Functional Description
1. Sensorless Drive
On receipt of PWM signal start instruction turn-in signal for forcible commutation (commutation
irrespective of the motor’s rotor position) is output and the motor starts to rotate. The motor’s rotation
causes induced voltage on winding wire pin for each phase.
When signals indicating positive or negative for pin voltage (including induced voltage) for each phase
are input on respective positional signal input pin, the turn-on signal for forcible commutation is
automatically switched to turn-on signal for positional signal (induced voltage).
Thereafter turn-on signal is formed according to the induced voltage contained in the pin voltage so as to
drive the brushless DC motor.
2. Starting commutation frequency
The forcible commutation frequency at the time of start is determined by the resonator’s frequency and
the number of counter bit (within the IC).
Starting commutation frequency f
The forcible commutation frequency at the time of start can be adjusted using inertia of the motor and
load.
• The forcible commutation frequency should be set higher as the number of magnetic poles increases.
• The forcible commutation frequency should be set lower as the inertia of the load increases.
3. PWM Control
PWM signal can be reflected in turn-on signal by supplying PWM signal from external sources.
The frequency of the PWM signal shoud be set adequately high with regard to the electrical frequency of
the motor and in accordance to the switching characteristics of the drive circuit.
Because positional detection is performed in synchronization with the falling edges of PWM signal,
positional detection cannot be performed with 0% duty or 100% duty.
