Thanks vern! Got your point. Any PWM controller IC that can deliver frequency in the range 8 khz to 20 khz will fulfill my requirement. If I get that IC, my problem is solved for PWM channels. Also, I don't wanted to go costlier by using motor controller ICs unless no choice. Minhaj On

If you want to control a BLDC motor, then the PWM frequency should normally be in the range of about 8 KHz to 20 KHz, fixed frequency. The TLC59116 is not for controlling BLDC motors. The important features when selecting the controller are Voltage and Current. Small motors may operate at 12V /

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. Would that be enough or adjustable frequency is a must feature for

All ICs I found, have fixed frequency with variable duty cycle. I think programmable frequency with variable duty cycle is must to drive BLDC motor. Is that right? Can you please suggest one IC. On Wednesday, 18 June 2014 01:25:39 UTC+5:30, jmelson wrote: On Tuesday, June 17, 2014

Mr David, Thank you for the valuable comment. I was looking whether I could make use of the available GPIO pins. If not I will have to go on with your idea of the separate PWM ICs and interface with the processor. I will have to look for more info in the internet. On Friday, 13 June 2014

Thanks TJF. Presently I am using am335x_pru_package library. I will see whether it has example programs regarding accessing ADC pins. On Saturday, 14 June 2014 11:24:41 UTC+5:30, TJF wrote: Find examples on how to configure and access GPIO and ADC pins from the PRUSS in the source code of
