MCLV2 Development Board - Setup and Running 'Position Control of PMSM with Quadrature Encoder'

Setting up the hardware

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

Setting up MCLV2 Development Board

• Mount the ATSAME54 Motor Control Plug In Module on U9 header.

  
  
  

• Place the "External Opamp Configuration" Matrix board at J14

  
  
  

• Motor Connections:

  • Phase U - M1 (White coloured wire)

  • Phase V - M2 (Black coloured wire)

  • Phase W - M3 (Red coloured wire)

  
  
  

• Encoder Connections: Connect encoder wires as shown below

  • 1 : +5V (Red coloured wire)

  • 2 : HA (White coloured wire)

  • 3 : HB (Blue coloured wire)

  • 8 : GND (Black coloured wire)

  
  
  

• 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.
