Part Number: EV18H47A
The Motor Control System (MCS) Development Tool Ecosystem enables rapid prototyping of motor control designs using the dsPIC® DSCs, SAM, PIC32MK, PIC32MC and PIC32C MCUs. The MCS Development Tools consist of modular and interchangeable inverter boards, controller boards (Dual In-Line Modules or DIMs) and expansion boards. DIMs and expansion boards must be purchased separately.
Features
- Three-phase motor control power stage
- Motor phase current feedback to implement Field Oriented Control (FOC) of a PMSM/BLDC motor
- DC bus current feedback for overcurrent protection and to demonstrate a single shunt current reconstruction algorithm
- DC bus voltage feedback for overvoltage protection and DC bus compensation
- Phase voltage feedback to implement sensorless Back-EMF (BEMF) control or flying start (windmilling)
- Optional analog sensor (e.g., thermistor) interface circuit
- Hall sensor interface
- Quadrature Encoder Interface (QEI) for an optical/incremental shaft encoder
- MOSFET temperature measurement
- Overvoltage and current protection circuits
- PICkit™ On-Board 4 (PKOB4) for programming and debugging
- Optional ICSP™ header for interfacing a Microchip programmer/debugger
- 120-pin high-speed edge card connector to interface Dual In-Line Modules (DIMs) controller boards
- User interface elements:
- Two debug LEDs
- Two push buttons
- One potentiometer
- MCU Reset push button
- Fault Reset push button
- Power-on status indication LED
- Six PWM indication LEDs
- Two dual row headers for interfacing Microchip Xplained Proadd-on boards or other user interface boards to extend the application functionality
- On-board EEPROM for storing board or motor configuration information
- Dynamic brake circuit to support regenerative braking applications
- Auxiliary power supply to power the circuitry and external interfaces
