Motor Control Shield with BTNTA 0 Motor Control Shield introduction. Motor Control Shield overview The Motor Control Shield adds powerful motor control to the Arduino projects. The shield can be controlled with the general logic IO-Ports of a microcontroller. Either an Arduino Uno R or the XMC00 Boot Kit from Infineon can be used as the master. On board of the Motor Control Shield are two BTNTA NovalithIC TM. Each is featuring one P-channel high side MOSFET and one N-channel low side MOSFET with an integrated driver IC in one package. Due to the P- channel high side switch a charge pump is not needed. The BTNTA half-bridge is easy to control by applying logic level signals to the IN and INH pin. When applying a PWM to the IN pin the current provided to the motor can be controlled with the duty cycle of the PWM. With an external resistor connected between the SR pin and the slew rate of the power switches can be adjusted. The Motor Control Shield can be easily connected to any Arduino board or the XMC00 Boot Kit via headers.

Key features The Motor Control Shield has the following features: An Arduino Uno R, XMC00 Boot Kit, or similar board connected to the shield can control the two halfbridges via the general IO pins.

The user can solder them by himself. The pin headers are not expensive, but the through whole soldering is a not insignificant cost factor. o The size of the DC-link capacity (C in the schematics and C0 in the application circuit.) with 000µF is for most applications oversized. It is a worst case scenario if a 00W motor is connected to the shield. The capacity can be replaced by smaller capacities when using less powerful motors. Equation 0 in the BTN0 / /0 / High Current PN Half Bridge NovalithIC TM (Rev. 0., 0-0-) Application Note should be used to calculate the value of the DC-link capacity.

Motor Control Shield with BTNTA. Block diagram of a bi-directional Motor Control As a starting point for the Motor Control Shield, the application block diagram shown in Figure was used. For simplicity reasons the conductivity L was removed in the Shield schematics. In the application block diagram the INH pins of both half-bridges are connected to one IO-port of the microcontroller. To be more flexible in the usage of the Motor Control Shield each INH of the two half-bridges is connected to a separate IO pin.

Motor Control Shield with BTNTA 0 Motor Control Shield board description For a safe and sufficient motor control design, discrete components are needed. Some of them must be dedicated to the motor application and some to the NovalithIC. Figure, Figure and Figure show the schematics plus the corresponding layout of the Motor Control Shield. Due to the possibility of using the Shield with loads which can draw a current of up to A the connectors Vbat,, OUT and OUT are designed as solid mm through whole connectors. This provides the possibility to connect plugs which are capable of such high currents. Nevertheless the thermal performance of the Shield itself limits the possible current which should be applied to the Motor Control Shield to 0 A. To reach the best performance in terms of parasitic inductance and EMC a plane, with maximal size was designed.. Schematics In Figure the schematics of the Motor Control Shield is shown. The schematics are based on the application circuit in the BTNTA Data Sheet. Figure Schematics Motor Control Shield with BTNTA Users Manual V0., 0-0

Motor Control Shield with BTNTA Figure Motor Control Shield with BTNTA Bill of Material (BOM) 0. Important design and layout rules: The basis for the following design and layout recommendations is the parasitic inductance of electrical wires and design guidelines as described in Chapter three and four of the Application Note BTN0 / /0 / High Current PN Half Bridge NovalithIC TM (Rev. 0., 0-0-). C, so called DC-link capacitor: This electrolytic capacitor is required to keep the voltage ripple at the Vspin of the NovalithIC low during switching operation (the applied measurement procedure for the supply voltage is described in Chapter. of the Application Note). It is strongly recommended that the voltage ripple at the NovalithIC Vs-pin to the -pin is kept below V peak to peak. The value of C must be aligned accordingly. See therefore Equation (0) in the Application Note. Most electrolytic capacitors are less effective at cold temperatures. It must be assured that C is also effective under the worst case conditions of the application. The layout is very important too. As shown in Figure, the capacitor C must be positioned with very short wiring close to the NovalithIC. This must be done to keep the parasitic inductors of the PCB-wires as small as possible. Users Manual V0., 0-0
Motor Control Shield with BTNTA 0 0 0 C/C: This ceramic capacitors support C to keep the supply voltage ripple low and cover the fast transients between the Vs-pin and the -pin. The value of these ceramic capacitors must be chosen so that fast Vs-ripples at the NovalithIC do not exceed V peak to peak. The layout wiring for C/C must be shorter than for C to the NovalithIC to keep the parasitic PCB-wire inductance as small as possible. In addition the parasitic inductance could be kept low by placing at least two vias for the connection to the -layer. C/C: These ceramic capacitors are important for EMI in order to avoid entering RF into the NovalithIC as much as possible. Good results have been achieved with a value of 0 nf. In terms of layout, it is important to place these capacitors between OUT and Vs without significant additional wiring from C/C to the Vs- and OUT-line. C/C: These ceramic capacitor help to improve the EMC immunity and the ESD performance of the application. Good results have been achieved with a value of 0 nf. To keep the EMC and ESD out of the board, the capacitor is most effective when positioned directly next to the board connector. In addition, the parasitic inductance could be kept low by placing at least two vias for the connection to the layer. Other components: IC0, D and R: Reverse polarity protection.

R/R: Resistors to generate a current sensing voltage from the IS current. C0/C: Ceramic capacitors for EMC immunity improvement. connection with at least two vias. A good value is nf. In case the current should be measured during the PWM-phase this capacitor must be adapted to the ON-time inside the PWM-phase.

Pin assignment To use the Motor Control Shield the necessary control signals can be applied directly at the Arduino TM connectors. There is no need to use an Arduino or XMC 00 Boot Kit to get the Motor Control Shield into an application. The control pins are logic level inputs which can be driven by any other microcontroller or with logic level signals. Besides the supply voltage Vbat has to be provided to the Vbat connector.

Motor Control Shield with BTNTA 0 0 BTNTA overview The BTNTA used in the Motor Control Shield is an integrated high current half-bridge for motor drive applications. It is part of the NovalithIC family containing one p-channel high side MOSFET and one n- channel low side MOSFET with an integrated driver IC in one package. Due to the p-channel high side switch the need for a charge pump is eliminated thus minimizing EMI. Interfacing to a microcontroller is made easy by the integrated driver IC which features logic level inputs, diagnosis with current sense, slew rate adjustment, dead time generation and protection against overtemperature, undervoltage, overcurrent and short circuit. The BTNTA provides a cost optimized solution for protected high current PWM motor drives with very low board space consumption..

Motor Control Shield with BTNTA 0 0 Getting Started. Target applications The application targeted by the BTNxx devices is brushed DC Motor Control. Besides Motor Control any other inductive, resistive and capacitive load within the electrical characteristics of the NovalithIC TM can be driven by the BTNxx. In the Motor Control Shield two BTNTA are used. Each is capable of driving up to 0 A. The limited thermal performance of the Shield PCB limits the recommended maximum current to 0 A.. Typical target application With the Motor Control Shield either two mid power uni-directional DC-brushed motors or one bi-directional brushed motor (with the two half-bridges used in H-bridge configuration) can be driven. The half-bridges are controlled via the IN (Input) and INH (Inhibit) pins. The slew rate of the high frequency PWM can be adjusted by connecting an external resistor between the SR pin and. The BTMTA also provides a sense current at the IS pin. The Power Shield provides a fast and easy access to brushed DC motor solutions of up to 00 W... Getting started: Shield Choose a mid-power, brushed DC motor. Choose a DC adapter. The nominal input of the Power Shield is V DC.
