Providing control and drive of the voice coil motor used for head
positioning in 5 V disk drive applications, the A8936C— is a full-bridge
driver which can be configured so that its output current is a direct
function of an externally applied control voltage or current. This linear
current control function is supplemented by additional circuitry to
protect the heads and the data disk during system failure or normal
system shutdown. An under- or over-velocity sense disables the
system in a controlled sequence if a fault condition occurs.

The two ±500 mA MOS driver outputs provide very low saturation
voltage and minimal power dissipation. Additional headroom is
achieved by the sense-FET structure eliminating the need for an
external current-sense resistor. Thermal protection and under-voltage
lockout disables the system in a controlled sequence if a fault condition occurs.

† Fault conditions that produce excessive
junction temperature will activate device thermal
shutdown circuitry. These conditions can be
tolerated, but should be avoided.
Output current rating may be restricted to a value
determined by system concerns and factors.
These include: system duty cycle and timing,
ambient temperature, and use of any heatsinking
and/or forced cooling. For reliable operation the
specified maximum junction temperature should
not be exceeded.

VOICE COIL MOTOR DRIVER
DEVICE
DESCRIPTION
Current Amplifier. The A8936CJT and A8936CLW
voice coil motor drivers feature a wide transconductance
bandwidth and no measurable crossover distortion. The
transconductance gain is user selectable:
gm =
Ai
Rgm
(Equation 1)
where Ai is either 2000 (H GAIN = Low) or 8000 (H GAIN
= High)
The error amplifier’s bandwidth and load compensation zero are set utilizing external resistor and capacitor
feedback components around the amplifier.
The actuator main loop compensation can be set by
applying a square wave and adjusting R Z and CZ for
optimum response.
Current and Voltage Sensing. The load current is
sensed internally. Two auxiliary amplifiers are also
included to allow various control functions to be implemented. The first of these amplifiers provides a voltage
output that is proportional to the load current:
V SENS =
RS ILOAD
AiL
(Equation 2)
The second auxiliary amplifier may be used in
conjunction with the first to provide a closed-loop velocity
control system for the actuator arm during a controlled
retract for head parking.
Under- & Over-Velocity Fault. For a constant load,
motor current (ILOAD) and therefore VSENS are proportional
to motor velocity. VSENS is amplified by the uncommitted
amplifier and compared against the internal 2 V reference and used to indicate a velocity fault if the voltage is
greater than a nominal ±0.75 V from the 2 V reference.
EN VEL FLT may be tied to the FAULT terminal to reset
the velocity fault after a tripout.
Retract and Brake. A retract-brake sequence is initiated
on receiving a fault indication from the internal thermal
shutdown (TSD), under-voltage lockout (UVLO), the
under- or over-velocity fault, or an externally applied logic
High at the RETRACT input.
A
If the velocity control scheme is implemented, the
head can be retracted under the full control of INPUT in
conjunction with OUTSW back-EMF voltage if no fault
condition exists. If a fault condition were to occur however, the retract velocity would be controlled by applying a
constant user-defined voltage across the load:
V RET-SET =
2 R8
1000 + R7 + R8
where R7 + R8 >> 1000 Ω.
When the sequence is operated, the output voltage is
forced to approximately VRET-SET to retract the heads, and
then a fault command (“brake”) is sent to the spindlemotor driver. The user determines the total time for the
retract sequence, before the spindle brake is enabled, by
the choice of an external resistor and capacitor at the
FAULT output.
Power for the retract function is provided by the
rectified back EMF of the spindle motor by way of the
VBEMF terminal. The A8936CJT/CLW will perform the
retract function under low supply conditions (nominally
down to 2 V). Operation down to almost 0 V requires an
energy-storage capacitor at the VFLT terminal.
Protective Features. The A8936CJT/CLW has a number
of protective features incorporated into the design.
Under-voltage lockout provides system protection in the
event of reduced primary supply voltages. The undervoltage trip point is internally set at approximately 4.3 V.
It can be user-defined with an external resistor voltage
divider:
UVTRIP =
2 (R5 + R 6)
R6
(Equation 4)
where R5 + R6 << 200 kΩ.
Thermal shutdown circuitry is included to protect the
device from excessive junction temperature. It is only
intended to protect the chip from catastrophic failures due
to excessive junction temperature.
