2017.09.19 - measuring motor current

The next tests were done with firmware running the very low resolution FOC and the motors were running with the best efficiency possible up to date.

Schematic of the part to measure motor current:
images/85-1.png

Over current (OC)
LM358D U2A seems to be configured as a comparator, comparing the voltage on the shunt.

On pin 3, the voltage is defined by the voltage divider R9 and R7:
R7/(R7+R9) * Vin = Vout; 2.2 / (2.2 + 20) * 5V = 0.099 * 5V = 0.5v
If R6 = 0.001R; OC signal will be active low when current I = U / R; I = 0.5 / 0.001 = 500 amps (??)

Opamp as diferential amplifier (motor current)

LM358D U2B seems to be configured as a differential comparator and the output is the amplified signal of motor current (ISHUNT). This signal is after sent through the low pass filter formed by the R21 and C6, resulting in the signal AN8.

Diferential amplifer gain:
Gain = (R3/R1) * (V2-V1) = 10/1.8 * (V R6 - 0) --> gain = 5.56

Vout = 1.59V, measured with motor stopped. For each 1A, Vout will increase:
V R6 = 0.001 * 1 = 0.001V; 0.001 * 5.56 (gain) = 5.6mV (??)

Oscillocope screenshot showing with yellow the ISHUNT signal and blue the AN8 signal. Note that both signal values with the motor stopped were 1.59V.

Now with the motor running and the lab power supply were showing a current value of 1.1A.
images/85-3.png

As we can see, for a current of 1.1A, the AN8 signal is about 48mV higher (lab power supply measures 0.2A with motor stopped). Each 1A should increase the signal about 53mV.

EUC2 motor (direct drive motor)
Motor running slow and without load. Yellow is the ISHUNT signal, blue is hall sensor signal. Power supply current measuring 0.2A:

Motor running slow and now with a load. Power supply current measuring 1A. 80mV peak current:

Q85 motor (geared motor)
Motor running slow and without load. Power supply current measuring 0.5A. 80mV peak current:
images/85-6.png

Motor running at medium/high speed and without load. 320mV peak current:
images/85-7.png

Motor running at high speed and without load but here the motor makes a lot of noise and vibration. The lab power supply were indicating “short-circuit” protection so motor should not run like this.
500mV at least peak current including negative peak currents:
