6.15 Integrated
analog-to-digital converter
The L6472 integrates an N
ADC
bit ramp-compare analog-to-digital converter with a reference
voltage equal to VREG. The analog-to-digital converter input is available through the ADCIN
pin and the conversion result is available in the ADC_OUT register (see
pin and the conversion result is available in the ADC_OUT register (see
). The sampling frequency is equal to the clock frequency divided by 512.
The ADC_OUT value can be used for the torque regulation or can remain at the user’s
disposal.

Internal voltage regulator
The L6472 device integrates a voltage regulator which generates a 3 V voltage starting from
motor power supply (VSA and VSB). In order to make the voltage regulator stable, at least
22 µF should be connected between the VREG pin and ground (the suggested value is 47
µF).

The internal voltage regulator can be used to supply the VDD pin in order to make the
device digital output range 3.3 V compatible (

both cases, a 10 µF capacitance should be connected to the VDD pin in order to obtain
a correct operation.
