Battery-Powered Motor Driver

Small, silent, precise, and extremely efficient with a standby current draw of <50nA (typ.), ADI Trinamic's battery-powered motor drivers set the standard for IoT, home automation, and handheld devices. Together with the lowest-in-class RDSon of LS 170mO and HS 170mO (typ.), these motor driver ICs save battery life like no other.

Low Voltage Motor Control:

This paper focuses on the aspects of driving a stepper motor or a DC motor with a local energy source, like a single Li-Ion cell or dual/triple AA-Battery. Measurements taken with an example setup show the limitations and deliver performance figures for the motor and driver combination. A topology with a step-up voltage regulator is compared to a solution with a motor wound for low voltage operation.
