Abstract

PURPOSE:To detect the rotating direction of a motor and control the position of the motor even if a pulse signal of one phase only is available as a position sensor signal. CONSTITUTION:An H-bridge is composed of switching devices 1, 2, 3 and 4 and a DC motor 5 is connected to the bridge. The switching devices are driven by the instructions from a microcomputer through a pre-driving circuit. A voltage divider is composed of resistors 8 and 9 and a filter is composed of a resistor 10 and a capacitor 11. Zener diodes 7 and 12 function as respective overvoltage protective circuits. A comparator 13 is a voltage comparing circuit which compares the voltages of a point C and a point D with each other and outputs a HIGH or LOW signal. While a voltage is applied to the motor, the rotating direction of the motor is detected by its terminal voltage and, while the motor is short-circuited, all the switching devices 1, 2, 3 and 4 are turned off to release the motor once and the rotating direction is detected by its induced voltage.
