Description: Speed control is achieved through pulse width modulation (PWM) of the gates of two MGP20N45 TMOS devices. Consequently, the motor speed is directly proportional to the pulse width of the incoming digital signal, which can be generated by a microprocessor or digital logic circuit. The incoming signal is fed into comparator U1, and then it is processed by paralleled inverters U2, U3, and U4 that drive the two TMOS devices, which ultimately control the power supplied to the motor armature. A bridge rectifier D1 provides full-wave power, which is filtered by resistor R5 and capacitor C1. Additionally, a free-wheeling diode D3 (MR854) is included to prevent high voltage across Q1 and Q2. A back-to-back zener diode, D2, is utilized to protect against transients and high voltage surges.
The described circuit operates by utilizing pulse width modulation to control the speed of a DC motor. The MGP20N45 TMOS devices serve as high-efficiency switches that modulate the power delivered to the motor based on the PWM signal's duty cycle. The PWM signal is generated by a microprocessor or digital logic circuit, which allows for precise control of the motor speed.
The comparator U1 is essential for comparing the PWM signal with a reference voltage, ensuring accurate timing and switching of the TMOS devices. The output from U1 is then sent to a set of paralleled inverters (U2, U3, and U4), which amplify the signal to ensure that the gates of the TMOS devices receive a sufficient drive voltage. This configuration helps in achieving rapid switching and minimizes power loss during operation.
The bridge rectifier D1 converts the AC input voltage to a DC output, ensuring that the motor receives a consistent power supply. The filtering components, R5 and C1, smooth out the rectified voltage, providing a stable DC supply to the motor and reducing voltage ripple.
The inclusion of the free-wheeling diode D3 is crucial for protecting the TMOS devices from voltage spikes that may occur when the motor is switched off. This diode allows for the safe dissipation of inductive kickback generated by the motor's coils, thereby preventing potential damage to the switching devices.
Furthermore, the back-to-back zener diode D2 serves as a protective measure against transient voltage spikes and high voltage surges that could otherwise exceed the voltage ratings of the components in the circuit. By clamping excessive voltages, D2 ensures the longevity and reliability of the circuit under varying operational conditions.
Overall, this circuit design effectively integrates PWM control, robust voltage regulation, and protective components to achieve efficient motor speed control while safeguarding against potential electrical hazards.Speed control is accomplished by pulse width modulating the gates of two MGP20N45 TMOS devices. Therefore, motor speed is proportional to the pulse width of the incoming digital signal, which can be generated by a microprocessor or digital logic. The incoming signal is applied to comparator Ul, then to paralleled inverters U2, U3, and U4 that drive the two TMOS devices, which, in turn, control power applied to the motor armature.
