S T7M C-KIT/ BLDC
Softec's Complete Motor Control Starter Kit for ST7MC
DATA BRIEF
The Softec Motor Control Starter Kit for ST7MC (ST ordering code: ST7MC-KIT/BLDC) is an integrated system designed to provide you with a complete, ready-to-use motor control application for the ST7MC family of microcontrollers. It allows real-time control of Three-Phase Brushless DC and AC Motors in all control topologies from a PC-based GUI, or in standalone operation. The Control Panel software provides an easy-touse interface to configure, start and run the motor, modify parameters and evaluate ST7FMC motor control features, then generate header files for your own motor control application. The kit also comes with the STXF-INDART/USB in-circuit debugger/programmer and STVD7 integrated development environment that allow you to take advantage of the ST7FMC's on-chip resources for in-circuit programming and in-circuit debugging.

Starter Kit Architecture
Motor Control evaluation board application board with ST7FMC, built-in power stage and optoisolation board, is designed to directly drive AC and DC motors. It also includes USART/LIN, EEPROM, potentiometers, sensor inputs for your application. Brushless DC motor the included 24V DC motor is ready for direct connection to the Motor Control evaluation board.
Control Panel graphical user interface on your host PC that allows you start up and run the motor in just minutes, then fine tune parameters and output header files for your own application. STXF-INDART/USB in-circuit debugging and incircuit programming tool that provides the hardware interface with the host PC via USB and with your ST7FMC via 10-pin in-circuit communication (ICC) connection.
STVD7 for inDART Integrated development environment for writing, building and debugging your application. Optoisolation board board with two 10-pin ICC connectors (In/Out) provides galvanic isolation between the in-circuit debugging/programming tool and any target board supplied by high voltage. It is included with the Motor Control Starter Kit, or can be ordered separately (ST ordering code: ST7-ICC/OPTOISOL). Induction motor 240V/800W Selni three-phase induction motor for use with the Motor Control Starter Kit using induction motor default values (for evaluation purposes). It is not included with the kit, but can be ordered separately (ST ordering code: ST7MC-MOT/IND).
