FAQs

Q: What is the maximum motor voltage this IC supports?
A: The L6202 supports motor loads up to 48V DC, matching its supply voltage range.

Q: Can I parallel channels for higher current?
A: No, paralleling isn’t recommended. For >1.5A applications, consider alternative bridge drivers.

Q: Does this require external flyback diodes?
A: Internal body diodes handle typical inductive spikes, but critical applications may benefit from external Schottky diodes.

Q: Is thermal management required?
A: A heatsink is advised for continuous operation near max current due to 300mΩ Rds(On).

Q: What logic voltage levels does the interface use?
A: TTL-compatible inputs (3V-5V logic) with high noise immunity.

Q: Why choose obsolete components?
A: They maintain legacy systems and offer cost-effective solutions for non-evolving designs.
