DC-Motor Controller
3.6 Human Interface Device with DC-Motor
In this sample application the IC can realize the driving of a feedback DC motor via an external power N-FET
bridge. The high side N-FET driver is created with a bootstrap output stage. The current control of the motor
is done via shunt measurement and the reverse polarity protection of the bridge must be realized with an
external power FET connected to the ground line.
Short circuits of the bridge will be detected from fast comparators and in this case the bridge will be switched
off. Weak short circuits are monitored with an external temperature sensor. Detecting rotation direction and
positions of a rotating encoder can be easy done via the timer capture inputs. The 6 high voltage pins SW[n]
make it possible to implement a switch matrix up to 3x3 or 6 single switches.
