Note1: VREF2 pin is only for the TC78B042FTG.
Note2: Since the output Duty is controlled by the logic circuit, the maximum and minimum values of the
maximum conduct duty width are the same with typical values, and these values are design values.
However, the values may be different from the typical values due to a delay of the load capacity, etc.

Functional description
1. Basic operation
At startup, the motor is driven with 120° commutation. When the hall signal indicates a rotation speed (f) of
1 Hz or more, the motor rotates by estimating the rotor position. (Note)
0 (Startup) ≤ f < 1 Hz: Square-wave drive (120° commutation)
1Hz ≤ f: Sine-wave PWM drive (180° commutation)
Note: When oscillation frequency (fosc) is 9.22 MHz, the switching period from the hall signal to the
following one is about 0.167 s. Then, the frequency for one cycle is about 1 Hz ((6×1536000)/fosc).
When f is 1 Hz or more, the motor is driven according to the command of the LA pin.
When f is less than 1Hz or the motor rotation direction is reverse (according to the timing chart),
the motor is driven with 120° commutation (lead angle is 0°).
2. Reference clock and carrier frequency setting
Reference clock (oscillation frequency: fosc) is determined by the resistance (R) of the OSCR pin. It
configures PWM frequency (carrier frequency). The calculating formula is shown below. When the resistance
(R) of the OSCR pin is 22 kΩ, oscillation frequency is 9.22 MHz (typ.) and carrier frequency is 18 kHz (typ.).
Carrier frequency: FC = fosc /512 (Hz)

drive, a dead time is digitally inserted. (The dead time is also implemented at the full duty cycle during
square-wave drive.)

5. Rotation pulse output
The IC outputs rotating pulse based on the hall signal. FGC pin can switch number of pulses. One pulse per
electrical angle is generated from the hall signal of U phase. 3 pulses per electrical angle are generated by
combining each rising and falling edge of U, V, and W phases.
2.4 or 2 or 0.8 pulses per electrical angle are generated by rotating the motor with 1.5 electrical angle under
the condition that the frequency of the hall signal (U phase) is about 0.68 Hz or higher (condition: fosc = 9.22
MHz). They are not generated when f is less than 0.68 Hz. Since the pulses are not generated synchronous
with hall signal switching edge, each phase of hall signal cannot be judged by FG signal.
In STEP8, output timing of commutation signal is enabled. Approximate lead angle can be calculated as
follows; Lead angle (°) = (0.6×Duty (%))-0.94.

VSP exceeds 2.1 V and the refresh mode is activated for 1.5 ms (condition: fosc=9.22 MHz). In rotation
mode (Rotation frequency ≥ 1 Hz when fosc=9.22 MHz), the commutation signal is output immediately
after VSP exceeds 2.1 V.

Automatic lead angle control function (InPAC: Intelligent Phase Control)
The auto lead angle control function corrects based on the input signal of hall signal so that zero-cross point of
U-phase output current is 0° position in the following timing chart. It detects an output current at the
position of 0° in the timing chart, and the phase is judged once per one electrical angle, whether the lead
angle or delay angle. When the result judged 4 times continuously is matched, it changes the phase (range: 0°
to 58°) of a commutation signal output for each step (0.94°), and corrects the zero crossing position of output
current. If the result is not matched, the phase of commutation signal does not change.
Additionally, the auto lead angle control function corrects the zero-cross point of U-phase output current to 0°
position of the timing chart when the phase relation between U phase hole signal and U phase Back-EMF is
the following timing chart. Therefore, motor driving efficiency is optimized when zero-cross point of U-phase
Back-EMF and U-phase output current are corresponded. Since zero-cross point of the output current is
detected by RSI and RSG pins through shunt resistor, connection of RSI pin and RSG pin via the shunt
resistor is required to apply auto lead angle function.
Moreover, rotation speed (i.e. one electrical angular frequency of hall signal) that enables normal auto lead
angle control has a limit (Finpac). The limit value (Finpac) is determined according to PWM frequency
(carrier frequency) and phase correction value. It can be calculated by the formula of ‘Finpac=PWM
frequency×{(30+phase)/540}’. When the rotation speed exceeds this limit value, auto lead angle function may
not work.
Example: In case of PWM frequency = 16.2 kHz, phase (LAAJ pin function) = 0° setting, Finpac = 900 Hz.

In the auto lead angle setting (InPAC), when the current limiting (IDC pin function) works at the zero-cross
detecting point of output current and does not judge the auto lead angle (InPAC) phase, the current limiting
lead angle (IDC lead angle) advances the lead angle. The LA pin is set to the upper limit value of current
limiting lead angle (IDC lead angle).
In the auto lead angle setting (InPAC), when the current limiting (IDC pin function) works at zero-cross
detecting point of output current, the phase judgement cannot be performed and the auto lead angle control
(InPAC) cannot work. However, in this case, the lead angle can be advanced by the current limiting lead angle
function (IDC lead angle). Whenever the state where the auto lead angle (InPAC) cannot perform a phase
judgement by the current limiting counts 4 times, the lead angle of 1 step (0.94°) is advanced. The lead angle
counts by the auto lead angle control (InPAC) are reset when the auto lead angle control (InPAC) does not
perform the phase judgement by current limiting.
The LA pin can set the upper limit value of current limiting lead angle not to advance too much the lead angle
by this current limiting lead angle function.
The upper limit setting of the LA pin lead angle is only for the setting of this current limiting lead angle
function (IDC lead angle), so that normal auto lead function setting (InPAC) cannot be set this limit value
arbitrary. The upper limit value is 58.1°.

Lead angle limit function (LAL pin setting)
When VSP input voltage is too low to provide enough output current, zero-cross point of output current
cannot be detected accurately and auto lead angle function may not work properly because this function is
activated by detecting zero-cross point of the output current. In this case, lead angle limit function is applied.
In the auto lead angle function setting, when the input voltage (input Duty) of the VSP pin in the following
LAL pin setting is less than the setting value, the auto lead angle limiting function is fixed angle of the LAL
pin setting without working. As the fixed lead angle value is an initial value, a sine wave of the lead angle
value also starts from this fixed lead angle value when changing from a rectangle wave to a sine wave. When
the VSP pin voltage exceeds the configured voltage, the auto lead angle control function works and changes
from the fixed lead angle to a suitable lead angle by 1 step (0.94°). Moreover, in external input setting, auto
lead angle function using LAL pin is not enabled.

Reset of sine-wave (60°)
Hall signals generated from hall sensors are modulated, and a sinusoidal PWM waveform is created by
comparing the modulated waveform to a triangular waveform.
The counter measures the period from a rising edge (falling edge) of each hall signal to its next falling edge
(rising edge) (corresponding to the electrical angle of 60°). This period is then used as 60° phase data for the
next modulation. A total of 64 ticks comprise 60° phase data. The time width of a tick equals 1/64th the time
width of the immediately preceding 60° phase.

a rising edge of HU to a falling edge of HW (1) of the previous cycle. In the same way, the modulated
waveforms have an interval (2)’ that is equal to the time width between a falling edge of HW to a rising edge
of HV (2) of the previous cycle. If next edge does not appear before 64 ticks end, next 64 ticks become equal to
the next period until the next edge appear.

Phase matching between the hall signal and the modulated waveform is carried out for every zero-cross point
of the hall signal. Modulation is reset on each rising edge and falling edge of the hall signal for every 60
electrical degrees. Therefore, when the hall sensor is displaced or the motor is accelerating or decelerating,
the modulated waveform becomes discontinuous upon each reset.
Note: Square waveforms are used in the above diagram for the sake of simplicity.

Reset of sine-wave (360°)
Hall signals generated from hall sensors are modulated, and a sinusoidal PWM waveform is created by
comparing the modulated waveform to a triangular waveform.
The counter measures the period from a falling edge of HU to its next falling edge (corresponding to the
electrical angle of 360°). This period is then used as 360° phase data for the next modulation.
A total of 384 ticks comprise 360° phase data. The time width of a tick equals 1/384th the time width of the
immediately preceding 360° phase.

Modulation is reset on each falling edge of the hall signal for every 360 electrical degrees. Therefore, when the

8. Error detections
(1)
Overcurrent protection (IDC pin)
In sine-wave drive, if the IDC pin voltage exceeds the internal reference voltage (0.5 V (typ.)), the
commutation signals are forced to output low level. The current limitation is released for each carrier
frequency.
Note: In auto lead angle setting (InPAC), when the current limiting (IDC pin function) operates at
zero-cross detection point of the output current, the angle leads by the current limiting function.
Refer to the description of LA pin setting.
In square-wave drive, if the IDC pin voltage exceeds the internal reference voltage (0.5 V (typ.)), the
upper phase signals (UH, VH, and WH) are forced to output low level. Lower phase signals (UL, VL,
and WL) are output according to the hall signals as shown in the timing chart. The current limitation
is released for each carrier frequency.
(2)
Error detection positive input (RES pin)
When low level is input to RES pin, the commutation outputs are disabled. When high level is input to
RES pin, the detection function is disabled after every carrier frequency and the commutation
resumes.
In stop mode (Rotation frequency < 1 Hz when fosc=9.22 MHz)), commutation resumes after VSP
exceeds a certain value (A mode: 2.1 V, B mode: 0.2 V) and the refresh function operates for 1.5 ms
(condition: fosc=9.22 MHz).
In rotational mode (Rotation frequency ≥ 1 Hz when fosc=9.22 MHz), commutation resumes after VSP
exceeds a certain value (A mode: 2.1 V, B mode: 0.2 V).
The internal counter is operating and FG signal is output during reset.
(3)
Error detection negative input (RESX pin)
When high level is input to RESX pin, the commutation outputs are disabled. When low level is input
to RESX pin, the detection function is disabled after every carrier frequency and the commutation
resumes.
In stop mode (Rotation frequency < 1 Hz when fosc=9.22 MHz)), commutation resumes after VSP
exceeds a certain value (A mode: 2.1 V, B mode: 0.2 V) and the refresh function operates for 1.5 ms
(condition: fosc=9.22 MHz).
In rotational mode (Rotation frequency ≥ 1 Hz when fosc=9.22 MHz), commutation resumes after VSP
exceeds a certain value (A mode: 2.1 V, B mode: 0.2 V).
The internal counter is operating and FG signal is output during reset.
(4)
Abnormal hall signal protection
When hall signals (internal hall amplifier outputs) are all high or all low levels, the commutation
signals output low level (i.e., gate block protection). When these signals are set to any other
combination, the commutation resumes.
When all of hall inputs (HUP, HUM, HVP, HVM, HWP, and HWM) are set open, the commutation
signals output low level (i.e., gate block protection). When these signals are set to any other
combination, the commutation resumes.
Hall signals (internal hall amplifier outputs) in sine-wave PWM drive have lath type construction.
So, in case the hall signal is output differently from the logic of an expected value, a prior state is held.
Therefore, malfunction may not occur if a slight noise and chattering generate.

(5)
Under voltage lockout (VCC monitor and VREF monitor)
While the operating voltage is outside the rated range during power-on or power-off, the commutation
outputs are set low level to prevent external power devices from damage due to short-circuits.
When VSP exceeds a certain value (A mode: 2.1 V, B mode: 0.2 V), refresh function is activated for 1.5
ms (condition: fosc=9.22 MHz) and the commutation resumes.
However, since sequence of returning power supply corresponds to the power-on sequence, the circuit
turns into unstable and the operation cannot be guaranteed.

9. Motor lock detection
Motor lock detection function disables the commutation signals when the motor does not rotate although VSP
exceeds a certain value (A mode: 2.1 V, B mode: 0.2 V) and continues to stop after the drive period (TON (s))
has passed.
Motor lock detection repeats intermitted operation consisted of drive mode and stop mode. The ratio of drive
period: stop period (TOFF(s)) is 1 : 6.
In drive period (TON(s)), when two hall input signal edges are input in the switching order and the time is
less than 0.167s (condition: fosc=9.22 MHz), the motor is in a rotation state and the lock detection state is
released.
When VSP of a certain value or less (A mode: 2.1 V, B mode: 0.2 V) is applied, reset is carried out and the
motor lock detection is released.
After stop period (TOFF(s)), refresh function is activated for 1.5 ms (condition: fosc=9.22 MHz). Then,
commutation resumes.

After drive period (TON(s))
Period of drive mode and stop mode (commutation output = low level) can be configured by an external
capacitor (TRC1) of TR pin. They can be calculated as follows;
Drive period (TON(s)) = TRC1 × (VHTR - VLTR) × 2 / I × 500 counts
Stop period (TOFF(s)) = TRC1 × (VHTR - VLTR) × 2 / I × 3000 counts
Example: When TRC1 is 0.01 μF, I(ICTR,IDTR) = 3 μA (typ.), VHTR = 3 V (typ.), and VLTR = 1.5 V (typ.). Then
TON(s) = 5 s (typ.) and TOFF(s) = 30 s (typ.).

Note: Square waveforms are used in the above diagram for the sake of simplicity.
To obtain an adequate bootstrap voltage, the low-side outputs (UL, VL and WL) are constantly turned on for
every carrier period even during the OFF term. As shown in the above enlarged view, the high-side outputs
(UH, VH and WH) have a dead time and are turned off at the ON timing of the low-side outputs.
Carrier frequency = fosc/512 (Hz)
Dead time: Td = 18/ fosc(s)
TONL = Carrier period × 8% (s) (constant regardless of the VSP input)
In square-wave drive mode, the motor speed is controlled by VSP and conduction duty cycle of TONU.
Note: At startup, the motor is driven by a square wave when the hall signal frequency is less than 1 Hz
(condition: fosc = 9.22 MHz) and when the motor rotating direction is reverse to the configuration.

IC Usage Considerations
Notes on handling of ICs
(1)
The absolute maximum ratings of a semiconductor device are a set of ratings that must not be
exceeded, even for a moment. Do not exceed any of these ratings.
Exceeding the rating(s) may cause the device breakdown, damage or deterioration, and may result
injury by explosion or combustion.
(2)
Use an appropriate power supply fuse to ensure that a large current does not continuously flow in case
of over current and/or IC failure. The IC will fully break down when used under conditions that exceed
its absolute maximum ratings, when the wiring is routed improperly or when an abnormal pulse noise
occurs from the wiring or load, causing a large current to continuously flow and the breakdown can
lead smoke or ignition. To minimize the effects of the flow of a large current in case of breakdown,
appropriate settings, such as fuse capacity, fusing time and insertion circuit location, are required.
(3)
If your design includes an inductive load such as a motor coil, incorporate a protection circuit into the
design to prevent device malfunction or breakdown caused by the current resulting from the inrush
current at power ON or the negative current resulting from the back electromotive force at power OFF.
IC breakdown may cause injury, smoke or ignition.
Use a stable power supply with ICs with built-in protection functions. If the power supply is unstable,
the protection function may not operate, causing IC breakdown. IC breakdown may cause injury,
smoke or ignition.
(4)
Do not insert devices in the wrong orientation or incorrectly.
Make sure that the positive and negative terminals of power supplies are connected properly.
Otherwise, the current or power consumption may exceed the absolute maximum rating, and
exceeding the rating(s) may cause the device breakdown, damage or deterioration, and may result
injury by explosion or combustion.
In addition, do not use any device that is applied the current with inserting in the wrong orientation or
incorrectly even just one time.
42
2018-11-27
TC78B041FNG/TC78B042FTG
Points to Remember on Handling of ICs
(1)
Over current protection circuit
Over current protection circuits (referred to as current limiter circuits) do not necessarily protect ICs
under all circumstances. If the Over current protection circuits operate against the over current, clear
the over current status immediately.
Depending on the method of use and usage conditions, such as exceeding absolute maximum ratings
can cause the over current protection circuit to not operate properly or IC breakdown before operation.
In addition, depending on the method of use and usage conditions, if over current continues to flow for
a long time after operation, the IC may generate heat resulting in breakdown.
(2)
Heat radiation design
In using an IC with large current flow such as power amplifier, regulator or driver, please design the
device so that heat is appropriately radiated, not to exceed the specified junction temperature (TJ) at
any time and condition. These ICs generate heat even during normal use. An inadequate IC heat
radiation design can lead to decrease in IC life, deterioration of IC characteristics or IC breakdown. In
addition, please design the device taking into considerate the effect of IC heat radiation with
peripheral components.
(3)
Back-EMF
When a motor reverses the rotation direction, stops or slows down abruptly, a current flow back to the
motor’s power supply due to the effect of back-EMF. If the current sink capability of the power supply
is small, the device’s motor power supply and output pins might be exposed to conditions beyond
absolute maximum ratings. To avoid this problem, take the effect of back-EMF into consideration in
system design.
