MCSDK PI loop anti-windup?

[Joseph.Paul]

I reviewed the code and found anti-windup is not implemented in the loop, is that correct?  Let me know if there is a version with anti-windup implemented, thank you.

Hello Joseph.Paul,

Could you please tell me which version of the MCSDK you are using ? Also, are you evaluating the 6-STEP or the FOC algorithm ?

[Joseph.Paul]

Thank you for the help, it is MCSDK ver 6.4.2 with FOC

Hello Joseph.Paul,

In the MCSDK ver 6.4.2, using FOC algorithms that are not the High Sensitivity Observer, the Anti-Windup is integrated as following.

The output of the integral part of the PID is clamped to maximum_output - Kp_output. This means that the sum of Kp x Error + Ki x Sum(Error) cannot exceed the maximum output. This way, even when the integral term should build up, the total output never stays at its maximum for a long time after the error shrinks.

Thank you, also I’m starting FOC code generation for H5 using MCSDK as noted in previous reply.

Blocks I am configuring in MC Workbench include , STMH563ZI (Nucleo Bd) and IHM07M1 (Power module), and motor. 

 

I noticed the PWM configuration is not for general purpose, it is specifically configured for L6230 in IMH07M1.

But I’d like to configure PWM for general purpose,  such as for the STEVAL-LVLP01 board I have evaluated already, is this possible?

 

Please let me know and thank you for your consideration.

Also, which section of code is assigned to do anti-windup?

 

This is the PI controller from SDK.
