Introduction

BLDC drivers are used across industrial and automotive applications for higher efficiency, higher speed, reliable and quiet system design. Field oriented control (FOC) is a popular control method because of best-in class acoustics and load-dynamic performance. However, to successfully run a motor with FOC control method, much effort is needed to tune a large number of parameters.

TI's MOTORSTUDIO is an easy-to-use graphical user interface (GUI) to simplify the tuning process of TI's Brushless DC (BLDC) motor drivers. SmartTune is an intelligent auto configuration tool in MOTORSTUDIO, which can help users, especially beginners, to quickly set up and spin the motor with only 3 parameters input.
