Fig. 6 has shown the part according to the circuit diagram of the brushless DC motor of first embodiment, and this figure has described the phase of the entire circuit figure shown in Fig. 3 in detail.In fact MOSFET 8 shown in Fig. 3 is formed by the MOSFET Q1 that connects with MOSFET Q2, and receives High Level DC Voltage Vdc.MOSFET Q1 comprises as the sustained diode 1 of passive component and grid capacitor C1.MOSFET Q2 also comprises as the sustained diode 2 of passive component and grid capacitor C2.
Gate drivers 11 comprises hysteresis comparator HS1, HS2, level shift circuit LS1, resistor R 1, R2, R3, R4 and output electronic switch SW1, SW2, SW3, SW4.Gate drivers 11 is received in the pwm signal of generation in the predriver 12 as input signal HIN, LIN, and output signal HO, LO is supplied to each grid of MOSFET Q1 and MOSFET Q2.
Fig. 7 has shown time (regularly) figure of the relation between explanation input signal HIN, the pre-output signal HO of LIN, the LO.In the time period of " t "<t1, input signal HIN and LIN rest on low level, thereby connect in output electronic switch SW1, the SW3 of upside disconnection and at switch SW 2, the SW4 of downside.Output signal HO, LO remain on low level thus, and MOSFET Q1, MOSFET Q2 rest on cut-off state.
Next, when " t "=t1, input signal HIN is elevated to high level, and input signal LIN remains on low level.Switch SW 1 is connected thus, and switch SW 2 disconnects.Output signal HO is elevated to high level conducting MOSFET Q1.MOSFET Q2 remains on cut-off state.At this moment, the stored charge in guiding (boot) capacitor C3 supplies to the grid of MOSFET Q1 by resistance R 1, and output signal HO raises with the regular hour constant.MOSFET Q1 rests on cut-off state and reaches the threshold voltage Vth of MOSFET Q1 up to output signal HO, and when " t "=t10, promptly when signal HO reaches voltage Vth, and MOSFET Q1 conducting, this impels to drive coil 21 supplies with High Level DC Voltage Vdc.
Next, when " t "=t2, input signal HIN drops to low level, and output signal LIN remains on low level.Switch SW 1 is disconnected thus, and switch SW 2 connections, and output signal HO constant decline in time, and this time constant is determined by the grid capacitor C1 of resistor R 2 and MOSFET Q1.MOSFET Q1 rests on conducting (ON) state and becomes the threshold voltage Vth that is lower than MOSFET Q1 up to output signal HO, and becomes when being lower than threshold voltage as output signal HO, and promptly when " t "=t20, MOSFETQ1 becomes by (OFF) state.
When " t "=t3, input signal HIN remains on low level, and input signal LIN is elevated to high level, thus switch SW 3 connect, and switch SW 4 disconnects.Output signal LO raises with the time constant of being determined by capacitor C2 and resistor 3.MOSFET Q2 rests on cut-off state and reaches the threshold voltage Vth of MOSFET Q2 up to output signal LO, and when " t "=t30, promptly when signal LO reaches voltage Vth, and MOSFET Q2 conducting.
When " t "=t4, input signal HIN remains on low level, and input signal LIN drops to low level.Switch SW 3 disconnects thus, and switch SW 4 is connected.Output signal LO descends with the time constant of being determined by grid capacitor C2 and the resistor 4 of MOSFET Q2.MOSFET Q2 rests on conducting state and becomes up to output signal LO and be lower than the threshold voltage Vth of MOSFET Q2, and when " t "=t40, promptly becomes when being lower than voltage Vth as signal LO, and MOSFET Q2 is by (that is, disconnecting).
Then, when " t "=t5, this state becomes and the equal state that occurs when " t "=t2, and the order of state discussed above is repeated.
Fig. 8 has amplified the part of the t1 shown in Fig. 7, and has shown the variation of the terminal voltage VU of drive coil in addition.As " t "=t1, input signal HIN is when low level changes to high level, afterwards, output signal HO begins to raise at " t "=t11 place in transmission (or transfer) time of hysteresis comparator HS1, level shift circuit LS1 and output electronic switch SW1 (omitted among Fig. 7 should delivery time).
Output signal HO reaches threshold voltage Vth then, and MOSFET Q1 conducting; Yet in fact, in MOSFET Q1 changes to conducting state from cut-off state change-over time during the section, signal HO is almost constant at the voltage place of about threshold voltage Vth.Because MOSFET Q1 has changed voltage between its drain electrode and the source electrode from the state exchange by the end of conducting, thereby the grid capacitor C1 of Q1 becomes significantly much bigger (mirror effect).In more detail, when " t "=t12, output signal HO reaches threshold voltage Vth, and MOSFET Q1 begins conducting, and the terminal voltage of drive coil begins to raise.During voltage VU raise, signal HO was because mirror effect is almost constant.When " t "=t13, voltage VU reaches about High Level DC Voltage Vdc, and signal HO begins further rising because mirror effect no longer works.At this moment, become bigger in the shorter time of the rate of change of voltage VU " dV/dt " between t12 and t13.
The rate of change of voltage VU " dV/dt " is by determining based on the time constant of the feedback capacity between the grid of resistor R 1 and MOSFET Q1 and the drain electrode, thereby rate of change " dV/dt " can be set by adjusting resistor R 1 and feedback capacity.Usually, rate of change " dV/dt " is set by the value of the resistor R 1 that can be easy to adjust.For example, be equipped with at household electrical appliance under the situation of motor, resistor R 1 is adjusted to rate of change " dV/dt " and becomes about 2kV/ μ sec.
The description of front should be mentioned that the state of MOSFET Q1 is from ending the situation that is transformed into conducting; Yet, when the state of MOSFET Q1 from conducting be transformed into by the time, can set the rate of change " dV/dt " of the terminal voltage VU of drive coil, promptly the rate of change " dV/dt " under this situation can be set by adjusting resistor R 2.
Can make the setting similar to MOSFET Q2 to situation discussed above, be Q2 from can setting by adjusting resistor R 3, and Q2 is transformed into " dV/dt " that end from conducting and can set by adjusting resistor R 4 by " dV/dt " that be transformed into conducting.
As discussed above, resistor R 1, R2, R3, R4 are as setting section, and this setting section is used to set the drain electrode of MOSFET Q1 and MOSFET Q2 and the rate of change of the voltage between the source electrode.Electric current " dI/dt " is next described below.
In Fig. 8, when voltage VU changes, can observe MOSFET Q1 from rate of change by the end of the drain current " dI/dt " of the state exchange of conducting.During voltage VU changed, because mirror effect plays effect as discussed earlier, signal HO was almost constant around the threshold voltage Vth of MOSFET Q1; Yet in fact it changes a little.At the change a little of threshold voltage Vth rate of change on every side and the mutual conductance of MOSFET Q1, determined the rate of change of the drain current " dI/dt " of MOSFET Q1.Changing a little of the rate of change of signal HO around threshold voltage Vth can be determined by the grid of resistance R 1 or MOSFETQ1 and the capacitor C1 between the source electrode.In other words, the adjustment of the mutual conductance of resistance R 1 or MOSFET Q1 can be set the rate of change of the drain current " dI/dt " of MOSFET Q1.Yet, because resistor R 1 is used for the rate of change of setting voltage " dV/dt ", so capacitor C1 or mutual conductance are used to set the rate of change of drain current " dI/dt ".
The description of front should be mentioned that the state of MOSFET Q1 is from ending the situation that is transformed into conducting; Yet, when the state of MOSFET Q1 from conducting be transformed into by the time, can set the rate of change " dI/dt " of drain current, promptly the rate of change " dV/dt " under this situation can be set by adjusting capacitor C1 or mutual conductance.
Can make the setting similar to situation discussed above to MOSFET Q2, promptly Q2 " dI/dt " can set by capacitor C2 and the mutual conductance of adjusting MOSFET Q2.
As discussed above, capacitor C1, the C2 of MOSFET Q1 or MOSFET Q2, or mutual conductance can be used as setting section, this setting section are used to set the rate of change " dI/dt " of the drain current of MOSFET Q1 or MOSFET Q2.
Fig. 9 has illustrated how motor moves when t2 approaches t3 in the circuit shown in Fig. 6.More specifically, input signal HIN is transformed into low level at " t "=t2 place from high level, and input signal LIN at " t "=t3 place from the low transition to the high level.Fig. 9 has shown the operation when t2 approaches t3 thus, and promptly when output voltage LO begins to rise, output signal HO begins at " t "=t2 place to descend, and remains at " t "=t3 place and to be higher than threshold voltage Vth.In this case, if MOSFET Q2 conducting before MOSFETQ1 ends, circulating current flow to Q2 from Q1 so, thereby damages these MOSFET.
For preventing flowing of this circulating current, as the resistor R 1 of setting section and the relation between the R2 should be adjusted in advance R1>>R2, thereby " t "=t20 can appear at before " t "=t30.
The time interval between " t "=t2 (this moment, input signal HIN changed to low level from high level) and " the t "=t3 (this moment, input signal LIN changed to high level from low level) is commonly referred to idle time (or dead time).With respect to usually gate drivers 11, MOSFET8 and near time of delay of taking place in the element, be prepared this idle time long enough.Yet drive coil can not encouraged under the very long situation because continue in idle time, uses motor (its shaft power is in 20 watts to 50 watts scope) in the fan of household electrical appliance to cause for example trouble of noise and vibration sometimes.Should be minimized this idle time thus, thereby should shift to an earlier date the value of the electric capacity of conscientiously studying resistor R 1, R2 and grid capacitor.
Figure 10 has illustrated the operation when Vth1 brings up to Vth2 as the threshold voltage Vth of MOSFET Q1 itself.In this case, MOSFET Q1 becomes shorter from being conducting to the time of delay that ends, and MOSFETQ2 becomes longer from the time of delay by the end of conducting.Described preparation allows to propose a kind of brushless DC motor, the utmost point is in short-term in the circuit diagram shown in Fig. 6 even this brushless DC motor is when idle time, promptly when " t "=t2 (at " t "=t2 time input signal HIN change to low level from high level) approaches " t "=t3 (at " t "=t3 time input signal LIN change to high level from low level), do not worry MOSFET Q2 conducting before MOSFET Q1 ends yet.
As discussed above, brushless DC motor of the present invention comprises power module, this power module by will be at least by moulded resin MOSFET and gate drivers be integrated into a unit and form; With the drive circuit that comprises power module.The setting section among power module, gate drivers or the MOSFET one of packing into can be set the electrical strength of MOSFET.Aforementioned structure allow to obtain reliable brushless DC motor, and this brushless DC motor has compactness, in light weight and be easy to the feature that connects up and install.
