evaluation boards. Choose the best ST hardware according to the
motor characteristics.

• The precision of the measurement is not like when using proper

instrumentation.

• In certain cases, Motor Profiler measurements may not be reliable.

Step #7 – Drive parameter tricks 46

• In Drive settings, decrease cut-off frequency of torque and flux regulator down to 2000 rad/s if power
stage → current reading topology is single shunt.
• In Sensing enabling and FW protections, uncheck the sensing options not supported by power stage
and check any “Set intervention threshold to power stage xxx” buttons.
• In Drive settings, initially set default target speed to at least 20% of maximum application speed.
• In additional features, start without any additional method (possible to add them later).
Back Finalizing

Step #7 – Drive parameter tricks 47

• If motor profiler is not used, in Start-up parameters, select the basic profile.
• Set current ramp initial and final values equal to the motor nominal current value / 2 (if load is low at low
speed, otherwise it can be set up to 0.8-1.0 times the nominal current value).
• Set speed ramp final value to approximately 30% of the maximum application speed.
• Depending on the motor inertia, it may be required to increase the speed ramp duration.
• Set minimum start-up output speed to 15% of the maximum application speed (if required, decrease it later).
• Set estimated speed band tolerance lower limit to 93.75%
• Enable the alignment at the beginning of your development (duration 2000 ms, final current ramp value from
0.5 to 1 times the motor nominal current depending on the load)

Step #7 – Digital PFC 49

Advantages of implementing active power-factor-correction (PFC)

using the same microcontroller which is driving the motor with ST FOC
algorithm:

• Performance optimization because the microcontroller knows

information on the load (for instance the power requested by the
motor) and can improve the performance of the PFC

• Cost saving (reduction of components count)

Note. In the library’s current version, the digital PFC FW is available for the
STM32F103 line (STM32F103xC, STM32F103xD, STM32F103xE, STM32F103xF
and STM32F103xG) or for the STM32F303 line (STM32F303xB and
STM32F303xC).

Step #8 – Set up motor parameters manually 61

• Set Max Rated Speed with the maximum motor speed according to the application
specs.
• Set Nominal Current with maximum peak current provided to each of the motor
phases according to the motor specs.
• Set Nominal DC Voltage with value of DC bus provided to the inverter or the rectified
value of AC input.
Back Finalizing

Step #8 – Set up motor parameters manually 62

Pole pair number

• The number of pole pairs is usually provided by the motor supplier,
but in case it’s not or if you’d like to double-check it:
• Connect a DC power supply between two (of the three) motor phases and provide
up to 5% of the expected nominal DC bus voltage. (You may also set current
protection to nominal motor current.)
• Rotate the motor with your hands, you should notice a little resistance, otherwise:
• If you are not able to rotate the motor, decrease the applied voltage.
• If the motor does not generate any resistance, gradually increase the applied voltage.
• The number of rotor stable positions in one mechanical turn represents the number
of pole pairs.

Stator resistance and inductance

• Using the multimeter, measure the DC stator resistance phase-to-
phase (Rs) and divide it by two.
• Connect the DC voltage between two motor phases.
• Connect the oscilloscope voltage and current probes as shown in the
figure.
• Increase the voltage up to the value where the current equals the
nominal value, so the rotor will align with the generated flux.

• Disable the current protection of DC voltage source.
• Unplug one terminal of the voltage source cable without switching it off.
• Plug the voltage source rapidly and monitor on the scope the voltage and
current waveform until you get something like the one shown in the figure.
• The measurement is good if the voltage can be assimilated to a step and the
current increase such as I∞ * (1-e- t *L/R).
• Measure the time required to current waveform to rise up to 63%.
• This time is Ld/Rs constant. Multiply it by Rs and you’ll get the Ld value.

Back EMF constant Ke

• The Back-EMF constant represents the proportionality constant
between the mechanical motor speed and the amplitude of the B-
EMF induced into the motor phases:

VBemf = Ke · ωmec

• To measure Ke, it usually suffices to turn the motor with your hands
(or using a drill or another motor mechanically coupled) and use an
oscilloscope to look for the phase-to-phase induced voltage (VBemf )
