4 kW BLDC motor driver with DRV8301

Alexander,

Yes, it would be perfect.  In fact, we have a development kit you can use to study the solution -- DRV8301-HC-C2-Kit.

Hi Ryan,

 I see the kit you recommended is spec'd at 82.5A, so I'm not clear on how it can handle 100A as requested?

I also cannot find a schematic or User Guide for this DRV8301-HC-C2-Kit; where can I get one?  The  DRV830x Hardware Development Package  is on the website, but it is a D3 design, not sure how close to the C2-KIT it is.

Hi Leonard

I just give some advise before Ryan is available.

You can install TI controlSUITE http://www.ti.com/tool/controlsuite

Then you can find everything including schematic, DOC, User Guide and etc. at your computer like following folder.

C:\ti\controlSUITE\development_kits\DRV830x-HC-C2-KIT_v104

I think you don't have to worry about 82.5A to 100A, the motor's normal running current will be much less then that value. if turely needed, you can modify the current amplifier gain for a higher sense rating to 100A. Also some software change may be need.

Thanks.

Hi Leonard,

The DRV8301-HC-C2-KIT is rated for 82.5A full scale or +/-41.25A. We do not have a DRV kit that can support 100A. You can find the schematic and hardware design files in controlSUITE. The C2000 Motor Teams software repository. I have also attached it.
