Featured Examples

Field-Oriented Control of PMSM with Quadrature Encoder Using C2000 Processors

Implements the field-oriented control (FOC) technique to control the speed of a three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). The FOC algorithm requires rotor position feedback, which is obtained by a quadrature encoder sensor. For details about FOC, see Field-Oriented Control (FOC) (Motor Control Blockset).

Open Model

Quadrature Encoder Offset Calibration for PMSM Motor Using C2000

Calculates the offset between the d-axis of the rotor and encoder index pulse position as detected by the quadrature encoder sensor. The control algorithm (available in the field-oriented control and parameter estimation examples) uses this offset value to compute an accurate and precise position of the d-axis of rotor. The controller needs this position to implement the field-oriented control (FOC) correctly in the rotor flux reference frame (d-q reference frame), and therefore, run the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) correctly.

Open Model

Open-Loop Control of 3-Phase AC Motors Using C2000 Processors

Uses open-loop control (also known as scalar control or Volts/Hz control) to run a motor. This technique varies the stator voltage and frequency to control the rotor speed without using any feedback from the motor. You can use this technique to check the integrity of the hardware connections. A constant speed application of open-loop control uses a fixed-frequency motor power supply. An adjustable speed application of open-loop control needs a variable-frequency power supply to control the rotor speed. To ensure a constant stator magnetic flux, keep the supply voltage amplitude proportional to its frequency.

Control PMSM Loaded with Dual Motor (Dyno) Using C2000 Processors

Uses field-oriented control (FOC) to control two three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) coupled in a dyno setup. Motor 1 runs in the closed-loop speed control mode. Motor 2 runs in the torque control mode and loads Motor 1 because they are mechanically coupled. You can use this example to test a motor in different load conditions.
