The MCT8317A provides a single-chip, code-free sensorless trapezoidal solution for customers requiring high speed operation (up to 3 kHz electrical) or very fast start-up time (< 50 ms) for 12-V brushless-DC motors up to 5-A peak current. The MCT8317A integrates three ½-bridges with 24-V absolute maximum capability and a very low RDS(ON) of 130 mΩ (high-side + low-side FETs). MCT8317A also features an LDO that generates a 3.3-V voltage rail and can source up to 20 mA to power external circuits.
Sensorless trapezoidal control is highly configurable through register settings ranging from motor start-up behavior to closed loop operation. Register settings for MCT8317A can be set in non-volatile EEPROM, which allows the device to operate stand-alone once it has been configured. The device receives a speed command through a PWM input, analog voltage, variable frequency square wave or I2C command. There are a large number of protection features integrated into the MCT8317A, intended to protect the device, motor, and system against fault events.
