Where can I find DRV8312-69M-KIT default flash firmware?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MOTORWARE

Hi

I am looking for some guidance and help with a new motor controller board.  

I recently purchased DRV8312-69M-KIT.  The kit comes with controlCARD TMDSCNCD28069MISO.  

I would like to be able to reflash the controlCARD to the original firmware.  I would like to be able to run InstaSPIN_FOC_F2806xM gui.  

Where can I find the original default firmware that comes on that controlCARD module?  

Is there a download for it somewhere?  

Where can i find the source code for that firmware?

A quick response is highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

  • Omid,

    Please find all the firmware for F28069M control cards in MotorWare. MotorWare is our software development kit designed to be used with our InstaSPIN-FOC and InstaSPIN-MOTION motor control software. There are multiple labs and all of the source code needed to run InstaSPIN on our InstaSPIN-enabled C2000 MCUs. In addition, there are guides for installing and using the InstaSPIN GUIs that you mentioned you are interested in using.

  • Hi Sean,
    I appreciate the quick response.

    I have downloaded and installed MotorWare on my machine.
    I have installed CCS6.2 on my machine.
    I have loaded all examples/labs into my CCS6.2 project as well.

    I am trying to identify when lab matches the default firmware that comes on the controlCARD. I know the GUI seem to be associated with appProgram.out, but how was appProgram.out created? Which lab or source code is creating that firmware file?

    A quick response is highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
  • Omid,


    To my knowledge, there is no default firmware loaded onto the devices. The only thing that is programmed ahead of shipping is the ROM. For instance, if you took a brand new device, but it on a board and powered it, it by default would do nothing i.e. no PWM signals, no GPIO toggling, no ADC reads, etc.
