GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TDA 1085C triggers a triac accordingly to the speed
regulation requirements. Motor speed is digitally sensed by
a tachogenerator and then converted into an analog voltage.
The speed set is externally fixed and is applied to the
internal linear regulation input after having been submitted
to programmable acceleration ramps. The overall result
consists in a full motor speed range with two acceleration
ramps which allow efficient washing machine control
(Distribute function).
Additionally, the TDA 1085C protects the whole system
against AC line stop or variations, overcurrent in the motor
and tachogenerator failure.
INPUT/OUTPUT FUNCTIONS
(Refer to Figures 1 and 8)
Voltage Regulator (Pins 9 and 10)
This is a parallel type regulator able to sink a large amount of
current and offering good characteristics. Current flow is
provided from AC line by external dropping resistors R1, R2,
and rectifier: This half wave current is used to feed a smothering
capacitor, the voltage of which is checked by the IC.
When V
CC
is reached, the excess of current is derived by
another dropping resistor R10 and by Pin 10. These three
resistors must be determined in order:
To let 1.0 mA flow through Pin 10 when AC line is
minimum and V
CC
consumption is maximum (fast
ramps and pulses present).
To let V
10
reach 3.0 V when AC line provides
maximum current and V
CC
consumption is minimum
(no ramps and no pulses).
All along the main line cycle, the Pin 10 dynamic range
must not be exceeded unless loss of regulation.
An AC line supply failure would cause shut down.
The double capacitive filter built with R1 and R2 gives an
efficient V
CC
smoothing and helps to remove noise from set
speeds.
Speed Sensing (Pins 4, 11, 12)
The IC is compatible with an external analog speed
sensing: its output must be applied to Pin 4, and Pin 12
connected to Pin 8.
In most of the applications it is more convenient to use a
digital speed sensing with an inexpensive tachogenerator
which doesnt need any tuning. During every positive cycle at
Pin 12, the capacitor C
Pin
11
is charged to almost V
CC
and
during this time, Pin 4 delivers a current which is 10 times the
one charging C
Pin
11
. The current source gain is called G and
is tightly specified, but nevertheless requires an adjustment on
R
Pin
4
. The current into this resistor is proportional to C
Pin
11
and to the motor speed; being filtered by a capacitor, V
Pin
4
becomes smothered and represents the “true actual motor
speed”.
To maintain linearity into the high speed range, it is important
to verify that C
Pin
11
is fully charged: the internal source on Pin
11 has 100KW impedance. Nevertheless C
Pin 11
has to be as
high as possible as it has a large influence on FV/C temperature
factor. A 470 KW resistor between Pins 11 and 9 reduces leakage
currents and temperature factor as well, down to neglectable
effects.
Pin 12 also has a monitoring function: when its voltage is
above 5.0V, the trigger pulses are inhibited and the IC is
reset. It also senses the tachogenerator continuity, and in case
of any circuit aperture, it inhibits pulse, avoiding the motor to
run out of control. In the TDA 1085C, Pin 12 is negatively
clamped by an internal diode which removes the necessity of
the external one used in the former circuit.
Ramp Generator (Pins 5, 6, 7)
The true Set Speed value taken in consideration by the
regulation is the output of the ramp generator (Pin 7). With
a given value of speed set input (Pin 5), the ramp generator
charges an external capacitor C
Pin
7
up to the moment V
Pin5
(set speed) equals V
Pin
4
(true speed), see Figure 2. The IC
has an internal charging current source of 1.2mA and
delivers it from 0 to 12 V at Pin 7. It is the high acceleration
ramp (5.0 s typical) which allows rapid motor speed changes
without excessive strains on the mechanics. In addition, the
TDA 1085C offers the possibility to break this high
acceleration with the introduction of a low acceleration
ramp (called Distribution) by reducing the Pin 7 source
current down to 5.0mA under Pin 6 full control, as shown by
following conditions:
Presence of high acceleration ramp V
Pin
5
> V
Pin
4
Distribution occurs in the V
Pin
4
range (true motor
speed) defined by V
Pin
6
x V
Pin
4
x 2.0 V
Pin
6
For two fixed values of V
Pin
5
and V
Pin
6
, the motor speed
will have high acceleration, excluding the time for V
Pin
4
to
go from V
Pin
6
to two times this value, high acceleration
again, up to the moment the motor has reached the set speed
value, at which it will stay, see Figure 3.
Should a reset happen (whatever the cause would be), the
above mentioned successive ramps will be fully reprocessed
from 0 to the maximum speed. If V
Pin
6
= 0, only the high
acceleration ramp occurs.
To get a real zero speed position, Pin 5 has been designed
in such a way that its voltage from 0 to 80 mV is interpreted
as a true zero. As a consequence, when changing the speed
set position, the designer must be sure that any transient zero
would not occur: if any, the entire circuit will be reset.

As the voltages applied by Pins 5 and 6 are derived from
the internal voltage regulator supply and Pin 4 voltage is
also derived from the same source, motor speed (which is
determined by the ratios between above mentioned
voltages) is totally independent from V
CC
variations and
temperature factor.
Control Amplifier (Pin 16)
It amplifies the difference between true speed (Pin 4) and
set speed (Pin 5), through the ramp generator. Its output
available at Pin 16 is a double sense current source with a
maximum capability of ± 100 mA and a specified
transconductance (340 mA/V typical). Pin 16 drives directly
the trigger pulse generator, and must be loaded by an
electrical network which compensates the mechanical
characteristics of the motor and its load, in order to provide
stability in any condition and shortest transient response; see
Figure 4.
This network must be adjusted experimentally.
In case of a periodic torque variations, Pin 16 directly
provides the phase angle oscillations.
Trigger Pulse Generator (Pins 1, 2, 5, 13, 14, 15)
This circuit performs four functions:
The conversion of the control amplifier DC output
level to a proportional firing angle at every main line
half cycle.
The calibration of pulse duration.
The repetition of the pulse if the triac fails to latch on if
the current has been interrupted by brush bounce.
The delay of firing pulse until the current crosses zero
at wide firing angles and inductive loads.
R
Pin
15
programs the Pin 14 discharging current. Saw
tooth signal is then fully determined by R15 and C14
(usually 47 nF). Firing pulse duration and repetition period
are in inverse ratio to the saw tooth slope.
Pin 13 is the pulse output and an external limiting resistor
is mandatory. Maximum current capability is 200 mA.
Current Limiter (Pin 3)
Safe operation of the motor and triac under all conditions
is ensured by limiting the peak current. The motor current
develops an alternative voltage in the shunt resistor (0.05 W
in Figure 4). The negative half waves are transferred to Pin
3 which is positively preset at a voltage determined by
resistors R3 and R4. As motor current increases, the
dynamical voltage range of Pin 3 increases and when Pin 3
becomes slightly negative in respect to Pin8, a current
starts to circulate in it. This current, amplified typically 180
times, is then used to discharge Pin 7 capacitor and, as a
result, reduces firing angle down to a value where an
equilibrium is reached. The choice of resistors R3, R4 and
shunt determines the magnitude of the discharge current
signals on C
Pin7
.
Notice that the current limiter acts only on peak triac
current.
APPLICATION NOTES
(Refer to Figure 4)
Printed Circuit Layout Rules
In the common applications, where TDA 1085C is used,
there is on the same board, presence of high voltage, high
currents as well as low voltage signals where millivolts
count. It is of first magnitude importance to separate them
from each other and to respect the following rules:
Capacitor decoupling pins, which are the inputs of the
same comparator, must be physically close to the IC,
close to each other and grounded in the same point.
Ground connection for tachogenerator must be directly
connected to Pin 8 and should ground only the tacho. In
effect, the latter is a first magnitude noise generator due
to its proximity to the motor which induces high dφ/dt
signals.
The ground pattern must be in the “star style” in order
to fully eliminate power currents flowing in the ground
network devoted to capacitors decoupling sensitive
Pins: 4, 5, 7, 11, 12, 14, 16.
As an example, Figure 5 presents a PC board pattern
which concerns the group of sensitive Pins and their
associated capacitors into which the a.m. rules have been
implemented. Notice the full separation of “Signal World”
from “Power”, one by line AB and their communication by
a unique strip.
These rules will lead to much satisfactory volume
production in the sense that speed adjustment will stay
valid in the entire speed range.
Power Supply
As dropping resistor dissipates noticeable power, it is
necessary to reduce the I
CC
needs down to a minimum.
Triggering pulses, if a certain number of repetitions are kept
in reserve to cope with motor brush wearing at the end of its
life, are the largest I
CC
user. Classical worst case
configuration has to be considered to select dropping
resistor. In addition, the parallel regulator must be always
into its dynamic range, i.e., I
Pin
10
over 1.0 mA and V
Pin
10
over 3.0 V in any extreme configuration. The double
filtering cell is mandatory.

Tachogenerator Circuit
The tacho signal voltage is proportional to the motor speed.
Stability considerations, in addition, require an RC filter, the
pole of which must be looked at. The combination of both
elements yield a constant amplitude signal on Pin 12 in most
of the speed range. It is recommended to verify this maximum
amplitude to be within 1.0 V peak in order to have the largest
signal/noise ratio without resetting the integrated circuit
(which occurs if V
Pin
12
reaches 5.5 V). It must be also verified
that the Pin 12 signal is approximately balanced between
“high” (over 300 mV) and “low”. An 8-poles tacho is a
minimum for low speed stability and a 16-poles is even better.
The RC pole of the tacho circuit should be chosen within
30 Hz in order to be as far as possible from the 150 Hz which
corresponds to the AC line 3rd harmonic generated by the
motor during starting procedure. In addition, a high value
resistor coming from V
CC
introduces a positive offset at Pin
12, removes noise to be interpreted as a tacho signal. This
offset should be designed in order to let Pin 12 reach at least
- 200 mV (negative voltage) at the lowest motor speed. We
remember the necessity of an individual tacho ground
connection.
Frequency to Voltage Converter - F V/C
C
Pin
11 has a recommended value of 820 pF for 8-poles
tachos and maximum motor rpm of 15000, and R
Pin
11 must
be always 470 K.
R
Pin4
should be chosen to deliver within 12 V at
maximum motor speed in order to maximize signal/noise
ratio. As the FV/C ratio as well as the C
Pin11
value are
dispersed, R
Pin4
must be adjustable and should be made of
a fixed resistor in service with a trimmer representing 25%
of the total. Adjustment would become easier.
Once adjusted, for instance at maximum motor speed, the
FV/C presents a residual non linearity; the conversion factor
(mV per RPM) increases by within 7.7% as speed draws to
zero. The guaranteed dispersion of the latter being very
narrow, a maximum 1% speed error is guaranteed if during
Pin 5 network design the small set values are modified, once
forever, according this increase.

Speed Set (Pin 5)
Upon designer choice, a set of external resistors apply a
series of various voltages corresponding to the various
motor speeds. When switching external resistors, verify that
no voltage below 80 mV is ever applied to Pin 5. If so, a full
circuit reset will occur.
Ramps Generator (Pin 6)
If only a high acceleration ramp is needed, connect Pin 6
to ground.
When a Distribute ramp should occur, preset a voltage on
Pin 6 which corresponds to the motor speed starting ramp
point. Distribution (or low ramp) will continue up to the
moment the motor speed would have reached twice the
starting value.
The ratio of two is imposed by the IC. Nevertheless, it
could be externally changed downwards (Figure 6) or
upwards (Figure 7).
The distribution ramp can be shortened by an external
resistor from V
CC
charging C
Pin
7
, adding its current to the
internal 5.0 mA generator.
Power Circuits
Triac Triggering pulse amplitude must be determined by
Pin13 resistor according to the needs in Quadrant IV.
Trigger pulse duration can be disturbed by noise signals
generated by the triac itself, which interfere within Pins 14
and 16, precisely those which determine it. While easily
visible, this effect is harmless.
The triac must be protected from high AC line dV/dt during
external disturbances by 100 nF x 100 W network.
Shunt resistor must be as non-inductive as possible. It can
be made locally by using constantan alloy wire.
When the load is a DC fed universal motor through a
rectifier bridge, the triac must be protected from commutating
dV/dt by a 1.0 to 2.0mH coil in series with MT
2
.
Synchronization functions are performed by resistors
sensing AC line and triac conduction. 820 k values are
normal but could be reduced down to 330 k in order to detect
the “zeros” with accuracy and to reduce the residual DC line
component below 20 mA.
Current Limitation
The current limiter starts to discharge Pin 7 capacitor
(reference speed) as the motor current reaches the designed
threshold level. The loop gain is determined by the resistor
connecting Pin 3 to the series shunt. Experience has shown
that its optimal value for a 10Arms limitation is within
2.0 kW. Pin 3 input has a sensitivity in current which is
limited to reasonable values and should not react to spikes.
If not used, Pin 3 must be connected to a maximum
positive voltage of 5.0V rather than be left open.
Loop Stability
The Pin 16 network is predominant and must be adjusted
experimentally during module development. The values
indicated in Figure 4 are typical for washing machine
applications but accept large modifications from one model
to another. R16 (the sole restriction) should not go below
33 k, otherwise slew rate limitation will cause large transient
errors for load steps.
