7.3.9.1 Color Wheel Motor Driver Power Dissipation
The maximum allowable power dissipation on motor driver is specified in the color wheel motor driver table. Motor driver power dissipation can be calculated as follows:
Equation 4. Pdm = [VM – (KE × Sm) – Ispd × Rpp] × Ispd
where
- Pdm = Power dissipation of motor driver
- VM = Programmed output voltage of the motor supply
- KE = Motor voltage constant in Volts/(rad/sec)
- Sm = Motor speed in rad/sec
- Ispd = Motor current at Sm speed
- Rpp = Phase-to-phase motor resistance
