FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

FUNCTIONAL INTERNAL BLOCK DESCRIPTION

Step motor driver C is PWM’d via an input from the digital

subsystem on the CPWMA/CDCPWM terminal. This signal is

approximately 20 kHz to 40 kHz. There are pull-downs on the

PWM input terminals so that DC motor drive C will default to

a safe condition in the event of a connection failure.

STEP MOTOR DRIVER

A step motor driver can be configured as a DC motor driver

(refer to preceding paragraph DC Motor Drivers) or, when

B+NOM ≤ 20 V, as a unipolar step driver. Serial input

configuration frame bit 4 determines the mode: 0 = step

mode, 1 = DC mode. A step motor driver will only be used in

B+ = 12 V to 20 V applications.

Note It is possible to use the step motor driver with

B+ > 20 V if the step motor is driven from a separate supply

that is

≤ 20 V.

The step motor driver on the 34921 is a unipolar, voltage-

mode wave drive circuit employing synchronous rectification.

The centertap of each phase-counterphase pair is connected

to B+.

Two PWM signals are sent directly from the digital

subsystem. The CPWMA/CDCPWM terminal provides the

PWM signal for the A and A outputs. The CPWMB terminal

provides the PWM signal for the B and B outputs. The step

motor driver employs synchronous rectification to control

substrate currents. In synchronous rectification, when an

output is turned off, the counterphase output MOSFET is

turned on to maintain current continuity. In order to avoid a

large shoot-through current, there is a dead time delay

(tdelay) between phase off and counterphase on. Refer to

Figure 5, Step Motor Crossover Delay Timing, page 16.

VBOOST CHARGE PUMP

The high-side MOSFETs in the DC motor H-bridges and

the external GATEOUT switch need a gate voltage in excess

of B+, which is provided by the VBOOST supply. The

VBOOST regulator is a charge pump, switching directly off

the B+ supply and operating at 200 kHz.

EXTERNAL N-FET GATE DRIVE OUTPUT

The GATEOUT terminal is an output for a high-side

N-channel MOSFET gate drive. The output will be used to

drive an external high-side MOSFET switch (see figure

below). When enabled, GATEOUT will be connected to the

Vb supply. The edge rates when switching the transistors

must be controlled so that shoot-through current does not

affect B+.

CLOCKING SCHEMES

There are two basic clocking schemes that can be used

while clocking data into the MC34921 IC. One has 16 rising

edges of SCLK while CE is in a logic low state and the other

has 15 rising edges of SCLK. In the 15 SCLK clocking

scheme, the input data and output data are latched on the

same clock edge. In the timing diagram on page 16, the

numbers on the MOSI line are the bits that will be clocked into

the input shift register at the rising edge of SCLK. They are

drawn occurring before SCLK to account for the required

setup time (minimum 15ns). The numbers on the MISO line

are the bits that will be clocked out at the rising edge of SCLK.

They are drawn occurring after SCLK to account for the

output delay from the rising edge of SCLK (maximum 40ns).

The numbers on the SCLK line are for reference only.

Note: when using the 15 bit clocking method with exactly

one rising edge of SCLK when CE is in a logic high state, the

output data to be sent out is latched at the same time the

IREQ bit is latched in. The next frame following the assertion

of the IREQ bit is the IREQ data. I.e., the frame after the

sending of the IREQ bit will have the data from the IREQ

reporting of the DONE bit after the completion of an A/D

conversion: the DONE bit is sent out every time a conversion

completes. This requires the user to hold the MOSI pin in a

low state when it is not being used to transmit data. Refer to

Figure 4, Serial Interface Timing and Figure 5, Step Motor

Crossover Delay Timing

SUPERVISORY (RST) FUNCTION

Supervisory Circuitry

The supervisor circuitry provides control of the RST line, an

open drain signal, based on system operating conditions

monitored by the 34921 IC. V5.0, V3.3, VCORE, B+, and

thermal shutdown detectors in various parts of the chip are

monitored for error conditions. Because other devices in the

system may trigger a reset, the RST line itself is also

monitored, but the supervisor circuitry controls all reset

timing, including externally generated resets. Driving the RST

line low causes the system to be held in the reset state. V5.0,
