SR5E1-MCTK-01

The SR5E1-MCTK-01 is a motor control kit composed of the SR5E1-EVBE3000D board and the X-NUCLEO-IHM08M1 board together with the field-oriented control library (FOC) (SR5E1-MCTK-LIB), and monitoring tool (live monitor).

This platform provides a motor-control solution for three-phase motors, particularly suitable for developing permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) and brushless DC (BLDC) motors.

The kit includes a 24 V, 65 W motor to simplify the set-up time.

The software is a key component of the platform and the package includes the motor control library, capable of driving single FOC 3-phase permanent magnet motors for ICS or 2-shunt current sensing topology power stage while managing HALL, encoder, and resolver sensors as well as sensor-less algorithm configuration. A helpful plug-in configurator fully integrated into an https://www.st.com/en/development-tools/stellarstudio.html open development environment helps and guides the users to find the best setting in terms of control efficiency and performances based on the target platform and application.

Using a live monitor (LM), users can visualize motor speed and power, and change firmware settings at runtime, such as amplification gain or PI parameters. It is also possible to get the last diagnostic from the drivers on the power stage.

Demo applications are available to speed up the development and prototyping of new motor control applications.
