8.2.2.2 Calculate Current Regulation

In a stepper motor, the set full-scale current (IFS) is the maximum current driven through either winding. For the DRV8711, this quantity will depend on the analog voltage, the programmed torque and gain values, and the sense resistor value (RSENSE). During stepping, IFS defines the current chopping threshold (ITRIP) for the maximum current step. The gain of DRV8711 is set for 5 V/V.

Equation 7. DRV8711 equation_03_slvsc40.gif

To achieve IFS = 1.25 A with RSENSE of 0.2 Ω with a gain of 5, TORQUE should be set to 116(dec).

IFS is set by a comparator which compares the voltage across RSENSE to a reference voltage. There is a current sense amplifier built in with programmable gain through ISGAIN. Note that IFS must also follow Equation 8 in order to avoid saturating the motor. VM is the motor supply voltage, and RL is the motor winding resistance.

Equation 8. DRV8711 EQ5_IFSa_slva632.gif

TORQUE is a register used to scale the output. If TORQUE = 0xFF, then the SIN DAC is scaled by 1. As TORQUE is decreased, the reference is decreased as well.

As an example, the torque register can be reduced when the motor has been stopped. Reducing torque at this point could reduce the current required to hold the motor.

TORQUE Register Address = 0x01h
Bit Name Size R/W Default Description
7-0 TORQUE 8 R/W 0xFFh Sets full-scale output current for both H-bridges

ISGAIN controls the gain of the current sense amplifier. Note that from Equation 7, increasing this gain will decrease IFS since it is used in the feedback path.
