This TI Design is a 3-Phase Brushless DC Motor Drive designed to operate in 48-V automotive applications. The board is designed to drive motors in the 1-kW range and can handle currents up to 30-A. The design includes analog circuits working in conjunction with a C2000 LaunchPad™ to spin a 3- Phase BLDC motor without the need for position feedback from Hall Effect sensors or quadrature encoder.
