Motor Control and Drive Motor Control and Drive Design Solutions www.microchip.com/motorMotor Control and Drive Solutions Microchip s Motor Control and Drive Solutions Electric motors are estimated to consume around 45% of all the electricity in the world today according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). Electric motors are everywherein your washer, dryer, refrigerator, car, fan, pumps, air conditioner, etc.making our lives easier. Hence, it is important that they run as efficiently as possible, consuming less energy. Microchip provides products and solutions (hardware and software) to control different motor types, including brushed DC, stepper, brushless DC, permanent magnet synchronous, AC induction and switched reluctance motors. You can shorten your development cycle by using our free motorBench Development Suite for code generation and tuning of Field Oriented Control (FOC) software. Our scalable motor control development tools facilitate rapid prototyping of low-voltage and high-voltage systems including dual motor control designs. Microchips 8-bit PIC Microcontrollers (MCUs), dsPIC Digital Signal Controllers (DSCs) and 32-bit PIC32MK and SAM MCU (Arm Cortex -M) series devices contain innovative motor control Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) peripherals with complimentary waveform generators and dedicated time bases. The high-performance PIC32MK MCUs, Cortex-M4, Cortex-M7 SAM MCUs and dsPIC33 DSCs feature a DSP engine to achieve real-time execution of math intensive algorithms like FOC and variable speed with constant torque. The PIC32MK and SAM MCUs (Cortex-M4F, Cortex-M7) feature a oating point unit (FPU) for oating point math operations. The dsPIC33CH DSCs offer dual cores for increased performance and enable one core to be dedicated for the time-critical motor control function and a second core for system functions and communication. Microchips MOSFET Gate Driver family supports different type of motors such as, brushed DC motors, three phase brushless motors and stepper motors. The gate drive products are designed to offer robust protection against short circuits, over current and temperature. Our portfolios of op amps, current sense amplifiers and LDOs, together with gate drive products, compliment our MCUs and DSCs and enable you to easily design complete motor control systems, while reducing board space requirements, streamlining the design process and lowering design risk. Designed for low power, Microchips FPGA motor control solution suite targets high-performance motor control applications. Suitable applications include multi-axis servo drives, motion control of multiple motor types in robotic arms and motor control in high-reliability applications like avionics actuator control, electric vehicle traction control and medical devices. The FPGA motor control suite sup- ports BLDC (sensorless, hall, encoder, resolver support), stepper (micro-stepping with 2048 steps) and induction motors.
