According to the specification, LDO needs to be enabled (value 0b11)
to achieve the specified max driving current of 150mA:

Otherwise the chip is probably just using the regular CMOS logic output
(typically limited to around 20-35mA, but not specified in this datasheet),
which would be probably overdriven, if we try to drive the motor with it.

And since we're driving a motor directly, the more the better.

thank you and regards,
	o.
