Product overview
Description
STM32 microcontrollers offer the performance of the industry-standard Arm® Cortex®-M cores. They run either vector control or FOC modes, widely used in high-performance drives for air conditioning, home appliances, drones, building and industrial automation, medical and e-bike applications.
STM32 MC SDK (motor control software development kit) firmware includes the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) firmware library (FOC control) and the STM32 motor control workbench (to configure the FOC firmware library parameters), with its graphical user interface (GUI).
STM32 motor control workbench is a PC software that reduces the design effort and time needed for the STM32 PMSM FOC firmware configuration.
The user generates a project file through the GUI, and initializes the library according to the application needs. Some algorithm variables can be monitored and changed in real time.

STMicroelectronics’ newly-released 6.0 version of the advanced Motor Control Software Development Kit (SDK) brings a brand new Workbench tool, featuring a modern UI with a fully reworked use flow. This new UI has been designed to guide the user through every phase of the configuration.
The P-NUCLEO-IHM03 STM32 motor-control pack is a kit composed of the X-NUCLEO-IHM16M1 board, the NUCLEO-G431RB board, a brushless Gimbal motor (GBM2804H-100T), and the DC power supply.
The STM32G4 Series combines a 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M4 core (with FPU and DSP instructions) running at 170 MHz combined with 3 different hardware accelerators: ART Accelerator™, CCM-SRAM routine booster and mathematical accelerators.
