Multifunctional microcontrollers with enhanced functionality suitable for sensorless BLDC motor control
RL78/G1F microcontrollers are functionally upward-compatible with the RL78/G14 microcontrollers and have enhanced analog functionality. They are equipped with a built-in high slew rate PGA (3.0 V/μs or higher*), high-speed (0.07 μs (typ.) reaction time) multifunction comparator, and A/D and D/A converters. When RL78/G1F microcontrollers control sensorless BLDC motors, by using these analog functions and two timers capable of operating at 64 MHz, efficient initial rotor position detection and high-speed rotation using 120-degree conducting control can be achieved. They can also perform high-speed overcurrent detection and output cutoff without CPU intervention, so highly flexible motor control can be realized with a small number of parts. Other available features include IrDA communication functions and 4 mm2 36-pin LGA packages that can support low-voltage interfaces, so RL78/G1F microcontrollers can be used not only for motor control but for a variety of applications.
