View RDK_BLDC
The Stellaris® Brushless DC (BLDC) Motor Control Reference Design Kit (RDK-BLDC) with Ethernet and CAN contains all the necessary hardware and software for you to design, develop, and integrate your BLDC motor applications. The RDK-BLDC combines the strength and flexibility of Stellaris microcontrollers with Fairchild Semiconductor's power modules to create a sophisticated four-quadrant motor control design for three-phase brushless DC motors rated at up to 36 V. Brushless DC motors are particularly suited for use in factory automation, robotics, electric wheelchairs and mobility devices, pumping and ventilation systems, and small appliances.
