MOTOR CONTROLLER
4413
(315) 701-6751
FEATURES:
28V/160A Brushless DC motor control capability.
28V/90A Synchronous Boost Generator capability.
Fully isolated microprocessor control and gate drive circuitry.
Rugged open frame PC Board construction with ample area for heat sinking.
DESCRIPTION:
The MSK 4413 is a dual mode Brushless DC Motor controller providing both motor drive capability and dc power
generation capability. It utilizes output phase current sensing as part of a current feedback system for torque control in
the motor control mode. In generator mode the bus voltage is sensed and processed then used to set the current control
loop. Current control provides reverse torque on the motor, using regeneration/Back EMF as a source for boost mode
power generation. Motor drive mode is selected by applying the V+ supply to a pin on the J1 connector. Generator mode
is selected by applying the V+ supply to a pin on the J1 connector as well.

APPLICATION NOTES
MSK 4413 CONNECTION DESCRIPTIONS
POWER CONNECTIOS:
OPERATION
V+ BUS - Is the power connection to the bus. The external
wiring to this connection should be sized according to the RMS
current required by the motor. Additional capacitance will be
required by many applications and should be in the form of low
ESR film capacitors.
Start mode provides a motor with up to 9000 watts of power to
turn over a piston engine with a preprogrammed torque level.
The torque is maintained by a digital current control loop using
a PID algorithm. Current is sensed on phase A and B providing
the necessary feedback input to the control processor thus adjusting the PWM duty cycle of the power bridge. When initially
activated a soft start period occurs ramping the voltage up to the
phase outputs until the required torque is reached at which point
the torque is maintained.
V+ RTN - Is the power return connection to the bus. As with
the V+ connection the external wiring to this connection should
be sized according to the RMS current required by the motor.
Any additional bulk capacitance in the form of low ESR film
capacitors should be connected as close as possible to this connection.
Generator mode operates by using synchronous rectification and
boost modulation of the power bridge to supply and maintain
the bus at a selected voltage from 24 volts up to 28 volts. An
analog error amplifier processes the bus voltage and provides an
error signal to the control processor. This analog error signal is
converted to a digital error signal by the processor's Analog to
Digital Converter (ADC). The ADC output is then applied to the
control input of the digital current control loop PID algorithm to
determine the correct PWM duty cycle of the power bridge.
L1 A PHASE OUT, L2 B PHASE OUT, L3 C PHASE OUT - Are
the connections to the motor phase windings. The wires connected to these outputs should be sized to the current requirements of the motor. Shorts from these connections to either V+
or V+RTN should be avoided as there is no short circuit protection, thus the MOSFET bridge will be damaged under these circumstances.
To protect a connected battery or other bias source from regenerative voltage on the bus a blocking diode is required. The diode should be rated for 300 Amps and 40 volts.
CONTROL CONNECTIONS, 26 PIN HEADER:
1, 5, 6, 7, 9, 20, 22, 24, 26 GROUND - Are connected to the
V+ RTN.
Proper managment of heat dissipation from the power bridge will
allow sustained operation of both modes. An aluminum plate
attached at the bottom of the assembly and in physical contact
with the power bridge module gives flexibility in selecting the
required heat sink arrangement. It can be removed for drilling
and/or milling. Some arrangement of active cooling is necessary
when operating at high power levels and extended periods.
3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 NC - Are unused
and unconnected pins.
2 START - This connection is used to put the MSK 4413 into
START MODE and apply power to the connected motor. V+ is
applied to this pin to select this mode. This can be accomplished
by a manual switch or some type of controlled relay. This connection drives the input LED of an opto-coupler through a current limiting resistor of value 2500 ohms rated for 1/2 watt. If
V+ is a nominal 28 volts the current drawn will be around 11
milliamps.
4 GEN - This connection is used to put the MSK 4413 into
GENERATOR MODE and manage power from the connected
motor as it is being spun and place that power onto the bus
connection. V+ is applied to this pin to select this mode. As
with the START pin this can be done with a manual switch or
some type of controlled relay. This connection drives the input
LED of an opto-coupler through a current limiting resistor of value
2500 ohms rated for 1/2 watt. If V+ is a nominal 28 volts the
current drawn will be around 11 milliamps.
8 +12V - This output is intended to supply the connected motor phase hall sensors. The return connection should be GROUND,
pin 9.5 milliamps is the maximum supply current.
21 HALL A, 25 HALL B, 23 HALL C - These are the inputs for
the motor phase hall sensors. Each one is connected to the input
of an opto-coupler through a 1200 ohm, 1 watt resistor. Source
current is around 10 milliamps.
