7.3.6.2.4 Motor Resistance Inverse Scale

Denoted by INV_R_SCALE, this is the scaling factor for the inverse of motor resistance (INV_R). Since the inverse of a motor resistance is generally not an integer, the value must be rounded off to the nearest integer. Settings are described in Table 7-17.

Table 7-17 Settings for INV_R_SCALE
BitValue of INV_R_SCALE
00b2
01b64
10b1024
11b8192

INV_R is represented by the equation:

Equation 7. INV_R =1Motor Resistance×INV_R_SCALE

Please note that the maximum value of INV_R is 255. Please refer to Section 9.2.3.1.1 for an example on how to select the appropriate INV_R_SCALE for a given value of motor resistance.
