Overview
The PolarFire® SoC FPGA Motor Control Kit enables sensor and sensorless FOC for BLDC motors using deterministic FPGA-based control. The solution includes motor-control IP, current sensing, configurable control loops, a web-based GUI, Linux software stack, and reference designs to accelerate evaluation and development. Everything needed to get started—including programming files, application notes, BSPs, drivers, GUI, and motor-control IP—is provided out of the box.
