Speed Input Mode

MCF8315A provides four options to configure the input speed command.

  • Analog input on SPEED pin by varying amplitude of input signal
  • PWM input on SPEED pin by varying duty cycle of input signal
  • Over I2C by configuring [DIGITAL_SPEED_CTRL]
  • Frequency input on SPEED pin by varying frequency of input signal

Configure the speed input [SPEED_MODE] register to select the desired speed input mode.

If PWM input on SPEED pin is chosen as the speed input, configure [SPEED_RANGE_SEL] to select the PWM frequency range.

If Frequency input on SPEED pin is chosen as the speed input, configure [INPUT_MAXIMUM_FREQ] to select the maximum PWM frequency. For example, if 10 kHz is chosen as maximum PWM frequency, 10 kHz PWM signal on SPEED pin corresponds to 100% speed command.

Note that even when [SPEED_MODE] is configured as Analog input, PWM input, or Frequency input, the [OVERRIDE] toggle can still be used to override the speed input using the in the I2C Control Section in GUI.
