About this manual

The SA306 3‑Phase Switching Amplifier is a fully integrated driver intended for three‑phase brushless DC motors and other high‑current loads. It features independent half‑bridge outputs, integrated gate‑driver logic with dead‑time, and programmable cycle‑by‑cycle current limiting.

The device operates from 8.5 V to 60 V, delivers over 15 A peak per phase (5 A continuous per phase), and includes thermal and over‑current protection. Pin descriptions, timing diagrams, and thermal management guidelines are provided for designers.
