32-bit Embedded Power ICs based on Arm? Cortex? M subcategories
Embedded Power ICs based on Arm? Cortex?-M integrate on single die the 32-bit microcontroller, the non-volatile flash memory, the analog and mixed signal peripherals, the communication interfaces along with the driving stages needed for either relay, half-bridge or full-bridge DC and BLDC motor applications.
Bridge Driver with a current controlled output stage, flexible charge- and discharge current settings and several diagnostic functions allow optimizing your system with our Embedded Power ICs. These highly integrated products save space and energy, improve the overall system reliability through advanced diagnosis features and reduce the overall cost due to a minimum number of components. They are perfectly fit with a range of motor control applications where a small package form factor and a minimum number of external components are essential. Such applications include window lift, sunroof, wiper, auxilary pumps, HVAC fans and engine cooling fan, to name but a few.
