View the full DesignDRIVE Story

DesignDRIVE software solutions are part of a platform that is combined with DesignDRIVE Development Kits to make it easy to develop and evaluate solutions for many industrial drive and servo topologies. DesignDRIVE solutions offer support for a wide variety of motor types, sensing technologies, position sensors and communications networks to help developers of industrial drives jumpstart their evaluation and development.  Based on the real-time control architecture of TI C2000™ microcontrollers (MCUs), DesignDRIVE is ideal for the development of industrial inverter drives and servo drives used in automated machinery, robotics, elevators, materials conveyance and other industrial manufacturing applications.

Get started with DesignDRIVE software or watch the DesignDRIVE training series for more information.

Features
  • Fast Current Loop – sub-1 microsecond sensored-FOC (field oriented control) motor control for permanent magnet and AC induction motors
  • Position Manager Solutions on-chip support a variety of position sensors
  • Software drivers for simultaneous current feedback from delta-sigma modulators, fluxgate/Hall, and direct shunt current sampling

To get started with DesignDRIVE software:

  1. If you don’t already have Code Composer Studio ™ installed, you can download it here
  2. Download the latest version of controlSUITE.
  3. Open CCS and go to View>TI Resource Explorer.
  4. Select controlSUITE and browse to the DesignDRIVE folder.
