The UC3176/7 family of full bridge power amplifiers is rated for a continuous output current of 2A. Intended for use in demanding servo applications such as disk head positioning, the onboard current sense amplifier can be used to obtain precision control of load current, or where voltage mode drive is required, a standard voltage feedback scheme can be used. Output stage protection includes foldback current limiting and thermal shutdown, resulting in a very rugged device.
The UC3176/7 family of integrated circuits consists of full bridge power amplifiers rated for a continuous output current of 2A. These devices are intended for demanding servo applications such as disk head positioning and include an onboard precision current sense amplifier or standard voltage feedback schemes.
Key features include dual input under-voltage comparators, parking function, under-voltage lockout, safe operating area protection, and operation over a supply range of 3V to 35V. The devices incorporate foldback current limiting and thermal shutdown for rugged performance.
