  • Patent number: 11664655
    Abstract: A current limit protecting system and method of a motor pre-driver are provided. A current limiting circuit detects a current of a resistor that is connected to a motor, and then compares the current of the resistor with a current threshold to output a current comparing signal. When a controller circuit determines that the current of the resistor is larger than the current threshold according to the current comparing signal, and a working period of a first signal of a first node or a working period of a second signal of a second node of the motor reaches a preset value, a first high-side switch and a second high-side switch are turned off, and a first low-side switch and a second low-side switch are alternately turned on. As a result, a temperature of the motor generally reduces.

  • Publication number: 20220255311
    Abstract: An overvoltage protecting system and method of a motor pre-driver are provided. An overvoltage protecting circuit compares a first reference voltage with a common voltage inputted to a single phase motor to output a first comparison signal. When a controller circuit determines that the common voltage is higher than the first reference voltage according to the first comparison signal, the controller circuit turns off a first high-side switch and a second high-side switch, and turns on the first low-side switch and the second low-side switch, during a phase time of a phase transition signal of the single phase motor. After the phase time ends, the controller circuit alternately turns on the first low-side switch and the second low-side switch according to a level of the phase transition signal.
