Brushless 3 click

Brushless 3 click carries the DRV10983, a three-phase sensorless motor driver with integrated power MOSFETs. When an external power supply is applied, you can drive a brushless DC motor through the PWM pin, AN pin or I2C interface.

Click library

  • Author : MikroE Team
  • Date : Jan 2020.
  • Type : I2C type

Software Support

We provide a library for the Brushless3 Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.

Package can be downloaded/installed directly form compilers IDE(recommended way), or downloaded from our LibStock, or found on mikroE github account.

Library Description

This library contains API for Brushless3 Click driver.

Standard key functions :

Example key functions :

Examples Description

This click has three-phase sensorless motor driver and with an external power supply it drives a brushless DC motor.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

Initialization driver enable's - I2C, set default parameter value.

void application_init ( void )
{
log_cfg_t log_cfg;
LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
log_info( &logger, "---- Application Init ----" );
// Click initialization.
BRUSHLESS3_MAP_MIKROBUS( cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
brushless3_init( &brushless3, &cfg );
if ( BRUSHLESS3_ERROR == brushless3_default_cfg ( &brushless3 ) )
{
log_error( &logger, " Default configuration." );
for ( ; ; );
}
}

Application Task

This is an example which demonstrates the use of Brushless 3 Click board. Read and display float motor frequency value from the DRV10983 sensorless BLDC motor driver on Brushless 3 click board. Results are being sent to the Usart Terminal where you can track their changes.

void application_task ( void )
{
log_printf( &logger, " acceleration \r\n" );
for ( speed = 100; speed <= BRUSHLESS3_MAX_SPEED; speed += 20 )
{
brushless3_set_speed( &brushless3, speed );
brushless3_get_speed( &brushless3, &velocity );
log_printf( &logger, " Motor frequency: %.2f Hz\r\n", velocity );
Delay_ms ( 100 );
}
log_printf( &logger, "\r\n ---------------------- \r\n" );
log_printf( &logger, " slowing down \r\n" );
for ( speed = BRUSHLESS3_MAX_SPEED; speed >= 50; speed -= 20 )
{
brushless3_set_speed( &brushless3, speed );
brushless3_get_speed( &brushless3, &velocity );
log_printf( &logger, " Motor frequency: %.2f Hz\r\n", velocity );
Delay_ms ( 100 );
}
log_printf( &logger, "-----------------------\r\n" );
Delay_ms ( 1000 );
}

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly form compilers IDE(recommneded) or found on LibStock page or mikroE GitHub accaunt.

Other mikroE Libraries used in the example:

  • MikroSDK.Board
  • MikroSDK.Log
  • Click.Brushless3

Additional notes and informations

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all Mikroelektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.
