Kabel C Buchsen CAN. 3a (CANL) - Ventilbox - 3c (CANL Rück), 3b (CANH) - Ventilbox - 3d (CANH Rück). Jedes Segment ca. 60m. 9,3Ω Schleife gesamt. 42,3Ω und 51,2mH (!) zwischen 3a/3b hausseits mit Ventil an 3c/3d hausseits. 106nF zwischen 3a/3b hausseits mit 100nF an 3c/3d hausseits.

Folks, I bought two https://www.pololu.com/product/2136 an am investigating the CS output when driving ENABLE by PWM. To understand better I've also looked at VPROPI before it enters the 10k on-module resistor.

According to discussion in https://e2e.ti.com/support/motor-drivers-group/motor-drivers/f/motor-drivers-forum, VPROPI has a bandwidth of 1MHz but is very weak (<100uA).

What I find is that at 30kHz PWM CS is rather stable due to being buffered behind the 10k by 33nF to ground. But I also find that VPROPI is being distorted by the load imposed by the 33nF through the 10k. At 66% duty cycle SENSE alternates between 180mV and 0mV, VPROPI alternates between 670mV and 395mV, and CS reads 575mV (close to the expected 600mV of five times 120mV average SENSE). At 33% duty cycle SENSE alternates between 90mV and 0mV, VPROPI alternates between 235mV and 95V, and CS it at 145mV (again close to the expected 150mV of five times 30mV average SENSE).

The Hunter PGV-100 valve (24Ω, 55mH) requires 300mA to switch on and then 80mA to stay on. With 15V supply and the DRV8801 (with a 500mΩ Rsense, PHASE HIGH and MODE1 HIGH) a 55% PWM duty cycle gives 290mA current through the valve in steady state (SENSE 145mV/0mV, CS 400mV), and a 15% PWM duty cycle gives 80mA (SENSE 40mV/0mV, CS 30mV).

• TODO:
  • Probe valve without disabling interrupts.
  • Manufacture own board.
  • Power loss valve shut capacitor and logic
  • Measure air temperature and correct speed of sound accordingly.
  • Build soil humidity sensor.
  • Replace 120Ω by 150Ω (with DRV8833 voltage is around 8.5V, and we want to restrict the demagnetisation current to about the specified 50mA).
  • Process CAN REBOOT request
  • Case
  • Process manual switches
  • Support Gardena soil humidity sensor (see valvecontrol02, 1Ohm wet, 10kOhm dry, requires analog input pin for presence detection)
  • Implement valve opening/closing plan
