PMSM Sensorless FOC Using MCX A153

FOC-USING-MCXA

Roll over image to zoom in

This FRDM-MCXA153 based solution is a starting point to develop entry-level applications for 3-phase PMSM using a sensorless FOC technique. It integrates advanced libraries for control and math operations (RTCESL), and a graphics tool (MCAT) to fine tune PI controllers, debug, visualize motor quantities and estimate motor electrical parameters for optimal control. This design leverages the motor control subsystem from the MCX A153 MCU.
