As a powerful brushed DC motor driver, ChipSourceTek-CST6130 has shown a wide range of application potential in small appliances, toys, electronic locks, advanced robots, digital products, and other small power tools and electromechanical equipment. This article will discuss in detail the technical features, working principles, protection functions, application fields, and related ordering and application information of ChipSourceTek-CST6130 to provide readers with a comprehensive understanding and reference.

### ChipSourceTek-CST6130 Technical features

    The core of the ChipSourceTek-CST6130 is its integration of a single-channel H-bridge motor driver consisting of four n-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect tubes (MOSFETs). This design enables the ChipSourceTek-CST6130 to control the motor bidirectionally at peak currents of up to 5.5A, meeting the drive capability needs of a wide range of small electric devices. Its operating voltage range is wide, from 2.5V to 15V can work normally, which further increases its adaptability in different application scenarios.

    In addition, the ChipSourceTek-CST6130 features a low on-resistance, with a total on-resistance of only 120 Mω on the high and low sides, which helps to reduce energy consumption and improve efficiency. Its 3.0A average current drive capability and 5.5A peak current drive capability make the ChipSourceTek-CST6130 easy to drive small DC motors. At the same time, through the pulse width modulation (PWM) control interface, users can easily achieve accurate control of motor speed to meet different application requirements.

### ChipSourceTek-CST6130 Working principle and functions

    The ChipSourceTek-CST6130 controls the H-bridge drive through two logical inputs to realize the four basic functions of the motor: forward, reverse, stop and brake. The user can control the running state of the motor by setting the logic level of these two inputs. For example, when both inputs are high voltage, the motor is running positively. When input 1 is high level and input 2 is low level, the motor reverses; When both inputs are low, the motor stops or brakes (depending on the specific design requirements).

    It is worth mentioning that the ChipSourceTek-CST6130 also has a low-power sleep mode. When the system does not need to drive the motor, the ChipSourceTek-CST6130 can set the two inputs to low and hold them for a period of time, and the Chipsourcetek-CST6130 will automatically enter low-power sleep mode to reduce energy consumption. This feature is especially important for devices that require long periods of standby or battery power.

###ChipSourceTek-CST6130 Protection function

    In order to ensure the safe and stable operation of the motor, the ChipSourceTek-CST6130 integrates a number of protection functions. Among them, the overcurrent protection (OCP) function can automatically turn off the drive when the motor current is too large to prevent motor damage. Undervoltage lock (UVLO) function can automatically stop the motor when the power supply voltage is too low to avoid damage to the motor in the case of insufficient voltage. The overheat Protection (TSD) function automatically turns off the drive when the temperature is too high, preventing failure due to overheating.

    In addition, the ChipSourceTek-CST6130 features automatic fault recovery. When the fault is removed, the drive can automatically return to its normal working state without manual intervention. This function greatly improves the reliability and stability of the equipment.

### ChipSourceTek-CST6130 application field

    The ChipSourceTek-CST6130 is the driver of choice for many small electric devices due to its excellent performance and wide range of applications. In the field of electronic lock, ChipSourceTek-CST6130 can drive the lock core motor to realize the switch lock function; In the field of toys, it can drive a variety of small motors to achieve the action and sound effects of toys; In the field of robotics, ChipSourceTek-CST6130 can drive the joint motor of the robot to achieve a variety of complex actions; In the field of digital products, it can be used to drive the camera head motor and so on.
