DRV8301 -69M kit support for the imttusa BLDC Motor

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320F28069M, LAUNCHXL-F28027F, LAUNCHXL-F28069M, BOOSTXL-DRV8301

The DRV8301-69M-KIT  enabled by the Piccolo TMS320F28069M MCU with InstaSPIN-FOC and InstaSPIN-MOTION software. The kit is ideal for spinning three phase brushless DC and brushless AC (BLAC) motors – often referred to as permanent magnet synchronous (PMSM) motors. Utilizing Texas Instruments’ new InstaSPIN-FOC and InstaSPIN-MOTIONtechnologies,

  • No problem.

    The BOOSTXL-DRV8301 is actually a better inverter for these motors, perfectly scaled.  The only issue with using BOOSTXL-DRV8301 is that the only controller you can use today is the LAUNCHXL-F28027F. So if you wanted to use the larger F2806x or wanted to use InstaSPIN-MOTION you can't.....we are building a new LAUNCHXL-F28069M LaunchPad, but the production leadtime is being a real pain, it won't be available until at least September.

    The DRV8301-69M-KIT will work, but the Voltage (66V) and Current (42A) scaling is overkill for these motors, so you will lose some valuable resolution.  This means you will lose a bit of low speed performance.  This EVM also doesn't have the best current feedback at highest speeds. The layout of the BOOST inverter is better.

    So, either one will work. If you are planning to use F28027F MCU I'd get the BOOST. If you were leaning towards using F2806x or InstaSPIN-MOTION evaluation, get the DRV8301-69M.
