I have a bike that was using the Infineon 12FET 4110 that I had from em3ev.com; it was working well, but I wanted to see if I could use a smaller controller. And someone here explained to me that 3077 FETs are better (less power consumed by the FETs) at low voltages.
So I installed the 6 Fet 3077 in the same bike. It has a 24v, 250 watt motor, and I'm running it from 8S Lipo. At first, it ran OK, but after a few minutes, it was running rather jerkily under load. It was giving current to the motor, then stopping, then giving current, then stopping; each cycle was taking about one second.
I used the bike motor tester that I got from em3ev (it's the same as the Lyen one); it reported that the halls are OK, and that the windings work (but I had to turn the wheel backwards to get this reading, and maybe someone can tell me why this was?). It said that the throttle was OK, and that the controller was OK (it showed three LEDs that cycled round the circle of the tester).
So then I put on the 12Fet3077, thinking that maybe the 6Fet3077 wasn't powerful enough.
I got the same "stuttering" effect.
So then I replaced the 12F4110 that I had there before, and now the bike runs smoothly; this means that the bike motor and halls must be OK.
Can anyone suggest what the problem might be?
Thanks.
