The A6812SLW is a bipolar stepper motor driver manufactured by Allegro MicroSystems. It integrates a 1:20 step/direction decoder, allowing control via simple direction and step inputs. The device features a dual H-bridge output configuration capable of driving bipolar stepper motors with peak currents up to 40mA per phase. It operates within a supply voltage range of 3V to 5.5V and supports an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The component is housed in a 28-pin PLCC package.
Verify the specific suffix (e.g., SLW) against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm package type and tape/reel specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status as historical data may vary. Ensure the intended application voltage aligns with the 3V to 5.5V operational range. Check for end-of-life notices or obsolescence warnings before finalizing procurement plans.
Select this component when a compact solution for low-current bipolar stepper motors is required. The integrated decoder reduces firmware complexity by handling step division internally. Consider the 28-PLCC package constraints for PCB layout. Verify that the 40mA output current meets the motor coil requirements without external heat sinking.
This part belongs to Allegro's family of stepper motor drivers designed for cost-sensitive and space-constrained applications. It provides a complete drive solution including logic, decoding, and power stages in a single IC, reducing bill of materials count compared to discrete solutions.
Publicly documented substitutes include MAX6921AQI+ and MAX6921AQI+T from Analog Devices/Maxim Integrated. These are listed as similar replacements but require verification of pin compatibility and electrical characteristics.
