DC Motor 16 click

DC Motor 16 Click is a compact add-on board that contains a high-performance single phase reversible DC motor drive with speed control. This board features the ZXBM5210, a fully-featured DC motor drive solution with an average current capability of up to 700mA from Diodes Incorporated. The ZXBM5210 has several modes of operations selected by two GPIO pins, has a wide supply voltage range from 3V to 18V, and low power consumption.

Click library

  • Author : Stefan Ilic
  • Date : Aug 2021.
  • Type : SPI type

Software Support

We provide a library for the DCMotor16 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 DCMotor16 Click driver.

Standard key functions :

Example key functions :

Example Description

This example shows the capabilities of the DC Motor 16 click board.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

Initialization driver init.

void application_init ( void ) {
log_cfg_t log_cfg;
dcmotor16_cfg_t dcmotor16_cfg;
LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
log_info( &logger, " Application Init " );
// Click initialization.
dcmotor16_cfg_setup( &dcmotor16_cfg );
DCMOTOR16_MAP_MIKROBUS( dcmotor16_cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
err_t init_flag = dcmotor16_init( &dcmotor16, &dcmotor16_cfg );
if ( SPI_MASTER_ERROR == init_flag ) {
log_error( &logger, " Application Init Error. " );
log_info( &logger, " Please, run program again... " );
for ( ; ; );
}
log_info( &logger, " Application Task " );
}

Application Task

Start motor example with change in motor direction and speed.

void application_task ( void ) {
uint16_t cnt;
log_printf( &logger, ">> Motor start with direction [FORWARD] <<\r\n" );
for( cnt = 0; cnt <= 0x0100; cnt+= 25 ) {
dcmotor16_ctrl_vref( &dcmotor16, cnt );
Delay_ms( 250 );
}
Delay_ms( 2000 );
log_printf( &logger, ">> Motor stop \r\n" );
dcmotor16_stop( &dcmotor16 );
Delay_ms( 1000 );
log_printf( &logger, ">> Motor start with direction [BACKWARD] <<\r\n" );
for( cnt = 0; cnt <= 0x0100; cnt+= 25 ) {
dcmotor16_ctrl_vref( &dcmotor16, cnt );
Delay_ms( 250 );
}
Delay_ms( 2000 );
log_printf( &logger, ">> Motor stop \r\n" );
dcmotor16_stop( &dcmotor16 );
Delay_ms( 1000 );
}

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.DCMotor16

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.
