General Description
The MDC020-050101 driver is designed to drive DC Brushless motors at currents of up to 10A(peak)
and 50V. The driver operates in the basic open loop configuration with 120° DC Brushless motors.
The driver is protected against over current, hall sensor error and under voltage. When an error oc-
curs, a fault output is turned low logic ‘0’ to notify the user. An external voltage (0.75-5VDC) is used
to control the speed of the motor. The direction of the motor can be preset by the direction control
input.The freewheelinput overridesall otherinputs intothe driver.With twoconnector arraysarranged
in a 2.54 mm pattern, it allows easy integration and connectivity to the MDC020-EVALBOARD or the
OEM-side mother board.
Fault Protection
Ashut down over current protection is provided when the motor current level exceeding the set peak
current limit is produced, 10Amax. When the over current protection is activated, the controller shuts
off the outputs to the motor. The motor can be turned back on by releasing the load and toggling the
Enable line (P2 - pin 22) or powering down and up the driver.

Motor Connection
Refer to the hookup diagram for typical driver applications. When connecting a motor for the first
time, connect the hall sensor wires (5 of them) to the driver. DO NOT CONNECT THE PHASES
YET. Turn on power and rotate the motor by hand. If the Ready output is a logic “0” (0V), the hall
phases are incorrectly wired. If the Ready output is a logic “1” (5V) then the hall wires are connected
correctly. Power the unit down and proceed to connect the motor phases. If the motor does not run
or runs erratically, power down and make sure the phases are connected correctly. There are six
different ways to connect the phase wires, and normally only two will allow the motor to rotate, but
only one is correct. If the direction of the motor is changed and the no-load current of the motor is
approximately the same and the motor runs smoothly in both directions then the phase wires are
correct. The wiring of the motor phases should be separated from the hall and input connections to
not allow a possible source of interference.
P1 Terminal Descriptions
VHV
This pin (P1 - pin 7,8) is the voltage supply for the driver with respect to 0VDC (P1 - pin 14, 16). A
voltage from 6VDC (min) - 50VDC (max) is required to operate the driver.
5V OUT
This pin (P1 - pin 11) is the Hall Sensor Power Output: 5V @30mA maximum. Typical current draw
from hall sensors in 20mA.
PG OUT
A 5V signal pulse out is available at a rate of 4 pulses for 1 revolution of an 8-pole motor, 3 pulses for 1
revolution of a 6-pole motor, and 2 pulses for 1 revolution of a 4-pole motor.
8-pole motor RPM = 15 * PG OUT (in Hz)
6-pole motor RPM = 20 * PG OUT (in Hz)
4-pole motor RPM = 30 * PG OUT (in Hz)

P2 Terminal Descriptions
Ready
When NO fault or disable occurs, this output will be a logic “1” (5V). When a fault occurs, this output
will be a logic “0” (0V) under these conditions:
1. Invalid Sensor Input Code
2. Over Current. The driver is equipped with cycle-by-cycle current limiting or over current latch.
Enable
The motor enable feature allows the de-energized of the motor phases. A high input at this input
causes the motor to run at the given speed, while a low (open) at this input causes the motor to coast
to a stop.
Direction
The motor direction feature allows the changing of the rotation of the motor. This input should not
be changed while motion is in progress. A high input causes the motor to turn in the CW direction,
while a low (open) at this input causes the motor to turn in the CCW direction.
Current Limit
The current limit input is used for setting the motor current in the range of 0.5-10Apeak (0.25-5Acon-
tinuous).The currentlimit valueshouldbe set belowthe ratedmotorcurrent (max continuouscurrent).
To set the current limiting value, an external resistor (at least 62.5mW) between current
limiting input (P2 - pin 25) and ground (P1 - pin 14, 16) must be added as shown in table below.
Vspeed
A voltage is used to control the speed of the motor, the 0.75V to 5V voltage can be tied on Vspeed
(P2 - pin 26) with respect to 0VDC (P2- Pin 14, 16). The maximum voltage amplitude that can be
placed on Vspeed is 5.5V. A voltage exceeding 5.5V will cause damage to the driver.
