Software Support

We provide a library for the Brushless16 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 from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Library Description

This library contains API for Brushless16 Click driver.

Standard key functions :

Example key functions :

Example Description

This example showcases ability to enable and disable motor output,

and check the status pins.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

Initializon of UART module for log and pins for motor control.

void application_init ( void )
{
log_cfg_t log_cfg;
brushless16_cfg_t brushless16_cfg;
// Logger initialization.
LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
log_cfg.level = LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG;
log_cfg.baud = 115200;
log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
log_info( &logger, " Application Init " );
// Click initialization.
brushless16_cfg_setup( &brushless16_cfg );
BRUSHLESS16_MAP_MIKROBUS( brushless16_cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
if ( brushless16_init( &brushless16, &brushless16_cfg ) == DIGITAL_OUT_UNSUPPORTED_PIN )
{
log_error( &logger, " Application Init Error. " );
log_info( &logger, " Please, run program again... " );
for ( ; ; );
}
Delay_ms( 500 );
log_info( &logger, " Application Task " );
}

Application Task

Checks state of information pins every ms, and stop and start motor

output every second.

void application_task ( void )
{
static uint16_t timer = 5000;
static uint8_t state = 1;
if ( brushless16_get_rd( &brushless16 ) )
{
log_info( &logger, " Motor Lock" );
Delay_ms( 500 );
}
if ( brushless16_get_fg( &brushless16 ) )
{
log_info( &logger, " FG" );
Delay_ms( 500 );
}
if ( !( timer-- ) )
{
timer = 5000;
if ( state )
{
log_info( &logger, " Motor stop" );
}
else
{
log_info( &logger, " Motor rotating" );
}
brushless16_set_en( &brushless16, state );
state = !state;
}
Delay_ms( 1 );
}

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Other Mikroe Libraries used in the example:

  • MikroSDK.Board
  • MikroSDK.Log
  • Click.Brushless16

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. UART terminal is available in all MikroElektronika compilers.
