Eval boad for controlling 3-4 BLDC motors

Art Mecina

Hello Guys,

Good day.

Our customer is looking for MCU/DSP/FPGA evl board which can handle 3-4 BLDC motors (14000 encoders) accurately. Does TI have something like this?

Thanks and regards,

Hi Art,

We don't have one in the BLDC team, we focus on one motor at a time.

Thanks,

Matt

Thanks Matt. Any good Evaluation boards you can suggest even if its for a single motor?

Best regards,

Hi Art,

What's the voltage and current targets for the motors?

Thanks,

Matt

Hello Matt,

Its 12/24V-60A targeting for BLDC motors having 14000 encoder counts.

Thanks and regards,

Art

Hello Art,

You are not going to find an evaluation module that can drive that level of power (>1kW) off the shelf. None of our EVMs are designed to plug and play with an encoder.

The best you can do is use an EVM which has lower power and no encoder interface (i.e. https://www.ti.com/tool/BOOSTXL-DRV8323RS) or find a reference design to replicate (i.e. https://www.ti.com/tool/TIDA-01629) which does feature encoder capability.

Thanks,

Matt
