Description

The Softec motor control starter kit for ST7MC

(ST ordering code: ST7MC-KIT/BLDC) is an

integrated system designed to provide you with a

complete, ready-to-use motor control application

for the ST7MC family of microcontrollers. It allows

real-time control of three-phase brushless DC and

AC motors in all control topologies from a PC-

based GUI, or in standalone operation.

The control panel software provides an easy-to-

use interface to configure, start and run the motor,

modify parameters and evaluate ST7FMC motor

control features, then generate header files for

your own motor control application.

The kit also comes with the STXF-INDART/USB

in-circuit debugger/programmer and STVD7

integrated development environment that allow

you to take advantage of the ST7FMC’s on-chip

resources for in-circuit programming and in-circuit

debugging.

starter kit, please refer to www.st.com/mcu, or the

Softec internet site www.softecmicro.com.

debuggers/programmers, please refer to the
