1.  Kit Contents

The Sensorless BLDC Motor Reference Design Kit contains the following items:

Sensorless BLDC Motor Reference Design Board

Brushless DC (BLDC) Motor

Universal AC to 12 V DC Power Adapter

USB Debug Adapter

2 USB Cables

Reference Design Kit Tools & Documentation CD

2.  Kit Overview

This reference design demonstrates sensorless control of a BLDC motor system using the C8051F310. The
reference design provides for both stand-alone demonstration operation and a simple user interface over USB. The
reference design may also be used as a platform for Sensorless BLDC motor code development.

This User's Guide provides a step-by-step guide for getting your system up and running. Refer to the Application
Note “AN208: Sensorless BLDC Reference Design“ for complete documentation of the Sensorless BLDC
Reference Design.
