• Description: LM621 Brushless Motor Commutator
• Manufacturer: NSC [National Semiconductor]

Three-Phase Motor Commutation
Note 1 The above outputs are generated when the Direction input pin 2 is logic high For reverse rotation (pin 2 logic low) the above sink and source output
states become exchanged
Note 2 For four-phase motors sink and source outputs number two (pins 15 and 12) are not used hense the ‘‘na’’ (not applicable) in the appropriate columns
above Figure 6 shows how the required sink and source outputs for four-phase motors are derived
Four-Phase Motor Commutation
Four-phase motors use a 90-degree (quadrature) rotor-posi-
tion sensor phasing This phasing scheme is also shown in
Table I LM621 Commutation Decoder Truth Table As
shown in Table I the 90-degree phasing has only two rotor-

Sink Outputs
Same as 30-degree phasing but in reverse
order i e only change is relative direction
Same as 60-degree phasing but with shifted
order of position ranges i e only change is
relative phasing of sensor signals
