PRODUCTION DATA.
When the motor shaft of BLDC or PMSM motor is turned by an external force, the motor windings will generate a voltage on the motor inputs. This condition is known as generator mode or motor back-drive. In the generator mode, a positive voltage can be observed on SHx pins of the device. If there is a switch between VDRAIN and VM (SWVDRAIN in Figure 56 ) and the following conditions exist in the system, the absolute max voltage of VCP with respect to VM needs to be reviewed;
