Introduction

The MSPM0Gxxx family of 80MHz Arm®-Cortex® M0+ MCUs can commutate a Hall Sensor embedded 3-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motor with FOC control. The BLDC motor is driven by a three-phase brushless DC (BLDC) MOSFET gate driver or integrated MOSFET motor driver at 12V or 24V nominal DC rails or battery-powered applications. The driver typically integrates three current-sense amplifiers (CSAs) for sensing the three-phase currents of BLDC motors to achieve optimum FOC control.

Figure 1-1 shows a simplified schematic of an MSPM0Gxxx MCU and BLDC motor driver.

This tuning guide provides the steps to tune a 3-phase BLDC motor using an MSPM0Gxxxx MCU. The tuning process is classified into four sections: Hardware Setup, Software Setup, Basic Tuning and Advanced Tuning.

  • Hardware setup: Steps to set up TI-provided hardware or use a custom PCB for the tuning process.
  • Software setup: Steps to set up TI-provided software for spinning and tuning a BLDC motor.
  • Basic tuning: Tuning steps to successfully spin the motor in closed loop.
  • Advanced tuning: Tuning steps to conform to use-case and explore features in the device.
