SLA7020M Phase Signal Input Circuit
Although most step-motor
control IC’S input 4-phase data directly, the SLA7020M requires a special
type of phase data.
In the case of
2-2 phase excitation:
Figure 2-28 shows the excitation signal input circuit.
The A-phase-side excitation signal input is via a single line. The output is divided among non-inverted
A-phase output and A-phase output passed through an
inverter. Therefore, the A-phase output side will
be ON when the excitation input signal is HIGH. The A-phase output side will be ON when the excitation
input signal is LOW.
Figure 2-29 shows the timing chart for 2-2 phase excitation.
