TMDSCNCD28035: Instaspin bldc problem with F28035 Piccolo control card for drv8301

Part Number: TMDSCNCD28035
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV8301,

I recently tried to run a 3 phase bldc motor with the DRV8301 controller and a F28035 piccolo control card.

The problem I'm encountering is that my control card does not have a mini usb slot for connecting it to my laptop and control the motor using instaspin bldc gui.

I need help with connecting the control card to my laptop and use the GUI.

I also have a docking station for my control card and i have already flashed the sensorless bldc program into my control card.

Only the TMDSCNCD28035ISO has on-board isolated JTAG debug probe (Mini-USB XDS100v1). You are using an older controlCard that can't support the GUI directly, you have to use CCS to debug this project.

Hello Yanming Luo,thank you for your answer

Can you please clarify on how am i supposed to run the GUI using this card?

I have flashed the program and the gui for instaspin bldc is also present in my folder

How do i make it work without my onboard usb jtag?

Thank you

Please have a look at the GUI user's guide, and follow the instruction to connect the controlCard, make sure that the switches on the controlCard are set properly.

And tell us what have you done, which step did you meet what problem, which should help us to understand your question.

All the switches are in the correct position...once i launch my targer configuration and click on connect target it shows that target cannot be connected
