Electronic Drive Development Platform (EDDP) provides all necessary software and hardware components for development and evaluation of motor control applications. While those components (both software and hardware) can also be used separatly this manual describes EDDP usage with default reference hardware platform (EDDP Kit) only.
Hardware components/boards delivered in EDDP Kit are not intended to be used in finished products. All the software and hardware parts of the EDDP are intended for Developers evaluating Motor Control Applications with Xilinx FPGA and/or SoC Devices. |
The following is required in addition to what is supplied in the EDDP Kit:
In order to pass EMC radiatied emission (EN 55011) class B requirements option "Spread Spectrum" must be activated (standard setting). |
Software version that was used in EMC test: (Visible in the GUI main scren) 2017-7-31 (SVN Tag 5745). |
The following is required in addition to what is supplied in the EDDP Kit:

The software consists of the following parts:
The Web UI lets one to operate the motor in one of the following modes:
To access the Web UI, point a web browser to the IP of the Controller Board. The following web site appears:
Motor
The default motor is supplied in the EDDP Kit; see the chapter Reference Motor for details. Use of custom motors is outside the scope of this manual.
A 3-phase motor with an encoder is connected to a TEC0053 board. The TEC0053 board boards consists of a 3-phase power stage to be driven by bipolar PWM signals, current transducers and ADCs to monitor current on 2 (optionally 3) phases and isolating circuitry to provide electrical isolation for the signals on the Control Board Connector.
A TEC0060 board, included in the EDDP Kit, is used as a mechanical and electrical adaptor for the reference motor.
A Control Board connected to the TEC0053 provides the PWM signals for the TEC0053 and the clock signal to the ADC-s; the ADC datastream is read by the Control Board.
TODO: elaborate.

The default Control Board is the Digilent ARTY-Z 7010, which is delivered as part of the EDDP Kit. This manual contains information relevent to the actual use of the ARTY-Z as a Control Board within the EDDP only; all technical data and user guides and manuals for the Controller Board are provided by the controller board manufacturer.
