A4984SETTR-T from Allegro MicroSystems, LLC, in a QFN-32(5x5). 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 OUT2B output DMOS full bridge 2 output B; motor output voltage is rated -2.0 to 37 V with output current up to ±2 A.
2 NC unconnected No connection; in the ET package this pin separates critical output, sense and supply pins so that a pin-to-adjacent-pin short does not cause smoke or fire.
3 VBB2 power_in Load supply for full bridge 2; operating range is 8-35 V and 0-35 V during Sleep mode.
4 NC unconnected No connection; no-connect pin placed between critical output, sense and supply pins for no-smoke-no-fire compliance.
5 ENABLE input Active-low logic input that enables the FET outputs when low and disables them when high, while the translator inputs remain active; input high threshold is VDD × 0.7 minimum and low threshold is VDD × 0.3 maximum.
6 GND power_in Ground pin; the GND pins must be tied together externally to the PAD ground plane under the device.
7 CP1 passive Charge pump capacitor terminal; a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor is connected between CP1 and CP2.
8 CP2 passive Charge pump capacitor terminal; a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor is connected between CP1 and CP2.
9 VCP passive Charge pump reservoir capacitor terminal; a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor is required between VCP and VBB, and an undervoltage on VCP disables the FET outputs.
10 VREG power_out Internally generated regulator output with nominal 7 V, which must be decoupled with a 0.22 µF ceramic capacitor to ground.
11 MS1 input Microstep select logic input with a 100 kΩ internal pull-down that sets the step resolution together with MS2.
12 MS2 input Microstep select logic input with a 50 kΩ internal pull-down that sets the step resolution together with MS1.
13 RESET input Active-low logic input that sets the translator to the Home state and turns off all FET outputs; STEP inputs are ignored until RESET is set high.
14 ROSC input Timing set pin; tied to VDD or directly to GND sets a 30 µs off-time, while a resistor to ground sets tOFF ≈ ROSC/825 µs (tOFF in µs).
15 SLEEP input Active-low logic input; a logic low puts the device into Sleep mode (below 10 µA), and a 1 ms delay is required after leaving Sleep before issuing a STEP command.
16 VDD power_in Logic supply with an operating range of 3.0-5.5 V.
17 STEP input Step logic input; each low-to-high transition advances the motor one microstep, with minimum HIGH and LOW pulse widths of 1 µs.
18 REF input Gm reference voltage input with an operating range of 0-4 V (absolute maximum 5.5 V), which sets the current trip level through ITripMAX = VREF/(8×RS).
19 GND power_in Ground pin; the GND pins must be tied together externally to the PAD ground plane under the device.
20 DIR input Direction logic input; changes to this input do not take effect until the next STEP rising edge.
21 NC unconnected No connection; no-connect pin placed between critical output, sense and supply pins for no-smoke-no-fire compliance.
22 VBB1 power_in Load supply for full bridge 1; operating range is 8-35 V and 0-35 V during Sleep mode.
23 NC unconnected No connection; no-connect pin placed between critical output, sense and supply pins for no-smoke-no-fire compliance.
24 OUT1B output DMOS full bridge 1 output B; motor output voltage is rated -2.0 to 37 V with output current up to ±2 A.
25 SENSE1 passive Sense resistor terminal for bridge 1; the SENSE1 voltage must not exceed the -0.5 V to 0.5 V absolute maximum rating.
26 NC unconnected No connection; no-connect pin placed between critical output, sense and supply pins for no-smoke-no-fire compliance.
27 OUT1A output DMOS full bridge 1 output A; motor output voltage is rated -2.0 to 37 V with output current up to ±2 A.
28 NC unconnected No connection; no-connect pin placed between critical output, sense and supply pins for no-smoke-no-fire compliance.
29 NC unconnected No connection; no-connect pin placed between critical output, sense and supply pins for no-smoke-no-fire compliance.
30 OUT2A output DMOS full bridge 2 output A; motor output voltage is rated -2.0 to 37 V with output current up to ±2 A.
31 NC unconnected No connection; no-connect pin placed between critical output, sense and supply pins for no-smoke-no-fire compliance.
32 SENSE2 passive Sense resistor terminal for bridge 2; the SENSE2 voltage must not exceed the -0.5 V to 0.5 V absolute maximum rating.
33 EP passive Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table).
