DRV8312-69M-KIT: C2000 Instaspin FOC - Can F2804X run the same as F2806X?

Part Number: DRV8312-69M-KIT

Hi there! - I have a quick question regarding the Instaspin FOC series MCU's. 

Currently we have the DRV8312-69M-KIT and are using it for some test. We are considering using the DRV8312 to drive a sensorless BLDC motor, but we cant figure out which MCU to use. 

With the Motorware SW there is some examples included which is only available for the F2806x series only - 

My questions is: Is these examples only available for the F2806x due to they are only written for that MCU, or is it only avaliable due to needing some resources that only the F2806x have? 

Idealiy we would like to use the TMS320F28026F, or TMS320F280049C instead.

    We will be supporting the F280049C and future InstaSPIN-enabled devices through Motor Control SDK, which is the successor to Motorware. The release is slated for the end of March 2019. Motorware is not able to support F280049C because of major differences in the ROM between F2802x/F2805x/F2806x devices and the F28004x devices

    How about the f28027F or f28026 ? Does that support the same features for a BLDC motor as the F28069F? - As stated in the original topic, I can see that a lot of the examples are for the F28069F 

    Thanks for previous reply

    Some example labs, such as the dual motor control lab, are only offered on F28069M kits due to the number of IO pins/headers available on the EVM boards. That said, the F2802x family is somewhat limited by it's memory bank size, as well as the number of peripheral modules available on the device. So yes, some are only offered on the F2806x due to restrictions on the F2802x and F2805x devices. The InstaSPIN Lab User's Guide has a breakdown of all of the labs available for each development kit in the document index
