Automotive 3-Phase Drive

Additional Information

The image shows a 3D model of our brushless 3-phase motor drive which has been released for manufacture. First  samples of this design were delivered to us in late May, and we expect to  be able to fulfil customer requests shortly.


The  drive is designed to operate from a very wide input voltage spread for  12V-48V automotive systems, at currents up to 180A per phase. Control of the drive will be via CAN, though we can also offer RS-422 as an alternative. 

Specification Highlights

Wide input voltage range 7-60V

Wide input voltage range 7-60V

Wide input voltage range 7-60V

For automotive and avionics industries, we've designed the hardware to support a wide battery input voltage range.

Control via CAN or RS-422

Wide input voltage range 7-60V

Wide input voltage range 7-60V

The connector has CAN and RS-422 connections to enable you to control the drive from a remote 'master' unit. 

Rugged Componentry

Wide input voltage range 7-60V

Operating temp. -40C to 105C

We've selected proven devices from the world's leading semiconductor vendors for use in our drive.

We've designed the drive to operate at under-bonnet operating  temperatures as long as you have appropriate heatsinking and airflow to  the power drive on the base of the PCB.

Internal Software


The 32-bit microprocessor runs field-orientated  control algorithms to control the power FETs with a sinusiodal drive.  That gives the best possible performance from the motor, whilst  efficiently operating the drive.

External Housing

Operating temp. -40C to 105C

Internal Software

We're using a high performance sealed 14-way AMPSEAL connector from Tyco  electronics for the signal interface. The enclosure is still being  designed, but we aim to achieve IP6K9K

Prototypes

Additional Information

Here's the first board which we're now testing in-house. We have a number of 3-phase machines to test it with and we'll post updates when it is ready to ship to customers.
