Motor Control Application Algorithm and Application Software
To support the development of motor applications, we provide motor control libraries and examples for Field-Oriented Control (FOC), windmilling, DC-link compensation, field weakening and many other control algorithms.
Motor Control Library
The Motor Control Library contains FOC function blocks that are optimized for the dsPIC33 families of DSCs. The library functions are designed to be used within any application framework, providing an efficient and flexible solution for implementing a motor control application.
