LB1823
Power Brushless Motor Predriver IC
for OA Applications
Overview
Package Dimensions
The LB1823 is a predriver IC developed for driving
power brushless motors in office automation applications.
A motor driver circuit with the desired output power
(current and voltage) can be constructed by attaching
either a driver array or discrete components at the output.
The LB1823 output supports direct PWM drive and thus
allows the implementation of low-loss drive circuits.
Additionally, the LB1823 includes several associated
circuits, such as a speed control circuit, and FG amplifier,
and an integrating amplifier, on chip.

Notes on LB1823 Operation and External Components
1. Speed control circuit
The LB1823 uses a speed discriminator circuit and a PLL circuit in combination for speed control. The speed
discriminator generates an error output once every two FG periods using a charge pump technique. The PLL circuit
generates a phase error output once every FG period, also using a charge pump technique. By using a speed
discriminator circuit and a PLL circuit together, the LB1823 can suppress speed variations better than earlier systems
that only used a speed discriminator for speed control when used with motors faced with large load variations. Since
the following formula determines the FG servo frequency, the motor speed is set by the number of FG pulses and the
crystal oscillator frequency.
fFG (servo) = fOSC/8192
fOSC: Crystal oscillator frequency
2. Direct PWM drive
This IC adopts a direct PWM drive technique to minimize power loss in the outputs. The output transistors are
always saturated when on, and the motor drive power is adjusted by changing the duty with which the outputs are on.
Since the upper side transistors switch the outputs, Schottky, fast recovery, or similar diodes must be inserted
between OUT and ground (diodes D1, D2 and D3). (This is because through currents will flow in the upper side
transistors at the instant they turn on if these diodes do not have a short reverse recovery time.) Ordinary rectifying
diodes can be used between OUT and VCC. Transistors with no parasitic diodes must be used for the output lower
side transistors. If these transistors include parasitic diodes, through currents will flow due to their reverse recovery
time, even if Schottky diodes are used for D1, D2 and D3.
3. Current limiter circuit
The current limiter circuit operates (to limit the peak current) at a current determined by the formula I = 0.5/Rf
(where Rf = R10). The limiting operation suppresses the current by reducing the on duty. No phase compensation
capacitor is required.
No. 4263-7/11
LB1823
4. Speed lock range
The speed lock range is ±6.25% of the rated speed, and the LD pin (which is an open collector output) will be low
when the motor speed is within the lock range. The LB1823 controls the motor speed to be within the lock range by
generating a speed error signal when the motor speed goes out of the lock range and adjusting the motor drive on
duty according to that signal.
5. PWM frequency
The PWM frequency is determined by R1 and C3, which are connected to the CR pin.
When R1 is connected to a 6.3 V power supply (the application circuit pin 17 voltage):
fPWM ≈ 1/(0.6 · C · R)
R1 must not be any smaller than 30 kΩ. A PWM frequency of 15 kHz is desirable. If the PWM frequency is too low,
the motor will resonate at the PWM frequency during motor constraint. This can result in disturbing audible
frequency noise. Inversely, the output transistor switching loss can become significant if the PWM frequency is too
high.
6. Grounding
The signal system ground must be separated from the output system ground, and these grounds must be connected to
a single ground point at the connector. The output system ground should be kept as short as possible since it carries
large current.
Output system ground – – The Rf (R10) ground side. The D1, D2, and D3 ground side.
Signal system ground – – The IC pin 24 and the IC peripheral circuit ground.
7. External interface pins
• LD pin
Output type: open collector
Breakdown voltage:8 V
Manufacturing variation in the saturation voltage (reference value at ILD = 10 mA)
0.10 to 0.30 V
• FGS pin
Output type: open collector
Breakdown voltage: 8 V
Manufacturing variation in the saturation voltage (reference value at IFGS = 2 mA)
0.05 to 0.10 V
The FGS pin outputs the FG amplifier output converted to a pulse signal by a hysteresis comparator. Thus FGS is a
speed monitor output. No pull-up resistor is required when unused.
• S/S pin
Input type: PNP transistor base with a 63 kΩ pull-up resistor to VCC
Threshold level: About 2.6 V (high to low), about 3.05 V (low to high)
(typical) Hysteresis: about 0.45 V
In the stop state, power is cut from all but certain circuits (the input, crystal oscillator and divider circuits) and the
LB1823 does not operate.
• F/R pin
Input type: PNP transistor base with a 50 kΩ pull-down resistor to ground
Threshold level: About 2.6 V (high to low), about 3.05 V (low to high)
(typical) Hysteresis: about 0.45 V
The forward/reverse direction must be switched in the stop state.
• BR pin
Input type: PNP transistor base with a 50 kΩ pull-down resistor to ground
Threshold level: About 2.6 V (high to low), about 3.05 V (low to high)
(typical) Hysteresis: about 0.45 V
Braking must be released in the stop mode.
No. 4263-8/11
LB1823
8. FG amplifier
The FG amplifier gain is determined by R7 and R8, with the DC gain, G, being R8/R7. C9 and C10 determine the
FG amplifier frequency characteristics. (R7 and C9 form a high-pass filter and R8 and C10 form a low-pass filter.)
Since a Schmitt comparator is connected following the FG amplifier, the components R1, R2, C4 and C5 must be
chosen so that the amplitude is at least 250 mVp-p. (It is desirable that the FG output be set up to provide a level of
between 1 and 3 Vp-p during steady state motor rotation.)
9. Notes on external capacitors
• C8
C8 is required for stabilization of the FGIN+ pin constant voltage power supply and to generate the IC internal
logic reset pulse. The reset pulse is generated when the FGIN– pin reaches about 1.3 V from 0 V. If the reset does
not operate, the LD pin will go on briefly during IC start.
• C2
C2 is required for power supply stabilization. Since this IC adopts a PWM technique that switches large output
currents, it can generate noise extremely easily. Thus the power supply must be stabilized adequately so that this
noise does not cause the IC to operate incorrectly. C2 should be located as close as possible to pins 17 and 24.
10. Notes on external resistors
• R13, R14 and R15
These resistors set the external output (source side) transistor drive currents. The drive currents (ID) can be derived
from the following formula.
ID ≥ IOUT/hFE min
ID = (VCC – 0.7 – VO sat)/R
IOUT: Maximum output current
hFE min: Output transistor minimum current amplification factor
VO sat: The LB1823 output saturation voltage
• R16
R16 sets the shunt regulator bias current. R16 must be selected so that a current of over 1 mA flows in the VM
voltage range for which guaranteed correct operation is desired.
R16 ≤ (VM min – VREG)/1 mA
• R17, R18 and R19
R17, R18 and R19 prevent leakage from the lower side output transistors and make the switching time faster.
• R20
R20 prevents leakage from the integrator. A value of around 24 kΩ is recommended. If this resistor is not used, the
INT OUT pin will go high in stop mode due to leakage currents. Startup is delayed by the integrator external time
constant at start time, since the motor is accelerated when the INTOUT pin is low.
11. External transistors
• Regulator transistor
Select a transistor with a current capacity of at least 70 mA and a breakdown voltage greater than the largest VM
voltage. Heat generation will be a problem. Use a heat sink or other cooling technique if required.
Pd = (VM max – VREG) × I
I: ICC + Hall bias current + output current (source) + α
When the internal shunt regulator is not used, the power supply must be connected directly to the VCC pin
(4.5 to 7 V). The regulator transistor is not required in this case.
2SC2314 (TO126), 2SD330 (TO220)
2SC3985 (TO220ML) or similar transistor
• Output interface transistors
These transistors are used to assure that high voltages are not applied to the IC. (The total system cost is lower by
restricting the IC breakdown voltage.) Select transistors with a current capacity of at least 30 mA and a breakdown
voltage greater than the largest VM voltage. (R13, R14 and R15 determine the currents.)

12. Through currents due to the direct PWM technique
In the direct PWM technique through currents flow in the outputs due to the switching, e.g., when used in a discrete
structure (including predriver circuits) or in LB1822 applications. These through currents are due to the delays and
parasitic capacitances in the output transistors. Although additional capacitors were previously used to deal with this
problem, the LB1823 includes circuit modifications to ameliorate through currents. However, even despite these
measures, through currents can still occur if the values of R17, R18 and R19 are made too large, since the switching
time of the lower side transistors will be increased. Although whiskers of under 10 ns can be seen in the Rf voltage
waveform during switching, this will not be a problem. (These occur in the probe and do not correspond to current
flows.)
13. Oscillator element
Normally, a crystal resonator, a resistors, and two capacitors are connected to the LB1823 Xtal pin. A ceramic
oscillator could also be used in applications that do not require such precise speed control characteristics. To avoid
problems, consult with the manufacturer of the oscillator element when selecting the oscillator element and the
values of the external resistor and capacitors used. Use a circuit consisting of resistors and a pnp transistor as shown
in the figure to apply an external clock signal (CLK) to the Xtal pin.
fCLK = 1 to 10.2 MHz
Input signal levels
High level voltage: 4.0 V minimum
Low level voltage: 1.5 V maximum
Capacitors must be added to this circuit if overshoot
and/or undershoot appears in the input waveform. Be
sure to check for this condition in that case.

14. Servo constants
The servo constant calculation varies significantly with the motor used, and requires specialized know-how. Thus
this should be handled by the motor manufacturer. We can provide the IC characteristics data required for the servo
constants calculations as well as frequency characteristics simulation data for the filter constants set by the motor
manufacturer. If the resistor between DOUT and INT.IN (R4) is too small, the values of C6 and C7 will become large.
If R4 is too large, speed errors will be likely to occur due to the speed discriminator cutoff current and the integrator
input current. Therefore, we think that a value in the range 10 to 100 kΩ is appropriate. If the resistor between POUT
and INT.IN (R3) is too small, the influence of the PLL system will be too large and pull-in to lock synchronization
will be degraded. Therefore, this resistor should not be too small. (We recommend a value of about 1 MΩ when R4
is 75 kΩ.) First determine the constants for the speed discriminator system only (R4, R5, C6 and C7), and then
determine the value of R3 in the PLL system.
