The DC Motor (Brush Motor)

Mechanics for permanent magnet DC motor as follows:
Stator = stationary outside part of motor, usually made of a permanent magnet. Rotor = inner part which rotates, usually made out of the winding (electromagnet). Windings connected to a power source by means of a mechanical commutator and brushes. As rotor approaches alignment, brushes move across contacts and next winding is energized

Advantages: Low cost and easy to use Disadvantages: Noisy, limited brush life and associated buildup of residue as brushes wear down

The Brushless DC (BLDC) Motor

A normal DC (brush) motor moves by reversing the current through the windings using switch contacts, comprised by the commutator (mounted on the armature) and brushes (fixed to the motor shell). A BLDC motor does not use brushes and a commutator instead, commutation is performed electronically by switching the current with transistors/FETs. Rotor position is usually sensed by HallEffect sensors, which sense the magnetic field of the rotating magnets and generate feedback signals. BLDC motors have several phases (coils). Most common motors are 3-phase motors (3 sets of windings), as shown to the right. This would be a 2-pole motor the magnet has 2 poles (N and S) and 3 windings (phases). Advantages: Long life, low noise, higher power possible compared to brush motors Disadvantages: Higher cost, more complex drive electronics

The Stepper Motor

Provides a higher degree of control than can be obtained if using a DC or brushless DC motor, without the use of closed loop control
Stator: Usually made of the electromagnet Rotor: Consists of a permanent magnet teethed structure Polarizing the stator allows for the rotor to lock position. By carefully sequencing the stator polarization, rate of stepping and direction can be controlled Magnetic field is generated with a single current level causing the rotor to lock into a predetermined position Magnetic fields are generated with multiple current levels creating a gradient of push/pull which in turn divide a full step into multiple smaller steps (referred to as microsteps)

DC / BLDC Motor vs. Stepper Motor

N

DC Motor or BLDC motor

Current Usage
Uses required current as determined by the load. Current control may or may not be needed, depending on motor characteristics. Speed is controlled by modulating the voltage: The higher the voltage, the faster the rotor rotates. Closed loop feedback is needed for accurate speed control. For position control, some means to obtain rotation information is needed. Closed loop is needed.

Stepper Motor
A Stepper motor will use all the current as determined by its winding resistance, whether the shaft is loaded or not. Current control is normally needed. Speed is controlled by increasing step rate frequency, not voltage magnitude. Voltage magnitude does define rate of charge. For position control, the supplied stepping rate can be used with accuracy. There is no need for closed loop.

Current Flow Turning the motor

Current Recirculation: Fast Decay Mode

In fast decay mode, any current flowing through the motor winding will be working against the full supply voltage, plus two diode drops. Current decays quickly. This mode provides little or no dynamic braking effect on the motor rotor; rotor coasts freely.

Current Recirculation: Slow Decay Mode

Current recirculates through power MOSFETs presenting a resistive path to the current Current decays slower (directly proportional to the LR) Since a short is basically applied to the motor terminals, the Back EMF collapses and the motor stops very quickly. Referred to as braking.

Logic controls all aspects of four FET switching. ENABLE signal selects whether the entire H Bridge is turned ON or OFF. PHASE signal selects whether the H Bridge is conducting from side A to side B or vice versa. A single PWM signal can control speed and/or direction. Only one Inductive load can be driven.

IN1/IN2 Interface

Each Half H Bridge can be controlled independently. Can be utilized to drive two inductive loads without current control. Per example, two solenoids can be driven with a single H Bridge. Requires 2 PWM sources for speed control of a DC motor.

Over Current Protection (OCP)

POOF!

With OCP: Current is limited, then driver turns off

IOCP

TIME T OCP

In the event of a fault in the motor or wiring, such as a short to ground, power, or across the winding, current in the H-bridge can rapidly increase If this current is not limited, damage to the device will occur OCP combines an analog current limit with a shutdown function that protects the device from such faults Each power FET is protected individually, so is protected against shorts to any other signal All TI motor drivers have an OCP function

Thermal Shutdown
In order to avoid die temperature to reach hazardous levels, the system continuously monitors temperature. Multiple thermal sensors are placed across the die. When temperature reaches a predetermined temperature, the H Bridge is disabled. A Thermal Shutdown (TSD) event has occurred.

Critical questions
1. Which type of motor?
Stepper, Brushed DC or 3-phase (BLDC, PMSM, etc.).

2. Which voltage and current rating?

Scalable family with integrated MOSFETs for up to 52.5V and 24A. For additional flexibility and higher power, some devices are 60V pre-drivers for external MOSFETs.

3. What kind of interface / on-chip intelligence?

PWM or IN1/IN2 i/f: Typically used by customers who want to implement their own Motor Control algorithms on a C2000/Stellaris/etc. Serial, Phase/Enable or Indexer i/f: Easy to use on-chip control logic, typically used by customers with 3/22/2011 other core competences than Motor Control.

Battery-powered motors
Typical alkaline C-cells start out at a terminal voltage of 1.5V per cell, and are considered completely discharged at 0.8V/cell The speed of a DC motor is roughly proportional to the voltage applied so the speed of a motor running from a nearly dead alkaline cells would drop to nearly half of the speed it ran with fresh batteries In addition the internal resistance increases as the battery discharges, to load (torque) applied to the motor makes the speed drop even larger To make product performance acceptable, operation must be stopped before the battery is fully discharged, leaving unused energy in the battery

Alkaline C-cell voltage vs. operation time

Short battery life = unhappy customer!

Extending run time

To extend run time at constant motor speed, voltage to the motor must be made constant as the battery voltage drops The standard way to accomplish this is with a voltage regulator
Linear voltage regulators are not very expensive, but waste battery power by dropping the voltage and dissipating heat the result may be no improvement in battery life! Switching regulators dont waste battery energy, but have higher cost, adding not only an IC but also inductors and capacitors

Both solutions add cost and additional PCB area!

Long battery life = happy customer! but added cost = unhappy manufacturer!

The ideal solution

The best solution would be:
Able to maintain motor speed with falling battery voltage Add no parts Add no cost

This is what the DRV8830 & DRV8832 are designed to do! The DRV8830/32 act like buck switching regulators, except they integrate the regulation circuitry into the motor driver Unlike a buck regulator, no additional inductor or capacitor is needed because the motor itself is an inductor, able to integrate the PWM current The DRV8830/32 is priced comparably to other simple DC motor driver parts without regulation

Everybody is happy!

This can be used to sense when a mechanism is stalled or hits a stop, saving the cost of a limit switch or other feedback

The DRV8830 substitutes a serial I2C interface for the parallel interface of the DRV8832, and includes an internal DAC for speed control

Microstepping
By varying the current through the windings, stepper motor rotation can be controlled to less than a full step How does it work?
1 Each Full Step is divided into multiple microsteps by 2 embedding a waveform with multiple levels of reference voltage (i.e. sine, triangular, rhomboid, etc) 3 which generates a bipolar current waveform with multiple current levels (i.e. multiple degrees of magnetic field strength)

1 Step PHASE A 1 PHASE B Vref A 2 Vref B Current A 3 Current B

Microstepping Methods
Microstepping can be accomplished by varying the reference voltage in a current-controlled driver to vary the output current
A microcontroller with two DACs can be used to accomplish this

Alternatively, a stepper motor controller with a built-in indexer can be used.

Indexer parts, like the DRV8811, have a counter and DAC inside, so they only require a step and direction input
