MCF8316A: How to set the active brake correctly?

$
0
0
Part Number: MCF8316A
Hello, we are debugging the active brake function, using the MCF8316A chip. Using a brushless DC motor, 24V, the MPET test resistance is 0.78 ohms, the inductance is 0.215 mH, the back EMF constant is 18 mV/HZ, max_speed = 660 Hz, one pair of poles
Problems occurred during the test, and we ask for your help.
The first phenomenon:
Configuration: ACTIVE_BRAKE_CURRENT_LIMIT = 3.0A,
ACTIVE_BRAKE_BUS_CURRENT_SLEW_RATE = 250A/S,
ACTIVE_BRAKE_MOD_INDEX_LIMIT = 80%,
ACTIVE_BRAKE_SPEED_DELTA_LIMIT = 2.5%,
ACTIVE_BRAKE_KP = 6.5,
ACTIVE_BRAKE_KI = 1,
The speed decreases from 660 Hz to 230 Hz, enabling AVS and active brake, and the test waveform is as follows:
Channel 1 is the FG waveform, and it is set with only closed-loop output; Channel 2 is the phase current waveform(100mv/1.0A).
QUESTION:
Why can the phase current reach 10A, and is not completely limited by the ACTIVE_BRAKE_CURRENT_LIMIT? (Fault overcurrent)
The second phenomenon:
Configuration: ACTIVE_BRAKE_CURRENT_LIMIT = 2A,
ACTIVE_BRAKE_BUS_CURRENT_SLEW_RATE = 100A/S,
ACTIVE_BRAKE_MOD_INDEX_LIMIT = 70%,
ACTIVE_BRAKE_SPEED_DELTA_LIMIT = 2.5%,
ACTIVE_BRAKE_KP = 1,
ACTIVE_BRAKE_KI = 0.5,
The speed decreases from 660 Hz to 230 Hz, enabling AVS and active brake, and the test waveform is as follows:
Channel 1 is the bus voltage 24V waveform; Channel 2 is the phase current waveform(100mv/1.0A).
QUESTION:
Even with AVS enabled, why would the bus voltage still overvoltage (resulting in an alarm due to exceeding 32V)?


Combined with the above parameters and phenomena, we actually tried many sets of settings, but none had a significant effect. So we would like to know:
we really want to know :
  1. What is the exact relationship between these parameters?
  2. How should these parameters be adjusted to normally use the active brake to achieve rapid speed reduction?
Looking forward to your reply.
Sincerely

DRV8245-Q1: IPROPI Sense and equation

$

Part Number: DRV8245-Q1

Hi all, 

I'm developing the board which used DRV8245. I have some questions about IPROPI usage and equation.

I've read this [How to configure IPROPI and current sensing] but still not sure and need to recheck my understanding.

7.5.8 IPROPI & ITRIP Regulation

For HTSSOP package, It said that [A_IPROPI is 6150 A/A]. Is it means that the Output current at IPROPI pin of ICs is equal to the current sensed at internal High-side FET divided by 6150 in Amp.

Then, To make IPROPI be readable by ADC, it's up to suitable Rsense. For instance,

If Motor current is in range [0, 10]A / 12-bit ADC in range[0, 3.3]V., 

Vout to ADC = Ipropi x Rs

3.3 = (10/6150) x Rs

>> Rs (implement into the board) is about 2KΩ. 

Then, to calculate read value from ADC back to Motor's current (I_motor), uses this equation:

MotCurVolt = [(ADC_raw / 4096) x 3.3]

I_motor = [MotCurVolt / 2000(Ω)] x 6150

Is my understand correct?

LM629: Does TI have newer brushed DC motor drivers that can interface with an incremental encoder or generate a motion profile?

Part Number: LM629
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV8214

e2e, 

I have used LM629M-8 device in several designs over the years to control pan-tilt heads for large lens systems. 

I like to use the LM629 as dedicated sub-processor that we command from our microcontroller, rather than merge the two roles and are looking for something new similar to LM629. I typically use DC brushed motors (with integrated gearboxes & incremental encoders for feedback) but also use brushless motors sometimes. 

 

The LM629 product page and found recommendations DRV8904 or DRV8321A but they can't interface with an incremental encoder or generate a motion profile.

 

Any suggestions or thoughts would be appreciated?

Thank you, 

Adam

MCT8329A: [GD_CONFIG1] What do Reserved bit 28 and 29 mean?

$

Part Number: MCT8329A

Dear person in charge,

What does it mean when the reserved bits 28 and 29 of GD_CONFIG1 are checked?

If the reserved bits 28 and 29 are not checked, GD_CONFID1 = 0x0006807B, but if they are checked, GD_CONFID1 = 0x000680FF. In this case, is there any error that is not mentioned in the MCT8329A datasheet? I would like to know the difference between these setting values.

I have a feeling that the presence or absence of this reserved bit changes the occurrence of the fault.

Part Number: DRV8718-Q1

hi team,

my customer use DRV8718-Q1 but they find that:

1 The DRV8718-Q1 sleeps down and then wakes up with a persistent global fault, with SDO output value: 0xE14F. OT_WD_AGD failure is constantly reported. Causes the DRV8718 to fail to operate after a wake-up.
2, with logic analyzer analysis, found that when CS is pulled high, the MCU sends the initialization instructions through SPI. However, there is no response from the DRV8718.

DRV8316C: Integration with DRV8316xEVM

Part Number: DRV8316C
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV8316,

Hi,

Could you clarify the process to convert from DRV8316REVM [with DRV8316R motor driver IC] to DRV8316CTEVM [with DRV8316CT motor driver IC]?

My understanding is that we should follow this procedure:

  • Remove the existing (default) DRV8316R motor driver IC
  • Install the new (ordered: awaiting delivery) DRV8316CT motor driver IC
  • Remove R9, R10, R11, R12 [resistors]
  • For our application, tie to AGND (not exactly sure how) R40 / R45 (VBK = 3.3 V) and R37 / R42 (PWM Mode = 6x)

I'm trying to help some students build a BMS for a solar car and was going parts shopping. The brief makes the part look like a convenient fit for their needs. There does not appear to be anything remarkable about this part, yet the datasheet is being gate-kept like it's full of nuclear launch codes. Why?

Part Number: DRV8305-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV8305

Hi TI

When I use DRV83053QPHPQ1 in my design, MCU control DRV8305 through 20KHz PWM,I found SO2 output didn't steady. 

You can see my waveform, yellow wire is SO2 output, blue wire is MOS output. you can see SO2 follow MOS output frequency.

In my design, I need a steady feedback SO2 voltage, how to fix this?

Part Number: DRV8703-Q1

Hi,expert

I want to know if my SO output waveform is correct.

CH1 is PWM ( input to IN2,500HZ,50%high),CH2 is SO output.

My 8703 SPI configuration is as follows:(write)

MainControl          0x1018;

IDRIVE_WDControl   0x18C7;

VDSControl           0x207F;

ConfigControl        0x2807;

Amplifier gain = 78;

The power supply voltage is 12V.The power supply current when the motor is running is 0.15A.I hope that's helpful in your analysis.

If you find anything wrong, will you let me know.

yours,

Huan Yin

Part Number: DRV8231A

Hi team,

I found IIPROPI peak current is recommended 3mA in DRV8231A datasheet, So as AIPROPI is 1500uA/A, Does it mean DRV8231A only can sense 2A motor current? but datasheet says output current can be up to 3.7A.

Hello, 

I want to ask if there is potential danger to destroy the mosfets when the motor is on sailing and genarating BEMF, do you have any configuration in drv8304 to protect the mosfets? 
And what about in braking mode? Exist also the same problem for the mosfets? 

Kind regards,
