A4980KLPTR-T from Allegro MicroSystems, LLC, in a TSSOP-28-EP. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 SENSA passive Current sense node for bridge A; connect a sense resistor between SENSA and PGND, with sense voltage limited to -0.3 to 1 V.
2 STRn input Serial data strobe and serial access enable; when high, SCK and SDI activity is ignored and SDO is high impedance (-0.3 to 6 V).
3 DIR input Direction logic input; direction changes on the next STEP rising edge, and it has no effect when using the serial interface (-0.3 to 6 V).
4 OAP output Bridge A positive output for motor phase A, rated -0.3 to VBB, with positive current flowing from OAM to OAP.
5 OSC input Oscillator input; tie to AGND for the internal 4 MHz oscillator, connect a resistor to VDD to set the frequency, or drive an external 3 to 5 MHz clock.
6 SDI input Serial data input, 16-bit word MSB first, latched on the SCK rising edge (-0.3 to 6 V).
7 AGND power_in Analog reference ground, a quiet return for measurement and input references that must be connected to PGND externally.
8 REF input Reference input voltage setting the absolute maximum current for both phases (0.8 to 2 V); defaults to the internal reference when tied to VDD.
9 SCK input Serial interface clock; data is latched on the rising edge, with 16 rising edges required per write and SCK held high when STRn changes.
10 VDD power_in Logic supply of 3 to 5.5 V, compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V logic, to be decoupled with a 100 nF ceramic capacitor.
11 OBP output Bridge B positive output for motor phase B, rated -0.3 to VBB, with positive current flowing from OBM to OBP.
12 MS1 input Microstep resolution select input, ORed with the MS1 bit in Configuration Register 0 (-0.3 to 6 V).
13 MS0 input Microstep resolution select input, ORed with the MS0 bit in Configuration Register 0 (-0.3 to 6 V).
14 SENSB passive Current sense node for bridge B; connect a sense resistor between SENSB and PGND, with sense voltage limited to -0.3 to 1 V.
15 VBBB power_in Motor supply for bridge B, which also supplies the internal regulators and charge pump, rated -0.3 to 50 V and connected to VBBA.
16 DIAG output Diagnostic output selected via Configuration Register 1, defaulting to a low-true fault output (-0.3 to 6 V).
17 SDO tri_state Serial data output that is high impedance when STRn is high and outputs the diagnostic register Fault flag when STRn goes low.
18 OBM output Bridge B negative output for motor phase B, rated -0.3 to VBB.
19 STEP input Step logic input where the motor advances on the rising edge, a filtered input with hysteresis (-0.3 to 6 V).
20 VREG power_out Regulated supply for bridge gate drive, typically 7.2 V, to be decoupled to ground with a 220 nF ceramic capacitor.
21 PGND power_in Digital and power ground, to be connected to supply ground and AGND.
22 VCP passive Above-supply voltage for high-side drive, with a 100 nF ceramic capacitor connected between VCP and VBB as the pump reservoir.
23 CP1 passive Charge pump capacitor terminal, with a 100 nF (50 V) ceramic capacitor connected between CP1 and CP2.
24 CP2 passive Charge pump capacitor terminal, with a 100 nF (50 V) ceramic capacitor connected between CP1 and CP2.
25 OAM output Bridge A negative output for motor phase A, rated -0.3 to VBB.
26 ENABLE input Bridge enable input; when low it turns off all output bridge FETs while internal logic continues to follow input commands.
27 RESETn input Chip reset that resets faults when pulsed low and forces sleep when held low longer than the 10 µs reset shutdown width.
28 VBBA power_in Motor supply for bridge A, which also supplies the internal regulators and charge pump, rated -0.3 to 50 V and connected to VBBB.
29 PAD power_in Exposed thermal pad that must be connected to ground and soldered to the board for thermal performance.
