KUALA LUMPUR, June 15 (Bernama) -- Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (Toshiba) has launched motor driver ICs for consumer and industrial equipment that need fewer external parts and that are housed in a small, highly versatile, space saving package.

According to a statement, the launch expands Toshiba's lineup with four products namely “TB67S581FNG”; “TB67S580FNG”; “TB67H481FNG”; and “TB67H480FNG”.

The TB67S581FNG and TB67S580FNG are two-phase bipolar stepping motor driver ICs, while TB67H481FNG and TB67H480FNG are constant current dual H-bridge driver ICs with a motor output voltage rating of 50V and a motor output current rating of 2.5A.

Furthermore, TB67S581FNG has a motor output voltage rating of 50V and a motor output current rating of 2.5A, while TB67S580FNG has ratings of 50V and 1.6A, respectively.

The products use the small, highly versatile HTSSOP28 package, which has a mounting area approximately 39 per cent smaller than the HTSSOP48 package used for Toshiba’s current product, TB67S109AFNG.

Toshiba will continue to develop products for a wide range of applications, and to provide total solutions that contribute to design simplification, board area reduction, and total cost reduction.
