MCT8316A: Recommended MCU for interface MCT8316

Part Number: MCT8316A
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430FR2355, MSP430FR2433, MSP430FR2311

Hi Team

 I want to control four MCT8316 (or MCF8316) at the same time for drone propeller ESC systems.
So, is there a recommended MCU as an interface MCU, in TI's solution?

I think the MSP430FR2355 on the evaluation board is good,
but if you have any other recommendations, please let me know.

  • Hi Kenji,

    You should be able to use any MCU with SPI/I2C capability and GPIOs needed to support external pin functions such as BRAKE/DIR/nFAULT, or a timer bank module to monitor FG. The MSP430FR2355 is a good start, but you could use a smaller MSP430 device such as MSP430FR2433 or MSP430FR2311.

    Thanks,
    Aaron
