MIKROE’s new motor control Click board is dubbed BLDC FOC 2 Click. Developers can quickly develop proof-of-concept, prototype, and code new embedded solutions with the help of the compact Click add-on boards.
Using innovative Field-Oriented Control (FOC) techniques, BLDC FOC 2 Click offers robust and reliable control of three-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motors, ensuring smooth operation, high efficiency, and minimal acoustic noise.
BLDC FOC 2 Click is based on the A89307, an automotive FOC BLDC motor controller from Allegro Microsystems, designed to Deliver:
- Up to 15A of output current across a wide voltage range from 4.4V to 30V.
It Supports:
- Multiple operating modes, including constant speed, torque, power and open-loop control, while offering flexible configuration via EEPROM and I2C interface for parameter setting, ON/OFF control and speed feedback.
It also integrates Allegro’s proprietary Soft-On Soft-Off (SOSO) feature for quiet transitions, comprehensive protection mechanisms, and both analog and digital control mode.
The 1900-strong mikroBUS™-enabled Click board family from MIKROE now includes the BLDC FOC 2 Click. Additionally, the board has a ClickID feature that makes it easier to use by enabling automatic identification by the host system.
Devices come with the mikroSDK open-source libraries, which provide great freedom for assessment and customization, and can be used on any host system that supports the mikroBUS standard.
Key Comment
Nebojsa Matic, CEO of MIKROE said: “This new Click board is ideal for automotive and industrial applications such as battery cooling fans, radiator fans, and fuel or oil pump control systems. It is part of our 140+ strong family of motor control Click boards and over 850 projects – with working code – featuring the BLDC FOC 2 Click can be found on MIKROE’s embedded projects platform, EmbeddedWiki.”
