TMS320F28027F: Looking for GUI tool for calibrating motor characteristics

Part Number: TMS320F28027F
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CONTROLSUITE, MOTORWARE

Hi! 

Is there any existing GUI tool that I can use to calibrate BLDC's characteristics while I am developing FOC motor control algorithms?

  • Are you using a particular TI example project as a starting point for your project? Some of our examples already have GUIs although if your own development is different enough, they may not be compatible.

    If you're interested in creating your own GUI, we do have the GUI Composer tool: https://dev.ti.com/gc/

  • Hi Whitney,
    First thank you for your reply.
    Well, I will use some TI example project as a starting point later. Currently I'm collecting information about which example I should use. I think a simple getting started project with GUI that I can control/test/calibrate/monitor/... the BLDC motor with FOC would be nice. Any idea about which one I should use?
    Or, if such requirement is too much for a getting started project, could you suggest a more appropriate one?

  • You're using the F28027F, correct? Are you using a particular development kit/board from TI or something custom? There are motor control projects for F28027F in MotorWare and in controlSUITE under the development_kits folder that are good for getting started. Have you looked at those?

  • Yes, I will use F28027F.

    OK, I'll check them out to find one that meet my needs.

    Thanks again for your help!
