Dear TI team,

I am not pretty sure whether I'm posting my question on the right forum, however,... I am still a beginner with ccs and with the TI products, I have in hand a drv8301 boosterpack and a launchXL f28069M, I want to get started with Motor Ware labs to have an idea of motor controlling, I have several questions before I start this will help me save time ,

1. I want to choose a BLDC motor , can you recommend a motor where I can apply the labs without troubles, I mean which is easy to control , speed, torque, etc , using the motorware labs, forexample I read that there are alot of problems with low inductance motor with these labs. It would be really helpful if you help me choose one, since I dont know what problems I will face with these labs.

2. I want to work with MATLAB too, is there a workshop or examples for the connection and applications between matlab and the kit I have in hand.

Thank you.

Dear Yanming,

Thank you for your advice, about the motor, but I cannot find its datasheet (I want to know about all its parameters).

I mentioned the development module I have in hand ( the boosterpack and the launchpad), couldn’t this be enough to make labs work ? I mean to control the motor ? Or I should order something else.

I saw the DRV 8301-69 kit, this varries alot in price, is it necessary to have this one, or I can work with the launchpad and boosterpack I have.

Thank you.

1. You could find the datasheet from the website of the motor manufacturer. If the spec. in the datasheet is not enough for you, you have to contact the motor vendor as well.

2. That's fine. Of course, you need a DC power supply for the inverter.

Hi Yanming,

1. I can't find the datasheet. Isn't TI the manufacturer ? Can you point out where is the datasheet. I see many have the same question and yet I couldn't find the datasheet.?

2. I have a 12V/5A power Supply, what is the recommended power supply for running the motor ?

TI is not a motor manufacturer. Please refer to another thread you posted.
