We are looking for an engineer who has a passion for motor control to test and review an evaluation kit. We’ll send you the hardware, which you get to keep. We pay for shipping anywhere. You need only to post a review on our website.

Description

TMC9660-3PH-EVKIT is a set of one MCU board, Landungsbruecke, one Eselsbruecke, and one TMC9660-3PH-EVAL driver board. It allows for a quick and simple start within only minutes to make your motor turn, while still providing full access to all registers and full functionality and diagnostics.

The TMC9660-3PH-EVKIT is part of the ADI Trinamic evaluation board system. It is a 70V/10A permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM)/brushless DC (BLDC) evaluation kit that allows evaluation of the TMC9660, which is a highly integrated monolithic motor controller and gate driver IC for three-phase BLDC motors, two-phase bipolar stepper motors, and DC motors.

The TMC9660-3PH-EVAL focuses on the usage of three-phase BLDC motors with the possibility to use ABN encoders or digital Hall sensors as position feedback mechanisms. Additionally, the board allows simultaneous control of a brake chopper and an electromechanical brake through the otherwise unused fourth half-bridge.

What’s in the Kit?

• One MCU board Landungsbruecke (PC interface board), One Eselsbruecke bridge connection board, and One TMC9660-3PH-EVAL driver board.
• One QBL4208-61-04-013 BLDC MOTOR, 3-PH, 24VDC, 4000RPM, 52W

Summary of Features

• Three-phase PMSM/BLDC motors and DC motors up to 10A RMS coil current (20A peak)
• 8V to 70V DC single-supply voltage range
• Field-oriented controller (FOC) in hardware
• Position, velocity, and torque controller in hardware
• Brake chopper and electromechanical brake outputs
• SPI and UART interfaces for communication with a main controller
