Product overview

Description

The STEVAL-CTM020A is a compact MCU-based control board designed for advanced motor control applications, with a special focus on multiphase and multimotor FOC drives.

Based on the STM32G474QB microcontroller, which integrates dedicated motor control peripherals, the board provides a high-performance and flexible platform for implementing field-oriented control (FOC) and other sophisticated control schemes.

The hardware architecture supports a wide range of synchronous and asynchronous brushless motors, including permanent magnet, induction, synchronous reluctance, and switched reluctance machines.

Thanks to its multimotor and multiphase drive capability, the STEVAL-CTM020A is well suited for complex motion systems that require independent or coordinated control of several motors.

The control board is designed to be used in combination with external power stages or inverter boards through the MC connector V2, allowing easy adaptation to different power ratings and topologies while reusing the same control platform.

Multiple feedback options can be supported, such as sensorless control, hall-effect sensors and encoder-based sensing, depending on the specific system configuration.

The STEVAL-CTM020A is fully zest-compatible and is part of the STM32 motor control ecosystem, ensuring seamless integration with ST motor control firmware libraries, configuration tools, and development environments. Debug and communication interfaces available via the STLINK connector enable straightforward tuning, monitoring, and parameterization of motor control applications.
