide 3V to 18V supply, delivering 0~1.55A output current (1.55A peak) through a single-phase full-wave output stage with a highly efficient direct PWM control method (5~100kHz input). The device integrates an adjustable minimum-speed limit (ST1298R) or minimum stop-PWM setting (ST1298S), adjustable speed-slope control, soft start and a noise-control mode, together with built-in over-temperature protection (TSD 170℃), over-current protection (internal 1.55A limit) and lock protection with automatic restart. A built-in Hall bias and FG speed-feedback output simplify system design. Housed in a TSSOP14-EP (5mm×4.4mm) package with an exposed thermal pad, the ST1298 targets automotive infotainment, HUD projector adjustment, electric shift knobs and on-board chargers.

Overview

The ST1298 is a single-coil brushless DC motor driver IC operating from a wide 3V to 18V supply, delivering 0~1.55A output current (1.55A peak) through a single-phase full-wave output stage with a highly efficient direct PWM control method. The device integrates an adjustable minimum-speed limit (ST1298R) or minimum stop-PWM setting (ST1298S), adjustable speed-slope control, soft start and a noise-control mode that achieves low-noise, low-vibration BLDC motor operation. Soft start suppresses high peak starting current and provides reliable start-up even at low rotation speeds. Built-in over-temperature protection (150~180℃, 30℃ hysteresis), over-current protection (internal 1.55A limit) and lock protection with automatic restart ensure robust operation, while a built-in Hall bias and FG speed-feedback output simplify system design. Housed in a TSSOP14-EP (5mm×4.4mm) package with an exposed thermal pad, the ST1298 provides a compact motor drive solution for automotive infotainment, HUD projector adjustment, electric shift knobs and on-board chargers.
