LD-SPM-VCM-0010-050 SPINDLE/VCM MEGACELL

The LD-SPM-VCM-0010-050 Spindle/VCM megacell is a CMOS monolithic device that integrates spindle and VCM controllers as well as power stages into one megacell. The device operates from 3.3V power supply and is designed for a small-form-factor hard disk drive application.

A precision low voltage detection circuit monitors the power supply and initiates VCM retract at voltage fault condition. A 3-line serial port interface with read back capability provides interface to the microprocessor.

The spindle driver features a transconductance amplifier, current sense amplifier, power output drivers, sequencer, internal delay/masking logic, spindle brake circuit, FLL, and charge pump for locking the spindle to the programmed rotational speed. The VCM driver features a transconductance amplifier, differential input current sense amplifier, ramp load/unload capability, and power output amplifier.
