Overview

The Enclustra Universal Drive Controller IP Core is not only a motor controller for DC, brushless and stepper motors, it’s a full motion control solution featuring position control and a trajectory planner. Further, 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 motor control needs of future projects will significantly reduce time to market as well as the overall system cost.

 

Highlights

  • Evaluation Kit available
  • Support for DC motors, Brushless motors and stepper motors/li>
  • Support for encoderss
  • Field oriented control (FOC) for BLDC motors
  • Completely autonomous error handling
  • Optimized for lowest total
    solution cost
  • Support for ADC-sharing between different devices
