MC software development kit architecture

Figure 1 shows the system architecture. The Motor Control SDK has a four-layers structure:

•

STM32Fxxx standard peripherals library and CMSIS library

•

Motor Control Library

•

Motor Control Application

•

Demonstration user project

Figure 1. MC software library architecture

From the bottom layer upwards:

The STM32Fxxx standard peripherals library is an independent firmware package that

contains a collection of routines, data structures and macros that cover the features of the

STM32 peripherals. Version 3.5.0 of STM32F10x standard peripheral library is included in

the MC SDK, version 1.0.0 is available for STM32F05xx, STM32F2xx and STM32F4xx,

version 1.0.1 is available for STM32F30x. The STM32Fxxx standard peripherals library is

CMSIS and MISRA-C compliant. Visit www.st.com/stm32 for complete documentation.

The Motor Control Library is a wide collection of classes that describe the functionality of

elements involved in motor control (such as speed sensors, current sensors, algorithms).

Each class has an interface, which is a list of methods applicable to objects of that class.

Figure 2 is a conceptual representation of the library.

Two distributions of the Motor Control Library are available:

•

Web distribution, available free of charge at www.st.com, where the Motor Control

Library is provided as a compiled .lib file.

•

Confidential distribution, available free of charge on demand by contacting your

nearest ST sales office or support team. Source files of classes are provided, with the

exception of ST protected IPs, which are provided as compiled object files. Source files

of protected IPs can also be provided free of charge to ST partners upon request.

Contact your nearest ST office or support team for further information.
