STMicroelectronics STEVAL-PTOOL1V1 Reference Design

STMicroelectronics STEVAL-PTOOL1V1 Reference Design is a compact platform for low-voltage brushless power tools based on STSPIN32F0B Advanced Single Shunt BLDC Controllers. The STSPIN32F0B controllers are a system-in-package (SiP) providing an integrated solution suitable for driving three-phase brushless motors using different driving modes.

The STM STEVAL-PTOOL1V1 Reference Design is tailored for low-voltage power tools driven by 3-phase brushless motors. Supplied from 2S to 6S, the board features an input voltage from 7VDC to 45VDC with an output current of up to 15ARMS.

Features

  • 7VDC to 45VDC input voltage range
  • Recommended for power tools supplied from 2S to 6S
  • Up to 15ARMS output current
