DescriptionIn the wake of the news this week of Pope Francis' death, I immediately wondered what we could do here at Better Preach to honor his legacy, teaching and example - particularly around Preaching. For a while I wanted to do a dive into his first major letter to the Church, the Joy of the Gospel, from 2013, and look closely at his lengthy section in that document on homiletics. And thanks to Fr. Craig Vasek, who joined me way back in the beginning on episode 2 of Better Preach, he agreed to join me again at the last minute here to look back at Pope Francis' longest magisterial teaching on Preaching. Father Craig Vasek currently serves as pastor of St. Bernard's Catholic Church in Thief River Falls, Minnesota. Ordained in 2010 as a priest of the Diocese of Crookston, Minnesota, Fr. Vasek is a graduate of the Pontifical North American College in Vatican City, having obtained a Licentiate of Sacred Theology in 2011. Father Vasek has worked extensively with the Missionaries of Charity of Saint Teresa of Calcutta in Europe, Asia, Africa, and North America. He has produced works on the topics of Scripture and the Spiritual Life, and served as Specialist for the National Eucharist Revival with the US Conference of Catholic Bishops.Check out Fr.

This week's EYE ON NPI is spinning up to be a good one, it's the Texas Instruments DRV10974 BLDC Motor Driver (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/texas-instruments/DRV10974PWPR/9091905) a simple and powerful way to add BLDC motor control to any design, with a wide operating range and all-in-one functionality so you only need a few passives to have a full feedback-ready system for fan control. We haven't used a lot of brushless DC motors - we'll call them BLDC motors - very often here at the 'fruit but that doesn't mean they aren't an essential motor you need to know about. They are the fourth of the most common DC motors people use: steppers / linear actuators, brushed DC, and servo are the others. (Technically, servos are a type of brushed or brushless DC but they're so integrated we separate them). Brushed DC motors are great for anything that has to spin fast, and if you need more torque or lower speeds just gear them down. Brushed DC motors can be driven with a low cost H-bridges (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H-bridge) such as the DRV8833 (https://www.digikey.com/short/zj9p84wr). All you need is two PWM signals to set the direction and speed - you can even add an external encoder if you want to have precise speed calculations (https://www.adafruit.com/product/4416) If you have a motor that's spinning continuously, you're better off going with a brushless motor (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brushless_DC_electric_motor): these still spin around fast like a brushed DC but give up the commutation brushes. Instead, we have to toggle one of three windings in clockwise or counter-clockwise direction to move the stator around. This isn't too bad when the motor is already running, just keep toggling them and you can pretty much guarantee the speed because you're inching the stator around. However, it's harder to start the motor because you have to slowly pulse each coil and you don't know whether the fan is keeping up or falling behind. The easiest way to handle this issue is to have hall effect sensors built into or outside the motor which can detect the permanent magnet on the rotor. But this is expensive, and annoying! So instead we can take advantage of 'back EMF', (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-electromotive_force) the effect on each coil from the internal permanent rotor magnet as it goes around. We can use this as a method to determine the actual speed, but the techniques for doing so are way more complex than a DC or stepper motor. Instead of just applying DC voltage, you have to perform multiple steps to begin rotation from a stop: alignment, open loop acceleration, then closed loop speed control. Which is why you want an easy-to-use chip that takes care of this logic for you, like the TI DRV10974 BLDC Motor Driver (https://www.digikey.com/short/j85mb52n)! This chip abstracts away all that complex management, and provides a direction plus speed PWM pin interface so you can use it from any microcontroller. It even has built in FETs for up to 1A continuous current draw. The DRV10974 will convert the direction / PWM pins into 3 clean sinusoids with 180 degree phases for smooth and quiet motion. It can drive delta or wye motors, with 5 to 18VDC peak to peak voltages, and from 1 to 20 ohm impedance per coil. To allow the DRV10974 to drive a wide range of motors, there are three configuration resistors that let you tweak the performance in hardware. The first resistor will set the current limit from 200mA to 1.6A. The second lets you set the lead angle, a compensation for the back EMF readings (https://www.ti.com/video/6257299020001). The third will let you adjust the acceleration profile, basically letting you optimize the startup time from when we have the sensorless open-loop startup to closed-loop running. Once you've picked the motor you want to use with the DRV, follow TI's tuning guide (https://www.ti.com/lit/ug/slou505/slou505.pdf) to select the resistors for the best performance. There's also some lock-detection built in, since not having an external encoder makes it hard to know when the motor is not running anymore. For engineers that need a brushless motor driver chip that's inexpensive, and easy to integrate, the Texas Instruments DRV10974 BLDC Motor Driver (https://www.digikey.com/short/j85mb52n) is an excellent pick with plenty of stock available at DigiKey. There's also a ready-assembled eval board, the TI DRV10974EVM (https://www.digikey.com/short/0w5qpd04) available if you want to quickly test. And of course, you can pick up a BLDC motor from DigiKey as well (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/motors-ac-dc/178) Order today and your electronic items will fly faster than a rotating fan blade, from Thief River Falls to your office or home so you can start developing with the DRV10974 BLDC Motor Driver (https://www.digikey.com/short/j85mb52n) by tomorrow morning.

This week's EYE ON NPI will drive it's way into your heart and into your motorized design BOMs: it's the Texas Instruments DRV8411 Dual H-Bridge Motor Driver (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/t/texas-instruments/drv8411-dual-h-bridge-motor-driver), a nifty multi-purpose dual H-bridge driver for use with either two brushless DC motors or bi-polar stepper motor. This driver features a wide operating voltage, from 11V down to 1.65V, and up to 4A current output so it can be used in just about any motor control design. It's intended as an upgrade replacement to the popular DRV8833 (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/texas-instruments/DRV8833PW/4251165), with pin-compatible options or with reduced BOM options if you're good with a little redesigning. Now you might be thinking: Hey, that DRV8833 (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/texas-instruments/DRV8833PW/4251165) part number sounds so familiar - where have a I seen that before? Well, if you were thinking that you saw our Chip Shortage video clip from about 1 year ago (https://blog.adafruit.com/2022/05/26/chip-shortage-ti-drv8833-motor-driver-chipshortage-adafruit-adafruit-digikey-txinstruments/) we were desperately begging for some DRV8833's in PWP package so that we could get Crickit boards back in stock (https://www.adafruit.com/product/3093). We did get some eventually so that we have both our Crickit and DRV8833 breakout boards (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/adafruit-industries-llc/3297/6419360) back in stock but now we're looking at maybe updating the design with this fancy upgrade. The original DRV8833 is a great chip, and can drive two DC motors or one stepper at 2.7-10.8V and peak current of 2A. To compare, the DRV8411 has a wider range of 1.65-11V which means its better at low voltage motors, say ones running off of 2 alkaline batteries. It's also available in 4A peak output transistor as the DRV8411A (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/texas-instruments/DRV8411ARTER/18111300) - double the current! Note that if you are pushing that much current, at long intervals, through your driver you will have to think about heat-sinking (https://www.digikey.com/en/videos/c/cui/how-to-select-a-heat-sink). There's a section in the datasheet about how to use copper fill as a heat sink: 2 oz copper will do better than 1 oz and you'll want a large square area. Otherwise, you may have to look at adding an external heatsinking or forced cooling with a fan. Or, you may want to avoid getting into such a hot state by adding current limiting. These drivers can use a resistor that is in series with the motor power to limit how much current will sink: once the voltage across the resistor hits 200mV, the feedback system will reduce current draw. Our original breakout used these power/current-sense resistors to limit current to 1.2A by default. One nifty feature we saw in the DRV8411A version (https://www.digikey.com/short/5d917nh7) of this family is they've gotten rid of the 'in path' current sense resistors. While they worked great they needed to be high wattage in order to handle the full current from the motor path. The A changes this to a current mirror (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_mirror) so that low wattage resistors, say 0402 or 0603 size, can be used instead saving a ton of space. You can also connect the monitor pads to your favorite microcontroller ADC to monitor current draw. And, oh yes, the DRV8411 (https://www.digikey.com/short/f8z23pm7) and DRV8411A (https://www.digikey.com/short/5d917nh7) are both in stock right now for instant shipping from Digi-Key! When you order from Digi-Key they will pack and ship your order from Thief River Falls within the day and you will get it as quickly as tomorrow morning so you can get your motors twisting and turning with this fabulous NPI.
