The EVSPIN32G06Q1S3 board from STMicroelectronics is a complete three-phase inverter based on the STSPIN32G0601 controller, which integrates a three‑phase 600 V gate driver and an Arm® Cortex®-M0+-based STM32 microcontroller.
The KIT_PSC3M5_EVK is an evaluation board for the Infineon PSOCâ„¢ Control C3 family of microcontrollers.Â
The kit features PSOC Control C3M5, a high-performance and low-power single-core Arm® Cortex® M33-based MCU intended for use in motor-control applications. In addition to the CPU subsystem, the chip contains advanced real-time control peripherals, such as a high-performance programmable analog subsystem, comparators, advanced timers with high-resolution capability, up to six serial communication blocks, and two CAN FD interfaces for system communication.
The RTK-251-SinkCharger-RAA489118 from Renesas is a single-port reference design for implementing battery systems with from two to seven lithium-ion battery cells connected in series. It supports two modes: in one, power is supplied solely from the USB Type-C® port; in the other, it enables a power bank function in combination with a li-ion battery with a battery management system (BMS).
Due to losses in the cable, onboard charger, and board, the USB Power Delivery (PD) controller requires appropriate USB Type-C input levels from the USB Type-C source device to operate the battery system effectively. Switches on this evaluation board allow the selection of the number of batteries in series and the charging current.
The firmware for this evaluation board is generated using an instruction tool called VIDWriter.
The B-G431B-ESC1 Discovery kit is based on the STM32G431CB microcontroller, the L6387 driver and STL180N6F7 power MOSFETs, all from STMicroelectronics. The kit is composed of a main power board and a daughterboard with an embedded ST-LINK/V2-1 debugger.Â
The kit implements an electronic speed controller (ESC) which drives a single three-phase brushless motor performing a sensorless field-oriented control (FOC) algorithm and six-step control with speed regulation. It also provides an active braking function algorithm. The sensorless FOC algorithm ensures long operating time and optimal dynamic performance.
The Discovery kit accepts command signals from an external unit for driving and monitoring, such as a flight control board for a drone. The kit is equipped with several communication bus interfaces: UART, CAN, and PWM channels. A potentiometer and a user button are available for user control.Â
The daughterboard includes a 5 V battery eliminator circuit. The main board includes over-current, over-voltage and thermal protection.Â
The form factor makes this kit suitable for small and very light radio-controlled vehicles such as first-person view racing drones, while the motor-current capability fits the power requirement of larger vehicles such as prosumer drones.
STMicroelectronics has implemented a simple and innovative ac-dc front-end circuit which enables the designer to perform inrush current limitation in any converter that has an input rectifier bridge topology.
The EVLPWD5T60 from STMicroelectronics is a 3-phase power board which allows engineers to evaluate the features of the PWD5T60 integrated motor driver IC.
The board supports a three- or single-shunt current sensing topology. A strip connector provides an easy interface to a microcontroller motor-control board. In addition, a 34-pin ST morpho header can be used to connect the EVLPWD5T60 board to an STM32 Nucleo MCU board through the X-NUCLEO-IHM09M1 motor-control expansion board.
Key features of the board include:Â
