AURIX™ TC3xx Motor Control Application Kit

Since CO2 reduction has become a very high priority in the industrial, consumer and automotive fields, mechanical motor drives are gradually being replaced by smart, electrically controlled motors. Aiming to fulfill this expanding segment, the AURIX™ TC3xx Motor Control Application Kit offers an easy and cost effective entry door for developing Motor control applications. It consists of a 3-phase motor control power board equipped with all assembly circuits required for sensor based and sensorless based field oriented control (FOC), as well for the block commutation control. It includes an AURIX™ TC387 application kit TFT, 3-phase motor control Power board, a BLDC motor with encoder, Power supply, and pre-flashed SW.
