Abstract
A multiphase motor driving circuit includes: a power stage circuit; and a control circuit. In a motor braking mode, when a holding voltage is less than the first voltage threshold, a first sub-mode is entered, in which the control circuit controls at least a portion of switches in the power stage circuit with a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal to switch periodically, thereby converting a back electromotive force (EMF) of a multiphase motor into the holding voltage to supply power to the control circuit. In the motor braking mode, when the holding voltage is greater than the second voltage threshold, a second sub-mode is entered, in which the control circuit controls at least a portion of switches in the power stage circuit with the PWM signal to keep them continuously conductive, thereby consuming the back EMF of the multiphase motor to reduce a speed of the multiphase motor.
