The Mozart™ chip integrates all 
components needed to control 
and drive the spindle motor and 
the voice coil actuator in hard 
disk drives. A proprietary digital 
motor control technique mini-
mizes noise and vibration.

The L5995 and L5996 provide 
state-of-the-art power supply 
management for next-generation 
notebook computers, with smooth 
transitions between the supply 
voltages required in line-powered 
and battery-powered modes.

ST’s printhead driver ICs are 
to be found in printers the 
world over and the Company 
is partnering with a major 
manufacturer to develop a new 
architecture that will significantly 
improve the performance/
cost ratio of inkjet printers.

Complementing its strength in 
CRT monitors, ST has gained 
world class know-how in the 
dynamic market for flat panel 
displays and monitors through 
the acquisition of Arithmos, Inc.
