MCT8316Z: Motor lock detection functionality

Part Number: MCT8316Z
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV8307, DRV10987

Hi,

I am trying to find an alternative to the MCT8316Z .

The motor lock detection and the adjustment of the parameters like 'motor lock detection time' with SPI of the MCT8316Z  is the most important feature for our client and I wanted to ask if there is any other device which has the same motor lock detection feature also with adjustable parameters?

Kind Regards

Alex

  • Hi Alex,

    DRV8307 is a sensored trapezoidal gate driver with lock detection, however it does not have any configurability.

    DRV10987 is a sensorless sine integrated MOSFET driver and has lock detection configured through I2C.

    Can you provide more inputs on the customer requirements? Supply voltage, motor current, lock detection parameters, etc?

    Thanks,

    Matt

  • Hi Matt 

    Unfortunately I do not have more inputs on the requirements.

    But I think for now its enough to know that we have the DRV10987 as an alternative which I will suggest to the customer and then hopefully get more details on the requirements.

    Thank you very much for your help.

    Kind Regards

    Alex
