In summary, STMicroelectronics’ powerSPIN platform includes devices suitable for driving DC motors, stepper motors and brushless DC motors, along with a comprehensive support package including evaluation boards, PC software and detailed application notes. ST’s family of monolithic motor drivers form the heart of an open, scalable solution for a wide range of motion control applications. The devices are supported by an evaluation environment, called practiSPIN, which comprises boards and a software tool that provides an interface between a PC and the motor driver. This system also performs power dissipation and thermal analysis simulation. For more information, please visit www.st.com/PowerSpin for all the supporting tools for the PowerSpin platform.
