The SPC5-MCTK-01 Automotive Motor Controller Toolkit from STMicroelectronics combines control and power components with ST’s SPC5-MCTK-LIB Field Oriented Control (FOC) software library and system monitoring tools.
The toolkit incorporates the SPC560P-DISP MCU platform for the SPC560P automotive microcontroller with an EVAL-L9907 evaluation board for the L9907 motor driver and an inverter. It also includes a 24V, 64W motor to provide users with a complete evaluation system which is quick to set up.
Software is an important component of the platform: the software library is designed for flexibility and ease of integration into the SPC5 platform, which supports both the SPC560P and the SPC56EL MCUs.
The software package includes:
- The motor control library, which can drive single- or dual-FOC three-phase permanent magnet motors. It supports power stages with a single- or two-shunt topology while managing Hall, encoder and resolver types of position sensor. It also supports sensorless configurations.
- A plug-in configurator integrated into the SPC5Studio Open Development Environment, which helps the user to find the best setting for control efficiency and performance.
- SPC5 Motor Control Live Monitor to check and control the motor, and to change control algorithm parameters such as amplification gain and reference speed on the fly. Demonstration application examples are available for the SPC560P, L9907, STGAP1AS and L99ASC03G.
