<p>page created, looking for coops</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>[[Category:Articles]]<br /> <br /> = Repository =<br /> https://github.com/cubz/Base48Runner<br /> <br /> = What? =<br /> This is a starter page for hardware project for a DC motor driver (stuff that makes them spin). The final product should be an electronic printed circuit board (PCB) that is possible to make with hobbyist skills and resources.<br /> <br /> = Why? =<br /> # there are 3 pieces of integrated circuit DRV8432DKD and some lonely maxton motors available<br /> # since everything is integrated and packed, should be piece of cake, right? ;)<br /> <br /> = How? =<br /> * read [[http://www.ti.com/product/drv8432 manuals and datasheets]]<br /> * use KiCAD or Eagle for schematics and layout<br /> <br /> == Prerequisities to understand this ==<br /> * understand what is transistor, RCL devices, PWM, H-bridge, DC motor<br /> * why you can&#039;t simply drive your motor directly with a pin of your favourite uC :)<br /> <br /> == Prerequisities to be able to build this ==<br /> * skilled in PCB etching for SMDs<br /> * skilled in surface mount devices soldering<br /> <br /> == Prerequisities to be able to use this ==<br /> * have a controller with enough Input/Output ports (e.g. Launchpads MSP430, AVR, Arduino)<br /> <br /> = Done =<br /> * 16th Feb 2013<br /> ** started a project in CADSoft&#039;s Eagle (5.7.0 Light version)<br /> ** created a library for integrated circuit &quot;DRV8432DKD&quot; according to its datesheet<br /> ** started a schematics according to reference schematic from datasheet<br /> ** placed on GitHub [https://github.com/cubz/Base48Runner]<br /> <br /> = TODO =<br /> * find out how current flow direction can be controlled<br /> * try to layout the current schematics<br /> * replace RCL parts with SMD versions<br /> * make the power stage part of PCB suitable for high currents<br /> * fix many errors in schematics<br /> ** 12V gate driving power sources are annotated wrong<br /> ...<br /> <br /> = Conclusions so far =<br /> <br /> <br /> = Images =<br /> later<br /> &lt;gallery widths=200&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;/gallery&gt;</div>
