External components
The NJM3772 exhibits substantially less power dissipation than most other comparable stepper motor driver ICs on
the market. This has been achieved by creating an external voltage drop in series with the upper transistor in the
output H-bridge, see figure 3. The voltage drop reduces the collector-emitter saturation voltage of the internal
transistor, which can greatly reduce power dissipation of the IC itself. The series resistor, designated R

current ripple, but may improve low-current level linearity. A higher clock frequency reduces current ripple, but

Contributing to the low power dissipation is the fact that the upper recirculation diodes in the output H- bridge are
A low pass filter in series with the comparator input prevents erroneous switching due to switching transients.
Since the low-pass filtering action introduces a small delay of the signal to the comparator, peak voltage across
The time constant of the low-pass filter may therefore be reduced to minimize the delay and optimize low-current
