Overview
Le Moteur à courant continu 21 Click Board™ est une carte complémentaire compacte qui contient un pilote de moteur à courant continu à balais. Cette carte comprend l'A3910, un pilote de moteur à courant continu conçu pour les applications d'alimentation basse tension d'Allegro Microsystems. Il est contrôlé via plusieurs broches GPIO et dispose d'une large plage de tension de fonctionnement avec une capacité de courant de sortie de 500 mA. En plus de la possibilité d'être utilisé dans la configuration en pont complet pour piloter un seul moteur à courant continu bidirectionnel, il peut également être utilisé comme un double demi-pont pour piloter deux moteurs à courant continu. L'utilisation d'un commutateur MOS intégré améliore l'action de freinage du moteur, par rapport à la mise en œuvre avec une simple diode de serrage. En outre, il dispose également d'une protection intégrée telle qu'une protection contre les courants croisés et un arrêt thermique.
Le moteur à courant continu 21 Click Board™ est adapté à l'entraînement de moteurs à courant continu à balais et destiné au marché grand public et industriel avec des applications finales pour les équipements basse tension.
How Does The DC Motor 21 Click Board™ Work?
The DC Motor 21 Click Board™ is based on the A3910, a dual half-bridge motor driver designed for low voltage power applications from Allegro Microsystems. The DC Motor 21 Click Board™ is controlled via several GPIO pins of the mikroBUS™ socket and has a wide operating voltage range with an output current capacity of 500mA maximum. The integrated MOSFETs, which configures a half-bridge circuit inside the A3910, provide the possibility to drive dual DC motors but also allow to be used in the full-bridge configuration to drive a single bidirectional DC motor. Thanks to its plane features and benefits, the DC Motor 21 Click Board™ is targeted at the consumer market with end applications to low voltage equipment.
Using an integrated MOS switch improves braking action for the motor, compared to implementation with a simple clamp diode. Besides, it also features built-in protection such as crossover current and thermal shutdown protection, alongside "Sleep" Standby mode with zero drain-current.
As mentioned in the product description, the DC Motor 21 Click Board™ communicates with MCU using several GPIO pins. To turn ON the internal MOSFETs of the A3910, they need to be switched by the logic level, which is input to the control input pins: HN1, LN1, HN2, and LN2 pins routed to the AN, CS, PWM, and INT pins of the mikroBUS™ socket. Thereby, the Drive/Break/Coast/Sleep motor functions can be selected according to the state of its input control signals.
The DC Motor 21 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.
