MotorControl software development kit (SDK) for C2000™ MCUs

C2000WARE-MOTORCONTROL-SDK

ACTIVE

This product has been released to the market and is available for purchase. For some products, newer alternatives may be available.

Description

• MotorControl SDK for C2000™ microcontrollers (MCU) is a cohesive set of software infrastructure, tools, and documentation designed to minimize C2000 MCU based motor control system development time targeted for various three-phase motor control applications. The software includes firmware that runs on C2000 motor control evaluation modules (EVMs) and TI designs (TIDs) which are targeted for industrial drive and other motor control MotorControl SDK provides all the needed resources at every stage of development and evaluation for high performance motor control applications.
• A copy of C2000Ware is provided as part of the SDK and hence offers device-specific drivers and support software to complete examples in sophisticated system applications
• Please note below which C2000 series are supported in this SDK. Other C2000 series are still supported by previous motor control software infrastructure such as MotorWare and controlSUITE.

Features

• Complete software repository for C2000 MCU Motor Control Applications
• InstaSPIN-FOC: Sensorless FOC solutions
  • Sensorless Torque or Velocity Field Oriented Control
  • FAST™ software observer for premium rotor Flux, Angle, Speed, and Torque estimations
  • Motor Parameter Identification
  • Observer and torque control loop automatic tuning
  • Premium performance for low-speed and highly dynamic applications
• DesignDRIVE: Sensored FOC solutions
  • Sensored Velocity or Position Field Oriented Control
  • Position feedback: Resolver, Incremental and Absolute Encoders
  • Current sense techniques: Low-side shunt, in-line current sampling, and sigma-delta filter demodulation
  • Fast Current Loop (FCL): Optimized software library that takes full advantage of hardware resources to accelerate the sampling, processing, and actuation of the system to achieve the highest control bandwidth for a given PWM frequency in servo control applications.
  • Real-time connectivity examples
• Code Composer Studio based TI Resource Explorer Graphical User Interface (GUI) for intuitive navigation of software, development kits, libraries, user guides, application notes, and more.
  • Auto-loading of Code Composer Studio example projects
  • View the online TI Resource Explorer for MotorControl SDK
