PWM control

PWM(pulse-width modulation) is used for the speed control for FD0256f. 2 types of PWM input signals can be

used :

1.

Voltage mode PWM :

Applying a constant(DC) voltage to the PWM pin and the FD0256f will generate PWM pulses internally with

the “ON” duty cycle ratio according to the diagram below(Figure.3), which can be utilized by the user to control

the speed of the motor. The rotation speed will be higher if the voltage applied to the PWM pin is higher.

2.

Pulse mode PWM :

User can also apply PWM pulses directly to the PWM pin. The FD0256f will pass this pulse to the coil driver

with the original duty-cycle ratio.

Note:

(1) This function is only available for FD0256f

(2) While using pulse mode PWM, the “High” Value of the input pulse should be higher than 0.5*VDD and the

“Low” value should be lower than 0.14*VDD

(3) The lower-limit for the PWM pulse frequency is 200Hz, and the recommended frequency range is higher

than 30KHz where the PWM input pulses will not generate acoustic noise.

Note. The “PWM” pin contains an internal pull-up resistor so the FD0256f will rotate at full-speed(100% ON)

when this pin is left un-connected(floating).
