ML4411*/ML4411A** Sensorless Spindle Motor Controller
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ML4411 provides complete commutation for delta or wye wound Brushless DC (BLDC) motors without the need for signals from Hall Effect Sensors. This IC senses the back EMF of the three motor windings (no neutral required) to determine the proper commutation phase angle using Phase Lock Loop techniques. This technique will commutate virtually any 3-phase BLDC motor and is insensitive to PWM noise and motor snubbing. The ML4411 is architecturally similar to the ML4410 but with improved braking and brown-out recovery circuitry. Included in the ML4411 is the circuitry necessary for a Hard Disk Drive microcontroller driven control loop. The ML4411 controls motor current with either a constant off-time PWM or linear current control driven by the microcontroller. Braking and Power Fail are also included in the ML4411. The timing of the start-up sequencing is determined by the micro, allowing the system to be optimized for a wide range of motors and inertial loads. The ML4411 modulates the gates of external N-Channel power MOSFETs to regulate the motor current. The IC drives P-Channel MOSFETs directly. The ML4411A includes a comparator on the P3 output to prevent cross-conduction.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The ML4411 provides closed-loop commutation for 3-phase brushless motors. To accomplish this task, a VCO, integrating Back-EMF Sampling error amplifier and sequencer form a phase-locked loop, locking the VCO to the back-EMF of the motor. The IC also contains circuitry to control motor current with either linear or constant offtime PWM modes. Braking and power fail detection functions are also provided on chip. The ML4411 is designed to drive external power transistors (N-channel sinking transistors and PNP sourcing transistors) directly. Start-up sequencing and motor speed control are accomplished by a microcontroller. Speed sensing is accomplished by monitoring the output of the VCO, which will be a signal which is phased-locked to the commutation frequency of the motor. BACK-EMF SENSING AND COMMUTATOR The ML4411 contains a patented back-EMF sensing circuit which samples the phase which is not energized (Shaded area in figure 2) to determine whether to increase or decrease the commutator (VCO) frequency. A late commutation causes the error amplifier to charge the filter (RC) on pin 20, increasing the VCO input while early commutation causes pin 20 discharge. Analog speed control loops can use pin 20 as a speed feedback voltage. The input impedance of the three PH inputs is about 8Ky to GND. When operating with a higher voltage motor, the PH inputs should be divided down in voltage so that the maximum voltage at any PH input does not exceed VCC.

-6 = 2.42 x 10 C VCO
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.
Assuming that the VVCO(MAX) = 9.5V, then

Figure 5. Commutation Timing and Sequencing. Step 1a: The IC is held in reset (state R) with ICMD low and DIS PWR low. The Micro Processor monitors the VCO/ TACH OUT pin to determine if a signal is present. If a signal is present, the frequency is determined (by measuring the period). If a signal is not present, proceed to the routine described above for starting a motor which is a rest. Step 2a: Release RESET and DIS PWR. Apply a current to pin 21 and monitor the VCO/TACH OUT pin for VCO frequency. Step 3a: When the VCO frequency approaches 6 X the motor frequency (or where the motor frequency has decelerated to by coasting during the time the VCO frequency was ramping up) the back EMF loop can be closed by pulling pin 18 high and motor current brought up with ICMD or ILIMIT. ADJUSTING OPEN LOOP STEP RATE IRAMP should be set so that the VCO's frequency ramp during "open loop stepping" phase of motor starting is less than the motor's acceleration rate. In other words, the motor must be able to keep up with the VCO's ramp rate in open loop stepping mode. The VCO's input voltage (VPIN 20) ramp rate is given by:
dVVCO I RAMP dt C1 + C2
since
FVCO = K VCO x VVCO
-6 K VCO(MAX) = 4 x 10 C VCO
then combining the 3 equations IRAMP can be calculated from the desired maximum open loop stepping rate the motor can follow.
IRAMP< dFVCO CVCO x (C1 + C2) 6 dt 4 x 10-

ML4411/ML4411A
The motor will start more consistently and tolerate a wider variation in open loop step rate if there is some damping on the motor (such as head drag) during the open loop modes. The tolerance of the open loop step VCO acceleration PWM AND LINEAR CURRENT CONTROL To facilitate speed control, the ML4411 includes two current control loops -- linear and PWM (figure 9). The linear control loop senses the motor current on the ISENSE terminal through RSENSE. An internal current sense amplifier's (A2) output modulates the gates of the 3 Nchannel MOSFET's when OTA OUT is tied to OTA IN, or can modulate a single MOSFET gate tied to OTA OUT. When operated in this mode, OTA IN is tied to 12V, and N1-N3 are saturated switches. This method produces the lowest current ripple at the expense of an extra MOSFET. The linear current control modulates the gates of the external MOSFET drivers. Amplifier A2 is a transconductance amplifier which amplifies the difference between ICMD and ISENSE. The transconductance gain of A2 is: y
dFVCO dt depends on the tolerances of KVCO, IRAMP, C1, C2, and CVCO. For more optimum spin up times, these variables can be digitally "calibrated" out by the microprocessor using the following procedure:
1. Reset the IC by holding pin 16 low for at least 5s. 2. Go into open loop step mode with no current on the motor and measure the difference between the first two complete VCO periods with the PWM signal at 50% duty cycle: ENABLE E/A = (see below) ICMD = 0V PWM OUT = 50%
g m = 1.875 x 10 -4

This time constant should be fast enough so that the current loop settles in less than 10% of TVCO at the highest motor speed to avoid torque ripple to VTH mismatch of the N-Channel MOSFETs. The ISENSE input pin should be kept below 1V. If ISENSE goes above 1V, a bias current of about -300A will flow out of pin 12 and the N outputs will be inhibited. Bringing ISENSE below 0.7V removes the bias current to its normal level. For this reason, the noise filter resistor on the ISENSE pin (1Ky on Figure 10) should be less than 1.5Ky. The noise filter time constant should be great enough to filter the leading edge current spike when the N-FETs turn on but small enough to avoid excessive phase shift in the ISENSE signal. OUTPUT DRIVERS The motor's source drivers (P1 thru P3) are open-collector NPN's with internal 16Ky pull-up resistors. N3is inhibited until P3 is within 1.4V (typ) of VCC2 on the ML4411A. Drivers N1 through N3 are totem-pole outputs capable of sourcing and sinking 10mA. Switching noise in the external MOSFETs can be reduced by adding resistance in series with the gates.

4. Use new computed duty cycle for open loop stepping mode and proceed with a normal start-up sequence. If this auto calibration is used ENABLE E/A can be tied permanently high, eliminating a line from the Micro. Since there is offset associated with the Phase Detector Error Amp (E/A), more current than is being injected by IRAMP may be taken out of pin 20 if the offset is positive (into pin 20) if the error amp were enabled during the open loop stepping mode. In that case, VVCO would not rise and the motor would not step properly. The effect of E/A offset can also be canceled out by the auto calibration algorithm described above allowing the E/A to be permanently enabled.

BRAKING As shown in figure 9, the braking circuit pulls the NChannel MOSFET gates high when BRAKE falls below a 1.4V threshold. After a power failure, CDLY is discharged slowly through RDLY providing a delay for retract to occur before the braking circuit is activated. The N-Channel buffer (B1) tri-states when the BRAKE pin reaches 2.1V to ensure that no charge from CBRK is lost through the pulldown transistor in B1. To brake the motor with external signals, first disable power by pulling pin 8 low, then pull pin 26 below 1.4V using an open drain (or diode isolated) output. The bias current for the Braking circuits comes from VCC2. When the N-Channel MOSFETs turn on, no additional power is generated for VCC2 (motor back-EMF rectified through out the MOSFET body diodes). After VCC2 drops below 4V, Q2 turns off. Continued braking relies on the CGS of the N-Channel MOSFETs to sustain the MOSFET gate enhancement voltage.

APPLICATIONS Figure 10 shows a typical application of the ML4411 in a hard disk drive spindle control. Although the timing necessary to start the motor in most applications would be generated by a microcontroller, Fig. 11 shows a simple "one shot" start-up timing approach. Speed control can be accomplished either by: 1. Sensing the VCO OUT frequency with a Microcontroller and adjusting ICMD via an analog output form the Micro (PWM DAC). 2. Using analog circuitry for speed control. (Fig. 12). OUTPUT STAGE HINTS In the circuit in Figure 10, Q1, Q2, and Q3 are IRFR9024 or equivalent. Q4, Q5, and Q6 are IRFR024 or equivalent. New MOSFET packaging technology such as the Little Foot series may decrease the PC board space. These packages, however have much lower thermal inertia and dissipation capabilities than the larger packages, and care should be taken not to exceed their rated current and junction temperature. Since the output section in a full bridge application consists of three half-H switches, cross-conduction can occur. Cross-conduction is the condition where an N-FET and P-FET in the same phase of the bridge conduct simultaneously. This could happen under two conditions (see figure 13):

Figure 13. Alternate cross-conduction prevention for ML4411A Figure 11. Analog Start-up Circuit In Condition 2 above, the P-Channel MOSFET is pulled up inside the ML4411 with a 16Ky resistor. If the current through C(CGp) is greater than VTH 16K when the N-FET turns on, the P-FET could turn on simultaneously, causing cross-conduction. Adding R1 as shown in Figure 14 eliminates this. The size of R1 will depend on the fall time of the phase voltage, and the size of the C(DGp). D1 may be needed for high power applications to limit the negative current pulled (through C(DGn)) out of the substrate diode in the ML4411 when P-FET turns off.

Figure 14. Causes of Cross-conduction Adding a series damping resistor to the N-FET gate (RGn) will slow the fall time. The damping resistor should be low enough to: Avoid turning on the N-Channel gate when the PNP turns on via the same mechanism outlined in condition 2 above Not severely increase the switching losses in the N-FET UNIPOLAR OPERATION Unipolar mode offers the potential advantage of lower motor drive cost by only requiring the use of 3 transistors to drive the motor. The ML4411 will operate in unipolar mode (Figure 15) provided the following precautions are taken: 1. The IC supplies should not exceed 12V + 10%. 2. The phase pins on the IC should not exceed the supply voltage.
Figure 12. Analog Speed Control 1. When transitioning from mode 0 to mode A (see table 1) P3 goes from on to off at the same time N3 goes from off to on. If the P3 turns off slowly and N3 turns on quickly, cross-conduction may occur. This condition has been prevented inside the IC on the ML4411A through the addition of comparator A6 on the P3 output (Figure 9). This comparator may cause an oscillation when the N3 switches on due to the capacitive coupling effect described below pulling the P3 pin below VCC2-1.4V. To avoid this, use the circuit in Figure 13. 2. When the MOSFET in the same phase switches on gate current flows due to capacitive coupling of current through the MOSFET's drain to gate capacitance. This could cause the device that was off to be turned on.

Figure 15. ML4411 Unipolar Drive Application
In unipolar operation, the motor`s windings must be allowed to drive freely to: VF(MAX) = VSUPPLY (MAX) + VEMF (MAX) Therefore, there can be no diodes to clamp the inductive energy to VSUPPLY. This energy must be clamped, however, to avoid an over-voltage condition on the MOSFETs and other components. Typically, a VCLAMP voltage is created to provide the clamping voltage. The inductive energy may either be dissipated (Figure 16) or alternately efficiently regenerated back to the system supply (Figure 17). The circuit in Figure 15 is designed to minimize the external components necessary, at some compromise to performance. The 3 resistors from the motor phase windings to the PH inputs work with the ML4411`s 8Ky internal resistance to ground to divide the motor`s phase voltage down, providing input signals that do not exceed 12V.

This circuit uses analog speed regulation. The 1My resistor from Pin 20 to the speed regulation op amp provides the function of injecting current into the VCO loop filter for the open loop stepping phase of start-up operation. The "one shot" circuitry to time the reset is replaced by a diode and RC delay from the rising edge or the POWERFAIL signal. The error amplifier is left enabled continuously since at low speeds its current contribution is negligible. The current injected into the loop filter must be greater than the leakage current from the phase detector amplifier for the motor to start reliably.

HIGHER VOLTAGE MOTOR DRIVE To drive a higher voltage motor, the same precautions regarding ML4411 voltage limitations as were outlined for Unipolar drive above should be followed. Figures 14-16 provide several methods of translating the ML4411`s P outputs to drive a higher voltage.
