Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CSD88584Q5DC, DRV8320, DRV832X
Hello
We are developing a single axis solar tracker controller, where we are replacing an existing Geared PMDC motor and H Bridge drive with a Geared BLDC motor. The motor will be a 24V / 300W BLDC Motor.
We are not decided on whether or not it should be a motor with hall effect sensors feedback. We are planning on using the DRV8323 + CSD88584Q5DC for this system. Following are the questions we have at this time.
1. The application requires start - speed ramp up - steady speed - speed ramp down - stop cycles up to 20 times a day. Do we need a motor with hall sensors? or can we do with sensor less control.
2. With senseless control - do we have to recalibrate / tune the system if we change motor vendors / ratings / size etc?
