2 Benefits of the C2000 for High-Bandwidth Current Loop

The C2000 family of MCUs possesses the desired computation power to execute complex control algorithms along with the correct combination of peripherals such as ADC, enhanced pulse width modulator (ePWM), enhanced quadrature encoder pulse (eQEP) and enhanced capture (eCAP) to interface with various components of the digital motor control (DMC) hardware. These peripherals have necessary hooks to provide flexible PWM protection, such as trip zones for PWMs and comparators.

Both F2837x and F28004x MCUs contain additional hardware features such as the following:

  • Higher CPU and control law accelerator (CLA) clock frequency
  • Parallel processing floating point core (CLA) augmenting the main CPU
  • Trigonometric Math Unit (TMU) to support high speed, precision trigonometric and math functions
  • Four high speed precision 12bit and 16bit ADCs on F2837x, or three high speed precision 12-bit ADCs on F28004x.
  • Configurable Logic Blocks (CLB) - using PM library from TI, a range of absolute encoders can be interfaced

Together, these features provide enough hardware support to increase computational bandwidth per CPU core compared to its predecessors and offer superior real-time control performance. In addition, the C2000 ecosystem of software (libraries and application software) and hardware (LAUNCHXL-F28379D, LAUNCHXL-F280049C, BOOSTXL-3PhGaNInv) help to reduce the time and effort needed to develop a high-end digital motor control solution.
