Pros

Integrated MCU with STM32F031, DC-DC, LDO, and gate driver for BLDC applications.

Price can’t really be compared to other options.

Physical design size of ESC would be very more compact since gate driver is integrated.

Existing design part of WARG, cheaper option

Used in previous ESC design from WARG, might be overkillrated as “overkill” by others

Cons

FET Selection

Main things to keep in consideration are the 20A max continuous current requirement, and any peak/transient current draw requirements from the motor.
