RE: Drive DC brushes recommendation


Drive DC brushes recommendation

$

We now have a new project that wants to drive a DC brushed motor. The rated voltage of the motor is 75V, and the rated current is 1.6A.

Is there a corresponding drive on this side of TI to recommend it?

Hey Rick,

Thanks for your quick reply! Being familiar with another chip manufacturer's products and now switching to TI for this project is daunting to say. I will get the boards on order and I assume after reading the datasheets that the automotive version of the DRV8305 is for the CPU and motor almost the same. I will need the automotive version as this is a requirement but will first see if we can get things spinning with the regular versions. Once we have a base settings and code that looks OK and the motor does what we want, I will switch over to all automotive grade components and do the board design from there after confirming they work as planned.

Downloading software now and instructions/how-to's etc. Will be back most likely with more questions and updates.

Jan

RE: DRV11873: Cut-out at certain duty cycles - why?

Brian-

    We aren't totally committed, but we are pretty invested at this point. Is there any data I can collect that might help you troubleshoot this problem?

    Are there other benefits to moving to the DRV10975? Efficiency, etc? I really don't want to move to a new part right before we move in to production, but if this is going to be an issue moving forward and there are  other compelling reasons to move to this new part, it may be worth it.

    Right now my workaround is to both dither around a set point and increment duty cycle if a lock is received (interrupt input). Duty cycle has to increase by 3% (from 82 to 85) to get out of the false lock region. Certainly seems like a lot given the documentation. 

    Rapid feedback/help appreciated.

Need some help deciding on parts and EV boards but stuck behind NDA

Hello everybody,

I am working on a new BLDC motor project and need some help picking EV boards to get started. I cannot share too much besides some general info due to the NDA.

Project is automotive, 12V BLDC motor and controller design. 

Could somebody from TI contact me and help me getting started before I buy all the EV boards available?

Thanks,

JB

Thank you for your reply!
We will check it with your suggestion.

DRV8711: Predriver Fault(XPDF) condtion

Part Number: DRV8711

Hi all

Would you mind if we ask DRV8711?
We would like to confirm Predriver Fault(XPDF) Indexer mode and PWM mode.

<PWM mode>
In PWM mode, if excessive current is detected on the gate drive outputs (which would be indicative of a failed/shorted output FET or PCB fault),
->Acoording to short between XOUT1(or XOUT2) and GND, we guess that it is possible to confirm.

<Indexer mode>
The datasheet shows "When in indexer mode, both H-bridges are disabled, the xPDF bit in the STATUS register is set, and the FAULTn pin is driven low."
As the condition of occurence, is it the same as PWM mode? short between XOUT1(or XOUT2) and GND??

Kind regards,

Hirotaka Matsumoto

Hello Eric,

I have the same problem OS is WIN10 64-bit. I have the same error messages if I want to write parameters to the DRV10987 EEPROM.

I have a error message if I start the GUI:

Do you have the same message?

Hi Cole,

Thank you very much for your helpful response. Wow, I can't believe that I didn't realize that the Pole textbox is editable. Oops. I've updated the number of poles and the GUI calculated RPM is now correct. However, using the equation you provided, which is what I was using previously, is giving me a different RPM output than what's displayed. (60*177.1)/4 = 2656.5RPM. 2577.32RPM is actually correct based on my flow rate testing.

Hi Eric,

I had installed the "LVRTE2014f2std.exe" and also I rebooted the PC before using the GUI.

I have looked with my scope on the I²C clock and data line everything seem to be normal.

RE: DRV8307: DRV8307 is not working at Duty cycle below 10%

Hello Adesh,

Can you please clarify how the DRV8307 fails to work below 10% duty cycle? Do the gate outputs show a 10% duty cycle even though your PWM input is 5%? Or, do you see 10% duty cycle on the 1/2 H-bridge outputs of the FETs.

If you could please send a scope shot showing the failure, it can help me debug your issue. I would like to your PWM signal, the voltage of one of the gate drive outputs of the DRV8307, and the voltage of the corresponding FET output.

Part Number: DRV8307

Hello,

I am testing the BLDC motor part no. B773DA3C428D using DRV8307. Its working fine at all duty cycles above around 10%. But at Lower than 10%, it is failed to work. I am not able to understand the issue. PWM frequency was 20KHz. I also tried to increase the PWM frequency so as to check whether there is any minimum Ton required for the IC, but it still shows the same behaviour of not being able to work below 10%. Please guide me to solve this issue. We need this driver to get operated from 0% to 100% with 12-bit resolution i.e. 4096 steps(which is maximum bits available in IC).

DRV595EVM: The output voltage issue for DRV595EVM

$

Part Number: DRV595EVM

Hi team,

The customer has 4 DRV595EVM boards. He uses 4 different input voltages, there are 4 different output voltages.

All EVM boards are default setting. Please check the attach for the test result. 

The customer thinks only EVM4 is fine. And the red line test values are incorrect. 

For the EVM1, when +IN=3.3V/IN=3.3V, it should output 0V. But the test result is 10.63V.

When +IN=0V/-IN=3.3V, it should output -10.63V. But there is no output for the test reslut.

For the EVM2, when +IN=3.3V/IN=3.3V, it should output 0V. But the test result is 10.63V.

For the EVM3, when +IN=3.3V/IN=3.3V, it should output 0V. But the test result is 10.63V and it is the positive output.

Are  the customer's test results and the opinions correct?  Would you provide some suggestion for the customer's tests.

Best Wishes,

Hey Eric,

I know its been awhile and I thought it would be good to keep you in the loop.

At this point, we have concerns that the device may be damaged or shipped as non-functioning. Can you please use some sort of voltage probe or DMM and tell me what the voltages on VREG, 1P8V, and 3P3V? Some vias should be clearly labeled at P2 (left side of the board) .

In parallel, I've ordered some DRV10987EVMs from our shipment center to try and recreate the problem you're seeing here. I'll keep you updated with my findings.

Thank you for your patience.

Best,

Hi Micky,
Could you please let me know the difference between the four EVM's? The result should be the same and repeatable on the normal EVM's. Is there any rework or modification on the board?
Best regards,
Shawn Zheng
