About this manual

The A3958SB and A3958SLB are DMOS full-bridge PWM motor drivers designed for pulse-width modulated (PWM) current control of DC motors. They support continuous output currents up to +2 A and operating voltages up to 50 V. The devices feature internal fixed off-time PWM current-control timing circuitry that can be programmed via a serial interface to operate in slow, fast, and mixed current-decay modes.
