Hello Everyone,
I'm designing a 50V 8A+ Bipolar Stepper Motor driver. I'm new to Discrete H-Bridges and plus I'm not very familiar with all the new MOSFETS and MOSFET Drivers in the market. I was wondering if you can share your experience with MOSFETS and MOSFET Drivers.
So far the Drivers I came across are
- Intersil HIP4082
- IRS2304
- Microchip TC4424
And The MOSFETS
- STF40NF06
- IRFZ24
- IRFZ44
- IRF9530 and IRF540
Well I came across plenty of other parts as well. Lets jus say the more U seek the More U find in this case. Just before I decide on one part I come across another which seemed better(btw My knowledge on MOSFETS is Very Limited. So cant really say if its Really a Better one I jus found). So I was wondering if someone can help me pick the right Driver and MOSFET for a Driver with the following Specs
- Dual H-Bridge (MOSFET) Bipolar Stepper Driver 8A+ @ 50V
- Step Sequencing will be done using a PIC or Atmega uC
- Step Rate will be in the range of 2000-3500 Pulses/Second
- Current Limiting is done using an External PWM @ 20kHz
Please Advice!
Thank You.
Joe!
