  • [L] Expansion Pins

  • So I've looked into the TC358870XBG and it seems that 2 I2C pins, 1 reset pin, 1 clock pin and an INT pin is needed. One probably could make a circuit that generated the clock instead of the MCU, but a free pin is cheaper than that.  The main issue...
  • Assembly

  • So you've made it this far with me. It's time we assemble the beast and bring Franken pump to life!  This was a very straight forward assembly almost boring perhaps. Surprisingly there were absolutely no major issues with my designs and subsequently...
  • Current Sensor Failure Detection

  • Fresh merge from VESC repository: https://github.com/vedderb/bldc/pull/88 Last week we provided the code to handle 2 dangerous failure modes: Sensor/wiring damageFault to ground If a current sensor is damaged, the FOC will run out of control, with dangerous...
  • [T] Tetrinsic Taic: Solar panel variant

  • I was looking at the nice little solar cell built into my calculator, and thought of something: for the people that would say "I'd (almost) never turn those LCDs on", what if a different surface could still have a use compared to a inert slab of material?...
  • Reproducible? Yep.

  • Enbiggening the ProjectUltimately this project was spurred by the realization that— while one is tough— having two or more children can absolutely tank a healthy person's ability to exercise.  Research throughout the project has confirmed that...
  • First Design Pics

  • 5/3/2018 Log #1 Today I present some pictures of some of the driver modules I have come to refer to as PowerPACks. In essence, PAC means Power Application Controller, and I must say this is an Active-Semi Inc's Trade Mark. I call my modules PowerPACks...
  • First Parts Came In!

  • Summary:My first order of parts came in today. I am starting with the basics for right now. My goal is to get a BLDC motor driver up and running for 1 motor with the same MCU that will be used on the GatorQuad, and then go from there. This will allow...
  • Overview

  • Two weeks before the EMFcamp 2018 I learned on Twitter about Hacky Racer. And because I'm quite into moving objects, I had to join the race. I already have some moving objects, a BobbyCar, a moving armchair, but all of these are rather unpractical to...
  • Scope

  • Motor control is a very broad topic. It touches on traditional electronic design, power design, signals, physical properties, math, embedded systems...I actually can't think of an area it doesn't touch. There are experts in the field who spend their...
