Hi Luis,
I checked it using oscilloscope, the same.
After the 40% PWM, the error pin goes Low.
Charge pump voltage to the Mosfets goes zero.
When the stops, the current and voltage both goes zero.
After this the driver will not recover automatically when the PWM goes below 40%. In order to get back the driver running the enable should go low and then High.
I noticed the following today with Less than 40% PWM.
- I have disabled the current Limit by connecting the VDS to DVDD( DVDD is showing 3.25VDC).
- With the above setting the motor is not consuming the current more than 1Amps.
- When the motor is running the motors shaft can be stopped by hand. during this motor consumes about 0.9 Amps.
- The motor continue to run when the shaft is left free.
- During the above process the PWM from the controller to
DRV8323 is continuously provided and is not stopped.
- But the charge pump from
DRV8323 goes Zero.
My feeling is the PWM problem will be resolved if we can remove the current limit.
Please let me have your views and solution on the above.
Best Regards.
