The UC3717ANG4 is a Stepper Motor Drive Circuit, improved version of the UC3717, used to switch drive the current in one winding of a bipolar stepper motor. The UC3717ANG4 has been modified to supply higher winding current, more reliable thermal protection and improved efficiency by providing integrated bootstrap circuitry to lower recirculation saturation voltages. The diagram shown below presents the building blocks of the UC3717ANG4. Included are an LS-TTL compatible logic input, a current sensor, a monostable, a thermal shutdown network and an H-bridge output stage. The output stage features built-in fast recovery commutating diodes and integrated bootstrap pull up. Two UC3717As and a few external components form a complete control and drive unit for LS-TTL or microprocessor controlled stepper motor systems.
