A motor drive controller for driving a brushless direct current motor includes a motor drive unit; a magnetic sensor for detecting a magnetic field generated by rotation of the motor and outputting the magnetic field as each of magnetic signals; and a bias adjuster for adjusting and outputting a bias voltage used in magnetic field detection by the magnetic sensor. The bias adjuster adjusts the bias voltage to a second voltage value lower than a first voltage value that allows the magnetic sensor to detect the magnetic field in a first period after a phase change of the magnetic signals. The bias adjuster also adjusts the bias voltage to a first voltage value in a second period from an end of the first period until a subsequent phase change of the magnetic signals.

The invention discloses a pre-driving circuit of a single-phase brushless direct current motor, which is characterized in that a pre-driver does not directly output GP1, but directly controls the on and off of a second PMOS (P-channel Metal Oxide Semiconductor) tube through the cooperation of a first driving pin FG and a first resistor between the source electrode and the grid electrode of the second PMOS tube, and meanwhile, the on and off of the second PMOS tube are controlled through the cooperation of the first driving pin FG and the first resistor; on and off of the first PMOS tube are controlled by a first resistor between the source electrode and the grid electrode of the third NMOS tube and the source electrode and the grid electrode of the first PMOS tube, so that a GP1 pin and a corresponding driving circuit on the pre-driver are reduced, and furthermore, GN1 and GN2 drive the two NMOS tubes respectively while the GN1 and GN2 drive the two NMOS tubes respectively. When an upper tube and a lower tube of a preceding stage GN1 / GN2 are both turned off, voltage drop on a third resistor is indirectly sampled through a second resistor between a source electrode and a grid electrode of the preceding stage GN1 / GN2, that is, current sampling is completed by multiplexing GN1 / GN2, so that CS pins on a pre-driver are reduced; therefore, the number of pins of the pre-driver and board-level connecting lines are reduced while the driving and current detection functions are reserved, and then the packaging cost of the pre-driver is optimized.
