Documentation vs. Practical Doubts

Open Alvazz opened this issue 3 years ago • 7 comments

Hi, Very nice work, thank you for your hard work. But after I saw this, I got a little confused, it says LM5107, but the actual schematic is 2ED2304S06F, am I mistaken?

Version 7
---------
|--- Add Schottky between phase and gnd at HS pin of LM5107
|--- Add 5R6 in phase line to HS pin of LM5107
|--- Change high side bypass cap to 10u/25V
|--- Add 14V TVS diode parallel to high side bypass cap
|--- Add one 12V TVS diode to 12V near driver
|--- move gate tracks and back from side by side to on top of each other

Oh, dont Update the documentation. Schematic is correct. The ED is a really nice driver

One more new doubt, what is the use of SN74LVC1G66DBVR device in this schematic? Thank you for your guidance! gesc

U9 is a analog switch. the vesc-firmware supports to switch some additional filtering for current measurement and phase voltage measurement. in this picture the additional cap C41 is connected to the filter R33/C47

Thanks! What are the benefits of doing this?

on high motor current there is more ripple on the signals and you can add more filtering. But there are many vesc-versions without this additional filter option. i'm thinking about too remove it too on a next version

Thank you for your guidance, mainly to play a filtering role
