Allegro MicroSystems LLC · Brushless DC (BLDC) Motor Driver · QFN-28-EP(5x5)

A4915METTR-T from Allegro MicroSystems LLC, in a QFN-28-EP(5x5). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VBB power_in Power supply input, 5 V to 50 V operating range
2 SPEED input PWM duty cycle analog input, 0 V to VDD; output enabled above 79% VDD, disabled below 20% VDD
3 TDEAD input Dead time setting terminal with external resistor 12 kΩ to 220 kΩ connected to ground
4 VDD power_in Logic supply voltage input, 3 V to 5.5 V operating range
5 FAULT output Open-drain active-high fault output for thermal shutdown and protection events
6 ENABLE input PWM enable logic input; high enables phase drivers, low enters sleep mode after 1-3 ms
7 DIR input Motor direction control logic input for commutation direction selection
8 BRAKEn input Active-low brake logic input that shorts all low-side drivers to LSS, overriding ENABLE and SPEED
9 HA input Hall sensor input phase A with internal 100 kΩ pull-up to VDD
10 HB input Hall sensor input phase B with internal 100 kΩ pull-up to VDD
11 HC input Hall sensor input phase C with internal 100 kΩ pull-up to VDD
12 LSS input Low-side current sense terminal for external resistor (200-500 mV drop) or ground connection
13 GLC output Low-side gate driver output phase C, minimum voltage VREG - 0.2 V at 10 µA load
14 GHC output High-side gate driver output phase C, minimum voltage Cx - 0.2 V with charged bootstrap capacitor
15 SC power_in Phase C high-side source connection providing negative supply for high-side gate driver
16 CC power_out Phase C bootstrap supply node for capacitor and high-side gate driver
17 GLB output Low-side gate driver output phase B, minimum voltage VREG - 0.2 V at 10 µA load
18 GHB output High-side gate driver output phase B, minimum voltage Cx - 0.2 V with charged bootstrap capacitor
19 SB power_in Phase B high-side source connection providing negative supply for high-side gate driver
20 CB power_out Phase B bootstrap supply node for capacitor and high-side gate driver
21 GLA output Low-side gate driver output phase A, minimum voltage VREG - 0.2 V at 10 µA load
22 GHA output High-side gate driver output phase A, minimum voltage Cx - 0.2 V with charged bootstrap capacitor
23 SA power_in Phase A high-side source connection providing negative supply for high-side gate driver
24 CA power_out Phase A bootstrap supply node for capacitor and high-side gate driver
25 VREG power_out Regulated gate drive supply output, 7.0 V to 13.75 V depending on VBB input voltage
26 CP2 passive Charge pump capacitor terminal; connect 0.47 µF ceramic capacitor between CP1 and CP2
27 CP1 passive Charge pump capacitor terminal; connect 0.47 µF ceramic capacitor between CP1 and CP2
28 GND power_in Ground connection for logic and power return
29 EP passive Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table).
