Arduino-FOC | Arduino FOC for BLDC and Stepper motors

Arduino-FOC is a C++ library typically used in Internet of Things (IoT), Arduino applications. Arduino-FOC has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has medium support. You can download it from GitHub.

We live in very exciting times ! BLDC motors are entering the hobby community more and more and many great projects have already emerged leveraging their far superior dynamics and power capabilities. BLDC motors have numerous advantages over regular DC motors but they have one big disadvantage, the complexity of control. Even though it has become relatively easy to design and manufacture PCBs and create our own hardware solutions for driving BLDC motors the proper low-cost solutions are yet to come. One of the reasons for this is the apparent complexity of writing the BLDC driving algorithms, Field oriented control (FOC) being an example of one of the most efficient ones. The solutions that can be found on-line are almost exclusively very specific for certain hardware configuration and the microcontroller architecture used. Additionally, most of the efforts at this moment are still channeled towards the high-power applications of the BLDC motors and proper low-cost and low-power FOC supporting boards are very hard to find today and even may not exist. Therefore this is an attempt to:. NEW RELEASE : SimpleFOClibrary v2.2.1 see release Sensor class init bugfix #121 Voltage/current limit handling bugs #118 Added the new motion control interface to the commander see docs New target setting - possible to set the position, velocity and torque target at once Separated the motion control interface from full motor callback - only motion control and torque control type, enable disable and target setting New MCU support see docs NRF52 series mcus support by @Polyphe esp32 arduino package transfer to v2.0.1+ - helpful PR#149 by samguns Initial support for esp32s2 and esp32s3 - separation of the esp32 mcpwm and led implementation Generic sensor class - to implement a new sensor only implement one function see docs.
