Product details
Overview
UC2625DWG4 from Texas Instruments is a brushless DC motor controller IC designed for closed-loop voltage- or current-mode PWM motor control in industrial and embedded motion systems. It integrates high-side (50-V open-collector) and low-side (push-pull) gate drivers, a high-speed current-sense amplifier with ideal diode, latched soft-start, tachometer output, and programmable cross-conduction protection. It operates across –40°C to +105°C and supports two- or four-quadrant operation for bidirectional control and braking.
For engineers reviewing the UC2625DWG4 datasheet, UC2625DWG4 pinout, UC2625DWG4 application, or UC2625DWG4 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context on Hall-sensor-based commutation, pulse-by-pulse/average current sensing, RC-oscillator frequency programming, direction latch safety logic, and high-voltage driver interface design - all critical for BLDC motor drive validation and layout.
Technical Context
The UC2625DWG4 implements sensor-based commutation using three Hall-effect inputs (H1–H3) with TTL-compatible thresholds and internal noise-blanking latches synchronized to the PWM oscillator. Its position decoder drives six independent outputs (PUA/PUB/PUC and PDA/PDB/PDC) with programmable cross-conduction prevention via dual-cycle flip-flop inhibition logic.
It features dual current sensing: ISENSE1/ISENSE2 feed a fixed-gain (1.95 V/V typ), level-shifted (2.5 V) absolute-value amplifier enabling both peak-current limiting (0.20 V threshold) and overcurrent shutdown (0.30 V threshold); SSTART provides soft-start clamping of E/A OUT, while RC-OSC sets oscillator frequency (40–60 kHz typ) via ROSC and COSC.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Oscillator Frequency | 40–60 kHz typical; set by ROSC (20 kΩ) and COSC (2 nF); enables stable PWM timing for motor phase chopping. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +105°C; qualified for industrial-grade embedded motor control without derating. |
| High-Side Driver Voltage | 50 V max open-collector output; supports direct drive of P-channel MOSFETs or level-shifted N-channel topologies. |
| Current Sense Gain | 1.95 V/V typical with 2.5 V level shift; converts differential ISENSE1–ISENSE2 into single-ended ISENSE for accurate winding current monitoring. |
| Reference Voltage | 5.0 V ±0.1 V; supplies regulated bias for Hall sensors and external circuitry; load-regulated to ±40 mV (0–20 mA). |
| Soft-Start Discharge Current | 0.1–3.0 mA; actively discharges external capacitor on SSTART to enforce controlled ramp-up after fault or power-on. |
| Tachometer Output | Pulsed 5 V CMOS signal on TACH-OUT; pulse width ~220 μs; average voltage proportional to motor speed for analog feedback. |
Pinout & Package
UC2625DWG4 is housed in a 28-pin SOIC (DW) package with 1.27 mm pitch and standard JEDEC MS-013AC footprint. Pin functions are identical across SOIC (DW), PLCC (Q), and LCC (L) packages per TI SLUS353C.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (15) | Ground reference | Common return for all analog and digital circuitry; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling. |
| VCC (19) | Supply input | 10–18 V main supply; under-voltage lockout disables outputs below 7.75 V; bypass with 0.1 μF ceramic + optional 10 μF electrolytic. |
| VREF (2) | Regulated reference | 5.0 V output for Hall sensors and external circuits; requires ≥0.1 μF bypass to ground; limited to 30 mA max. |
| H1/H2/H3 (8/9/10) | Hall sensor inputs | TTL-compatible comparators with internal pull-ups; accept 120°-spaced Hall signals; require RC filtering (1 kΩ + 2 nF) for noise immunity. |
| PUA/PUB/PUC (16/17/18) | High-side drivers | 50 V open-collector, active-low outputs; drive P-MOSFET gates or Darlingtons; leakage ≤25 μA at 50 V. |
| PDA/PDB/PDC (12/13/14) | Low-side drivers | Push-pull outputs capable of 50 mA continuous; active-high; rise/fall time ≤50 ns into 1 nF load. |
| ISENSE1/ISENSE2 (3/4) | Differential current sense | Inputs to absolute-value amplifier; support ±0.5 V differential range; enable pulse-by-pulse or average current sensing. |
| RC-OSC (25) | Oscillator timing | Connect ROSC to VREF and COSC to GND; sets PWM frequency per F ≈ 2/(ROSC × COSC); internal ramp centered at 1.6 V. |
| DIR (6) | Direction command | Latched input with 0.6 V hysteresis; changes only when SPEED-IN < 250 mV; prevents unsafe reversal during high-speed rotation. |
| OV-COAST (23) | Overvoltage/coast control | Active-high TTL/CMOS input; triggers coast mode at 1.75 V threshold; provides 0.1 V hysteresis for noise rejection. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Latched direction reversal | DIR input passes through transparent latch only when SPEED-IN < 250 mV; enforces safe reversal by requiring motor deceleration first. |
| Programmable cross-conduction protection | Six output flip-flops inhibit opposing PU/PD pairs for ≥2 PWM cycles (25–50 μs at 40 kHz); eliminates shoot-through risk in H-bridge stages. |
| Two- and four-quadrant operation | QUAD SEL (22) selects mode: two-quadrant (PUs always on, PDs chopped) for efficiency; four-quadrant (all drivers chopped) for precise servo current control. |
| High-speed current-sense amplifier | Fixed 1.95 V/V gain with 2.5 V level shift; supports both peak-limiting (0.20 V threshold) and fail-safe shutdown (0.30 V threshold) without external components. |
| Integrated tachometer generator | TACH-OUT (20) pulses on each Hall transition; average voltage linearly tracks motor RPM; enables analog speed feedback with simple RC filter. |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating voltage for UC2625DWG4 high-side drivers?
The UC2625DWG4 high-side drivers (PUA, PUB, PUC) are rated for 50 V maximum output voltage in open-collector configuration. This allows direct interface with P-channel MOSFETs or level-shifted N-channel topologies in motor phases up to 48 V DC bus. Exceeding 50 V risks permanent damage to the output transistors. The absolute maximum VCC rating remains 20 V, and all logic inputs must stay within their specified voltage ranges relative to GND.
How does UC2625DWG4 implement safe direction reversal?
The UC2625DWG4 implements safe direction reversal using a direction latch that only accepts new DIR commands when SPEED-IN voltage falls below 250 mV - indicating low motor speed. Once latched, direction changes are delayed by one to two PWM oscillator periods (25–50 μs at 40 kHz) via a shift register. This ensures mechanical energy dissipates before commutation reverses, preventing torque shock or power device failure. The latch remains inhibited during high-speed rotation.
Can UC2625DWG4 perform both peak and average current sensing?
Yes, UC2625DWG4 supports both modes. Pulse-by-pulse sensing uses ISENSE1 and ISENSE2 directly for instantaneous winding current limiting (0.20 V threshold). Average current sensing requires adding RD in the low-side circulating path (Figure D in SLUS353C) and operating in four-quadrant mode (QUAD SEL = high); the absolute-value amplifier corrects RD's negative voltage, enabling true average current regulation for smooth low-speed torque control.
What oscillator components are recommended for UC2625DWG4 at 50 kHz?
For 50 kHz nominal oscillator frequency, TI recommends ROSC = 20 kΩ connected from RC-OSC (pin 25) to VREF (pin 2), and COSC = 2 nF from RC-OSC to GND. This matches the typical value in the Electrical Characteristics table and yields stable operation with minimal jitter. Resistors between 10 kΩ and 100 kΩ and capacitors from 1 nF to 100 nF are supported, but values near the center of those ranges optimize accuracy and temperature stability.
Does UC2625DWG4 include built-in protection against cross-conduction?
Yes, UC2625DWG4 includes hardware-level cross-conduction protection. Six dedicated flip-flops track each PU/PD output state and inhibit opposing drivers for at least two PWM oscillator cycles (e.g., 25–50 μs at 40 kHz). This ensures mandatory deadtime between high-side and low-side activation in each phase leg, preventing shoot-through even during fast direction or PWM transitions - no external timing components required.
