M51970L
MOTOR SPEED CONTROL
DESCRIPTION
The M51970L is a semiconductor integrated circuit designed to
control the motor rotating speed.
Connection of the rotating speed detector (F-G detector) to the
input keeps the motor rotating speed constant with high precision.
Connection of an appropriate power transistor to the output
controls a wide range of DC motors.

(Note 1) How to determine Rτ and Cτ
This constant determines the motor rotating speed. If the motor
rotating speed and the number of poles in the tacho-generator are
assumed to be N and P,
expression is generally established. Putting Rτ in the range of
10kΩ to 500kΩ, select the constant according to the required
rotating speed.

(Note 2) How to determine RSC
According to the relation with maximum current ISC flowing to pin ,
the following relational expression is generally established. Set I
in such a way that the value cannot exceed the maximum rated
value of the power dissipation of the M51970L when the supply
voltage and temperature arrive at their maximum values.
