BD6964F-GE2

Overview

The BD6964F-GE2 is a fan motor driver manufactured by ROHM Semiconductor, designed for brushless DC (BLDC) and bipolar motor applications. It integrates power MOSFET technology to deliver an output current of 1 A with a supply voltage range of 3.3 V to 14 V. The device operates at a frequency of 50 kHz and supports PWM interface control. It features a wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +105°C and dissipates up to 780 mW of power. Packaged in an 8-pin SOP format for surface mount installation, this component is classified under PMIC Motor Drivers.

Feature Summary

• Integrates power MOSFETs for efficient bipolar motor driving
• Supports PWM interface for precise speed and direction control
• Designed specifically for fan motor and BLDC applications

Applications

• Brushless DC (BLDC) fan motors
• Bipolar motor control systems
• General-purpose fan motor drivers

Procurement Notes

Verify the lifecycle status carefully, as the BD6964F-GE2 is marked as NRND (Not Recommended for New Designs). Confirm availability through authorized distributors, as stock levels may be limited or discontinued. Ensure the SOP-8 package and 3.3V–14V supply requirements align with your existing design constraints before finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dedicated fan motor driver with integrated MOSFETs is required. It is suitable for designs needing 1 A output current and PWM control within a 3.3 V to 14 V supply range. Consider the SOP-8 package size and -40°C to +105°C operating temperature range for environmental compatibility. Note that due to its NRND status, alternative future-proof solutions should be evaluated for new projects.

Part Context

This part belongs to ROHM Semiconductor's Fan / Motor Controllers / Drivers product line, categorized under PMIC. It serves as a specialized driver for small to medium-sized fans, utilizing internal power MOSFETs to simplify circuit design. The SOP-8 packaging allows for compact surface-mount integration in consumer electronics and industrial cooling systems requiring reliable motor control.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Due to the NRND status, consult ROHM Semiconductor directly for recommended next-generation replacements or equivalent components with similar electrical characteristics and pin configurations.
