Overview

The Enclustra Universal Drive Controller IP Core enables the easy addition of drive control capabilities to existing or future FPGA designs. There is no need for an extra drive controller chip that would consume precious PCB space and unnecessarily extend the project BOM.
Selecting Enclustra’s Universal Drive Controller IP Core for the drive control needs of future projects will significantly reduce time to market as well as the overall system cost.

 

Highlights

  • Support for DC, BLDC, 2- and 3-phase stepper motors
  • Support for encoders and resolvers
  • Field oriented control (FOC) for BLDC motors
  • Completely autonomous error handling
  • Optimized for lowest total solution cost
  • Support for ADC-sharing between different devices

Benefits

  • Significantly lower CPU load thanks to completely autonomous control loops
  • Single chip solution (fieldbus access, CPU and drive controller on the same chip)
  • Easy integration, lowest solution cost
  • Plenty of parallel processing power, zero jitter
  • Well-defined interfaces for galvanically isolated power stages
  • Great reusability thanks to configurable controller structure
 

Features

  • Up to 8 drives per controller
  • Up to 4 PID controllers per drive (position, velocity, current(s)) at up to 200 kHz control rate
  • Velocity- and acceleration-feed-forward
  • Voltage, current and temperature supervision
  • Separate PWM clock domain for high-resolution PWM
  • Vendor-independent implementation
  • Available with Avalon or AMBA-AXI interface
