XSG AC Motor Control Library

FPGA-based control design for MicroAutoBox, MicroLabBox, and SCALEXIO

The XSG AC Motor Control library is used for high-performance e-drive control with sample rates above 50 kHz by performing custom control algorithms or parts of it on an FPGA.

  • High performance position sensor processing
  • Flexible PWM generation
  • Connection of various position encoders

Application Areas

The XSG AC Motor Control Library is used for high-performance E-drive controls with sampling rates above 50 kHz. It lets you perform custom control algorithms, or parts of them, on a field-programmable gate array (FPGA). The components of the FPGA library (e.g., encoder interfaces and PWM) can be combined freely on various FPGA platforms with different I/O modules and can also be connected to custom design components.

Main Functions

The XSG AC Motor Control Library lets you program directly on the FPGA. This allows for a high-performance processing of various position sensors and, in conjunction with the required XSG Utils Library, the flexible generation of PWM patterns. You can use the FPGA Programming Blockset to position and combine these components as required.
