L6206Q Обзор
A DMOS full-bridge driver is a type of power integrated circuit that uses four N-channel DMOS transistors arranged in an H-bridge configuration to control the direction and speed of a DC motor or the phase currents of a stepper motor. It belongs to the broader category of motor drivers, which are power management ICs that translate low-power control signals into high-current, high-voltage outputs. The L6206Q sits in the hierarchy: DMOS full-bridge driver -> motor driver -> power management IC -> semiconductor.
Key features include a low RDS(on) of 0.3 ohm per switch, which minimizes power dissipation and improves efficiency, and a fast switching frequency of up to 100 kHz, enabling precise PWM control. The device also features a non-dissipative overcurrent protection (OCP) that limits the output current to a safe level, and a diagnostic output that indicates fault conditions. The QFN48 package provides a compact footprint with an exposed thermal pad for enhanced heat dissipation.
The L6206Q uses a mixed-signal BCD (Bipolar-CMOS-DMOS) process technology, integrating the DMOS power stage with CMOS control logic and bipolar protection circuits. This architecture allows for high current handling with low quiescent current and robust protection features. The device supports both parallel and bridge configurations, enabling flexible motor drive topologies.
Typical applications include bipolar stepper motor drivers, DC motor drivers for robotics and automation, and brushless DC motor pre-drivers. The wide supply voltage range and high current capability make it ideal for industrial automation, CNC machines, and automotive actuators. In a stepper motor application, the L6206Q can drive two-phase motors with up to 2.8A per phase, providing smooth microstepping control.
When designing with this device, ensure adequate PCB copper area for the thermal pad to dissipate heat, especially at high output currents. The VREF pin allows current sensing and regulation, which is essential for torque control in stepper applications. The EN pins provide independent enable control for each bridge, enabling power-saving modes.

Заметки по проектированию
The L6206Q in QFN48 package has an exposed thermal pad that must be soldered to a large copper area on the PCB to dissipate heat. At maximum output current of 2.8A per channel, power dissipation can be significant. For example, with RDS(on) of 0.3 ohm, each switch dissipates I^2*R = 2.8^2 * 0.3 = 2.35W, and with two switches conducting per bridge, total dissipation per bridge is 4.7W. Ensure the PCB has adequate thermal vias and copper pour to keep the junction temperature below 150C.
Place the L6206Q close to the motor connectors to minimize trace inductance and resistance. Use wide, short traces for the output pins (OUT1A, OUT1B, OUT2A, OUT2B) to handle high currents. Decouple the VS pin with a 100nF ceramic capacitor and a 10uF electrolytic capacitor placed as close as possible to the IC. The VREF pins should have a sense resistor to ground for current regulation, with the sense resistor placed near the IC to avoid noise pickup.
Do not exceed the absolute maximum supply voltage of 52V. Ensure the logic inputs are not driven above the logic supply voltage. The EN pins must be properly pulled high or low to avoid undefined states. When using the overcurrent protection, note that it is non-dissipative and will limit the output current; do not rely on it for continuous operation. Always provide a freewheeling path for inductive loads, such as flyback diodes, to prevent voltage spikes from damaging the device.
