DC-Motor 20 Click-Platine
DC-Motor 20 Click-Platine
Der Gleichstrommotor 20 Click Board™ ist eine kompakte Zusatzplatine, die einen Treiber für einen bürstenbehafteten Gleichstrommotor enthält. Diese Platine enthält den TC78H651AFNG, einen dualen H-Brückentreiber für einen oder zwei bürstenbehaftete Gleichstrommotoren, der DMOS mit niedrigem Einschaltwiderstand in Ausgangstransistoren von Toshiba Semiconductor enthält. Der Vorwärts-/Rückwärts-/Stopp-Modus kann entsprechend dem Zustand seiner Eingangssteuersignale ausgewählt werden, die an die GPIO-Pins der mikroBUS™-Buchse weitergeleitet werden. Es verfügt über einen weiten Betriebsspannungsbereich von 1,8 V bis 7,5 V mit einer Ausgangsstromkapazität von maximal 2 A. Darüber hinaus verfügt es über einen integrierten Schutz gegen Unterspannung, Überstrom und Übertemperatur.
Das DC Motor 20 Click Board™ eignet sich zum Antrieb von Gleichstrom-Bürstenmotoren und Schrittmotoren für Niederspannungsgeräte.
How Does The DC Motor 20 Click Board™ Work?
The DC Motor 20 Click Board™ is based on the TC78H651AFNG, a dual H-bridge driver for one or two DC brushed motors from Toshiba Semiconductor. The integrated MOSFETs, which configures with an H-Bridge circuit inside the TC78H651AFNG, use DMOS elements with low-on resistance (0.22Ω typical with 5V power supply). It has a wide operating voltage range with an output current capacity of 2A maximum and control functions including motor-related functions and built-in detection circuits for overcurrent, overheat, and low/high voltage.
As mentioned in the product description, the DC Motor 20 Click Board™ communicates with MCU using several GPIO pins. Also, this Click board™ has a Standby function used to switch to Standby mode by setting all motor control pins to a low logic state. When the Standby mode is active, the TC78H651AFNG stops supplying the power to the logic circuit. The Standby current is significantly reduced because all circuits in the IC are configured with CMOS/DMOS elements, and the current consumption in this mode is 0μA typical.
To turn ON the internal MOSFETs of the TC78H651AFNG, they need to be switched by the logic level, which is input to the control input pins: IN1, IN2, IN3, and IN4 pins routed to the RST, AN, PWM, and INT pins of the mikroBUS™ socket. Thereby, the Forward/Reverse/Stop rotation direction mode can be selected according to the state of its input control signals. More information on the Motor Rotation Mode Selection can be found in the attached datasheet.
The DC Motor 20 Click Board™ can operate with both 3.3V and 5V logic voltage levels selected via the VCC SEL jumper. This way, it is allowed for both 3.3V and 5V capable MCUs to use communication lines properly. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library containing easy-to-use functions and an example code that can be used, as a reference, for further development.
