Das H-Bridge 6 Click Board™ ist eine kompakte Zusatzplatine, die einen Gleichstrommotortreiber für Automobilanwendungen enthält. Diese Platine verfügt über den VNHD7008AY, einen H-Brücken-Motortreiber für den Antrieb von Gleichstrommotoren in Kraftfahrzeugen von STMicroelectronics. Der VNHD7008AY verfügt über eine Unterspannungsabschaltung, Laststrombegrenzung, Überlast-Wirkleistungsbegrenzung, Übertemperaturabschaltung und mehr. Dieses Click Board™ enthält außerdem den PCA9538A, einen Niederspannungs-8-Bit-GPIO-Expander für die Kommunikation zwischen MCU und Motortreiber. H-Bridge 6 Click eignet sich für Anwendungen zur Motorsteuerung in Kraftfahrzeugen wie bürstenbehaftete Gleichstrommotoren in Kraftfahrzeugen oder für Anwendungen wie Karosseriesteuergeräte (BCM), Autositzsteuerung und andere.
Das H-Bridge 6 Click Board™ wird von einer mikroSDK-kompatiblen Bibliothek unterstützt, die Funktionen enthält, die die Softwareentwicklung vereinfachen. Dieses Click Board™ wird als vollständig getestetes Produkt geliefert und ist bereit für den Einsatz auf einem System, das mit der mikroBUS™-Buchse ausgestattet ist.
How Does The H-Bridge 6 Click Board™ Work?
The H-Bridge 6 Click Board™ is based on the VNHD7008AY, a DC motor driver for automotive applications that integrates a full protected dual high-side driver and protection for the external power MOSFETs from STMicroelectronics. This Click board™ can interface the MCU to select the motor direction and the brake conditions via input signals on INA and INB pins, but also possesses a MultiSense pin for a motor-current monitor. Two selection pins (SEL0 and SEL1) are available to address to the MCU the information available on the MultiSense pin. It operates from a single power supply input labelled as VBATT in a range from 4V to 28V which can be directly connected to a DC voltage supply. Also, this device is fully protected against supply under-voltage, output overcurrent, and device overtemperature events.
NOTE: To Power-On the VNHD7008AY from Stand-By Mode, it is recommended to toggle INA or INB or SEL0 or SEL1 pins from 0 to 1 state to come out from Stand-By Mode. Also, toggle the PWM pin from 0 to 1 state with a delay of 20μs to avoids any overstress on the device in case of an existing short-to-battery situation.
The H-Bridge 6 Click Board™ communicates with MCU through a well-known 8bit I/O expander the PCA9538A from NXP Semiconductor using the standard I2C 2-Wire interface with a maximum frequency of 400kHz. The VNHD7008AY also allows the choice of the least significant bit (LSB) of its I2C slave address by positioning SMD jumpers labelled as ADDR SEL to an appropriate position marked as 0 and 1. In addition to this feature, this Click board™ also contains additional functionalities routed to the PWM, AN, and RST pins on the mikroBUS™ socket. The PWM pin, up to 20 kHz, allows to control of the speed of the motor in all possible conditions, whiles the AN pin labelled as MS allows monitoring the motor current, provides a voltage proportional to the battery value, and the information on the temperature of the VNHD7008AY. The RST pin has retained its reset function by default.
The H-Bridge 6 Click Board™ is designed to be operated with both 3.3V and 5V logic voltage levels that can be selected via VCC SEL jumper. This allows for both 3.3V and 5V capable MCUs to use the I2C communication lines properly. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library that contains easy to use functions and an example code that can be used as a reference for further development.

Software Support
We provide a library for the H-Bridge 6 Click Board™ on our LibStock page, as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.
Library Description
The library covers all the necessary functions to control the H-Bridge 6 Click Board™. A library performs communication with the device via the I2C interface. Using the PWM function, we can adjust the engine speed and direction.
Key Functions
void hbridge6_generic_write ( uint8_t reg, uint8_t tx_data )- Generic write function.uint8_t hbridge6_generic_read ( uint8_t reg )- Generic read function.void hbridge6_set_direction ( uint8_t direction )- Set the direction function.
Example Description
The application is composed of three sections :
- System Initialization - Initializes I2C and start to write log.
- Application Initialization - Initialization driver enables - I2C, reset the device and set default configuration, initialization and configure the PWM, also write log.
- Application Task - (code snippet) This is an example that demonstrates the use of the H-Bridge 6 Click Board™. It shows moving in the clockwise direction of rotation and moving in the counterclockwise direction of rotation from slow to fast speed. All data logs write on USB UART changes.

Additional Notes and Information
Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART Click Board™, USB UART 2 Click Board™ or RS232 Click Board™ to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all MikroElektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.
MIKROSDK
The H-Bridge 6 Click Board™ is supported with mikroSDK - MikroElektronika Software Development Kit. To ensure proper operation of mikroSDK compliant Click board™ demo applications, mikroSDK should be downloaded from the LibStock and installed for the compiler you are using.
