TOKYO—Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") has launched an H-bridge motor driver, “TC78H660FNG,” housed in a TSSOP16 package with a widely used pin-assignment. It is Toshiba’s latest addition to its line-up of drivers for brushed DC motors and stepping motors for applications that include mobile devices and home appliances.
Toshiba’s new-generation DMOS process allows TC78H660FNG to achieve a low ON resistance of 0.48Ω at its maximum rating of 18V/2.0A,[1] and reduces heat generation compared with Toshiba’s current products.
The new driver has a regulator for driving internal circuits, and can drive a motor with a single power supply ranging from 2.5V to 16V. Its wide range of applications include mobile devices powered by a 3.7V lithium-ion battery, 5V USB powered devices, and 12V system devices for home appliances. It also supports a low 1.8V interface.

[1] Actual motor drive current depends on the use environment and such factors as ambient temperature and power supply voltage.

Features
・Single power drive, simple PWM control
・Low ON resistance reduces heat generation compared with Toshiba’s current products.
(Ron=0.48Ω (upper + lower: typ.) @VM=12V, Ta = 25°C)
・Low current consumption (ultra-low standby current: 0.1μA or less ＠Ta=25°C)

Applications
Battery-powered mobile devices, including robots and toys; home appliances including refrigerators, smart meters, etc.
