3.3 Abnormal Speed Threshold

MCT8316AT monitors the speed continuously by calculating difference in time between subsequent back EMF zero crossings. Abnormal speed lock gets triggered when motor speed exceeds abnormal speed threshold. When the motor gets stuck in the first electrical cycle, device continues to commutate at frequencies above the configured abnormal speed threshold.

It is recommended to configure the abnormal speed threshold to 150% of maximum electrical speed of the motor in Hz.
