Circuit description
5.1
Power stages and charge pump
The L6230 device integrates a three-phase bridge, which consists of 6 power MOSFETs
connected as shown in the block diagram (see Figure 1 on page 3), each power MOS has
an RDS(ON) = 0.73 (typical value at 25 °C) with an intrinsic fast freewheeling diode. Cross
conduction protection is implemented by using a dead time (tDT = 1 µs typical value) set by
the internal timing circuit between the turn off and turn on of two power MOSFETs in one leg
of a bridge.
Pins VSA and VSB must be connected together to the supply voltage (VS).
Using the N-channel power MOS for the upper transistors in the bridge requires a gate drive
voltage above the power supply voltage. The bootstrapped supply (VBOOT) is obtained
through an internal oscillator and few external components to realize a charge pump circuit
as shown in Figure 6. The oscillator output (pin VCP) is a square wave at 600 kHz (typically)
with 10 V amplitude. Recommended values/part numbers for the charge pump circuit are
shown in Table 7.

Logic inputs
Pins INx and ENx are TTL/CMOS and microcontroller compatible logic inputs. The internal
structure is shown in Figure 7. Typical value for turn-on and turn-off thresholds are
respectively Vth(ON)= 1.8 V and Vth(OFF)= 1.3 V.
The pin DIAG-EN has identical input structure with the exception that the drain of the
overcurrent and thermal protection MOSFET is also connected to this pin. Due to this
connection some care needs to be taken in driving this pin. The EN input may be driven in
one of two configurations as shown in Figure 8 or Figure 9. If driven by an open-drain
(collector) structure, a pull-up resistor REN and a capacitor CEN are connected as shown in
Figure 8. If the driver is a standard push-pull structure the resistor REN and the capacitor CEN
are connected as shown in Figure 9. The resistor REN should be chosen in the range from
2.2 k to 180 k. Recommended values for REN and CEN are respectively 10 k and 5.6 nF.
More information on selecting the values can be found in Section 5.3: Non-dissipative
overcurrent detection and protection.

5.3
Non-dissipative overcurrent detection and protection
The L6230 device integrates an overcurrent detection circuit (OCD) for full protection. This
circuit provides output-to-output and output-to-ground short-circuit protection as well. With
this internal overcurrent detection, the external current sense resistor normally used and its
associated power dissipation are eliminated. Figure 10 shows a simplified schematic for the
overcurrent detection circuit.
To implement the overcurrent detection, a sensing element that delivers a small but precise
fraction of the output current is implemented with each high-side power MOS. Since this
current is a small fraction of the output current there is very little additional power
dissipation. This current is compared with an internal reference current IREF. When the
output current reaches the detection threshold (typically ISOVER = 2.8 A), the OCD
comparator signals a fault condition. When a fault condition is detected, an internal opendrain MOS with a pull down capability of 4 mA connected to the pin DIAG is turned on.
The pin DIAG-EN can be used to signal the fault condition to a C and to shut down the
three-phase bridge simply by connecting the pin to an external R-C (see REN, CEN).

Figure 11 shows the overcurrent detection operation. The disable time tDISABLE before
recovering the normal operation can be easily programmed by means of the accurate
thresholds of the logic inputs. It is affected whether by CEN and REN values and its
magnitude is reported in Figure 12. The delay time tDELAY before turning off the bridge when
an overcurrent has been detected depends only by the CEN value. Its magnitude is reported
in Figure 13.
The CEN is also used for providing immunity to the pin DIAG-EN against fast transient
noises. Therefore the value of the CEN should be chosen as big as possible according to the
maximum tolerable delay time and the REN value should be chosen according to the desired
disable time.
The resistor REN should be chosen in the range from 2.2 k to 180 k. Recommended
values for the REN and CEN are respectively 100 k and 5.6 nF that allow obtaining 200 s
disable time.

Application information
Application information
Some typical applications using the L6230 device are shown in this section. A high quality
ceramic capacitor (C2) in the range of 100 nF to 200 nF should be placed between the
power pins VSA and VSB and ground near the L6230 to improve the high frequency filtering
on the power supply and reduce high frequency transients generated by the switching. The
capacitor (CEN) connected from the DIAG-EN input to ground sets the shutdown time when
an overcurrent is detected (see Section 5.3: Non-dissipative overcurrent detection and
protection). The current sensing inputs (SENSEX) should be connected to the sensing
resistors RSENSE with a trace length as short as possible in the layout. The sense resistors
should be non-inductive resistors to minimize the dI/dt transients across the resistors. To
increase noise immunity, unused logic pins are best connected to
5 V (high logic level) or GND (low logic level) (see pin description in Table 5 on page 10). It
is recommended to keep power ground and signal ground separated on the PCB.

The examples reported describe some typical application to drive a 3-phase BLDC motor
using the L6230 device.
In the first example is shown a field oriented control (FOC) system, with this method it is
possible to provide smooth and precise motor control of BLDC motors.
A six-step driving method with current control is reported in the second example, the inputs
sequence is generated by an external controller and the L6230 comparator is used to obtain
the information for the peak current control.
Finally, the third example shows how to implement a sensorless motor control system, the
information on the rotor position is achieved by BEMF zero-crossing detection.

L6230
Field oriented control driving method
In this configuration (see Figure 14) three sensing resistors are required, one for each
channel. The sensing signals coming from the output power stage are conditioned by
external operational amplifiers which provide the proper feedback signals to the AtoD
converter and the system controller. According to the feedback signals the six input lines are
generated by the controller.
Note that some filtering and level shifting RC networks should be added between the sense
resistor and the correspondent op-amp input.
The uncommitted internal comparator with open-drain output is available.

Six-step driving method with current control
In this configuration only one sense resistor is needed, the three OUT pins are connected
together to the RSENSE (see Figure 15).
The inverting input comparator CP- monitors the voltage drop across the external sense
resistor connected between the source of the three lower power MOS transistors and
ground.
As the current in the motor increases the voltage across the RSENSE increases
proportionally. When the voltage drop across the sense resistor becomes greater than the
reference voltage applied at non-inverting input CP+ the internal open-drain is switched on
pulling down the CPOUT pin.
This signal could be managed by the controller to generate the proper input sequence for
the six-step driving method with current control and select what current decay method to
implement.
When the sense voltage decreases below the CP+ voltage, the internal open-drain is
switched off and the voltage at the CPOUT pin starts to increase charging the capacitor
CCPOUT.
The reference voltage at the pin CP+ will be set according to the sense resistor value and
the desired regulated current (VCP+ ≈ RSENSE x ITARGET). A very simple way to obtain
variable voltage is the low-pass filtering of the PWM signal coming from a controller.

Six-step driving method with BEMF zero-crossing detection
The BEMF zero-crossing information can be used to evaluate the rotor position; in this way
no Hall effect sensors nor encoder are needed.
In the six-step driving mode one of the three phases is left in the high impedance state.
Comparing the voltage of this phase with the center-tap voltage we can detect the BEMF
zero-crossing.
In the shown example (see Figure 16), the OUT1 phase voltage is monitored by the CP+;
the center-tap voltage is obtained as combination of three phase voltages and monitored by
the CP- pin. Only when the OUT1 is in high impedance, the CPOUT will perform a
commutation each time a BEMF zero-crossing is detected.
In this configuration one sense resistor is needed, the three OUT pins are connected
together to the RSENSE.

Application information
Thermal management
In most applications the power dissipation in the IC is the main factor that sets the maximum
current that can be delivered by the device in a safe operating condition. Therefore, it has to
be taken into account very carefully. Besides the available space on the PCB, the right
package should be chosen considering the power dissipation. Heat-sinking can be achieved
using copper on the PCB with a proper area and thickness.
For instance, using a VFQFPN32L 5 x 5 package the typical Rth(JA) is about 42 °C/W when
mounted on a double-layer FR4 PCB with a dissipating copper area of 0.5 cm2 on the top
side plus the 6 cm2 ground layer connected through 18 via holes (9 below the IC).
Otherwise, using a PowerSO package with a copper slug soldered on a 1.5 mm copper
thickness FR4 board with a 6 cm2 dissipating footprint (copper thickness of 35 µm), the
Rth(jA) is about 35°C/W.
