Speed control circuit Since the LB11876 adopts PLL speed control, it provides precise, low-jitter, and stable motor operation. This PLL circuit compares the falling edge of the CLK signal with the FG signal (the falling edges of the FGIN+ or FGS output) and controls motor operation based on the difference. The FG servo frequency during this control operation is controlled by the frequency given by the following formula which is based on the divisor selected by the clock input frequency (fCLK) and the CLKSEL pin. fFG (servo) = fCLK ÷ <divisor> 2. Output drive circuit To minimize the power loss in the output, the LB11876 adopts direct PWM drive. The output transistors, which are external, are always saturated when on and the motor drive power is adjusted by changing the duty with which the output is on. The PWM switching is performed with the UH, VH, and WH outputs. Either high side or low side switching can be selected by the way the output transistors are connected. 3. Current limiter circuit The current limiter circuit limits the drive current to a current determined by the equation I = VRF/RF, where VRF = 0.25V (typical) and Rf is the current detection resistor. The limiting operation works by reducing other output on duty to suppress the drive current. Detection with excellent precision can be acquired by connecting the RF and RFGND pin lines to points as close as possible to the ends of the current detection resistor (Rf). 4. Reference clock Care must be taken to assure that no noise due to chattering or other problems appears on the externally input clock signal. While the input circuit is designed with hysteresis, noise must be rejected by, for example, inserting capacitors in the clock line if noise problems occur. If the application is to be started in the state where there is no reference clock input signal, the motor will turn somewhat and then drive will be turned off. 5. PWM frequency The PWM frequency is determined by the capacitance of the capacitor (C) connected to the PWM pin. fPWM ≈ 1/(30000 × C) If a 620pF capacitor is used, the circuit will oscillate at about 50kHz. If the PWM frequency is too low the motor will emit switching noise, and if it is too high the power loss in the output will increase. A frequency in the range 30kHz to 100kHz is desirable. This capacitor must be connected between this pin and the GND pin by lines that are as short as possible to make this circuit immune to noise. 6. Hall sensor input signals To prevent noise problems, the Hall sensor input signals should have an amplitude of at least 100mV. If the output waveforms (during phase switching) are disrupted by noise, this must be prevented by connecting capacitors across the inputs. If the outputs from a Hall sensor IC are input, holding one side of the inputs (either the + or - side) at a voltage within the common-mode input range for direct Hall sensor signal input will allow the other side to be used as 0V to VCC input. 7. FG input signal Normally, one of the Hall sensor signals is used as the FG input signal. if noise is a problem, the input signal must be filtered with a capacitor or a capacitor plus resistor. No.8317-13/15 LB11876 8. Constraint protection circuit The LB11876 includes a built-in constraint protection circuit to protect the IC and the motor if the motor is physically constrained from turning. If one Hall sensor input signals do not switch states for a period in excess of a certain fixed time in the start state, the PWM drive side output is turned off. The time is set by the capacitor connected to the CSD pin. Set time (seconds) ≈ 15.4 × C (μF) If a 0.068µF capacitor is used, the protection time will be about 1.05 seconds. (If one Hall sensor input signal period becomes longer than this time, the PWM drive side output is turned off.) This set time must have a certain amount of margin with respect to the motor startup time. This protection circuit will not operate during deceleration due to switching the clock frequency. The constraint protection state can be cleared by either switching to the stop state or turning the power off and then on again. Since the CSD pin also functions as the initial reset pulse generation pin, connecting this pin to ground will reset the logic circuits and make speed control operation impossible. Therefore, if the constraint protection circuit is not used, this pin must be connected to ground by a resistor of about 220kΩ and a capacitor of about 4700pF connected in parallel. 9. Undervoltage protection circuit The LB11876 includes a undervoltage protection circuit to prevent incorrect operation when power is first applied or when the power supply voltage falls. The LVSD pin turns the PWM drive side output off at voltages under about 3.7V (typical), and clears the protection state when the voltage rises above about 4.2V (typical). An arbitrary operating voltage can be set by adding an external Zener diode. Note that the maximum applied voltage for the LVSD pin is 18V. 10. Phase lock signal (1) Phase lock range : Since this IC does not have a speed system counter, the speed error range in the phase locked state cannot be determined by the IC characteristics alone. (This is because the range is affected by the acceleration with changes in the FG frequency.) If it is necessary to stipulate this in conjunction with a motor, it will be necessary to measure the range with the actual motor state. Since speed errors occur easily in states where the FG acceleration is large, it is thought that the lock pull-in time at startup and the unlock time due to clock switching will be the cases where the speed error is the largest. (2) Phase lock signal mask function : It is possible to assure that the lock signal is output in stable states by masking the short-term low levels due to hunting during lock pull-in. Note, however, that the lock signal output will be delayed by the amount of the mask time. The mask time is set by the capacitor connected between the CLD pin and ground. Mask time (seconds) ≈ 0.9 × C (μF) When a 0.1µF capacitor is used, the mask time will be about 90ms. If full masking is required, the mask time must be set with an adequate margin. Leave the CLD pin open if masking is not required. 11. Power supply stabilization (1) VCC : Since this IC is used in switching drive applications with large output currents, the power supply line is easily disrupted. Therefore it is necessary to connect an adequately large capacitor between the VCC pin and ground. The capacitor ground side should be located as close to the IC GND pin as possible. Since the power supply line is most easily disrupted during lock pull-in at high speeds, designers must analyze this case carefully and select an adequately large capacitor. Since the power supply line is particularly susceptible to disruption if a diode is inserted in the power supply line to prevent destruction of the IC by reverse connection, an even larger capacitor must be selected in this case. (2) 13V regulator : When implementing a motor driver circuit with single-voltage power supply specifications and a voltage that is outside the power supply voltage range of this IC, the supply voltage required by this IC (approx. 13V) can be created using the V13 pin. The V13 pin circuit is a shunt regulator and can generate a 13V level by supplying current through an external resistor. A stabilized voltage is generating by setting the current to a level in the range 0.5mA to 4mA. An external transistor with a current capacity of over 80mA (ICC + Hall sensor bias current + output source current) and a voltage handling capacity higher than the motor supply voltage must be selected. Since heat generation in the transistor may become a problem, heat dissipation must be provided by the package. (3) 5V regulator : Connect a capacitor with a value over 0.1µF to stabilize the VREG voltage, which is the IC's control circuit power supply. That capacitor's ground side must be connected as close as possible to the IC ground. No.8317-14/15 LB11876 12. Power saving circuit This IC goes into a power saving state in which current drain is reduced when set to the stop state. This power saving state is implemented by cutting the bias current to most of the circuits in the IC. The 5V regulator output, however, is still output when the IC is in the power saving state. 13. Error amplifier system components The external components for the error amplifier block must be located as close as possible to the IC to minimize the influence of noise. These components must also be located as far from the motor as possible. 14. Forward/reverse switching In principle, forward/reverse switching must be performed with the motor in the stopped state. This IC does provide circuit workarounds for handling the through currents that occur during switching if the direction is switched while the motor is turning. However, care is required with respect to lifting of the motor supply voltage during this switching, since the motor current will return to the power supply during brief instants. If this becomes a problem, the size of the capacitor connected between the power supply line and ground must be increased. If the motor current after switching exceeds the current limit value, the PWM drive side output will be turned off. However, the opposite side output will go to the short-circuit braking state and a current determined by the motor induced voltage and the coil resistance. This current must be held under the current rating of the output transistors used. (This aspect requires more care the faster the motor speed at which forward/reverse switching occurs.) 15. Brake switching Either free running or short-circuit braking can be selected with the BRSEL pin. The short-circuit braking mode adopts a form in which all phases of the PWM drive side output transistors are turned on (all phases of the reverse side transistors are turned off). Care is required, since the current limiter function does not operate during braking. During braking, the output circuits go to a shorted state with 100% duty. The current that flows in the output transistors during braking is determined by the motor induced voltage and the coil resistance. This current must be held under the current rating of the output transistors used. (This aspect requires more care the faster the motor speed at which braking occurs.) 16.
