Vector control of PMSM using TI's launchpad F28069 and MATLAB embedded coder with incremental build approach

Vector control (field oriented control) is a widely used method to control PMSM as it improves the response of the drive by decoupling torque and flux. However, it is difficult to directly implement the closed-loop algorithm on any hardware platform due to its complexity. This paper proposes an approach to implement the vector control scheme by using the incremental build levels specially designed for TI's Launchpad F28069. In this paper, the closed-loop Field-Oriented Control (FOC) algorithm is implemented to control a three-phase 60W Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) using TI's Launchpad F28069 and MATLAB Embedded Coder. Effectiveness of the scheme is evaluated using simulation and experimental results. Major advantage of this approach is that performance of the drive can be validated at each build level.
