TIDA-00274: InstaSPIN Technology supported?

Part Number: TIDA-00274
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430G2553, INSTASPIN-BLDC

Hi,

For my project I am planning to control my BLDC motors sensorless. The InstaSPIN technology seems interesting for back-emf sensing, however it is a bit confusing in the TIDA-00274 module.
The list of features states that the MSP430G2553 MCU provides the InstaSPIN technology, however this is not listed in the module's datasheet. In the MSP430G2553 MCU datasheet, InstaSPIN is also not mentioned.

Does the TIDA-00274 module provide InstaSPIN, or specific, does the MSP430G2553 MCU provide InstaSPIN? Or are, for instance, TMS320F280xxx controllers needed?

Thanks,

Jasper

  • my understanding is the software download on the TIDA-00274 includes InstaSPIN-BLDC library / solution that you can reuse.

    InstaSPIN-BLDC was created by the C2000 team, but is typically used on lower end MCUs, especially once InstaSPIN-FOC began to be offered by C2000 (enabled only by on-chip ROM library for certain C2000 MCUs).
