MCSDK 6.4.0 is out!

Dear MCSDK users, MCSDK version 6.4.0 is now available: Download It here. This version of the new Motor Control SDK 6 series (X-CUBE-MCDSK) provides mainly FOC and 6Step improvements, here are the main changes for this version: Motor Control Features...

Board Manager documentation is out !

The documentation of the Board descriptions format is now available on Motor Control Boards Description Wiki page, this documentation is compatible with MCSDK versions from 6.1.2. Board Descriptions are used by the ST motor-control workbench to enabl...

How to write a Motor control post to get a response quickly

In order to have a quick response to your forum posts, the best way to ask the question is:- Give the version of the MCSDK used. - Say if the problem concerns a tool (MC Workbench, Motor Pilot, Motor Profiler, etc...) - Provide picture of tools inter...

Does the mc_api actually do anything?

I'm a complete beginner following the motor control tutorial here:https://wiki.st.com/stm32mcu/wiki/STM32StepByStep:Getting_started_with_Motor_Control#Managing_the_programming_code_partIt tells me that this code will get my motor running. while (1) ...

Back EMF method in ST Motor control Workbench

Iam using STMotor workbench to run the BLDC motor,How to do sensorless method in STEVAL SPIN3201 board?

Unusual high current (almost short-circuit?) on startup with openloop STSPIN32G4

I am using a custom PCB based on the EVSPIN32G4 schematic and STSPIN32G4 and IRF7759 MOSFETs. Since the 10 kW motor that I try to run doesnt spin, even with 30 A current at startup, I wanted to use the board in openloop, so I changed the OPEN_LOOP_FO...

How to get started with STEVAL-SPIN3202 & Sensor-less BLDC motor?

Hi ST and fellow struggling customers:),I am trying to to get running small 24V BLDC sensorless in-runner with STEVAL-SPIN3202 in FOC or 6 STEP .I stuck after endless attempts with downloading various older versions of all the "cubes".I am trying (f...

Resolved! Starting from STM32 example project - How do I add in .ioc?

I am starting a project with an X-NUCLEO-IHM01A1 and an STM32 NUCLEO F411RE board. The example project on the IHM01A1 page called "X-CUBE-SPN1" is an STM32 project, not an STM32IDE one. I'm using the F401 example inside the example project. Is there ...

IS there a FUL version of MotorControl 5.Y.3 (X-CUBE-MCSDK-FUL_5.Y.3)?

After working with FUL_5.Y.2, I need some of the features offered in 5.Y.3.I believe I clicked on the 5.5.3 version when downloading. Is 5.5.3 actually 5.Y.2? Or did I misclick? I did have trouble downloading, as my browser crashed and sent ~12 re...

About the algorithm selection of sensorless PMSM

Hi ST community，I tried to use STM32CubeMX for motor control of sensorless PMSM. I am confused about the Speed Sensing module. There are three modes of sensorless: Observer PLL, Observer Cordic, HFI+Observer, what is the trade-off between them? HFI+O...

Resolved! At motor BRK interrupt handler, TSK_SafetyTask() should be called instead of MC_Scheduler() to immediately execute fault processing?

(Environment)MC_SDK 5.Y.3 + STM32CubeMX 6.3.0 with HAL + IAR EWARM 8.5(Hardware)custom board based on F446RE + custom power board + Low Voltage BLDC motor with Encoder(Control Mode)Speed Control(What I found)In "stm32f4xx_mc_it.c", there is TIMx_BRK_...
