Deploying Motor Control Algorithms to a TI C2000 Dual-Core Microcontroller

Using newer power semiconductors such as SiC and GaN is allowing the increase of sample rates for motor control applications. Implementing motor control algorithms on a multicore microcontroller or system-on-a-chip (SoC) processor may require an understanding of execution timing and delays due to peripherals, sensors, and device drivers. Simulation can help provide insight into how algorithms will execute and ensure proper timing is achieved.
In this session, you will see how to use Simulink^® and Model-Based Design to:

• Model and simulate sensorless field-oriented control (FOC) using Motor Control Blockset™ and SoC Blockset™
• Model the effects of device drivers and peripherals on implementation
• Partition control algorithms for multicore execution
• Schedule FOC algorithm execution between partitions
• Generate code from the Simulink model to execute on the separate cores of the TI C2000™ dual-core microcontroller
• Perform on-device profiling with streaming task execution and CPU utilization information
