Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of drive circuits, in particular to a drive circuit for a DC stepping motor. Background Art
[0002] At present, two-phase four-wire stepper motors are widely used in electric components of new energy vehicles. Due to their own mechanical structure and working principle, stepper motors have strong operating vibration and noise when working normally, which makes the customer experience of new energy vehicles poor. In order to ensure customer experience, high-cost brushless motors are needed to solve this problem. This cost puts a great pressure on customers.
[0003] In addition, most of the stepper motor drivers on the market are integrated driver chips. Integrated driver chips are highly integrated and highly standardized. Although they improve the reliability of the drive system, they also solidify some electrical parameters. Most automotive products are customized products and non-standard parts, which leads to the inability of integrated driver chips to meet customers' special application requirements. In addition, traditional driver chips are often less efficient at high-frequency switching, resulting in greater energy loss, which affects the performance of the motor and the reliability of the system. Secondly, traditional circuits may not be able to provide sufficient current and voltage control accuracy, thus affecting the positioning accuracy and stability of the stepper motor.
[0004] Due to the lack of flexible control strategies, traditional drive circuits are difficult to adapt to different working conditions and requirements, limiting the application range of stepper motors. It can be seen that the existing technology still needs to be improved and enhanced. Utility Model Content
