3 Description

The MCF8316D-Q1 provides a single-chip, codefree

sensorless FOC device for driving 12 to 24V

brushless-DC motors (BLDC) or Permanent Magnet

Synchronous motor (PMSM) up to 8A peak current.

The MCF8316D-Q1 integrates three ½-bridges with

40V absolute maximum capability and a very low

RDS(ON) of 95mΩ (HS+LS FETs). MCF8316D-Q1

integrates a buck regulator (3.3V/5V, 170mA) and

LDO (3.3V, 20mA) that can be used to power external

circuits.

The FOC algorithm configuration can be stored

in non-volatile EEPROM, which allows the device

to operate stand-alone once the device has been

configured. The device receives a speed command

through a PWM input, analog voltage, variable

frequency square wave or I2C command. There are a

large number of protection features integrated into the

MCF8316D-Q1, intended to protect the device, motor,

and system against fault events.
