Description
STM32 microcontrollers offer the performance of the industry-standard Arm® Cortex®-M cores. They run either FOC or 6-step 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) package includes the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) firmware library (FOC and 6-step control), the STM32 motor control workbench (to configure the firmware library parameters), and the motor pilot (to control the motor).
The 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.
The STM32 motor pilot is a PC tool allowing to control the motor, tune the parameters, and see the algorithm variables at PWM frequency like an oscilloscope.
