LB1830M-E

Overview

The LB1830M-E is a low-voltage bipolar motor driver manufactured by onsemi, formerly Sanyo. It integrates full control and power stages for driving DC brushed motors within a 10-LSOP surface-mount package. The device operates on a supply voltage range of 3V to 9V, supporting a maximum output current of 500mA per channel. It features two half-bridge outputs configured for parallel operation, enabling efficient drive capabilities for small motor applications with an operating temperature range of -20°C to 80°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates complete control logic and power output stages in a single chip
• Supports bipolar drive configurations for DC brushed motors
• Operates at low supply voltages ranging from 3V to 9V
• Designed for surface-mount installation in compact electronic systems

Applications

• General purpose DC motor control circuits
• Small appliance motor drivers
• Low-power motion control modules
• Automotive accessory motor drives

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation carefully, as this component was originally produced by Sanyo Denki and later transferred to onsemi. Confirm the specific suffix 'E' indicates environmental compliance status according to official datasheets. Check current availability status, as older Sanyo-branded parts may be discontinued or replaced by onsemi equivalents. Ensure the 10-LSOP package footprint matches your PCB design requirements before ordering.

Selection Notes

Select this driver when a compact solution for low-voltage DC motor control is required. It is suitable for applications needing integrated protection and control without external discrete components. Consider the 500mA output limit and 3V-9V input range against your motor specifications. The surface-mount package is ideal for space-constrained designs requiring high integration density.

Part Context

This part belongs to the LB1830 series of low-voltage motor drivers. Originally developed by Sanyo, the product line was acquired by onsemi. The LB1830M-E variant specifically denotes the lead-free, environmentally compliant version in the 10-pin LSOP package. It serves as a bridge between legacy Sanyo products and modern onsemi inventory.

Replacement Considerations

Check for onsemi equivalents such as LB1830M-TLM-E if sourcing from current distributors. Verify pin compatibility and thermal characteristics when substituting. Ensure the replacement maintains the same voltage and current ratings for your specific application.
