PWM MANAGEMENT FOR 3-PHASE BLDC MOTOR DRIVES USING THE ST7MC

3.2 ST METHOD

With the ST Method, by using the free-wheeling diodes during the OFF time of the PWM

signal, the M potential is put to ground and the ST7MC microcontroller samples the BEMF

signal voltage during the OFF time of the PWM signal. This involves the fact that the PWM has

to be applied on the high side and that an OFF time is needed as explained in the next section

of this application note. However, fewer external components are required as it is no longer

necessary to divide and filter the signal coming from the non-powered winding. As shown in

Figure 6, only 3 external resistors are needed to limit the current input in the microcontroller

pins.
