Know Issues
- In pmsm_foc_encoder_pic32_mk projects, overcurrent fault occurs at higher speeds in reverse direction with field weakening mode enabled.
- Isolated EDBG Card
- If programming failure occurs with message "java.lang.RuntimeException:RDDI_DAP_OPERATION_FAILED", then reset the Isolated EDBG Card's configuration by Go to File -> Project Properties -> EDBG -> Reset.
- Programming or debugging PIC32CM, SAM C/D2x or SAM D/E5x MCU, using Isolated EDBG Card (board revision #02-10824-R1) on dsPICDEM™ MCHV-3 High Voltage Development Board may inhibit MCU from executing instructions if the MCU is reset by pressing on board 'Reset' switch or power cycling the board. Refer to the Isolated EDBG Debugger Product Change Notice for details of hardware modification needed to resolve this issue.
- pmsm_foc_encoder_<device_family> applications running on dsPICDEM MCHV-3
requires increasing bandwidth of the quadrature encoder signal filter to
maintain signal integrity of quadrature sensor signals at higher motor
speeds. Without these modifications, motor operation may fail at higher
speeds.

Know Issues
- ATSAME54 Motor Control Plugin Module based demos may see noise coupling on
the ADC channels resulting in motor instability/stall.
- This issue can be resolved by ensuring that R1 (0 ohm) resistor is populated.
- Isolated EDBG Card
- If programming failure occurs with message "java.lang.RuntimeException:RDDI_DAP_OPERATION_FAILED", then reset the Isolated EDBG Card's configuration by Go to File -> Project Properties -> EDBG -> Reset.
- Programming or debugging PIC32CM, SAM C/D2x or SAM D/E5x MCU, using Isolated EDBG Card (board revision #02-10824-R1) on dsPICDEM™ MCHV-3 High Voltage Development Board may inhibit MCU from executing instructions if the MCU is reset by pressing on board 'Reset' switch or power cycling the board.

- Reduce the capacitance value of C25, C26 and C27 from 100pF to 10pF 50V NPO 0805
- pmsm_foc_rolo_1shunt may experience false over-current faults during alternate motor start command when operated in "TORQUE_MODE". Workaround - Reset the MCU before re-starting the motor in "TORQUE_MODE".
- For any demos running on ATSAMC21 Motor Control PIM, if any failures are observed while trying to use X2CScope, these failures may occur due to shortage of CPU computation bandwidth. In such cases, enable "RAM_EXECUTE" mode which speeds up execution by executing certain functions from RAM memory instead of Flash memory.

Know Issues
- Programming or debugging SAM C/D2x or SAM D/E5x MCU, using Isolated EDBG Card (board revision #02-10824-R1) on dsPICDEM™ MCHV-3 High Voltage Development Board may inhibit MCU from executing instructions if the MCU is reset by pressing on board 'Reset' switch or power cycling the board. Refer to the Isolated EDBG Debugger Product Change Notice for details of hardware modification needed to resolve this issue.

Know Issues
- MPLAB X IDE v5.15 fails to program ATSAME70 Motor Control Plugin Module on
dsPICDEM™ MCHV-3High Voltage Development Board. In order to resolve this
issue, implement the following change in dap_cortex-m7.py, located at
C:\Program Files
(x86)\Microchip\MPLABX\v5.15\packs\Microchip\SAME70_DFP\3.0.10\scripts\
- Goto line # 197, replace <span style="color:red; font-family:courier" >dap.Connect(True, 8000000L)</span> with <span style="color:green; font-family:courier">dap.Connect(True, 2000000L)</span>
