Three-phase brushless DC motor speed controller
M.S. Kennedy Corporation
output switches are Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBT's) tailored for high switching speeds. The free-wheeling
diodes are Fast Recovery Epitaxial Diodes (FRED's) to provide matched current capabilities with the IGBT's and are
specified with excellent reverse recovery times at high current ratings. The bridge is optically isolated from the control
circuitry. This new smart power motor drive hybrid is compatible with 5v CMOS logic levels. The internal circuitry
prevents simultaneous turn-on of the in-line half bridge transistors with adjustable deadtime to prevent shoot-through.
Undervoltage lockout shuts down the bridge when the supply voltage gets to a point of incomplete turn-on of the output
switches. The isolated internal high-side power supply derived from the +15 volt supply completely eliminates the need for
3 floating independent power supplies for the high-side drive.
