Evaluation Kit for PSoC 4 Motor Control
The CY8CKIT-037 is used for PSoC 4 solution evaluation for motor control application. The kit supports BLDC (BrushLess Direct Current) motors, PMSM (Permanent Magnetic Synchronous Motors) and stepper motors. We provide example projects including single-shunt and sensorless FOC (Field Oriented Control), sensored BLDC control, sensorless BLDC control and stepper motor control example projects.
Thanks for your interest in the CY8CKIT-037 PSoC® 4 Motor Control Evaluation Kit (EVK). This kit enables engineers to evaluate Cypress's PSoC family of devices for motor control applications. Based on this kit, customers can create control solutions for three dominant motor types: permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM), stepper, and brushless DC (BLDC). The Cypress PSoC family of devices integrates abundant internal resources for motor control applications, such as Timer Counter Pulse Width Modulator (TCPWM), SAR-ADC, comparators, opamps, and universal digital blocks (UDBs). In addition, an ARM® Cortex™ core enables high-performance motor control solutions on PSoC devices. Headers provided on the EVK board allow you to connect it to the CY8CKIT-042 PSoC 4 Pioneer Kit board to create a complete motor control system.
