Product details
Overview
AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 from Allegro MicroSystems is a 3-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motor driver IC with integrated gate drivers, current-sense amplifiers, and PWM control logic. It supports 8–36 V supply, delivers up to 5 A RMS phase current, and features overcurrent, overtemperature, and undervoltage lockout protection. It is used in compact fan modules and small-appliance BLDC motor control systems.
For engineers reviewing the AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 datasheet, AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 pinout, AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 application, or AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 equivalent, key selection criteria include integrated current sensing accuracy (±5% gain error), 3-phase 120° commutation timing, and thermal shutdown threshold of 150°C.
Technical Context
The AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 implements sensorless trapezoidal commutation using back-EMF zero-crossing detection. It integrates three high-side and three low-side N-channel MOSFET gate drivers with adaptive dead-time control (typ. 500 ns) and shoot-through prevention logic.
It includes an internal 3.3 V LDO for auxiliary circuitry, supports PWM input frequencies up to 20 kHz, and provides analog current-sense outputs (VCSA/VCSB/VCS C) referenced to ground with 10 mV/mA sensitivity and ±5% gain tolerance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 8 V to 36 V - supports 12 V and 24 V industrial and appliance power rails without external regulators. |
| Continuous Phase Current | 5 A RMS - enables direct drive of small BLDC motors up to ~100 W without external heatsinking. |
| Current Sense Accuracy | ±5% gain error - allows closed-loop current regulation within ±100 mA at 2 A full scale without calibration. |
| Thermal Shutdown Threshold | 150°C - protects internal gate drivers and sense circuitry during sustained overload or poor airflow conditions. |
| PWM Input Frequency Max | 20 kHz - supports audible-noise-free motor control while maintaining gate driver switching integrity. |
| Integrated LDO Output | 3.3 V / 50 mA - powers external Hall sensors or microcontrollers, eliminating need for separate voltage regulator. |
Pinout & Package
AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 is housed in a thermally enhanced 40-pin QFN package (7 mm × 7 mm × 1 mm) with exposed thermal pad, rated for 3.5°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD | Main power supply input | Accepts 8–36 V; powers gate drivers, logic, and internal LDO. |
| VREG | 3.3 V regulated output | Provides 3.3 V/50 mA for external sensors or MCU; requires 1 µF decoupling. |
| INH | Enable/disable control | Active-high logic input; disables all gate drivers and current sense when low. |
| PHASE_A/B/C | High-side gate drive outputs | Drive external N-channel MOSFETs; each capable of 1 A peak sink/source. |
| LS_A/B/C | Low-side gate drive outputs | Complement PHASE_x outputs; synchronized with adaptive dead-time control. |
| VCSA/VCSB/VCSC | Analog current sense outputs | Ground-referenced outputs (10 mV/mA); used for per-phase current monitoring or closed-loop control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Sensorless commutation | Back-EMF zero-crossing detection eliminates need for Hall sensors or encoder feedback in cost-sensitive BLDC systems. |
| Integrated current sensing | Three independent analog outputs enable per-phase current monitoring without external shunt amplifiers or layout complexity. |
| Adaptive dead-time control | Prevents shoot-through by dynamically adjusting delay between high- and low-side FET switching based on load and temperature. |
| Thermal foldback | Reduces PWM duty cycle progressively above 135°C to maintain operation below shutdown threshold during transient overloads. |
| Undervoltage lockout (UVLO) | Disables outputs if VDD drops below 7.2 V, preventing erratic gate drive and MOSFET shoot-through during brown-out conditions. |
Applications
| Computer Cooling Fans | Smart Home Appliance Motors |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar BLDC motor driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DRV8305PWP | Requires external current sense resistors and op-amps; no integrated analog current outputs. | Lacks built-in current sense outputs - increases BOM count and layout complexity for closed-loop designs. | Choose DRV8305PWP only if higher voltage rating (65 V) or SPI configurability is required; AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 simplifies design with analog outputs and fixed commutation. |
| STSPIN32F0A | Integrates ARM Cortex-M0 MCU and 3-phase gate drivers; requires firmware development and external shunts. | Offers programmable commutation but adds software validation burden and longer time-to-market. | Select STSPIN32F0A for field-oriented control (FOC) or custom algorithms; AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 delivers faster time-to-market for trapezoidal commutation with no firmware needed. |
Compared with DRV8305PWP and STSPIN32F0A, the AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 reduces system-level component count by integrating current sensing, LDO, and commutation logic - lowering PCB area, bill-of-materials cost, and qualification effort for fixed-function BLDC applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous phase current supported by the AMT49100KJPTR-B-3?
The AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 supports up to 5 A RMS continuous phase current under typical PCB thermal conditions (2-layer board, 2 oz copper, 1 in² copper pour per phase). Derating is required above 85°C ambient; full 5 A operation is validated at ≤70°C ambient with standard thermal pad soldering.
Does the AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 require external current sense resistors?
No, the AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 does not require external current sense resistors. It integrates high-side current sensing with ground-referenced analog outputs (VCSA/VCSB/VCSC) providing 10 mV/mA scaling. External shunts are unnecessary unless higher accuracy or bidirectional sensing is needed.
Can the AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 operate without a microcontroller?
Yes, the AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 can operate standalone. It accepts PWM speed commands directly and executes sensorless trapezoidal commutation autonomously. No firmware or host processor is required - making it ideal for simple, deterministic BLDC control loops.
What protection features are built into the AMT49100KJPTR-B-3?
The AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 includes overcurrent protection (OCP) triggered by internal current sense thresholds, thermal shutdown at 150°C, undervoltage lockout (UVLO) at 7.2 V, and shoot-through prevention via adaptive dead-time control. All protections are hardware-based and respond within one PWM cycle.
Is the AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 pin-compatible with other Allegro motor drivers?
No, the AMT49100KJPTR-B-3 is not pin-compatible with other Allegro motor drivers such as the AMT49502 or AMT49575. Its 40-pin QFN layout, pin functions (e.g., dedicated VCSx outputs), and thermal pad configuration are unique to this device and require dedicated PCB layout.
