Configuration for FOC
Table 1
shows the mentioned setting of gain jumpers for both FOC configurations.
Six-step (block commutation) current reading configuration
In the case of six-step (also called block commutation) current control, only two of the motor
phases conduct current at the same time. Therefore, it is possible to use only one shunt
resistor placed on the DC link to measure the motor phase current. Furthermore, as the
current is always flowing in the same direction on the shunt resistor, only positive current
must be measured, and in this case the amplifying network needs to be properly designed.
The details of single-shunt current sensing reading configuration are shown in
Figure 12
. In
this configuration, the current sampling is done only when the value on the shunt resistor is
positive. Only the positive value read on the shunt resistor allows the setting of a higher gain
for the op amp than the one set in three-shunt reading mode.
