Evaluation Board for  
Motor Driver, Single-phase, PWM, 
Full-wave, BLDC Motor 
Overview 
This evaluation board is designed to provide an easy and quick development 
platform for single-phase BLDC motor control applications, using the following devices. 
  LV88551, LV88561, LV88563 
These devices have the closed loop controller for motor rotation speed. And, 
potentiometers are provided on this board to configure the minimum/maximum target speed, the speed curve against the input PWM duty 
cycle, and some other parameters/options. The potentiometers might be useful 
for tuning these parameters and options, otherwise fixed resistors must be 
removed and re-soldered. 
Setting with fixed resistors is also applicable by disconnecting the potentiometers. 
Quick start 
The evaluation board is programmed to work standalone without PC. The 
following operation allows the operation of most motors with the default 
parameters that are preloaded into the device. 
step 1. Connect a motor to J3 
step 2. Connect PWM signal to the pin labeled ‘PWM’ 
step 3. Connect a power supply to J4 (J5 is provided optionally for low 
power application less than 4A). 
step 4. Turn on power supply

HARDWARE DESCRIPTION 
Name and Function 
Motor windings and signals related Hall 
A dial to tweak the command PWM duty cycle for speed control 
Figure 1 Connectors and key parts 
Power supply 
J4 is the main power supply connector. The outputs of a 
power supplier will be connected to this connector. For 
LV88551EVB, the POWER pin voltage accepts up to 
18V. However, for LV88561EVB and LV88563EVB, 
POWER pin for the operation is from 24V to 48V. 
Figure 2 Main power 
J5 is an optional connector for a power supply. Low 
power is assumed (less than 4A).

Motor 
J3 is the motor connector.

Hall sensor or Hall IC 
These devices need a Hall sensor or Hall IC to detect the 
commutation timing. IN1 and IN2 pins are Hall signal 
input pins. This EVB has Hall sensor and in this case, 
the resistor R38-R40 should be “OPEN”. However, in  
case of using Hall IC, they should be 10kohm. 
Parameter setting 
This EVB can use for evaluation at stand-alone state. 
The AD converter parameters (assigned to the pins; 
RSA, RSB, PIX, PIZ, LAI, LAG, SFS), can be set by 
either analog potentiometers or register dividers. 
The following table shows resistor and jumper setting 
combination. 
Digital potentiometer IC*1 
*1: not supported in this version 
*2: RO3, RO6, RO11, RO16 and RO19 are for “ON INTERNAL USE”, and are kept “Open”.

TYPICAL OPERATION 
Overall tuning procedure 
1. setup fan, power supply, pulse generator (for PWM 
duty cycle input) 
2. set setting pin voltage with either potentiometer or 
resistor pair 
3. Turn-on power supply 
4. Evaluate motor 
5. Repeat from step 2, until appropriate evaluation 
result obtained 
The configuration is loaded right after power-on from 
off. Therefore, power off/on cycle is required every 
time the parameters are changed. 
Waveform example 
Below is the example waveform of LV88561JA with 
various Lead Angle Settings. 
The EVB condition is; 
  VIN=48V  
  2000RPM setting (PWM=100%) 
Lead Angle setting (LAG ; 0 deg., LAI ; 0 deg. 
Lead Angle setting (LAG ; +9.975deg., LAI ; 0 deg. 
Lead Angle setting (LAG ; -9.975deg., LAI ; 0 deg.)
