7.3.6.2.2 Speed Scaling Factor

Denoted by W_SCALE, this is a scaling factor which helps in setting the target ripple speed when speed regulation mode is enabled. Settings for W_SCALE are shown below. This register also sets the maximum value of ripple speed under each setting of W_SCALE.

Table 7-13 Settings for W_SCALE
BitW_SCALEMaximum Ripple Speed
00b164080 rad/s
01b328160 rad/s
10b6416320 rad/s
11b12832640 rad/s

Example setting for W_SCALE: If SPEED register = 15, W_SCALE = 01b, then the actual ripple speed = 15*32=480 rad/s.

Note:

Explanation for Maximum Ripple Speed: W_SCALE inadvertently sets the upper limit for the target ripple speed under that setting of W_SCALE. For example, if W_SCALE = 00b, then the maximum ripple speed under this setting = 255*16 rad/s = 4080 rad/s. Hence, the maximum target speed achievable under this setting is 4080 rad/s. Furthermore, under this setting of W_SCALE, FFh corresponds to 4080 rad/s for WSET_VSET when speed regulation mode is activated (REG_CTRL=10b).
