L6245 Datasheet PDF - STMicroelectronics

DESCRIPTION
The L6245 contains in a single chip all the functions to operate a sensorless brushless (DC) motor and a voice coil motor, suitable for hard disk drive applications.
The device is configured to interface directly to an 8 bit parallel microprocessor bus, and has a register based architecture to reduce number of interconnection lines. All the positioning loop for sensorless spindle is integrated, including BEMF sensing, digital masking, digital delay and sequencing. All timing function are performed digitally, thus no external filtering components are required.
