MAX14874ETC+T

Overview

The MAX14874ETC+T is a dual half-bridge motor driver manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It utilizes Bi-CMOS technology and supports brushed DC motors with a parallel interface. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 36V, delivering an output current of 3A per channel. It is housed in a 12-TDFN (3x3) package with an exposed pad for thermal management. The component functions as a dedicated driver suitable for general-purpose applications.

Feature Summary

• Dual half-bridge output configuration for independent motor control
• Bi-CMOS technology integration for robust performance
• Parallel interface compatibility for straightforward system integration

Applications

• Brushed DC motor driving
• General-purpose motion control systems
• Embedded actuator applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'TG104' or standard tape-and-reel packaging against the manufacturer's official documentation to ensure correct ordering. Confirm that the 12-TDFN footprint matches the target PCB design requirements. Check for any regional distribution restrictions or limited availability status directly from authorized suppliers before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual half-bridge topology is required for controlling two separate brushed DC motors or a single bipolar stepper motor. Ensure the system power supply accommodates the 4.5V to 36V operating range. Verify that the 3A output current capability meets the load requirements and that the thermal dissipation characteristics of the TDFN package are sufficient for the intended duty cycle.
