MC73110 Motor Control IC
The MC73110 Motor Control IC is a compact, high-performance solution for brushless DC motor control. It integrates a digital current loop, velocity loop, and commutation logic to deliver precise, efficient motion control in demanding applications.
Flexible Operating Modes
This intelligent single-axis drive controller supports multiple modes:
- Internal velocity profile mode
- Velocity mode with external command signal
- Torque mode with external torque signal
The MC73110 can operate standalone using flash-stored parameters, or via serial port commands for dynamic control.
System Integration
To build a complete motion control system, the MC73110 connects to a MOSFET or IGBT-based power stage. It comes in a compact 64-pin TQFP package and operates at 3.3 V, making it ideal for embedded designs.
