ST EVSPIN958 Manual de usuario

Introduction

The EVSPIN958 single brushed DC motor driver expansion board is based on the STSPIN958.

It provides an affordable and easy-to-use solution for the implementation of brushed DC motor driving applications. Thanks

to the parallel operation, it can be easily converted to a single half-bridge with double current capability. In addition to the

internal current limiter, the integrated amplifiers allow it to be used in systems with external current control. The EVSPIN958 is

compatible with the Arduino UNO R3 connector and most STM32 Nucleo boards.

1Safety precautions

Warning: Some of the components mounted on the board could reach hazardous temperatures

during operation.

While using the board, please follow the following precautions:

• Do not touch the components or the heatsink.

• Do not cover the board.

• Do not put the board in contact with flammable materials or with materials releasing smoke when heated.

• After operation, allow the board to cool down before touching it.

2Getting started

The main features of the EVSPIN958 expansion board are:

• Voltage range from 5 V to 58 V

• Phase current up to 5 A r.m.s

• Adjustable output slew rate

• Seven different driving modes

• One current limiter with adjustable OFF time

• Two integrated amplifiers with fixed gain

• Full protection set including: overcurrent, undervoltage lock out and thermal shutdown

• Compatibility with Arduino UNO R3 connector and STM32 Nucleo boards

The EVSPIN958 evaluation board is ready to be used in few steps. Follow this procedure to start your evaluation:

1. Check the setting of the jumpers based on your configuration as described in Section 3

2. Connect the board with the STM32 Nucleo board through the Arduino UNO R3

3. Supply the board through the input 2 (VS) and 1 (ground) of the connector CN1

3.1 Driving mode selection

The EVSPIN958 can drive up to 2 DC motors at the same time.

Hardware description and configuration

UM3056 - Rev 1 page 4/18

The driving mode selection is done setting J1 and J2 jumpers (connected to MODE1 and MODE2 pins of the

device) on the top of the board.

J6 solder jumper on the bottom of the board must be closed/opened according to the selected driving mode.

The table below briefly summarizes the possible configurations:

1. When J6 is closed, the removal of the shunt resistor 2 (R9) is recommended for higher precision of the triggering of the

current limiter

2. The motor can be connected between OUT and either LSS (like in the figure) or VS, paying attention to properly connect

PWM2 to GND or to VDD respectively.

3. This configuration is only available with current limiter in Fixed OFF time mode (see Section 3.2 ).

3.2 Current limiter mode

The behavior of the current limiter can be changed by setting the J3 jumper (connected to MODE3 of the device)

as follows:

Table 3. Current limiter mode settings

J3 Current limiter mode J5 and J3 Decay time

1-2 Fixed OFF time Closed Depending on R6 resistor

(Figure 6)

2-3 PWM trimming Open Depending on PWM input signals

In Fixed OFF time mode, the current limiter can be disabled by setting R6 to its minimum value.

The current threshold can be set in two different ways:

• Trimming R13 resistor, leaving CN9.3 floating

• Applying a square wave with variable duty cycle to CN9.3, setting R13 to its minimum value

3.3 Output slew rate

The output slew rate can be increased moving the rotative switch SW1 clockwise. With the STSPIN958 device,

the slew rate value can be chosen from four different values, as shown in Table 4.

Table 4. Slew rate settings

4Thermal performance

An example of the thermal performances of the EVSPIN958 is provided in Figure 7 . The board is used in

full-bridge and parallel half-bridge configuration in a typical application to drive an inductive load with different

output currents ranging from 0.5 A to 4 A.

Set-up conditions:

•Planar orientation of the board and natural convection only

•Tambient = 25 °C

•PWM frequency = 20 KHz

•VS = 30 V

•Output slew rate setting = 2 V/ns
