General Description
The MDC050-050051 driver is designed to drive DC brushless motors at currents of up to 5A (peak) and
50V. The driver operates in the basic open loop configuration with either 60° or 120° DC brushless motors. The driver is protected against over current (cycle-by-cycle), hall sensor error and under voltage.
When an error occurs, a fault light is turned on to notify the user. Included on the driver is an internal
potentiometer to control the maximum phase current allowed into the motor and an internal potentiometer
to control the speed of the motor. An optional external voltage (1.5-4VDC) or external 5V/10Khz PWM
signal can be used to control the speed as well. The direction of the motor can be preset by the direction
control input. Other inputs to the drive include a run/stop and a motor freewheel input. The freewheel
input overrides all other inputs into the driver.

Fault Protection
A cycle-by-cycle over current protection is provided when the motor current level exceeding the current limit set by adjusting R28 is produced. When the over current protection is activated, the controller
shuts off the outputs to the motor. The maximum current set by R28 is 5A per phase.

Specifications
Control Inputs: (TB1, Pins 1-3)
TTL-CMOS Compatible
Logic “0” = 0-0.8VDC
Logic “1” = OPEN
All three inputs (run/stop, freewheel, and direction) are pulled up through 10k Ohm resistors.
Direction Control: (TB1, Pin 1)
Logic “1” (open) - Clockwise
Logic “0” - Counterclockwise
Freewheel: (TB1, Pin 2)
Logic “1” (open) - Motor is Enabled
Logic “0” - Motor is de-energized and will coast to a stop
Run/Stop: (TB1, Pin 3)
Logic “1” (open) - Motor will not run
Logic “0” - Motor will run and will accelerate according to speed setting
Vcontrol: (TB1, Pin 4)
To control the speed of the motor with an external DC voltage, a voltage from 1.5VDC-4VDC, must be applied with reference to AGND (TB1, Pin 5). Or, to control the speed of the motor with an external 5V/10Khz
PWM signal, a duty cycle from 30% - 90%, must be applied with reference to AGND (TB1, Pin 5).
Care must be taken not to exceed 6V on this pin.
Output Current Rating:
5.0 amperes per phase maximum operating peak current, set by R28
2.5 amperes per phase maximum operating continuous current
Power Requirements: (TB2, Pins 4 and 5)
20VDC (min) - 50VDC (max)
Operating Temperature:
0°-70° C

Heating Considerations
The temperature of the driver transistors should never be allowed to rise above 70° Celsius. If necessary,
air should be blown across the driver to maintain suitable temperatures.

Freewheel
The motor freewheel feature allows the de-energized of the motor phases. A high (open) input at this input
causes the motor to run at the given speed, while a low at this input causes the motor to coast to a stop.

Motor Run/Stop
The motor run/stop feature allows the stopping of a motor by shorting out the bottom drives of the three
phases. A low at this input allows the motor to run, while a high (open) input does not allow motor operation and if operating causes rapid deceleration.

Speed Adjust Setting
There are three ways to set the speed on this DC Brushless Motor Driver
1. One is to use an external voltage by setting JP2 to position 2-3. If a voltage is used to control the speed
of the motor, the 1.5V to 4V voltage can be tied on Vcontrol (TB1 - pin 4) with respect to AGND (TB1- pin 5).
2. Another is to use external 5V/10Khz signal by setting JP2 to position 2-3. If a voltage is used to control
the speed of the motor, the 30% to 90% duty cycle can be tied on Vcontrol (TB1 - pin 4) with respect to
AGND (TB1 - pin 5).
3. Another is to use the internal potentiometer, R18, by setting JP2 to position 1-2.
The maximum voltage amplitude that can be placed on Vcontrol (TB1-Pin 4) 6V. A voltage exceeding 6V
will cause damage to the driver.
