Charged EVs | Toshiba introduces motor management driver IC with built-in microcontroller and gate driver

Toshiba Electronics has launched a motor management driver IC that implements a gate driver and a CPU core collectively for driving three-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motors and everlasting magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) extra effectively.

The TB9M003FG is the primary gadget in Toshiba’s Sensible Motor Management Driver (SmartMCD) household, designed for purposes together with electrical pumps, followers, physique management and thermal administration methods in automotive. The gadget makes use of Toshiba’s superior mixed-signal course of know-how, combining an Arm Cortex-M0 CPU with a vector engine co-processor and pre-drivers to regulate exterior B6 N-channel MOSFETs. For 30-1000 W BLDC motor methods, it’s housed in an HTQFP48 thermal enhanced package deal measuring 9.0 × 9.0 mm. The gadget connects on to the battery and native interconnect community (LIN) bus, has a vector engine co-processor to allow exact field-oriented management, and reduces the load on the CPU. The high-speed PWM frequency and superior management algorithms cut back vibration and noise.

Options similar to 1-shunt sensorless measurement, decreased part depend and smaller program code dimension contribute to decrease general system prices. The working temperature vary of the AEC-Q100 (Grade 0) certified gadget is -40° C to +150° C for harsh automotive environments. The SmartMCD incorporates present limiter, overcurrent, VBAT overvoltage, overtemperature safety circuitry and fault detection for undervoltage, exterior energy MOSFET open/quick failure and overheating.
