Getting started with the EVSPIN32G4-DUAL
Introduction
The EVSPIN32G4-DUAL is a dual-motor demonstration board based on STSPIN32G4 and STDRIVE101.
The STSPIN32G4 is a system in package integrating in a 9x9 mm VFQFPN package, a triple high-performance half bridge gate
driver with a rich set of programmable features, and a mixed signal STM32G431 microcontroller. The STDRIVE101 is a triple
half-bridge gate driver in a compact 4x4 VFQFPN package featuring 600 mA current capability and embedded protections.
The two power stages based on STL110N10F7 power MOSFETs can simultaneously operate up to 10 A
output current and
RMS
74 V supply voltage, providing dedicated sensing for temperature and bus voltage, drain-source voltage monitoring of power
MOSFETs and overcurrent protection.
The board allows sensor-less operation with single-shunt current sensing, taking advantage of operational amplifiers in the
STSPIN32G4, as well as sensor-based control algorithms thanks to dedicated inputs for each motor, including Hall sensors,
incremental encoders and absolute encoders, via SSI communication interface.
The integrated voltage regulators generate the gate driver and control logic supplies directly from the motor supplies, without
further circuitry required.
The predisposition for CAN bus enables the EVSPIN32G4-DUAL to easily connect with master or slave modules, and build
complex motion control systems.
