Problems solved by technology

It is difficult to shorten the above predetermined time, because the reliability of starting will be affected when the zero crossing point cannot be accurately detected
On the other hand, the forced commutation control is difficult to shorten the time required from the start of the sensorless motor until the rotor speed reaches a stable value
Therefore, it is difficult for conventional sensorless motor drives to switch from forced commutation control to self-commutation control quickly and reliably when starting a sensorless motor
This makes it difficult to start sensorless motors quickly and reliably

Abstract

Sensorless motor driving device and its driving method. A PWM control section (1) gently changes phase currents (Iu, Iv, and Iw) under a current driving control over a pre-drive circuit (2) and an output circuit (3). The pre-drive circuit (2) suspends energizing of the specific motor coil (Mu, Mv, and Mw) according to a PWM disable signal (NPWM) at PWM disable periods. A self-commutation circuit (5) performs zero crossing detection according to a BEMF detection signal (DZC) during BEMF detection periods. A count section (7) selects either a self-commutation signal (SC) or a forced commutation signal (FC) as a commutation signal (CS), whichever enters earlier, and, based on its intervals, generates the PWM disable signal (NPWM) and the BEMF detection signal (DZC). The BEMF detection period starts after the start of the PWM disable period, and finishes together with the PWM disable period at the switching of the energization phases.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a device and method for driving a sensorless motor, in particular to a device and method for controlling the state of a sensorless motor under forced commutation control. Background technique [0002] In brushless motors, electrical commutation is used instead of mechanical commutation with brushes. Electrical commutation has requirements on the rotor position, that is, the rotation angle of the rotor. Conventional brushless motors are equipped with position sensors such as Hall devices and are used to detect rotor position. For example, see Japanese Patent Application Publication Nos. 2003-174789 and 2003-244983. [0003] In a sensorless motor, the voltage induced in the motor coil during rotor rotation is detected. This voltage is hereinafter referred to as BEMF (Back Electromotive Force). Detection of rotor position using BEMF is performed without a position sensor. Since a sensorless motor has no position senso...
