Greetings,
I have worked on my motor controller and I sensed a fire smell, after that I opened the black cover and found it like that
and it didn't work after that
Is there a way to fix this ?
Please help
there is a project that need to be submitted and the deadline is in two weeks
looking forward to hear from you
Thanks in advance

Hello,
We have submitted a response to you via email.
Just looking at the damage, it looks like it could have been caused by motor regeneration. Did your application have the protection circuit as shown in the datasheet and user manual with the diode + fuse in parallel to the vmot line and battery?

Thanks,
I have received it and replied.
I have connected it directly to the battery as shown in the datasheet but not as the protection circuit.

If the battery gets cut off from the controller while the motor is still spinning, then the motor will regenerate voltage and current back into the controller. If it doesn't have anywhere to go, it will feedback directly into the controller causing damage similar to what you have there.
If you are not using the pre-charge resistor, just make sure to extend the diode to the vmot line as the flow would go back to the battery causing the battery to recharge.
Voltage spikes will damage the Fet drivers which will in turn cause the fets to blow.

Once the controller is damaged, this circuit protection isn't going to solve anything.

Your controller has to be fixed. This is only for protecting before damage can occur.Marwa wrote: will it help after the damage ?

can I change the damaged part locally ? (in some electronic shops)
I haven't received a reply after I replied to you.
