7.6.7 Calibration Routine

The DRV2624 has a calibration routine that automatically populates all critical parameters required for successfully driving a specific actuator (the one connected and being calibrated) in closed-loop. Variation occurs between different actuators even if the actuators are of the same model. To maintain desired results, TI recommends that the calibration routine be run at least once for each actuator.

The calibration engine requires a number of parameters as inputs before the calibration can be executed. When the inputs are configured, the calibration routine can be executed. After calibration execution occurs, the output parameters are written over the specified register locations. Figure 7-13 shows all of the required inputs and generated outputs. To maintain proper auto-resonance operation, the LRA actuator type requires more input parameters than the ERM. The LRA parameters are ignored when the device is in ERM mode.

DRV2624 Calibration-Engine Functional DiagramFigure 7-13 Calibration-Engine Functional Diagram

For proper calibration results, the calibration waveform must be executed long enough to achieve a steady acceleration. Therefore, the DRV2624 device has a configurable amount of time for the calibration waveform, which can be selected by the AUTO_CAL_TIME[1:0] parameter. Additionally, the option to control the calibration time by using a trigger is provided to accommodate for the cases that require longer times than those allowed by the AUTO_CAL_TIME parameter. Under the triggered control option, the calibration starts executing after the initial trigger, and then stops execution once a stop trigger is received. At that point the output values of the calibration is populated. Note that a minimum duration is required for the calibration to work properly.

Table 7-1 Calibration Routine Behavior Under Different AUTO_CAL_TIME Selections
AUTO_CAL_TIME[1:0] ACTION COMMENTS
0 250ms calibration waveform
1 500ms calibration waveform
2 1s calibration waveform
3 Trigger controlled

Can be triggered either using the GO bit or externally. To use the external trigger, the TRIG_PIN_FUNC parameter must be configured appropriately.

In this case the minimum duration is 1s, otherwise the result of the calibration can be corrupted.

The following instructions list the step-by-step register configuration for auto-calibration.

  1. Apply a valid supply voltage to the DRV2624 device, and then pull the NRST pin high. The supply voltage allows for adequate drive voltage of the selected actuator.
  2. Write a value of 0x03 to the MODE parameter to set the auto-calibration routine.
  3. Populate the input parameters required by the auto-calibration engine:
    1. LRA_ERM — selection depends on desired actuator.
    2. FB_BRAKE_FACTOR[2:0] — A value of 3 is valid for most actuators.
    3. LOOP_GAIN[1:0] — A value of 2 is valid for most actuators.
    4. RATED_VOLTAGE[7:0] — See the Section 7.6.2.1 section for calculating the correct register value.
    5. OD_CLAMP[7:0] — See the Section 7.6.2.2 section for calculating the correct register value.
    6. AUTO_CAL_TIME[1:0] — A value of 3 is valid for most actuators.
    7. DRIVE_TIME[3:0] — See the Section 7.6.1.1 for calculating the correct register value.
    8. SAMPLE_TIME[1:0] — A value of 3 is valid for most actuators.
    9. BLANKING_TIME[3:0] — A value of 1 is valid for most actuators.
    10. IDISS_TIME[3:0] — A value of 1 is valid for most actuators.
    11. ZC_DET_TIME[1:0] — A value of 0 is valid for most actuators.
  4. Write a 1 to the GO bit to start the auto-calibration process. When auto calibration is complete, the GO bit automatically clears. The auto-calibration results are written in the respective registers as shown in Figure 7-13.
  5. Check the status of the DIAG_RESULT bit to maintain that the auto-calibration routine is complete without faults.
  6. Evaluate system performance with the auto-calibrated settings. Note that the evaluation occurs during the final assembly of the device because the auto-calibration process can affect actuator performance and behavior. If any adjustment is required, the inputs can be modified and this sequence can be repeated. If the performance is satisfactory, the user can do any of the following:
    1. Repeat the calibration process upon subsequent power ups.
    2. Store the auto-calibration results in host processor memory and rewrite them to the DRV2624 device upon subsequent power ups. The device retains these settings when in STANDBY mode or when the EN pin is low.
