Obviously, the drawings described in the following only some embodiments of the present application, and for those skilled in the art, other drawings can also be obtained from these drawings without creative labor.

Therefore, the features limited by "first", "second" can be explicitly or implicitly included one or more features. In the description of the present application, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more.

[0016] The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0017] AsFigure 1 As shown, the PWM speed regulation circuit includes a driving transformer T1, a signal input end PWM, and a signal output end SR. In the figure: the signal input end PWM is connected to the primary same-named end of the driving transformer T1 through a third capacitor C3, the primary different-named end of the driving transformer T1 is connected to a digital ground DGND through an eighth resistor R8, a first clamping diode D1 is connected between the signal input end PWM and the digital ground DGND, and a primary load resistor R6 is connected to the two ends of the primary of the driving transformer T1; the secondary same-named end of the driving transformer T1 is divided into three paths, in which: the first path of the secondary same-named end is connected to the anode of a voltage stabilizing diode VD1 through a second current-limiting resistor R2 and a third current-limiting resistor R3, the second path of the secondary same-named end is connected to the secondary different-named end through a secondary load R7, and the third path of the secondary same-named end is connected to the secondary different-named end through a parallel circuit composed of a second capacitor C2, a second clamping diode D2, and a fourth capacitor C4 in sequence; the cathode of the voltage stabilizing diode VD1 is connected to a reference ground GND, and the signal output end SR is connected to the anode of the voltage stabilizing diode VD1. Specifically, the anode of the second clamping diode D2 is connected to the second current-limiting resistor R2 and the third current-limiting resistor R3 through a lead, and the cathode of the second clamping diode D2 is connected to the reference ground GND.

[0018] In actual application, when the brushless DC motor driver is powered on, the PWM chopping signal passes through the driving transformer, and a square wave signal is generated at the signal output end SR. After being reversed by the gate drive circuit or the inverter, the logic circuit in the rear stage is input, so that the motor operates normally. When the PWM duty cycle is 100%, the SR is always low due to the AC-DC isolation characteristic of the driving transformer, and the motor stops operating.

[0019] It should be noted that the input end of the gate drive circuit is connected to the signal output end SR, and the output end of the gate drive circuit inputs the square wave signal of the signal output end SR after being reversed to the logic circuit in the rear stage. The input end of the inverter is connected to the signal output end SR, and the output end of the inverter inputs the square wave signal of the signal output end SR after being reversed to the logic circuit in the rear stage.

[0020] The specific working principle is as follows:

[0021] The primary and secondary turns ratio of the drive transformer can be set as n according to actual conditions, the PWM signal is a high-frequency chopping signal, the secondary of the drive transformer will induce a PWM high-frequency square signal with an amplitude of about n times, and then the signal is stabilized by the stabilizing two-stage tube VD1, the SR signal input into the gate drive circuit or the inverter is a high-frequency square signal with a relatively stable amplitude, and the PWMOUT is a high-frequency square signal with a relatively stable amplitude and opposite to the SR signal. R7 is the load of the secondary of the drive transformer, which can make the voltage waveform of the secondary relatively stable. D2 can make the negative voltage amplitude of the square signal clamped in a certain range. R2 and R3 are the current limiting resistors of the stabilizing tube VD1. The VD1 stabilizing tube can stabilize the SR signal to a certain range. The circuit is suitable for brushless DC motor driver, when the PWM speed regulation duty cycle is 100% constant high level, the driver will not drive the motor to run, and the circuit solves the technical problem of motor misoperation in the initialization process of motor drive control by using a simple drive transformer. Through the use of the circuit, the motor always keeps the state of stopping in the initialization process of the control system, which can prevent the motor from running incorrectly.

[0022] It should be further pointed out that a buffer can be arranged between the signal output end SR and the later-stage logic circuit or they can be directly connected.

[0023] Finally, it should be pointed out that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the utility model, but not to limit them; although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent replacement for some technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the utility model.
