 And welcome to this video, explaining how to get started with the STM32 Nucleo 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. Information on how to obtain the board can be found on www.st.com.xnucleo. Under the reference, XNucleo IHM07M1. The board is built around the L6230, a DMOS driver for 3-phase brushless DC motors. It has a TSV994 rail-to-rail input output, high merit factor op-amp, a power supply and motor bridges connector, and a potentiometer to adjust the motor speed. The board is equipped with an ST Morpho connector, allowing it to be plugged into an STM32 Nucleo Development Board. First, connect a 3-phase brushless motor to the expansion board, taking care to identify each phase, as indicated by the manufacturer. Then connect the power supply. 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 in search for the keyword XNucleo IHM07M1. Click on the main part number link. Then, go to the Tools and Software section and click on the XCube 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 us to drive a brushless motor. The firmware to be installed is called XCubeSPN7.bin and can be found in the examples folder of the projects directory as shown here. Select the STM32 Nucleo Development Board you're using and drag and drop the binary file onto the Nucleo disk drive. You can adjust parameters to match your motor characteristics in the mc6depparam.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 STM32 Nucleo Development Board and the brushless motor will start to rotate. Press the blue button again and the motor will stop. A 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.
