ABSTRACT:
A controller for a batter-drive DC motor controls the average motor current by switching a series-connected FET on and off with a pulse-width-modulated gate signal. Motor speed is changed by chaning the duty cycle of the signl, which is generated by an oscillator. An undervoltage protection circuit senses the battery voltage and compares it with a reference system that has hysteresis. An overload protection circuit senses the motor current, integrates the sensed signal, and comprares the result with a Zener reference diode that is connected in an amplifier circuit for positive feedback. The oscillators's pulse-width-modulated output, the undervoltage protection circuits's output, and the overload protection circuit's output are input to a "NOR" Logic gate, whose output drives the gate of the FET.
