Resolver Interface Pinout The AMC1210MB-EVM is designed for easy interfacing to resolver applications. Connector J5 is a nine-pin, female-type DSUB connector for connection to a standard resolver. To hold the floating resolver inputs to a predefined common-mode level, a 2.5-V offset is added to the resolver inputs. The...
Stellaris LM3S811 Evaluation Board is a low-cost Stellaris evaluation board that can function as an in-circuit debugger for the LM3S3748 on the AMC1210MB-EVM. The JTAG connector key should face the inside of the board, or the pins should align as described in Table Table 6.
Software The program for evaluating the AMC1210MB-EVM is the AMC1210EVM software. This program uses the NI-VISA™ client to communicate with the hardware through a USB port. The program currently runs only on PCs with the Microsoft Windows XP operating system. Windows Vista and Windows 7 are not supported.
Figure 6. NI-VISA AMC1210MB-EVM Driver Verification Using the AMC1210MB-EVM Evaluation Software The AMC1210MB-EVM evaluation software provides two modes of operation: Resolver Demo and Current Shunt. Each mode of operation provides a separate GUI and features for evaluating the AMC1210. By default, the software launches in Current Shunt Mode.
Figure 8. AMC1210MB-EVM Software Toolbar The AMC1210MB-EVM software includes a feature that saves any collected data from either the Resolver or Current Shunt Data tabs to export collected data to another analysis tool. Figure 9 shows the save data interface.
