BLDC Teensy Control

Overview

This project provides embedded code for Teensy microcontrollers to control BLDC motors using Trapezoidal and FOC (Field-Oriented Control) algorithms. It includes PID velocity control and is structured for easy integration with motor feedback systems.

Features

• Trapezoidal Control: Simple, efficient control for basic BLDC operation.
• FOC Control: Smooth and precise field-oriented control.
• PID Velocity Control: Adjustable PID parameters for speed regulation.
• Logging Support: Motor and control data can be logged for analysis.

Requirements

• Teensy microcontroller (compatible with Teensy 3.x or 4.x series)
• Arduino IDE or PlatformIO for building and uploading
• BLDC motor with Hall sensors or encoder for feedback

Installation & Usage

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Ineso1/bldcFOC_teensy.git
   cd bldcFOC_teensy

2. Open the desired folder (Foc or Trap) in Arduino IDE or PlatformIO.

3. Configure your PID parameters and motor setup in the main file.

4. Upload to your Teensy board.

5. Monitor the serial output for velocity and status logs.

Notes

• FOC provides smoother operation and higher efficiency at low and high speeds.
• Trapezoidal control is faster to deploy for simple applications.
• Logging helps tune PID gains and monitor motor behavior in real-time.
