Cannot Select NUCLEO-F302R8 when using 6-Step Algorithm

Hi,

When I select the 6-Step algorithm in MC Workbench > New Project > General Info the NUCLEO-F302R8 does not appear in the list of control boards. Does this mean the F302R8 cannot implement the 6-step algorithm? I thought 6-step was less computationally demanding that FOC (which the F02R8 can do)?

Best regards

Gary

    Hi Gary,

    Yes, we invite you to remove these capacitors on the power boards. The resulting RC time constant is not adapted to the PWM frequencies we are using for the motor control algorithms. 

    Secondly, yes use the MCSDK6.3.0 that supersedes the STSW-STM32100 FW.

    Best regards.

    Hi Gary_Baldy, you will see the NUCLEO-F302R8 present into the list of control board supported by 6-step algorithm only from the MCSDK 6.3.0. Then i invite you to install this new version.

    Best regards.

    Thanks Fabrice - I'll try 6.3.0.

    Appreciate your quick response!
