L6384ED013TR is a three-phase brushless DC motor controller from STMicroelectronics. It is microcontroller-based, and is compatible with ST's STM8 series of products. The controller features a four-step Hall-effect rotor position sensing, fixed-frequency current control, and two on-chip comparator input channels. It also has 7 configurable outputs and a start/stop enable pin. Additionally, the controller comes with a wide range of protection features, such as over current protection (OCP), thermal protection (OTP), and short protection (SCP). The IC is available in a SO-8 package.
