Acve-Semi’s Power Applicaon Controller
TM
(PAC
TM
) IC Family offers highly integrated,
single-IC soluons for BLDC and PMSM motor controls perfect for Power Tool soluons.
PAC
TM
family of ICs, specifically the PAC5220, PAC5223 and PAC5250, along with firmware IP
for sensorless BLDC and FOC control, offer beer system performance, efficiency and
reliability while reducing total system footprint, BOM cost and me-to-market in these
applicaons.
SMALLEST SYSTEM FOOTPRINT: In a ny 6mm x 6mm QFN package, PAC
TM
integrates required
power management, up to 70V, 1A gate drivers for 3-phase motor control, analog front-end
along with 32-bit ARM Cortex-M0 core to enable high-performance BLDC motor in smallest
system footprint. PAC
TM
also includes serial interfaces control, high-speed PWM Engines,
mers, and sophiscated hardware based protecon blocks for improved system reliability.
BOM COST REDUCTION WITH POWERFUL ALL-IN-ONE INTEGRATION: PAC
TM
ICs integrate high
voltage high-side and low-side gate drivers for 3-phase control, offering superior switching
performance than those in typical discrete implementaons. The high level of integraon with
mul-mode power manager, single-ended and differenal amps, on-chip temperature sensing,
protecon blocks also help reduce external components for lowest BOM cost and system
footprint.
HIGH PERFORMANCE: PAC
TM
Architecture has several features and clocking schemes to
enhance performance and reduce current consumpon such as during total system shutdown
or hibernate mode.
SYSTEM SCALABILITY: PAC
TM
ICs are highly configurable for different input power require-
ments (direct input from baery, AC input or DC input through buck or boost modes), output
drives with 3-half bridge drivers, open drains, GPIOs, and programmable ARM Cortex core.
PAC5250 with integrated 600V gatedrivers is ideal for AC powered tools, whereas PAC5223
with 1A/1A HS/LS drivers would be ideal for up to 70V BLDC motor based power tools. PAC
soluons can scale from a few was to a few kilo was with minimal design efforts and system
component changes.
PROVEN FIRMWARE IP & TOOLS: PAC
TM
motor soluons are supported with reference
designs and high-quality IP for sensored & sensorless control. In addion, soware tools such
as motor tuning GUI help reduce development me and me-to-market. PAC

Soware
Development Kit (SDK) is available for IAR, Coocox and Keil IDEs.
