Re: LV8729V with STM32

The problem are the reverse polarity spikes... I deal with that more than a decade ago when I start with the electronics of the telescope... a single 12v impulse going to a low impedance coil can produce a 700v+ back spike!... It is literally Tesla stuff!!! I remember the "Electric sparks"...

Re: LV8729V with STM32

well all was good in theory BUT surprise! both grounds on the LV8729V modules are already shorted!!! so no matter if I separate them the problem will persist... A similar driver the DRV8825 has the same "mistake" the 2 grounds are shorted... At least I was lucky to test them before burning...

Re: LV8729V with STM32

but the voltage Im talking about is exactly the motor supply... so as u pointed it is important that the DC-DC converter must be near to the motor capacitor

Re: LV8729V with STM32

the unit I have maybe works... it is a 12v to 12v non regulated converter of very low power rate (B1212S-1W) I test it with 3.8V in and it gives 3.82v out (so not exactly 1:1) of course I need a 3:1 voltage divider in the input to not burn it with 28v... MAYBE it works. the only doubt I have about i...

Re: LV8729V with STM32

thanks... so as long as I do not connect motor ground with logic ground maybe it will be ok? On a second review of the first pdf that I refer to it is CLEAR that logic and motor power supply can NOT be the same (line & ground). :oops: I will re read the datasheet to see if there is any mention a...

Re: LV8729V with STM32

so the ground is what kills the MCU? It is relatively simple to isolate the Motor ground but if I dont share the logic ground with the MCU the signal do not work. In the other hand if I isolate the MCU with optos the ground of the motor can not be shared with the optos secondary part? For example th...

Re: LV8729V with STM32

well I start using the info on this page: https://wiki.fysetc.com/LV8729_V1.0/ here is the complete drawing... https://mega.nz/file/VPACmDYR#XC4JSNDjM9XqCuoVlO1-tUCSWLTeYo_dmjFj0ESoaTs To shut down the system I just cut the ground so the connector to do that... grounds are all connected. The system ...

LV8729V with STM32

Hi Im using a LV8729 @ 28V with a STM32 pins connected directly to the inputs of the LV8729 (no resistors or anything else) and of course I burn several STM32 units from Robotdyn... it hurts! And yes I need the 28V for hi speed on a big Telescope control... My question is Do I need to use opto coupl...

yes I try it but it seems that the user setup file config is not just un comment a single line....
