MCLV2 Development Board

Setting up the hardware

The following table shows the target hardware for the application projects.

Setting up MCLV2 Development Board

• Mount the PIC32MK MCA Motor Control Plug In Module on U9 header.

  

• Place the “External Opamp Configuration” Matrix board at J14.

  

• Motor Connections:
  • Phase U - M1
  • Phase V - M2
  • Phase W - M3

  

• Jumper Settings:
  • JP1 - Curr, JP2 - Curr, JP3 - Curr
  • In order to use RS232 port for X2CScope Communication JP4 - UART, JP5 - UART
  • In order to use USB port for X2CScope Communication JP4 - USB, JP5 - USB

  

• Power the board with a 24V DC supply using J2 or BP1-BP2. For additional safety, it is recommended to use a current limited power supply while testing this software demonstration on a non-default hardware and motor.

  

• Complete Setup
