If you want to control BLDC motor, why not use C2000 controller. It is low cost and specifically designed for this purpose. http://www.ti.com/lsds/ti/microcontroller/32-bit_c2000/c28x_piccolo/overview .page http://www.ti.com/lsds/ti/apps/motor/applications.page Regards, John > > > > On Wednesday, 18 June 2014 01:25:39 UTC+5:30, jmelson wrote: >> >> >> On Tuesday, June 17, 2014 5:14:00 AM UTC-5, khajam...@gmail.com wrote: >>> Hi jmelson ! >>> I am making my own cape. >>> I have found one PWM controller (TLC59116) from TI >>> http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/tlc59116.pdf >>> but it says individual channels are adjustable but with a fixed frequency >>> of 97 khz.
