4.7 Servo Control
C141-E224 4-19
4.7.5 Spindle motor control
Hall-less three-phase twelve-pole motor is used for the spindle motor, and the
PWM type current control circuit is used as the spindle motor driver (called SVC
hereafter). The firmware operates on the MPU manufactured by Fujitsu. The
spindle motor is controlled by sending several signals including the serial data
from the MPU to the SVC. There are three modes for the spindle control; start
mode, acceleration mode, and stable rotation mode.
(1) Start mode
When power is supplied, the spindle motor is started in the following sequence:
a) After the power is turned on, the MPU sends the serial data to the SVC to
charge the charge pump capacitor of the SVC.
b) When the charge pump capacitor is charged enough, the MPU sets the SVC
to the motor start mode.
c) A phase switching signal is generated and the phase of the current flowed in
the motor is changed in the order of (V-phase to U-phase), (W-phase to U-
phase), (W-phase to V-phase), (U-phase to V-phase), (U-phase to W-phase),
and (V-phase to W-phase) (after that, repeating this order).
d) During phase switching, the spindle motor starts rotating in low speed, and
generates a counter electromotive force. The SVC detects this counter
electromotive force and reports to the MPU using a PHASE signal for speed
detection.
e) The MPU is waiting for a PHASE signal. When no phase signal is sent for a
specific period, the MPU resets the SVC and starts from the beginning.
When a PHASE signal is sent, the SVC enters the acceleration mode.
(2) Acceleration mode
In this mode, the MPU stops to send the serial data for the phase switching to the
SVC. The SVC starts a phase switching by itself based on the counter
electromotive force. Then, rotation of the spindle motor accelerates. The MPU
calculates a rotational speed of the spindle motor based on the PHASE signal
from the SVC, and waits till the rotational speed reaches 5,400 rpm. When the
rotational speed reaches 5,400 rpm, the SVC enters the stable rotation mode.
(3) Stable rotation mode
The SVC builds the FLL/PLL circuit into, and to become the rotational speed of
the target, controls a stable rotation with hardware.
The firmware calculates time of one rotation from PHASE signal. PHASE signal
is outputted from the SVC. And the firmware observes an abnormal rotation.
