SF2-MC-STARTER-KIT

SF2-MC-STARTER-KIT is a SmartFusion2 dual-axis motor control starter kit. This kit gives designers a great starting point for evaluating time-saving, proven motor control reference designs. This kit is supplied with hardware and software IP blocks, and a fully integrated solution along with a powerful, easy-to-use GUI that enables users to quickly prototype. The kit also supports various communication interfaces including Ethernet, CAN, RS485, USB, and others. SmartFusion2 SoC FPGAs feature stronger design security than other FPGAs and include differential power analysis (DPA) resistant anti-tamper measures using technology licensed from Cryptography Research Incorporated (CRI). The security architecture was designed with a layered approach in mind, building on top of a foundation of secure hardware.

• Multi-axis deterministic motor control on a single system-on-chip (SoC) FPGA
• Efficient, reliable, and safe drive with product longevity
• A compact solution which saves board space and reduces product size
• Motor performance is tested for speeds exceeding 100,000RPM for sensorless field oriented control
• Latency of ~2µs for FOC loop from ADC measures to PWM generation allows 500kHz switching frequencies
• Design flexibility with modular IP suite
• Has advanced safety features like "Rotor slip and overload detection "and "Overcurrent protection
• SoC integration of system functions to lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
• 12V to 48V DC input voltage and 8A maximum AC current per phase
• 3 HALL sensor inputs with 5V supply provided through the board
