Overview

The reference design is a low-cost development and evaluation platform targeted to drive a three-phase Permanent Magnet Synchronous or Brushless DC Drone Propeller motor, which can be controlled via CAN (Controller Area Network). This design is based on the Microchip dsPIC33CDVC256MP506 which is a motor control System in Package (SiP). The SiP integrates a dsPIC33CDVC256MP506 DSC, a MCP8021 three-phase MOSFET gate driver with LDOs and an ATA6563 CAN FD transceiver, all within a single package.
