nRESET, nENBL and nSLEEP Operation

The nRESET pin, when driven active low, resets internal logic, and resets the step table to the home position. It also disables the H-bridge drivers. The STEP input is ignored while nRESET is active.

The nENBL pin is used to control the output drivers and enable or disable operation of the indexer. When nENBL is low, the output H-bridges are enabled, and rising edges on the STEP pin are recognized. When nENBL is high, the H-bridges are disabled, the outputs are in a high-impedance state, and the STEP input is ignored.

Driving nSLEEP low puts the device into a low-power sleep state. In this state, the H-bridges are disabled, the gate drive charge pump is stopped, the V3P3OUT regulator is disabled, and all internal clocks are stopped. In this state, all inputs are ignored until nSLEEP returns high. When returning from sleep mode, some time (approximately 1 ms) needs to pass before applying a STEP input, to allow the internal circuitry to stabilize.

The nRESET and nENBL pins have internal pulldown resistors of 100 kΩ. The nSLEEP pin has an internal pulldown resistor of 1 MΩ.
