ABSTRACT:
A stator coil driver circuit for a brushless DC motor, which minimizes torque ripple by keeping the current in the commutating phases constant, is disclosed. The circuit includes a slew rate control circuit for ramping up the current or ramping down the current during commutation. The slew rate control circuit consists of a capacitor, a first current source for charging the capacitor, and a second current source for discharging the capacitor. The circuit also includes a sense resistor or a sensefet and an operational transconductance amplifier for providing feedback control.
