S32M276SFFRD: Motor Control Application FOC + HALL

[mayankmahajan]

Hi, we are looking for an application similar to the three applications in the software package "Application Example Software" (Rev 1.1, Feb 11, 2025) given on the product page of S32M276SFFRD under "Software."

We have the following requirements:

1. FOC motor control
2. Hall sensor feedback

As per our understanding, the application with FOC doesn't support HALL, and the application with HALL support uses Trapezoidal Control. Kindly help us on how to use these two together.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks and regards,

Mayank Mahajan

Hi,

Thank you so much for your interest in our products and for using our community.

You are correct, I have seen that in our demos we almost always offer the same control techniques:

• FOC supports sensorless and sensored mode (Encoder).
• 6-step commutation supports sensorless and sensored mode (HALL).

In general, you can customize and optimize the SW according to your needs. S32M276SFFRD HW will allow you to perform such change, but not both sensors at the same time.

There is more documentation about position estimation based on Hall sensor in the following thread:

Hope it helps you.

Have a nice day!
