START-UP SEQUENCING

When the motor is initially at rest, it is generating no

back-EMF. Because a back-EMF signal is required for

closed loop commutation, the motor must be started

“open-loop” until a velocity sufficient to generate some

back-EMF is attained (around 100 RPM). The following

steps are a typical procedure for starting a motor which is

at rest.

Step 1: The IC is held in reset (state R) with full power

applied to the windings (see figure 6). This aligns the rotor

to a position which is 30° (electrical) before the center of

the first commutation state.

Step 2: Reset is released, and a fixed current is input to

pin 21 and appears as a current on pin 20, and will ramp

the VCO input voltage, accelerating the motor at a fixed

rate.

Step 3: When the motor speed reaches about 100 RPM,

the back EMF loop can be closed by pulling pin 18 high.

Using this technique, some reverse rotation is possible.

The maximum amount of reverse rotation is 360/N, where

N is the number of poles. For an 8 pole motor, 45° reverse

rotation is possible.

For quick recovery following a momentary power failure,
