Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of stepper motor driving equipment, and more specifically, to a stepper motor driving device based on an H-bridge. Background Art

[0002] The stepper motor is an open-loop control motor that converts electrical pulse signals into angular displacement or linear displacement, also known as a pulse motor. In the case of non-overload, the motor's speed and stop position depend only on the frequency and number of pulses of the pulse signal, and are not affected by load changes. When the stepper driver receives a pulse signal, it drives the stepper motor to rotate a fixed angle in the set direction, called the "step angle", and its rotation runs step by step at a fixed angle. The angular displacement can be controlled by controlling the number of pulses to achieve the purpose of accurate positioning; at the same time, the speed and acceleration of the motor rotation can be controlled by controlling the pulse frequency, thereby achieving the purpose of speed regulation. As an actuator, the stepper motor is one of the key products of mechatronics and is widely used in various automation control systems. With the development of microelectronics and computer technology, the demand for stepper motors is increasing day by day, and they are used in various fields.

[0003] A stepper motor driver is a device used to control a stepper motor. It converts the input electrical signal into a current signal suitable for the operation of the stepper motor. The main function of a stepper motor driver is to control the rotation speed, direction and position of the stepper motor.

[0004] On this basis, since the driving signal of the stepper motor usually contains frequent high-speed switching, this may cause more high-frequency noise on the power line and control line. In order to reduce the impact of these noises on the system, the stepper motor driver generally needs to have a filtering effect. In addition, considering that the stepper motor will generate electrostatic discharge during operation, especially when it moves at high speed or switches quickly, these electrostatic discharges may cause interference or damage to surrounding electronic equipment. Therefore, the stepper motor driver also needs to limit the impact of electrostatic discharge on surrounding electronic equipment.

[0005] At present, most of the stepper motor drivers on the market have complex internal circuits and are expensive. Therefore, in the field of stepper motor drive equipment, it is necessary to develop a stepper motor drive device with a simple structure, low price, anti-static and filtering effects.

[0023] Two H-bridge circuit channels control a stepper motor 8, the H-bridge motor driver chip 1 is used to control the four input ports of the same stepper motor 8 to connect to the signal source 7, and the H-bridge motor driver chip is used to control the four output ports of the same stepper motor 8 to connect to the stepper motor 8.

[0025] The H-bridge motor driver chip 1 described in this embodiment is a GC3909 chip, which has functions such as over-temperature protection, under-voltage protection, short-circuit protection, and over-current protection. It can work under a power supply voltage of 3.8-12V, and each port can provide a continuous output current of up to 1.5A. It should be noted that any motor driver chip with an H-bridge that is compatible with the GC3909 chip can replace the GC3909 chip as the H-bridge motor driver chip 1.

[0026] Specifically, the LC filter component includes a first capacitor 22 and an inductor 21; the inductor 21 is connected in series between the output port and the stepper motor 8; one end of the first capacitor 22 is connected between the output port and the stepper motor 8, and the other end is grounded. The ungrounded end of the first capacitor 22 is located on the side of the inductor 21 close to the H-bridge motor driver chip 1 or on the side of the inductor 21 close to the stepper motor 8. In this embodiment, the ungrounded end of the first capacitor 22 is located on the side of the inductor 21 close to the stepper motor 8. In this embodiment, the first capacitor 22 is 1000pF; the impedance of the inductor 21 in this embodiment is 330ohm, and the maximum DC current of the inductor 21 is 1.2A.
