Description
TLE 4729 G is a bipolar, monolithic IC for driving bipolar stepper motors, DC motors and
other inductive loads that operate by constant current. It is fully pin and function
compatible except the current programing is inverse to the TLE 4728 G with an additional
inhibit feature. The control logic and power output stages for two bipolar windings are
integrated on a single chip which permits switched current control of motors with 0.7 A
per phase at operating voltages up to 16 V.
The direction and value of current are programmable for each phase via separate control
inputs. In the case of low at all four current program inputs the device is switched in
inhibit mode automatically. A common oscillator generates the timing for the current
control and turn-on with phase offset of the two output stages. The two output stages in
full-bridge configuration include fast integrated freewheeling diodes and are free of
crossover current. The device can be driven directly by a microprocessor in several
modes by programming phase direction and current control of each bridge
independently.
With the two error outputs the TLE 4729 G signals malfunction of the device. Setting the
control inputs high resets the error flag and by reactivating the bridges one by one the
location of the error can be found.

Application Hints
The TLE 4729 G is intended to drive both phases of a stepper motor. Special care has
been taken to provide high efficiency, robustness and to minimize external components.
Power Supply
The TLE 4729 G will work with supply voltages ranging from 5 V to 16 V at pin VS. Surges
exceeding 16 V at V S wont harm the circuit up to 45 V, but whole function is not
guaranteed. As soon as the voltage drops below approximately 16 V the TLE 4729 G
works promptly again.
As the circuit operates with chopper regulation of the current, interference generation
problems can arise in some applications. Therefore the power supply should be
decoupled by a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor located near the package. Unstabilized
supplies may even afford higher capacities.
Inhibit Mode
In the case of low at all four current program inputs IXX the device will switch into inhibit
condition; the current consumption is reduced to very low values.
When starting operation again, i.e. putting at least one IXX to high potential, the Error 1
output signals an open load error if the corresponding phase input is high. The error is
reset by first recirculation in chop mode.
Current Sensing
The current in the windings of the stepper motor is sensed by the voltage drop across
Rsense. Depending on the selected current internal comparators will turn off the sink
transistor as soon as the voltage drop reaches certain thresholds (typical 0 V, 0.07 V,
0.45 V and 0.7 V). These thresholds are not affected by variations of VS. Consequently
instabilized supplies will not affect the performance of the regulation. For precise current
level it must be considered, that internal bounding wire (typ. 60 mΩ) is a part of Rsense.
Due to chopper control fast current rises (up to 10 A/µs) will occur at the sensing
resistors. To prevent malfunction of the current sensing mechanism Rsense should be
pure ohmic. The resistors should be wired to GND as directly as possible. Capacitive
loads such as long cables (with high wire to wire capacity) to the motor should be
avoided for the same reason.
Error Monitoring
The error outputs signal corresponding to the logic table the errors described below.
Logic Table
Only in the case of a short circuit to GND, the most probably kind of a short circuit in
automotive applications, the malfunction is signaled dominant (see d) in logic table) by a
separate error flag. Simultaneously the output current is disabled after 30 µs to prevent
disturbances.
A phase change-over or putting both current control inputs of the affected bridge on low
potential resets the error flipflop. Being a separate flipflop for every bridge, the error can
be located in easy way.
