Enable / Disable of the two half bridges BTN9990 (Half-Bridge 1)and BTN9970 (Half Bridge 2):
If disabled, OUT 1 / 2 are high impedance. If enabled, status of OUT 1 / 2 pins depends on PWM off / on setting.
Control of outputs OUT 1 and OUT2:
Below picture shows the default setting of the outputs of both devices BTN9970 and BTN9990.
In the frequency filed a maximum PWM frequency of 20kHz can be selected.
The duty cycle range is between 0% and 100%, default 50%.
0% duty cycle corresponds to output OUT1 /2 set to low (connected to GND).
100% duty cycle connects the output OUT 1 / 2 permanently to the supply voltage.
Output state indicator field
The indicators turn to green if the corresponding device is enabled and PWM is turned on.

User Manual
Sense Resistor Configuration BTN9990:
In this field, the sense resistor of BTN9990 can be adapted in case it has been modified on the board. Default is
2k. Usually, not modification is required here.
BTN9990 IS current sensing:
With enabling “Plot”, the sense current value provided by BTN9990 (Half-Bridge 1) is plotted in the graph
window. With this tool, only the sense current of BTN9990 Half-Bridge 1 high side switch can be plotted. Due to
limited sample rate of the tool, the values plotted are not real time measures in case PWM control with duty
cycle < 100% is used for Half-Bridge 1.

User Manual
4Example for BTN9970 and BTN9990
The following example shows the configuration of the tool to drive a DC brush motor in a full bridge
configuration, as shown in Figure 3. A motor needs to be connected between outputs OUT1 and OUT2.
PWM frequency should be 10kHz, the duty cycle is 50%.
Half bridge 1 (BTN9990) output is driven high (connect to supply voltage), half bridge 2 (BTN9970) is controlled
via PWM to control the motor to approximately half of maximum speed.
The setting is shown below
To get the motor spinning both PWM on buttons need to be selected and both devices have to be enabled.
See settings below.
Changing the frequency of BTN9970 (half bridge 2), the speed of the motor can be modified.

7Description of the graphical user interface for BTN7030
Enable / Disable of the two half bridges BTN7030 and diagnosis.
If disabled, OUT 1 / 2 are high impedance. If enabled, status of OUT 1 / 2 pins depends on settings of IN1 and IN2
pin (Low, High, PWM). The device features diagnosis function which can be turned on/off by setting the buttons
“Enable Diagnosis Half Bridges 1 / 2”.
Control of outputs OUT1 and OUT2:
Below picture shows the default setting of the outputs of both devices BTN9970 and BTN9990.
In the frequency filed a maximum PWM frequency of 2kHz can be selected.
If button PWM is selected the corresponding output will be PWM’ed.
The duty cycle range is between 0% and 100%, default 50%.
0% duty cycle corresponds to output OUT1 /2 set to low (connected to GND).
100% duty cycle connects the output OUT 1 / 2 permanently to the supply voltage.
The status of the outputs is shown in field “Output state” with highlighted button.

User Manual
If selected, the plot field area shows the IC1 sense current (half bridge 1 ) in the right graph and the
corresponding IC1 load current in the left graph. The load current is calculated by the tool out of the IC1 sense
current signal. The plots do not reflect real time values, due to sampling limitations of the tool. The load
current and sense current signal can only be shown for IC1 (half-bridge 1), not for IC2 (half-bridge 2).
