The MC33#$J~;&ovides an economical method of
~\~:\
implementi~.ghsed-loop speed control of brush less dc
motor&k~&~,,~nating the need for amagnetic or optical
tach,o~~t~~. ‘Shown in the timing diagram of Figure 1,
th~~~,~~k~:&’Inputs (Pins 1, 2, 3) monitor the brush less
~wlo~-rotor position sensors. Each sensor signal tran-
$~~~~ is digitally detected; OR’ed at the Latch ‘Set’ Input,
ahd causes CT to discharge. Acorresponding output
pulse is generated at fout (Pin 5) of adefined amplitude,
and programmable width determined by the values
selected for RT and CT (Pin 6). The average voltage of
the output pulse train increases with motor speed.
When fed through alow pass filter or integrator, adc
voltage proportional to speed is generated. Figure 2
shows the proper connections for atypical closed loop

application using the MC33034 brushless motor con-
troller. Constant speed operation down to 100 RPM is
possible with economical three phase four pole motors.
The 4A inverter output (Pin 4) is used in systems
where the controller and motor sensor phasing con-
ventions are not compatible. Amethod of converting
from either convention to the other is shown in Figure 3.
For amore detailed explanation of this subject, refer to
the text above Figure 39 on the MC33034 data sheet,
The output pulse amplitude VOH is constant with tern-
perature and controlled by the supply voltage on VCC
(Pin 8). Operation down to 5.5 Vis guaranteed over
temperature. For systems without aregulated power
supply, an internal 8.25 Vshunt regulator is provided.
