As a part of their Quick Solutions, Renesas has created a reference design for a handy vacuum cleaner with two operating levels (high or low) for suction power. It uses a battery, meaning the device can be used without a cord. The RL78/G1F has a built-in comparator (CMP0), programmable gain amplifier (PGA), and pulse width modulation (PWM) option unit A (PWMOPA) for overcurrent detection and PWM output-force cutoff control. The motor control auxiliary timer and 4-input selectable comparator help achieve sensorless rotor position detection even when the motor is stopped or rotating at high speeds (exceeding maximum 50,000 RPM). The ISL94202 Li-Ion battery monitor IC's power management provides battery charge and discharge control, current and voltage monitoring, and battery balance control.
