The HR8833 is a versatile integrated circuit designed to serve as a dual bridge motor driver solution, particularly suited for applications in toys, printers, and other mechatronic devices. It features two H-bridge drivers capable of efficiently driving two DC brush motors, a bipolar stepper motor, solenoids, or other inductive loads. Each H-bridge incorporates N-channel power MOSFETs configured to form an H-bridge, enabling precise control of motor windings. Additionally, circuitry is integrated into each H-bridge to regulate or limit the winding current, ensuring optimal motor performance.
For enhanced protection and reliability, the HR8833 includes internal shutdown functions with a fault output pin, providing safeguards against over-current, short circuit, under-voltage lockout, and overtemperature conditions. Moreover, a low-power sleep mode is incorporated to minimize power consumption during idle periods, contributing to overall energy efficiency.
Packaged in a 16-pin TSSOP package, as well as in SOP16, the HR8833 offers ease of integration into various electronic designs, making it a practical and reliable choice for motor control applications.
