STMicroelectronics has unveiled a customizable high-end motor-control module dubbed SPIMD20 that is small enough to mount directly on the motor as well as provide connection via industrial Ethernet. Industrial applications include multi-axis robotics, conveyors, packaging machines, and process automation equipment.
The SPIMD20 can drive brushless 3-phase motors up to 2kW. Developed in conjunction with motion-control specialist Robox, the module combines ST's semiconductor technologies, including 1200V/40A IGBT power switches and the TD352 gate driver. Two STM32 microcontrollers provide a powerful processing engine for motor control and networking functions. A real-time communication interface supporting protocols such as EtherCAT and CANopen DS402 is provided. Basic firmware supporting network connectivity and featuring PWM driving, current loop and speed-loop execution synchronized to the fieldbus is also available.
Key highlights:
- 800V maximum DC supply voltage
- Hardware Safe Torque OFF
- Safe architecture meeting IEC 61800-5-1
- Serial programming interface
- Position feedback via resolver or digital encoder Vibration analysis and thermal sensing
- 2 Mbytes of on-board Flash plus support for removable memory card

A sample photograph of the module mounted on the motor will give a better idea of the mounting arrangement. The direct mounting on the motor may make the controller susceptible to vibrations from the drive chain. How is it taken care of?

The DC motors have low vibration. This module's data sheet gives the tests conducted on this module for vibration and shocks. This seems to be strong for this application.
