Overview

Motor Studio is an easy-to-use graphical user interface (GUI) that simplifies the tuning process of our brushless DC (BLDC) motor drivers to reduce device evaluation and product development time. The GUI allows users to quickly spin up their motors and optimize various stages of motor operation to achieve highest motor performance, stable motor startup and minimal noise.

Features
  • Supports multiple motor drivers and automatic device detection
  • Optimization wizards for guided tuning
  • Interactive register map
  • Virtual oscilloscope for real-time variable monitor
  • Closed loop tuning tool
  • Built-in scripting tool
