RE: Motor Driver for 3 phase motor
Hi Diederik, The BG3612 EC motor needs the phases to be changed based on the hall inputs. A brushed dc driver with a full bridge or a BLDC driver with three half bridges can perform this function....

Hi,I just disassembled my motor and found out there is a PCB that contains a RLC circuit that goes to the brushes. This seems to be some type of EMI suppression. I suppose I will need to figure out...

Rick,Thank you for your response. Yes, I've looked at DRV8711. In fact, this IC is my second choice and it's not the first one only because of the need for external bridges. We will have to provide of...

I missed one of the mods in the list below the schematic: R2 is now 6.8K and R3 is now 2.0K. This gives me 1.5A max current.

Hi Michael, We will have to provide of up to 5+ amps of motor current and it's my concern that 8711's output capabilities might be somewhat dicey to directly drive gates of higher power FETs with Ciss...

Rick,Thank you for clarifying that staff for me. I missed it entirely that I would need two independent winding current controls in microstepping mode. And 8711 device's ability to drive a typical Ciss...

Hello jcarter, Is your revB layout design very similar to your revA? If it is, then please isolate the 3rd device and see if you can successfully run the two motors from revA. If you are not successful...

Hello Luis, The Rev B design is similar to the Rev A except that on the Rev A the DRV8825 devices are on the Pololu carrier board rather than on my board as mentioned. For the testing thus far I only...

Hello jcarter, Thank you for the clarification. I see the thermal PAD which connects to the GND is missing, it is recommended to have that thermal Pad to remove heat. One thing we can try is to lower...
