Motor Controller

Precision motor control system for BLDC, stepper, or servo motors with closed-loop feedback, used in robotics, CNC machines, and industrial automation.

Category: Industrial IoT

Precision motor control system for BLDC, stepper, or servo motors with closed-loop feedback, used in robotics, CNC machines, and industrial automation.

Key Features

  • FOC (Field Oriented Control)
  • Encoder/Hall sensor feedback
  • PID tuning
  • CAN bus communication (via external CAN controller)
  • Safety interlocks
  • Real-time diagnostics

Firmware Components

  • PWM generation
  • ADC sampling for current sensing
  • FOC algorithm
  • Encoder driver
  • CAN protocol stack (over SPI CAN controller)
  • Safety state machine

Protocols

ble, usb, uart, can (external)

Motor control on Nordic targets typically pairs the Nordic MCU (handling wireless telemetry, configuration, and OTA) with a dedicated motor-driver IC and external CAN/CAN-FD controller over SPI when CAN is required.
