Description
The integrated circuit U211B is designed as a phase-control circuit in bipolar technol-
ogy with an internal frequency-to-voltage converter. The device includes an internal
control amplifier which means it can be used for speed-regulated motor applications.
Amongst others, the device features integrated load limitation, tacho monitoring and
soft-start functions, to realize sophisticated motor control systems.

Mains Supply
The U211B is equipped with voltage limiting and can therefore be supplied directly from
the mains. The supply voltage between pin 2 (+ pol/_|_) and pin 3 builds up across D
1
and R
1
and is smoothed by C
1
. The value of the series resistance can be approximated
using:

Further information regarding the design of the mains supply can be found in the section
“Design Hints” on page 8. The reference voltage source on pin 16 of typically -8.9 V is
derived from the supply voltage and is used for regulation.
Operation using an externally stabilized DC voltage is not recommended.
If the supply cannot be taken directly from the mains because the power dissipation in
R
1
would be too large, the circuit as shown in Figure 4 should be used.

Phase Control
The phase angle of the trigger pulse is derived by comparing the ramp voltage (which is
mains synchronized by the voltage detector) with the set value on the control input
pin 12. The slope of the ramp is determined by C
2
and its charging current. The charging
current can be varied using R
2
on pin 6. The maximum phase angle
a
max
can also be
adjusted by using R
2
.
When the potential on pin 7 reaches the nominal value predetermined at pin 12, a trig-
ger pulse is generated whose width t
p
is determined by the value of C
2
(the value of C
2
and hence the pulse width can be evaluated by assuming 8 µs/nF). At the same time, a
latch is set, so that as long as the automatic retriggering has not been activated, no
more pulses can be generated in that half cycle.
The current sensor on pin 1 ensures that, for operations with inductive loads, no pulse
will be generated in a new half cycle as long as a current from the previous half cycle is
still flowing in the opposite direction to the supply voltage at that instant. This makes
sure that “gaps” in the load current are prevented.
The control signal on pin 12 can be in the range of 0 V to -7 V (reference point pin 2).
If V
12
= -7 V, the phase angle is at maximum (
a
max
),
i.e., the current flow angle, is at
minimum. The phase angle is minimum (
a
min
)
when V
12
= V
2
.

Voltage Monitoring
As the voltage is built up, uncontrolled output pulses are avoided by internal voltage sur-
veillance. At the same time, all latches in the circuit (phase control, load limit regulation,
soft start) are reset and the soft-start capacitor is short circuited. Used with a switching
hysteresis of 300 mV, this system guarantees defined start-up behavior each time the
supply voltage is switched on or after short interruptions of the mains supply.
As soon as the supply voltage builds up (t
1
), the integrated soft start is initiated. Figure 5
shows the behavior of the voltage across the soft-start capacitor, which is identical with
the voltage on the phase-control input on pin 12. This behavior guarantees a gentle
start-up for the motor and automatically ensures the optimum run-up time.

is first charged up to the starting voltage V
0
with a current of typically 45 µA (t
2
). By
reducing the charging current to approximately 4 µA, the slope of the charging function
is also substantially reduced, so that the rotational speed of the motor only slowly
increases. The charging current then increases as the voltage across C
3
increases,
resulting in a progressively rising charging function which accelerates the motor more
and more with increasing rotational speed. The charging function determines the accel-
eration up to the set point. The charging current can have a maximum value of 55 µA.
