Description of LV8829LFQA
1. Output Drive Circuit
This IC adopts a direct PWM drive method to reduce power loss in the output. It regulates the drive force of
the motor by changing the output on duty. The output PWM switching is performed by the upper-side output
transistor.
The current regeneration route during the normal PWMOFF passes through the parasitic diode of the output
DMOS. This IC performs synchronous rectification, and is intended to reduce heat generation compared to
diode regeneration.
2. Current Limiter Circuit
The current limiter circuit limits the output current peak value to a level determined by the equation I =
VRF/Rf (VRF = 0.21V (typical), Rf: current detection resistor). This circuit suppresses the output current by
reducing the output on duty.
The current limiter circuit has an operation delay (approx. 700ns) to detect reverse recovery current flowing
in the diode due to the PWM operation, and prevent a malfunction of the current limiting operation. If the coil
resistance of the motor is small, or the inductance is low, the current at startup (the state in which there is no
back electromotive force generated in the motor) will change rapidly. As a result, the operation delay may
sometimes cause the current limiting operation to take place at a value above the set current. In such a case,
it is necessary to set the current limit value while taking into consideration the increase in current due to the
delay.
* Regarding the PWM frequency in the current limiter circuit
The PWM frequency in the current limiter circuit is determined by the internal reference oscillator, and is
approximately 50 kHz.
10/19
LV8829LFQA Application Note
3. Speed control method
Pulses are input to the PWMIN pin, and the output can be controlled by varying the duty cycle of these
pulses.
When a low-level input voltage is applied to the PWMIN pin, the output at the PWM side (upper side) is set to
ON.
When a high-level input voltage is applied to the PWMIN pin, the output at the PWM side (upper side) is set
to OFF.
If it is necessary to input pulses using inverted logic, this can be done by adding an external transistor (NPN).
When the input to the PWMIN pin remains high-level for a certain period, the IC judges that the duty is 0%,
causing the CSD circuit count to be reset and the output from the HB pin to become low level.
4. Constraint Protection Circuit
The LV8829LFQA includes a constraint protection circuit for protecting the IC and the motor in a motor
constraint mode.
This circuit operates when the motor is in an operation condition and the Hall signal does not switch over for
a certain period. Note that while this constraint protection is operating, the upper-side output transistor will be
OFF.
Time setting is performed according to the capacitance of the capacitor connected to the CSD pin.
Set time (s)  90  C (F)
When a 0.022F capacitor is connected, the protection time becomes approximately 2.0 seconds. The set
time must be selected to a value that provides adequate margin with respect to the motor startup time.
Conditions for releasing the constraint protection state:
• When the S/S pin is in a STOP state
 Protection released and count reset(Initial reset)
• When the F/R pin is switched
 Protection released and count reset
• When 0% duty is detected at the PWMIN pin input  Protection released and count reset
• When low-voltage condition is detected
 Protection released and count reset (Initial reset)
(• When TSD condition is detected
 Stop counting)
The CSD pin also functions as the initial reset pulse generation pin. If it is connected to ground, the logic
circuit will go into a reset state, preventing speed control from taking place. Consequently, when not using
constraint protection, connect a resistor of approximately 220k and a capacitor of about 4700pF in parallel
to ground.
5. Low-voltage Protection Circuit
The LV8829LFQA incorporates a comparator that uses the band gap voltage as the reference. The circuit
monitors the voltage at the VREG pin (5V) while the S/S pin is low and activates the protection circuit when
the voltage at the VREG pin falls below 4.15V (typ.).
When this happens, the state of the output transistors for all phases set to OFF.
In order to ensure that the IC does not exhibit any unstable behavior when the VREG voltage has increased
or decreased around 4.15V, a hysteresis of 0.3V (typ.) is provided. As a result, when the VREG voltage
recovers to 4.45V (typ.) after the low-voltage protection circuit has been activated, all output transistors
return to their operating state.
6. Thermal shutdown Circuit
When the IC junction temperature exceeds 165°C (design target value), the thermal shutdown circuit is
activated, and all the output transistors are set to OFF.
When the IC junction temperature goes below the hysteresis temperature of 30°C (design target value) or
more, all the output transistors return to their operating state.
However, as the thermal shutdown circuit is activated only when the junction temperature of the IC has
exceeded the rating, its activation does not constitute a guarantee that the product that incorporates this
circuit will be protected from damage or destruction.
7. Hall Input Signal
A pulse input with the amplitude in excess of the hysteresis (35mV maximum) is required for the Hall inputs.
It is desirable that the amplitude of the Hall input signal be 100mVp-p or more in consideration of the effect of
noise and phase displacement.
If disturbances to the output waveform (during phase switching) occur due to noise, connect a capacitor
between the Hall input pins to prevent such disturbances. In the constraint protection circuit, the Hall input is
utilized as a judgment signal. Although the circuit ignores a certain amount of noise, caution is necessary.
If all three phases of the Hall input signal go to the same input state (HHH or LLL), the outputs are all set to
the OFF state.
11/19
LV8829LFQA Application Note
If the Hall IC is used, fixing one side of the inputs (either the + or – side) at a voltage within the
common-mode input voltage range (between 0.3V and VREG-1.7V) allows the other input side to be used
as an input over the 0V to VREG range.
(1)
 Method of connecting Hall elements
VCC
Type (1) connection (three Hall elements connected in series)
Advantages
HB
 Because the current flowing in Hall elements can be shared by
3V Constant-voltage Output
connecting the Hall elements in series, the current consumption is
less than that of a parallel-connected arrangement.
 The use of a current limiting resistor can be eliminated.
 Fluctuations of amplitude with temperature are reduced.
Disadvantages
 Because only 1V can be applied to one Hall device, there is a
possibility that adequate amplitude cannot be obtained.
 The current flowing in the Hall elements varies with temperature.
 HALL element unevenness (input resistance in particular) is easy
to influence the amplitude.
(2)
Type (2) connection (three Hall elements connected in parallel)
Advantages
 The current flowing in the Hall elements can be determined by the
current limiting resistor.
 The voltage applied to the Hall elements can be varied, enabling
adequate amplitude to be obtained.
Disadvantages
 Because it is necessary to supply current separately to each Hall
element, the current consumption becomes large.
 A current limiting resistor is necessary.
 The amplitude varies with temperature.


HB pin
The HB pin is used for cutting off the current flowing in the Hall elements during standby (for saving
electricity).
The output from the HB pin is set to OFF in the following cases.
 When the S/S pin is in a STOP state
 When 0% duty is detected at the PWMIN pin input
8. Power Saving Circuit (Start/Stop circuit)
To save power when the LV8829LFQA is in the stop state, most of the circuit is stopped, aiming at reducing
current consumption. If the Hall bias pin is used, the current consumption in the power-saving mode will be
approximately 700A. Even in the power-saving mode, a 5V regulator voltage is output. Also, in the
power-saving mode, the IC is in a short break state. (lower-side shorted)
9. Power Supply Stabilization
This IC generates a large output current, and employs a switching drive method, so the power supply line
level can be disturbed easily. For this reason, it is necessary to connect a capacitor (electrolytic) of sufficient
capacitance between the VCC pin and ground to ensure a stable voltage. Connect the ground side of the
capacitor to the PGND pin, which is the power ground, as close as possible to the pin. If it is not possible to
connect a capacitor of sufficiently large capacitance close to the pin, connect a ceramic capacitor of
approximately 0.1F to the vicinity of the pin.
If diodes are inserted in the power supply line to prevent IC destruction resulting from reverse-connecting the
power supply, the power supply lines are even more easily disrupted. And even larger capacitor is required.
10. VREG Stabilization
To stabilize the VREG voltage, which is the power supply for the control circuit, connect a capacitor of 0.1F
or larger.
Connect the ground of this capacitor as close as possible to the control block ground (SGND pin) of the IC.

LV8829LFQA Application Note
11. Charge pump Circuit
The voltage is stepped-up by the charge pump circuit, causing the gate voltage of the upper-side output FET
to be generated. The voltage is stepped-up by capacitor CP connected between pins CP1 and CP2, causing
charge to accumulate in capacitor CG connected between pins VG and VCC. The capacitance of CP and
CG must always satisfy the following relationship.
CG  4  CP
Charging and discharging of capacitor CP take place based on a frequency of 100k Hz. When the
capacitance of capacitor CP is large, the current supply capability of power supply VG will increase.
However, if the capacitance is too large, the charging and discharging operations will be insufficient. The
larger the capacitance of capacitor CG, the more stable voltage VG will become. However, if the
capacitance is made too large, the period during which voltage VG is generated when the power is switched
ON will become long, so caution is necessary.
The capacitance settings of CP and CG should be the following.
CP = 0.01F
CG = 0.1F

13. Metal part at the rear of the IC
The metal part at the rear of the IC (exposed die-pad) constitutes the sub ground of the IC, so connect it to
the control ground (SGND pin) and power ground pin (PGND) at points close to the IC.
14. Notes on Using the IC
This IC performs synchronous rectification in order to achieve high-efficiency drive.
The synchronous rectification operation reduces the output transistor loss so it has the effect of reducing
heat generation and improving efficiency.
However, the synchronous rectification operation may cause the supply voltage to rise depending on the
conditions under which the IC is used, such as:
 When the output duty ratio has suddenly decreased
 When the PWM input frequency is low, etc.
Protective measures must be taken to ensure that the maximum ratings are not exceeded even when the
supply voltage has risen. These measures include:
 Appropriate selection of the capacitance of the capacitor inserted between the power supply and the
ground
 Insertion of a zener diode between the power supply and the ground

Operation Guide
 Connect a 3-phase Blush less DC motor with MOTOR CONNECTOR1 and MOTOR CONNECTOR2
or P7-12.
(When we provide the Evaluation Board, it is mounted periferal parts for Hall ICs.
Because the BLDC motor that we provide is builtin Hall ICs.
When you drive the BLDC with Hall elements, please remove R7-14, C10-12 and mount R3, C7-9,
connect + terminal of the Hall elements to P6. Refer to P.11-12 for detail.
When you control LV8829LFQA by your DSP, please remove the Daughter Board and input signals to
P2-5.)
 Please start up the system in following procedure.
1. Plug an USB cable into the Daughter Board.
2. Start up the GUI for LV8829LFQA.
3. Apply input voltage to the terminal P1 “VCC”.
Don’t apply voltage before plugging USB into the Daughter Board and starting the GUI.
4. Input drive signals by GUI.
 When you unplug the daughter board, turn “VCC” off at first.
The points of attention to design applications
 Do not exceed the absolute maximum ratings under no circumstance.
 VCC, and each OUT, where large current flows should be laid out as fat and short as possible.
 The metal part at the rear of the IC (exposed die-pad) constitutes the sub ground of the IC, so connect
it to the control ground (SGND pin) and power ground pin (PGND) at points close to the IC.
 VCC bypass capacitor, especially Ceramic multilayer Capacitor should be mounted as near as
possible to VCC pin of LV8829LFQA.
 VREG should be used in the IC as reference voltage. Capacitor should be connected between VREG
pin and GND to stabilize VREG. Therefore, the capacitor should be mounted as near as possible to
VREG pin.
 The impedance of the island of GND needs to be as low as possible by making through-holes, for
example.
 We recommend that the GND lines to connect a motor and the GND area of MCUs are laid out
independently and single-point-grounded at VM bypass capacitor
 VREG can not be recommended to use for peripheral circuits because their output voltage are not so
high in precision.
