Power supply
The EVAL6480H-DISC and EVAL6482H-DISC boards are designed to be powered via:
Connector J1: power of the power stage and motor controller.
USB connector J5: power of the microcontroller and the logic control.
The USB cable supplies the digital part through a dedicated LDO (U1) providing 3.3 V.
The VS supply (J1) must be set according to the voltage required by the user motor.
Note:
Both the supply sources (USB connector and J1 connector) must be present to make
the board operative.

Device configuration
Device configuration
This section offers an overview of the basic configuration steps which are required to make
the demonstration board operative.
Warning:
4.1
Important - the device configuration is mandatory. The
default configuration is not operative.
Before changing the device configuration verify that the
device is in high impedance status (power stage is disabled).
Gate drivers
The system allows controlling a wide range of motors - thanks to a large driver's settings
choice.
For details please refer to the AN4354: “L648x devices: gate drivers setup” - application
note available on www.st.com.
The board includes 2 STL30N10F7 - half bridge N-channel MOSFETs. These MOSFETs
presents low RDSon adding high switching performance. Few several settings could by
applied depending on choice of supply voltage motors, EMI tolerance vs. speed of the
communication.
We propose two configurations according to the user choice:
Performance: low power dissipation vs. fast commutation - high electromagnetic
interference.
Recommended: medium power dissipation, commutation and electromagnetic
interference.

Voltage mode driving (EVAL6480H-DISC)
The configuration parameters of the voltage mode driving can be obtained through the
BEMF compensation tool embedded into the SPIN family software.
A wrong setup of these parameters could cause several issues, in particular:
The phase current decreases with the speed and the motor is stall.
The wrong voltage is applied to the motor and the system is very noisy.
The phase current reaches the overcurrent limit.
The BEMF compensation form uses the application parameters as inputs in order to
evaluate the proper device setup.
The required inputs are:
Supply voltage.
Target phase current (r.m.s. value) at different motion conditions (acceleration,
deceleration, constant speed and holding).
Target operating speed (maximum speed).
Motor characteristics.
The motor characteristics are: the electrical constant (Ke), phase inductance and
resistance. The inductance and the resistance of the phase are given in the motor
datasheet. The Ke is rarely given in the specification and must be measured.
In the help section of the SPIN family software, a step by step procedure is explained. The
same procedure can also be found in the application note AN4144: “Voltage mode control
operation and parameter optimization” on www.st.com.
Click on the “evaluate” button to get the suggested setup for the voltage mode driving. Then
click on the “write” button to copy the data into the registers of the device.

Overcurrent protection
The overcurrent protection monitors the drain-source voltage drop of all the external Power
MOSFETs and disables the power stage when the programmed threshold is reached.
Warning:
The overcurrent protection can be disabled setting the flag
“Over-current- shutdown”.
However it is not recommended to disable this protection.
The stall detection threshold should be just above the operating peak current of the
application. During the preliminary stages of evaluation, it can be set to the maximum value.

Stall detection (EVAL6480H-DISC)
The L6480 device also includes a sensorless stall detection system. This feature allows the
device to detect the stall condition of the motor measuring the increase of the phase current
caused by the sudden cancellation of the back electromotive force.
The stall detection threshold must be set above the nominal peak current.

Using the EVAL6480H-DISC or EVAL6482H-DISC with the
firmware for the GUI (FWGUI)
By default the discovery board is loaded with the FWGUI. This firmware offers the capability
to connect the board with a GUI: the SPIN family evaluation tool. This GUI provides direct
access to all device registers and allows sending application commands.
Both the FWGUI and the GUI can be downloaded on the “Design Resources” page of the
board.
The FWGUI can be downloaded to the discovery board as detailed in Section 5.2 on page
27.
The behavior of the GUI is detailed in the Help.chm file which is provided with the setup file
of the GUI.
5.3.1
Sanity check of the board with the firmware for the GUI (FWGUI)
At the startup of the FWGUI, a sanity check is performed to confirm the discovery board is
working correctly. The status is returned via the board LEDs.
To have a correct execution of the sanity check, please follow the steps below:
1.
Place a jumper on the boot pins (bottom left corner of the board):

At this step:
a)
If a problem is detected, the “ready” LED (green) and the “error” LED (red) will
switch on without blinking. This means that:
–
Either the board ID is no recognized by the FW (bad FW versions used).
–
Or there is a problem with the SPI (no connection between the MCU and the
L648x via the SPI).
–
Or there is no 5 V - 45 V DC power supply.

b)
If no problem is detected, the LEDs will start an infinite two-step loop:
–
In the first step, the four LEDs will switch on one after the other by starting by the
green one and ending by the yellow one.

In the second step, only the LEDs which correspond to the board Id are switched
on all in the same time.
For the L6480 device, there are the green and orange LEDs.
For the L6482 device, there are the green, red, and yellow LEDs.

UM1756
Programming section
The L648x FW library has been tested on the L6480H Discovery board R1 and the L6482H
Discovery R1. The main program contains a commented demonstration sequence which
uses all the library supported features. This sequence is interactive and to proceed to the
end some user action is necessary.
For the “GoUntil” feature demonstration, when the LED SPARE is blinking for the first time,
the user shall close the SW MOTOR jumper J8. This triggers a switch turn-on event at the
L648x SW pin.
For the “ReleaseSW” feature demonstration, when the LED SPARE is blinking again, the
user shall open the SW MOTOR jumper J8. This triggers a L648x SW pin release.
At the end of the demonstration sequence, the GPIO connected to the LEFT and RIGHT
buttons are configured to trigger interrupts on the microcontroller:
On a LEFT button press, the microcontroller starts the motor at quarter of max. speed if it is
stopped, or doubles the motor speed if it is already running.
On a LEFT button press, the microcontroller disables the power bridges after a smooth stop
if the motor is running at minimum speed, or halves the motor speed if the motor is running
above minimum speed.
Even if the “Daisy Chain” mode is supported in the L648x FW library, the board HW does not
allow it. Please contact ST support if you want more information on “Daisy Chain” mode
testing or implementation.
The L648x FW library consists of the following files:

58. Buttons interrupt configuration
5.4.4
a)
Button_A
–
Starts the motor at quarter of max. speed if it is stopped | Run (DIR, SPD).
–
Doubles the motor speed if it is already running | Run (DIR, SPD).
b)
Button_B
–
Disables the power bridges after a smooth stop if the motor is running at minimum
speed | SoftHiZ.
–
Halves the motor speed if the motor is running above minimum speed | Run
(DIR, SPD).
Create a project using the FW library package
Using your preferred IDE, create a new project.
In project options, properties or settings:
Select for the device, the ST STM32F105xB.
Use the CMSIS library.
Edit the preprocessor defined symbols and add:
STM32F10X_CL
USE_STDPERIPH_DRIVER
ST_CSPIN_6480H_DISCOVERY
The flag ST_CSPIN_6480H_DISCOVERY is used for both L6480 and L6482 chips. It is
used to distinguish boards (i.e. the DISC board from the PCC009V2 board).

Edit the preprocessor including directories and add:
$PROJ_DIR$\.…\…\…\…\…\…\stm32f10x\CMSIS\CM3\DeviceSupport\ST\STM32F10x
$PROJ_DIR$\…\…\…\…\…\…\stm32f10x\STM32F10x_StdPeriph_Driver\inc
$PROJ_DIR$\…\…\…\…\…\cspin\inc
Edit the “Linker” configuration file:
- $PROJ_DIR$\config\stm32f10x_flash.icf
Where $PROJ_DIR$ is a variable containing the path to the project directory.
Add the required library source files:
startup_stm32f10x_cl.s
system_stm32f10x.c
misc.c
stm32f10x_exti.c
stm32f10x_flash.c
stm32f10x_gpio.c
stm32f10x_rcc.c
stm32f10x_spi.c
stm32f10x_tim.c
For the debugger, for example, select the ST-LINK and configure it to run to main, to verify
download, to use the Flash loader and to override the “default.board” file with the
“FlashSTM32F105xB.board”.
