4.4 V to 30 V: 15 A: High Performance Brushless DC Drone Propeller Controller Reference Design

Description

The TIDA-00643 reference design is a 4.4 to 30 V brushless DC motor controller for high power drones: quadcopter: propeller: fan: and pump applications. It uses the Texas Instrument’s DRV8305 brushless DC motor gate driver: CSD17573Q5B 30V NexFET power MOSFETs: TPD4E05U06 TVS protection IC: C2000 motor control MCU: and LMR16006 3.3 V buck converter. It utilizes InstaSPINTM-FOC for sensorless field oriented motor control and commands the motor speed through an external reference signal from a central controller. This design is focused on demonstrating a highly efficient and high power BLDC motor system.
