Toshiba unveils low power consumption brushed DC motor driver IC

KUALA LUMPUR, May 30 (Bernama) -- Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (Toshiba) has launched the ‘TB67H450FNG’, the latest addition to its line-up of brushed DC motor driver ICs.

Its mass production beginning today, the new product offers a small HSOP8 surface mount package with a popular pin-assignment that enhances the product sourcing possibility.

The new IC can drive brushed motors with a power supply ranging from 4.5V to 44V.

It supports a wide range of applications such as USB-powered, battery-powered and industrial 12-36V devices.

TB67H450FNG also has 3.5A current driving capability that can be used in applications, including robot vacuum cleaners, refrigerators and other home appliance actuators, office equipment and automated teller machines.

To meet demand for lower power consumption, Toshiba has also optimised the TB67H450FNG standby current consumption with a new power supply circuit that allows the stop mode to move into standby mode automatically and turn off the VCC regulator for internal circuit operation.

This helps OA equipment and home appliances to cut energy consumption and improves the battery life of battery powered devices.
