Application of MCP8024 BLDC Motor Driver Evaluation Board
The Driver Evaluation Board is used to show the drive capabilities of the MCP8024. The board incorporates the MCP8024 3-Phase BLDC motor gate driver and dsPIC33FJMC204 PIM to actualize a 6-step trapezoidal BLDC motor control. This board is used to evaluate the applications of the MCP8024 in the BLDC motor application. The board can drive a BLDC motor using a single onboard push button to start and stop the moto and one onboard potentiometer to set the motor speed. The MCP8024 is capable of driving a BLDC motor with a supply voltage of up to 28V and a current of 15A. It has a 6-step trapezoidal control algorithm coupled with5V and 12V LDO, high-to-low voltage translators, current sense op-amps, 750 mW buck converters, and Hall-effect inputs.

Installation of the MCP08024
The kit
The MCP8024 TQFP
includes the following:- MCP8024 TQFP BLDC Motor Driver Evaluation Board
- DsPIC33FJ32MC204 Plug-In-Module (MA330017)
- Information sheet
Installation
The board comes fully assembled and tested for driving a BLDC motor. It requires to be powered by an external voltage source that can supply 7V to 28V at the rated current. You also need a motor. There several user-configurable jumpers on the board. The information sheet should be of help in helping you configure them.

What could be a major update on the new motorcycle is the addition of IMU-based electronic rider aids. That would really bring the Hayabusa up to date with the current crop of superbikes and you could expect features such as multiple riding modes, traction control modes, cornering ABS and much more. The New Suzuki Hayabusa is expected to be unveiled by the end of this or perhaps early next year. Suzuki has said they are bringing at least 10 new motorcycles by 2021, with a focus on large capacity motorcycles. With the Katana and V Strom 1050 already out, the next could very well be the mighty Hayabusa.
