10 Motor Control Design Solutions
Motor Control Tuning GUIs
These software plug-in tools included with MPLAB®IDE
assist with the development of motor control
applications:
■
AN901 BLDC Tuning Interface – Provides a
graphical method to configure the motor parameters
associated with the AN901 application.
■
AN908 ACIM Tuning Interface – Provides a
graphical method to adjust the control loop
parameters associated with the AN908 application.
■
Data Monitor and Control Interface (DMCI) –
Provides a graphical method to input and adjust
software motor parameters. Plots can be used to
show a time history of control variables so that
the motor dynamic response can by analyzed. This
tool is useful for tweaking software parameters and
visualizing historical data during debug sessions.
■
Real-Time Data Monitor (RTDM) – Make a change
to a software parameter and see the effect
immediately without stopping the motor. A serial
USB or UART cable supports bi-directional data
transfers between the host PC and the MCU/DSC.
Other Development Tools
Take advantage of Microchip’s world-class development
tools for 8-bit PIC microcontrollers and 16-bit dsPIC
digital signal controllers, including programmers,
emulators, debuggers and additional evaluation
kits. Operating under the free MPLAB Integrated
Development Environment, Microchip’s development
systems are easy to use and help reduce design time.
Software library support that enables motor control
applications is available in Microchip’s C Compiler tool
suites. In addition to peripheral drivers, algorithms
are available for Proportional-Interface-Derivative (PID)
control and digital filtering.
