Auto-adjusted fast decay during the falling steps
When the target current is decreased by a micro-step change (falling step), the device 
performs a fast decay in order to reach the new value as fast as possible. Anyway, 
exceeding the fast duration could cause a strong ripple on the step change. The L6474 
automatically adjusts these fast decays reducing the current ripple.
At reset, the fast decay value (t
FALL
) is set to FALL_STEP/4 (T_FAST register). The t
FALL
 
value is doubled every time, within the same falling step, an extra fast decay is necessary to 
obtain an ON time greater than TON_MIN. The maximum t
FALL
 value is equal to 
FALL_STEP.
At the next falling step, the system uses the last t
FALL
 value of the previous falling step. 
Stopping the motor or reaching the current sinewave zero crossing causes the current 
control system to return to the reset state.
