1 is a block diagram of a motor driving device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

A motor driving device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is composed of a first position detection sensor 110, a second position detection sensor 120, and a controller 130, and a third position detection sensor 140 It may include a plurality of position detection sensors, connectors, inverters, position detection units, failure detection units, and the like.

The first position detection sensor 110 detects the position of the motor 200 and self-diagnoses whether or not there is a failure.

More specifically, a position signal is output by detecting the position of the motor 200 of the first position detection sensor 110, and a self-diagnosis signal is output through self-diagnosis. Without a separate module or device for diagnosing a failure of the first position detection sensor 110, the first position detection sensor 110 itself can diagnose whether or not it has a failure and output a self-diagnosis signal to the outside. The first position detection sensor 110 may be a position detection sensor having an ASIL level. ASIL (Automotive Safety Integrity Level) is an automotive safety integrity level, which is a risk classification level for the functional safety of vehicles. It means that there is no unreasonable risk from hazards due to malfunctioning operation of electrical or electronic systems, and in order to comply with ISO 26262, a distinction is made on the basis of risk potential and acceptability. ASIL grades are classified into A, B, C, and D, with ASIL A being the lowest grade and ASIL D representing the highest level of vehicle risk. For example, parts with the highest impact risk, such as airbags, anti-lock brakes, and power steering, may require ASIL D ratings, while rear lighting may require ASIL A ratings. ASIL grades are classified by measuring three variables: severity, probability of occurrence, and controllability. The first position detection sensor may be a sensor having an AISL B grade or higher.

The second position detection sensor 120 detects the position of the motor 200 .

More specifically, the second position detection sensor 120 detects the position of the motor 200 and outputs a position signal. Unlike the first position detection sensor 110, the second position detection sensor 120 may be a position detection sensor that does not self-diagnose whether or not it is faulty. The second position detection sensor 120 may detect the position of the motor 200 at a position different from that of the first position detection sensor 110 or in a direction different from that of the first position detection sensor 110 . The second position detection sensor 120 may be a position detection sensor having a QM level. The QM (Quality Management) grade is a grade that does not require additional risk reduction measures beyond the industry acceptable quality system. is not graded In order to determine whether the second position detection sensor 120 having a QM level is out of order, supplementation of an additional device is required.

Alternatively, the first position detection sensor ( ) and the second position detection sensor ( ) may be position detection sensors having an ASIL level, but may be position detection sensors having different ASIL levels. At this time, the first position detection sensor ( ) may have a higher ASIL level than the second position detection sensor ( ). For example, the first position detection sensor ( ) may be a position detection sensor having an ASIL B grade, and the second position detection sensor ( ) may be a position detection sensor having an ASIL A grade.

The controller 130 receives a position signal and a self-diagnosis signal from the first position detection sensor 110 and receives a position signal from the second position detection sensor 120 .

More specifically, the controller 130 receives a position signal and a self-diagnosis signal from the first position detection sensor 110, determines whether the first position detection sensor is normal according to the fixed self-diagnosis signal, and determines whether the first position detection sensor is normal. When the position detection sensor is normal, it is determined whether the second position detection sensor is out of order using the position signal of the first position detection sensor.

The position signal and the self-diagnosis signal of the first position detection sensor 110 may be input to the control unit 130 as one signal. At this time, in the signal, the position signal may have a pulse, and the self signal may have a tick signal. The control unit 130 may classify and use a location signal and a self signal from one signal. When the self signal is implemented as a tick signal, when the tick signal is input, it is determined to be normal, and when the tick signal is not input or is not input for a certain period of time or more, it may be determined that a failure has occurred. In addition, various types of signals may be used as self-diagnosis signals. In addition, it is natural that the location signal and the self-diagnosis signal may be input to the control unit 130 as separate signals.

The control unit 130 controls the motor 200 by generating a control signal for controlling the motor 200 using the position signal of the first position detection sensor and the position signal of the second position detection sensor. The displacement or speed of the motor 200 may be controlled using the current position and position change of the motor 200 . An actuator for driving the motor 200 may be included, and the controller 130 may control the actuator to drive the motor 200 .

In order to control the motor 200, the control unit 130 controls the motor 200 by using each position signal when the position signal of the first position detection sensor and the position signal of the second position detection sensor are normal. reliability can be ensured. If the position signal is used to control the motor 200 without verification, it may be difficult to secure reliability of the motor 200 . In particular, when the motor 200 requires high stability, verification of the position signal may be essential.

A predetermined ASIL level may be required for a position detection sensor including the first position detection sensor 110 and the second position detection sensor 120 . A position detection sensor capable of self-diagnosis may be required, and for example, ASIL B grade or higher may be required. At this time, when all position detection sensors are applied as position detection sensors having an ASIL level, a lot of cost is incurred, and a connection line for receiving each self-diagnosis signal is additionally required.

In order to solve this problem, the control unit 130 first determines whether the first position detection sensor 110 is normal according to the self-diagnosis signal received from the first position detection sensor 110 . For example, if the self-diagnosis signal is a tick signal, whether the self-diagnosis signal is input or not may determine whether it is out of order or normal. When the first position detection sensor 110 is normal according to the self-diagnosis signal, the controller 130 trusts the position signal of the first position detection sensor 110 and can use it to control the motor 200 . Based on the reliability of the position signal of the first position detection sensor 110, it is determined whether the position signal of the second position detection sensor 120 is out of order. Based on the position signal of the first position detection sensor 110, it can be compared with the second position detection sensor 120 to determine whether the second position detection sensor 120 is out of order.

The position signal of the first position detection sensor 110 and the position signal of the second position detection sensor 120 may be position signals having a predetermined phase difference. The first position detection sensor 110 and the second position detection sensor 120 may be hall sensors spaced apart from each other at a predetermined angle in order to detect the position of the rotating motor 200 . The first position detection sensor 110 and the second position detection sensor 120 may be positioned apart from each other at an angle of 120 degrees.

The control unit 130 shifts the phase of the position signal of the first position detection sensor 110, which is determined to be normal, to the phase of the position signal of the second position detection sensor 120, and compares the phase to determine whether the second position detection sensor is out of order. can judge Since the first position detection sensor 110 and the second position detection sensor 120 detect the position of the same motor 200, the phases are different, but the magnitude of the signal or the characteristic point of the magnitude may be the same. Using this point, the phase of the position signal of the first position detection sensor 110, which is determined to be normal, is shifted to the phase of the position signal of the second position detection sensor 120 and compared thereto. can determine whether When the position signal of the first position detection sensor 110 and the position signal of the second position detection sensor 120 have a phase difference of 120 degrees, the position signal of the first position detection sensor 110 is phase shifted by 120 degrees, Compared with the position signal of the second position detection sensor 120, when the difference between the position signal of the first position detection sensor 110 and the position signal of the second position detection sensor 120 is below the threshold value, that is, within the normal range , the second position detection sensor 120 may determine that it is normal. The normal range can be set according to the specifications of the user or hall sensor, the specifications of the motor control device or motor, or the degree of accuracy required.

It may include a third position detection sensor 140 that senses the position of the motor 200 together with the first position detection sensor 110 and the second position detection sensor 120 . At this time, the position signals of the first to third position detection sensors may have a phase difference of 120 degrees. As shown in FIG. 2, the first to third position detection sensors 140 measure the position of the motor 200 and output a position signal, but only the first position detection sensor 110 can output a self-diagnosis signal. . Alternatively, two of the three position detection sensors may output self-diagnosis signals. The motor 200 may be a rotary motor, and the first to third position detection sensors 140 may have a phase difference of 120 degrees. The third position detection sensor 140 is a position detection sensor corresponding to the second position detection sensor 120 and may be a Hall sensor having a QM grade. A detailed description of the third position detection sensor 140 corresponds to a detailed description of the second position detection sensor 120, and thus, duplicate descriptions will be omitted.

In response to the process of determining whether the first position detection sensor 110 is out of order and determining whether the second position detection sensor 120 is out of order by using the position signal of the first position detection sensor 110, It is possible to determine whether the third position detection sensor 140 is out of order by using the position signal of the first position detection sensor 110 . That is, by shifting the phase of the position signal of the first position detection sensor 110 to the phase of the position signal of the third position detection sensor 140 and comparing the phase, it is possible to determine whether the third position detection sensor is out of order. Alternatively, the phase of the position signal of the second position detection sensor 120 determined to be normal through comparison with the position signal of the first position detection sensor 110 is converted into the phase of the position signal of the third position detection sensor 140. It is also possible to determine whether or not the third position detection sensor is out of order by performing a transition and comparison.

The controller 130 may control the motor 200 when all of the first to third position detection sensors 110, 120, and 140 are normal. When all of the first to third position detection sensors 110, 120, and 140 are normal, each position signal is reliable, and the motor 200 can be controlled using the corresponding position signal. When at least one position detection sensor among the first to third position detection sensors 110, 120, and 140 is out of order, the motor may be safely operated or stopped.

As described above, by using one position detection sensor capable of self-diagnosis, it is possible to determine whether other types of position detection sensors that do not perform self-diagnosis are out of order. Through this, by using a Hall sensor having one ASIL level, even if a Hall sensor having a QM level rather than an ASIL level is used, functional safety can be satisfied. In addition, connection lines for receiving self-diagnosis signals can be reduced. Through this, it is possible to efficiently utilize the area and reduce the cost.

3 is a comparative example of the present invention, which may be a motor control device for controlling two motors. Each motor is composed of an actuator, each actuator is composed of a 3-phase BLDC motor, 3 hall sensors (QM) are used to detect the position of the rotor, and the position signal of the hall sensor is received through the connector to Each phase, i.e. position, is detected. A motor control signal for controlling the motor is applied to the inverter using the detected position, and is provided as motor driving power through the operation of the inverter. Here, the inverter may include one or more high-side switches and one or more low-side switches that are complementary to each other. The control unit can drive the motor using the microcontroller motor control signal.

When there is no functional safety requirement, there is no problem in controlling the motor using a hall sensor of the QM level, but if there is a requirement to satisfy the ASIL level, the safety goal must be achieved. There are limitations in using QM class hall sensors for fault detection. Therefore, it is necessary to use a Hall sensor that meets the ASIL level, but a Hall sensor that meets the ASIL level is more expensive than QM products and requires an additional connection line.

4 is a motor control device according to an embodiment of the present invention corresponding to the comparative example of the present invention of FIG. 3 .

To satisfy functional safety with motor position detection, each actuator can use two Hall sensors (QM) to detect motor position and one Hall sensor (ASIL) to detect motor position and faults. The hall sensor (ASIL) signal is input to the connector through one connection line, and is divided into a self-diagnosis signal and a position signal. The position signal for driving the motor is input to the position detection unit (Input Capture) through three connection lines, and the self-diagnosis signal is input to the fault detection unit (ADC) through one connection line. It is possible to determine whether or not the three hall sensors are out of order by using the self-diagnosis signal and the position signal inputted respectively. That is, functional safety for all Hall sensors can be satisfied by adding only one connection line for the self-diagnosis signal. In other words, functional safety can be satisfied with only one ADC interface instead of three.

5 is a process of determining whether a Hall sensor is out of order, first, a motor control phase reference is generated (S1), and motor driving power is supplied (S2). The motor control phase reference can be generated as shown in FIG. 6 . The self-diagnosis signal of the first hall sensor (ASIL) is monitored (S3) through the fault detection unit (ADC) to determine whether the self-diagnosis signal is within a normal range (S4). When the self-diagnosis signal satisfies the normal range, the motor position signal of the first Hall sensor (ASIL) is monitored through a position detection unit (Input capture) (S5). The position signals of the first to third Hall sensors may be as shown in FIG. 6 , and a comparison signal is generated by phase-shifting the position signal of the first Hall sensor ASIL (S6), and the second Hall sensor QM and The position signal of the third Hall sensor (QM) is monitored (S7) through a position detection unit (Input capture), and compared with the phase shift signal to determine whether it is within a normal range (S8). If it is within the normal range, the position signals of the first to third hall sensors are normal, and the motor is driven (S9) based on this. As a result of the determination in S4 or S8, when the position signal of at least one hall sensor is out of the normal range, the power supply to the motor is cut off (S10).

A motor control device according to another embodiment of the present invention includes signals from a first Hall sensor, a second Hall sensor and a third Hall sensor having different ASIL levels from the first Hall sensor, and signals from the first to third Hall sensors. and a control unit for receiving and controlling a motor, wherein the control unit receives a position signal and a self-diagnosis signal from the first Hall sensor, receives position signals from the second Hall sensor and the third Hall sensor, and control the motor A detailed description of each component of the motor control device according to another embodiment of the present invention corresponds to the detailed description of the motor control device of FIGS. 1 to 6, and thus, redundant descriptions will be omitted.

The control unit may determine whether the second and third Hall sensors are out of order by using a position signal of the first Hall sensor according to the fixed self-diagnosis signal. According to the fixed self-diagnosis signal, it is determined whether the first hall sensor is out of order, and when the first hall sensor is normal, the position signal of the first hall sensor is phase-shifted and compared with the position signals of the second and third hall sensors. It is possible to determine whether the second and third Hall sensors are out of order by determining whether they are within the normal range. If all are normal, the motor can be controlled using each position signal, and if at least one is out of order, the motor can be stopped.

7 is a flowchart of a motor driving method according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 8 and 9 are flowcharts of a motor driving method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The detailed description of each step of FIGS. 7 to 9 corresponds to the detailed description of the motor driving device of FIGS. 1 to 6 , and thus, redundant descriptions will be omitted.

In controlling the motor, it is determined whether the first position detection sensor is out of order using the self-diagnosis signal received from the first position detection sensor in step S11, and as a result of the determination in step S11, the first position detection sensor is normal. In this case, in step S12, the phase of the position signal received from the first position detection sensor is shifted to the phase of the position signal of the second position detection sensor, and compared with the position signal of the second position detection sensor, the second position detection Determine if the sensor is faulty.

It may include a third position detection sensor as well as the first position detection sensor and the second position detection sensor. The position signals of the first to third position detection sensors may have a phase difference of 120 degrees. As a result of the determination in step S11, when the first position detection sensor is normal, the phase of the position signal received from the first position detection sensor in step S21 is shifted to the phases of the position signals of the second position detection sensor and the third position detection sensor. And, by comparing the position signal of the second position detection sensor and the position signal of the third position detection sensor, it is possible to determine whether the second position detection sensor and the third position detection sensor are out of order.

According to the result of determining whether the first to third position detection sensors are out of order, if all of the first to third position detection sensors are normal in step S31, the motor is controlled, and at least one of the first to third position detection sensors is operated. When the position detection sensor is out of order, the motor can be stopped.

Here, the first position detection sensor is a hall sensor having an ASIL level for detecting the position of the motor, and the second position detection sensor or the third position detection sensor is a hall sensor having a QM level for detecting the position of the motor. can

As described above, it is possible to determine whether the first to third position sensors are out of order only with the self-diagnosis signal of the first position detection sensor. In this way, it is possible to detect failures of other QM-level sensors and control motors using ASIL-level sensor signals. Through this, it is possible to reduce the cost compared to the case of using only the ASIL grade sensor.
