DescriptionThe LS7260/LS7262 are monolithic, MOS integrated circuits designed to generate the signals necessary to control a three phase or four phase brushless DC motor.
They are the basic building blocks of a brushless DC motor controller. The circuits respond to changes at the SENSE inputs, originating at the motor position sensors, to provide electronic commutation of the motor windings.
Pulse Width Modulation of outputs for motor speed control is accomplished through either the ENABLE input or through the Analog input (VTRIP) in conjunction with the OSCILLATOR input. Overcurrent circuitry is provided to protect the windings, associated drivers and power supply. The overcurrent circuitry causes the external output drivers to switch off immediately upon sensing the overcurrent condition and on again only when the overcurrent condition disappears and the positive edge of either the ENABLE input or the sawtooth OSCILLATOR occurs. This limits the overcurrent sense cycling to the chopping rate of the ENABLE input or the sawtooth OSCILLATOR.
A positive braking feature is provided to effect rapid deceleration.
While the LS7262 is designed for driving NPN and PNP transistors (See Fig. 2), the LS7260 is designed to drive both NMOS and PMOS Power FETs and develops a full 12V drive for both the N-Channel and P-Channel devices (See Fig. 1) when using a 12V power supply.
