I have apadpted the BLDC Sensorless Motor Library to the ST7FMC1. It's working fine. The library is using Timer B.

But according to the ST7FMC datasheet the ST7MC1 isn't equipped with Timer B. A check with the debugger shows that both Timer A and Timer B exist on the ST7FMC1. How is that possible ? Is Timer B an undocumented feature of The ST7FMC1 ? Is it allowed by ST to use Timer B ? Is Timer B testet during production.

Hi,

the datasheet is right :-] : in ST7MC1 Timer B is not available. Neverthless, in the provided BLDC motor library, Timer A is not used: you could use it in place of Timer B (used as time-base for triggering several events). Regards, Tanio
