Project Owners: Mena Azab Rayyan Mahmood
Requirements:
Can take 6S voltage
Can handle 50 A continuous
Create block diagram
Show the high-level process of how the motor controller works from receiving a battery voltage to controlling the phases of the motor
Create table for engineering decisions and tradeoffs for the following components:
MCU
We ordered an MCU that was to be used for the 4S ESC that was being designed, can potentially use this chip: https://www.digikey.ca/en/products/detail/stmicroelectronics/STM32L412KBT6/9656219
Gate driver IC
Does it have field-oriented control?
Does it have built in current sense? That would be extremely useful so that we don’t have to waste board space using a current sense amplifier and shunt
Power MOSFETs
Buck converter for MCU
Battery input connection type
PWM connection type
Programming pins connection type
