Hello,

I try to use BEMF in my Project to check if and how the Motor is running.

For this I configure the BEMF to call my Interrupt Service Routine.
For testing, I enable all Interrupts with the same Routine.



My Problem is now, that this Routine is never called!!

All Register seems to be correct initialized, but the bits PHx_ZC_STS never changes!



The Interrupts are enabled, too.



What did I wrong!?

Thank you for your help!

Best regards

Hi Eto,

our device is using a two stage interrupt handling.
To enable a specific interrupt you also need to enable the specific interrupt node.
Chapter 12 of the TLE987x UM shows which interrupt is linked to witch node.

Did you enable interrupts for node 2?

Hi Fiz,

thank you for your answer.

Yes, I have also enabled the Node 2 Interrupt.

Configuration:

Debugger:


The bits PHx_ZC_STS never changes during the Motor runs!

Maybe I have to set another bit I dont't know!?


Best regards

Hi ETO,

is your motor running in open or in closed loop?
Did you try to follow your interrupt routine and check if it is internally routed correctly?
You also need to activate the demagnetisation filter if you want to phase in for the closed loop.

Hi Fiz,

sorry for my late answer, but I was on a Business trip.

It runs in both loops, first open than closed.
Yes, I checked it a lot of times, but nothing happends!
For testing this, I use the Infinen example BLDC_SENSORLESS_FOC_EXAMPLE_TLE987X.

Thank you for your help.

Best regards

Hi ETO,

could you sent me your Software in a privat message so I could take a look at it?

Hi Eto,

the BEMF comparators were not enabled in your example.
Can you try the example I have attached to see if this works for you?

Hi Fiz,

thank you very much for your efforts and sorry for my late answer!
I have no time to try youre example, but above I show my settings and so I don't understand the answer!

Hey Fiz,

Is there a BEMF example code using FOC? The attached file is for block.

Best regards,

I was also facing the same issue that the motor was not running in BEMF mode. However, I tried the example code you gave, but in this case, the motor starts on pressing the MON button but stops as soon as it reaches the given reference speed.
Would you please provide a code that makes the motor run continuously at desired speed?
