APPLICATION INFORMATION
Introduction
Full–wave driving of a three phase motor requires three push–pull output stages. In each of the six possible states two outputs are active, one
corresponding motor coil by the EMF comparator at each output. The commutation logic is responsible for control of the output transistors and
selection of the correct EMF comparator.
The zero–crossing in the motor EMF (detected by the comparator selected by the commutation logic) is used to calculate the correct moment
for the neat commutation, that is, the change to the next output state. The delay is calculated (depending on the motor loading) by the adaptive
commutation delay block.
by thermal protection of the six output transistors.
The zero–crossings can be used to provide speed information such as the tacho signal FG.
