The motor drive board 21 is perpendicular to the rotating shaft 4, and the motor drive board 21 is connected within the projection line of the outer circumference of the stator 2.

[0032] In this embodiment, the motor drive board 21 uses system integration design, local chemical etching, secondary high voltage physical insulation and other processes to reduce the surface area of ​​the motor drive board 21 away from the stator 2 to less than or equal to the outer diameter of the stator 2.

[0033] It should be noted that the shape of the motor drive board 21 is not limited and can be circular or square, etc.

[0035] Specifically, the winding pattern on stator 2 is either star-shaped or triangular.

[0036] If the winding on stator 2 is single-phase, then the number of stator phase terminals 5 is two.

[0037] If the windings on stator 2 are three-phase, then the number of stator phase terminals 5 is three.

[0038] The motor drive board 21 includes: an external power supply terminal 212, an external control terminal 213, an MCU 214, a half-bridge inverter module 211, a phase line interface terminal 20, and a current sampling circuit.

[0039] External power supply terminal 212 is connected to MCU 214 and motor drive circuit 211. External control terminal 213 is connected to MCU 214 and motor drive circuit 211.

[0053] The current sampling circuit is responsible for monitoring the current information of the motor in real time. Resistor RS3 is connected in series in the main circuit. When current passes through it, a voltage drop will be generated. This voltage signal is divided by resistors R37 and R35 and filtered by capacitor C35. It is then input to the OPA1_IN+ and OPA1_IN- pins of the control chip U5, respectively. The control chip calculates the actual current value based on these signals, which serves as the basis for adjusting the control strategy, realizing closed-loop control of the motor current and ensuring the safe and stable operation of the motor.

[0056] External control terminal 213 serves as the interface for system interaction with external systems. Interface J3 connects to the three-phase windings of the motor to transmit drive signals. The serial communication circuit connects to external devices via interface J2. Resistors R17 and R18 limit and protect the signal transmission, enabling control chip U5 to receive external control commands and exchange debugging information.

The second end of capacitor C3 is connected to the second end of resistor R6 and the VDC pin of control chip U5.

[0061] The half-bridge inverter modules U1, U2, and U3 are all TSM450F, and their circuit connections are symmetrical. They receive control signals from chip U5 and work together to drive the U, V, and W phases of the motor.

[0062] External control terminal 213 serves as the interface for system interaction with external systems. Interface J3 connects to the three-phase windings of the motor to transmit drive signals. The serial communication circuit connects to external devices via interface J2. Resistors R17 and R18 limit and protect the signal transmission, enabling control chip U5 to receive external control commands and exchange debugging information. The filtering circuit divides and filters the +310V power supply voltage, transmitting the processed signal to control chip U5 for power supply voltage monitoring and protection.

[0063] After the system is powered on, the external power supply terminals provide a stable operating voltage to each module. The external control terminals receive external control commands and transmit them to the MCU214. The MCU214 generates corresponding control signals based on the commands and the current information fed back by the current sampling circuit, and sends them to the motor drive circuit 211. The motor drive circuit 211 inverts the DC power into three-phase AC power, which drives the brushless motor to run through the phase line interface terminals. At the same time, the current sampling circuit continuously monitors the current and feeds it back to the MCU214. The MCU214 adjusts the control signals in real time based on the feedback to ensure that the motor runs stably according to the set state. All modules work together to form a complete closed-loop control system.

[0064] The half-bridge inverter module 2111 is packaged in either PQFN (Power Quad Flat No-lead) or QFN (Quad Flat No-lead) form, which has the advantages of small size and good heat dissipation.

[0065] Furthermore, the underlying circuit layout also includes a phase line output terminal 20 connected to the motor drive circuit 211. The phase line output terminal 20 is located in the center of the underlying circuit layout. This arrangement makes the phase line connection of the high-speed motor simpler, reduces the parasitic inductance of the phase line, and reduces the influence of conducted radiation.

[0066] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the underlying circuit layout includes three phase line output terminals 20, namely U, V and W in the figure, which are connected one-to-one with the half-bridge inverter modules U1, U2 and U3 in the motor drive circuit 211.

[0067] In this embodiment, the motor drive circuit 211 is located on the airflow channel of the air outlet, which can make full use of the airflow of the high-speed motor air outlet for heat dissipation. The airflow is used to quickly remove the heat generated by the motor drive circuit 211, thereby ensuring that the motor drive circuit 211 operates within a safe temperature range and improving its working stability and reliability.

[0068] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the MCU214 integrates operational amplifiers and comparators internally. The MCU214 samples the current signal using either a single or dual resistor to achieve sensorless FOC (Field Oriented Control) sinusoidal drive of the high-speed motor. By integrating operational amplifiers and comparators within the MCU214, the overall circuit structure of the high-speed motor becomes more compact, facilitating miniaturization. It is understood that in practical applications, a configurable current sampling module can be set in the MCU214, allowing selection of single or dual resistor sampling methods based on different application requirements. Moreover, by configuring the MCU214 with software and setting different parameters and modes, control of three-phase or single-phase motors can be achieved.

[0069] Furthermore, the motor drive board 21 is fixed to the motor outlet by welding or terminal self-locking fastening, so that the motor drive board 21 and the motor outlet form a firm connection, which can ensure the connection stability of the motor drive board 21 even when subjected to vibration and impact.

[0070] Furthermore, the diameter of the motor drive board 21 is smaller than the diameter of the motor body, which allows the motor drive board 21 to better fit the motor body, achieving an integrated design of the high-speed motor without increasing the overall volume, making the structure of the entire high-speed motor more compact.

[0071] This motor utilizes precise modular connections and coordination. External power terminals provide stable power to the half-bridge inverter module and MCU, ensuring energy supply to each module. The half-bridge inverter module receives control signals and precisely drives the three phases of the motor, achieving stable inverter control of the high-speed motor. The current sampling circuit collects the bus current in real time, providing feedback to the control algorithm and ensuring motor control accuracy. External control terminals enable independent transmission of power, control signals, and motor outputs. The filtering circuit suppresses interference and ensures circuit stability through voltage sampling and signal filtering. All modules work together to build an efficient and reliable high-speed motor drive system, meeting the requirements for precise motor control and stable operation.
