SPI-7215M

Overview

The SPI-7215M is a bipolar driver IC designed for two-phase stepping motors. It supports a maximum motor supply voltage of 36V and can handle a peak motor current of ±1.5A. The component utilizes an NMOS output configuration housed in a 16-HSOP package with an exposed pad. It is compliant with RoHS standards and features a compact surface-mount design suitable for industrial automation applications.

Feature Summary

• Bipolar drive architecture for two-phase stepper motors
• Integrated NMOS output stage
• RoHS compliant construction

Applications

• Industrial automation systems
• Process automation equipment
• High-power module integration

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation as Sanken Electric USA Inc. or Sanken Electric Co., Ltd. Confirm the package type is 16-HSOP. Ensure the part number matches SPI-7215M exactly to distinguish from similar models like SPI-7210M which have different current ratings. Check for RoHS compliance documentation.

Selection Notes

Select this component when driving two-phase bipolar stepper motors requiring up to 36V and 1.5A per phase. Compare against SPI-7210M if lower current (±1.0A) is sufficient. Ensure the application requires a bipolar driver topology and surface-mount HSOP packaging.

Part Context

This part belongs to the SPI-72xx series of stepper motor drivers from Sanken Electric. It is functionally related to the SPI-7210M but offers higher current capacity. The series targets compact motor control solutions for industrial environments.

Replacement Considerations

SPI-7210M is a documented alternative within the same family, though it supports only ±1.0A current compared to the SPI-7215M's ±1.5A rating.
