Overview

The MCF8315 has three half-H-bridge integrated MOSFET drivers for sensorless FOC control of a three-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motor for 4.5V-to-35V, 5A peak current drive. The MCx8315 integrates a buck regulator that can support 200mA with programmable regulated supply.

This EVM includes an onboard MSP430 (MSP430FR2355) that is used to interface with the Motor Studio (MOTORSTUDIO) GUI.

Features
  • MOTORSTUDIO GUI available with full configuration and control
  • Sensorless field-oriented control (FOC)
  • 4.5V-to-35V operation with 5A peak current drive
  • 240mΩ (high-side plus low-side) integrated MOSFETs
  • Onboard MSP430 handles connectivity with the PC and GUI
Integrated control BLDC drivers
MCF8315A — 40-V max, 4-A peak, sensorless FOC control three-phase BLDC motor driver MCF8315C — 40V max, 4A peak, sensorless field-oriented control (FOC) three-phase BLDC motor driver MCF8315C-Q1 — Automotive, 40V max, 4A peak, sensorless field-oriented control (FOC) three-phase BLDC motor driver
