Notas de diseño
The L9977 in PowerSO-36 package can dissipate significant heat when driving 5.5A continuously. Ensure adequate copper area on the PCB, especially around the exposed pad, to keep the junction temperature below 150°C. Use thermal vias to connect the pad to inner ground planes. For continuous operation at high currents, consider forced air cooling or a heatsink.
Place the L9977 close to the motor connectors to minimize trace inductance. Use wide traces for the motor supply and output pins to handle high currents. Decouple the VS pin with a 100nF ceramic capacitor and a 10µF electrolytic capacitor near the device. For the logic supply VDD, use a 100nF capacitor. Ensure the SPI lines are routed away from high-current traces to avoid noise coupling.
Do not exceed the absolute maximum supply voltage of 40V. Ensure the SPI interface is properly configured to avoid unintended motor activation. The EN pin must be pulled high to enable the outputs; a floating EN pin can cause unpredictable behavior. When driving inductive loads, the integrated freewheeling diodes are sufficient, but for very high currents, external Schottky diodes may be added to reduce power dissipation.
