I'm looking for a full datasheet on the LA5523 manufactured until last year by Sanyo. Information found so far is somewhat basic and doesn't even include a pinout.
Yes, I have tried Sanyo and Google.

Basically it's a variable pulse width modulator driving paralleled transistors. You can also make them with a 555 timer and a single power transistor for higher current applications, I have one5883 2011-03-04 10:30:15 ha5rxz Re: LA5523 Motor Driver IC Got it, thanks.
