Do X-CUBE-MCSDK will support AC induction motors?

Hello,

For the moment, X-CUBE-MCSDK only support PMSMs and BLDC motors.

However, AC inductions motors are not supported yet, that's a shame because this kind of motor is still very present in the majority of industrial applications.

Do support of these motors are planned in a next version of X-CUBE-MCSDK?

Best regards, Damien

Hello,

Adding AC induction motor is part of our roadmap, but will not be added at short term. The development team is now more focused on new MCU addition.

Thanks and best regards,

Claire.

The question has been moved from the "Motor Control Hardware" section to the "STM32 Motor Control" section (the question is about the STM32 MC SDK).

Dear @Damien Ratazy​ 

There is now in the last SDK version demonstration firmware example projects for ACIM showing how the STM32 MC SDK can be used to drive an asynchronous induction motor (ACIM) in field-oriented control (FOC) using a sensorless state observer algorithm to estimate the electrical and mechanical speed and position of the rotor and the rotor flux, or in V/F open-loop sensorless mode.

Please have a look on our STM32 Motor Control Knowledge database here: https://wiki.st.com/stm32mcu/wiki/STM32MotorControl:SDK_AC_induction_motor .

Best regards
