 Hello and welcome to this video explaining how to get started with the STM32 Nucleot Low Voltage 3 Phase Brushless DC Motor Driver Expansion Board. This board is part of the STM32 Open Development Environment, a fast and affordable way to develop innovative devices and applications with ST components. Funding on how to obtain the board can be found on www.st.com.xnucleo under the reference XNUCLEO-IHM11M1. The board is built around the ST Spin 230, a triple half bridge motor driver with standby current below 80 nanoamps, designed to drive brushless motors in battery powered applications. It has a power supply and motor bridges connector. A potentiometer to adjust the motor speed, and a fault LED to check the alarms reported by the ST Spin 230. The board is equipped with Arduino Uno R3 and ST Morpho connectors, allowing it to be plugged into an STM32 Nucleo Development Board. First, connect a three phase brushless motor to the expansion board, taking care to identify each phase as indicated by the manufacturer. Then connect a low voltage supply, for example a 9 volt battery. Next, connect the STM32 Nucleo Development Board to a PC using a mini USB cable. The board is automatically detected and seen as a disk drive. Visit st.com and search for the keyword XNUCLEO-IHM11M1. Click on the main part number link. Then go to the tools and software section and click on the X-Cube link. Finally, go to the end of the page and click on the download button in the get software section. In the software package, you will find directories with all the required material. Now, let's try a sample application that allows you to drive a brushless motor. The firmware to be installed is called Nucleo Configuration and can be found in the examples folder of the projects directory, as shown here. Select the STM32 Nucleo Development Board you are using and drag and drop the binary file onto the Nucleo disk drive. You can adjust parameters to match your motor characteristics in the mc6stepparam.h file, as shown here. Then recompile your project and upload the binary file as shown before. Once the firmware is downloaded, press the blue button on the Nucleo Development Board and the brushless motor will start to rotate. Press the black button to stop the motor rotation and reset the firmware. The comprehensive set of documentation for the three-phase brushless motor driver expansion board, including a user manual, application notes, quick start guide and data sheet is also available.
