Abstract: Low cost linear Hall Effect sensors are used for determining motor shaft positions and generating voltages proportional to the motor shaft positions. The voltages from the linear Hall Effect sensors are compared to a triangle waveform and PWM signals are generated therefrom. A constant current source and constant current sink are used in the triangle waveform generator. The voltages from the linear Hall Effect sensors are adjusted to change the PWM duty cycles used to startup and vary the speed of the motor. Comparators compare the voltages from the Hall Effect sensors and product the PWM signals having duty cycles proportional to the voltage drive requirements of the motor.

Abstract: BLDC adaptive zero crossing detection compares BEMF voltages from a floating phase of a BLDC motor to a reference voltage, measures a rising time interval during a rising BEMF period when the BEMF voltages are greater than the reference voltage, and a falling time interval during a falling BEMF period when the BEMF voltages are less than the reference voltage. The reference voltage is adjusted so that the rising and falling time intervals are substantially the same, thereby causing the drive voltage to be in phase with the motor self-generated voltage, thus ensuring maximum efficiency of the BLDC motor.
Abstract translation: BLDC自适应过零检测将来自BLDC电动机的浮动相的BEMF电压与参考电压进行比较,当BEMF电压大于参考电压时,测量上升BEMF周期期间的上升时间间隔,以及下降期间的下降时间间隔 BEMF电压小于参考电压时的BEMF周期。 调整基准电压使得上升和下降时间间隔基本相同,从而使驱动电压与电动机的自发电压保持同相,从而确保BLDC电动机的最大效率。

Abstract: A pulse width modulated (PWM) trapezoidal commutation drive to a brushless direct current (BLDC) motor is sine modified so that the applied drive voltage substantially matches the induced voltage generated in the BLDC motor. The values of the cosine of the angles between −30 degrees and +30 degrees are used to modify the duty cycle of the PWM drive signal dependent upon the rotor angular positions determined from the times between the zero crossing BEMF voltages measured at the unconnected motor terminals.

Abstract: A constant current output sink or source eliminates a current limiting series resistor for a light emitting diode (LED) and maintains a constant light intensity from the LED for all operating and manufacturing variables of a digital device since the current through the LED is maintained at a constant value. The constant current output sink or source may be programmable for selection of a constant current value from a plurality of constant current values available.
