INTRODUCTION
COMMON PROBLEMS
This chapter describes common problems associated with using the PICDEM™
Mechatronics and steps on how to resolve them.
3.2.1
The board must be powered by one of the following:
• A 9-12 V
• A 9-12 V
• A 9 V
• A 5 V
Supplying less than 9 V
to function properly causing V
3.2.2
There must be a two-pin shunt present on JP8 connecting the middle pin to +5 V
9-12 V
the drive stage is disabled. Press the CLR FAULT button (SW5) to enable the drive
stage.
3.2.3
Verify that the motor is not drawing over 1.2 amps. Check the voltage at CURRENT
SENSE (J15) before the FAULT LED turns on again. Voltage is equal to the current at
J15, therefore, if the voltage is 1.2V or greater, the drive is drawing too much current or
possibly shorted.
Verify the motor is being driven properly. The N-channel and P-channel MOSFETs on
any given Drive (DRIVE 1, DRIVE 2, etc.) should not be turned on simultaneously. (See
note).
J2 connects the MOSFET control lines for DRIVE 1 and DRIVE 2 and J3 connects the
control lines for DRIVE 3 and DRIVE 4. If shunts are present on J2 and J3, verify that
they are connected intentionally and not from a previous design.

Hardware is in place to ensure the N-channel and P-channel MOSFETs on
a given Drive are not turned on at the same time. However, if you are
switching the N-channel MOSFET rapidly, it is possible for both MOSFETs
to be on at the same time.
