Space
• SPDREVS — After the MINSPD and SPEEDTH criteria are met, SPDREVS adds a minimum number of
Hall_U periods that must occur for LOCK to be set.
Space
• SPEEDTH — Sets how much speed variation is allowed across Hall_U periods while keeping LOCK set. This
3-bit field sets the percentage variation allowed by changing a programmable divider. Divisions of 1/4, 1/8,
1/16, 1/32, 1/64, 1/128, 1/256, and 1/512 are supported. These divisors correspond to 25%, 12.5%, 6.25%,
3.13%, 1.56%, 0.78%, 0.39%, and 0.20% variation per revolution.
Space
• SPEED — In the Internal Register PWM Mode, SPEED divided by 4095 sets the input duty cycle. In Clock
Frequency Mode, SPEED sets the open-loop gain during spin-up before LOCKn goes Low.
The diagram below shows how the lock parameters (MINSPD, SPEEDTH, and SPDREV) affect commutation
mode.

8.3.7 Braking
Motor braking can be initiated by the BRKPOL register bit as well as the BRAKE terminal. The BRKPOL register
bit can also be used to program the polarity of the BRAKE terminal, as it is combined with the terminal with an
exclusive-OR function as follows:
