Ciao Alex

The maximum modulation index that pratically is the maximum BUS voltage available for the control depends on Sampling Time, and noise parameters (TNoise, TRise) present in power stage parametes. You can try deceasing these values.

Maybe you can take a look to the example P-NUCLEO-BullRunning that is for a drone propeller motor.

Ciao Alex

The only thing that I can see from these data is that the PI coefficient that you set are very low. You can try to increase the divider so the numerator can have bigger values and better resolution.

Hi Gigi.

Thank you for your suggestions.

I'm able to run a single motor in both the configurations (Sensored and Sensorless) without any problems. But I've some problem with the dual configuration (two motors at the same time). What happens is that, in dual configuration, I'm able to separately drive the motors (one at time), but when I try to get running together the system stop working and the fault status appears.

Do you have any suggestions about how to fix this problem? I think that in order to make them running at the same time I need to change some configuration parameter.

Actually I'm working with a PWM of 45kHz, current loop of 0.5ms and rate 1, three shunt resistances.

Hi Gigi.

I've tried to increase the  execution rate to 2 or 3 PWM period, as you suggested into this old post:

https://my.st.com/public/STe2ecommunities/motordriver_ics/Lists/Motor%20Control%20Firmware%20and%20Software/Flat.aspx?RootFolder=https%3a%2f%2fmy%2est%2ecom%2fpublic%2fSTe2ecommunities%2fmotordriver_ics%2fLists%2fMotor%20Control%20Firmware%20and%20Software%2fFOC%20SDK%203%2e4%20with%20STM32F303CB&FolderCTID=0x01200200770978C69A1141439FE559EB459D758000CE106710FFA6574FB92BFFEFCE2DD930&currentviews=227

With execution rate PWM period higher than 2 (without changing the other parameters) the motors start up together but they don't stabilize, I receive the error ''Speed feedback'' or ''Start-Up Failure''. I get the same message also driving only one motor at time.

Any idea how to fix this? Because it's strange that with execution rate 1 PWM period it works and with 2 it doesn't.

Thank you again for your help.

Alex.

Ciao Gigi.

I am still not able to run the motors in dual configuration.

Can you help me?

Hi Gigi.

I'm able to drive both the motor in dual configuration with hall sensors. If I switch to DUAL sensorless it works only If i run one motor at time.

Do you have any suggestion about that?

Hi Gigi,

In reference to the STM3240G-eval can you please confirm some of the boards that are compatible out of the box with the MP? Thank you.
