Introduction
The
STEVAL-ESC002V1
electronic speed controller (ESC) reference design can be used with different kind of drones, from
small racing ones to bigger light drones used for surveying and any 3-phase BLDC application requiring a compact form factor
and high speed rotation performance.
Together with the
STSW-ESC002V1
firmware package, it implements a sensorless voltage mode six-step driving.
The board is based on the
STSPIN32F0A
advanced 3-phase brushless motor controller that embeds an ARM
®
Cortex
®
-M0
processor, voltage regulators, signal conditioning circuitry and gate drivers in a small 7x7 mm2 QFN package.
Power stage is based on the low resistance (2.8 mΩ) and high speed
STL140N6F7
MOSFETs, designed in STripFET™ F7
technology and able to deliver up to 20 A of continuous current.
