Introduction
The
STEVAL-LVLP01
evaluation board is based on the STDRIVE101 three-phase gate driver and the STL8N10F7 power
MOSFETs.
The
STEVAL-LVLP01
embeds a power stage and circuitry for driving three-phase brushless DC motors. The board can be
interfaced with different control boards based on STM32 microcontrollers through the MC Connector V2, which is a part of motor
control development platform supporting ZeST and HSO Algorithms.
The
STEVAL-LVLP01
can support single-shunt or three-shunt operation. The different connectors for onboard motor positioning
feedback and motor phase sensing network allow implementation of sensor and sensorless algorithms for motion control.

    However, it is possible to change this configuration and use the operational amplifiers present on the STEVAL-LVLP01. The signal of each shunt resistor has a dedicated op-amp, which implements a differential amplifier with a gain of 15. The topology used enables the rejection of the common mode, resulting in a more accurate output signal.
  • Page 11: Comparator For Current Control

    UM3193 Motor phase voltage 2.2.3 Comparator for current control The current control feature is implemented using the ETR pin of the microcontroller: this pin acts directly on the timer driving the gate drivers of the STDRIVE101. The ETR signal is triggered when the value of the current reaches the selected threshold.
  • Page 12: Board Id

    Board ID The board ID provides a voltage level which identifies the STEVAL-LVLP01; this analog voltage is obtained with a resistor divider referred to the VDD, which is 3.3 V typical and it is also the supply of the microcontroller on the control board.
