Arduino SimpleFOClibrary

Library Compile License: MIT arduino-library-badge

This Arduino library implements Field Oriented Control (FOC) algorithm for BLDC and Stepper motors. FOC algorithm produces incomparably smooth operation and high degree of torque, velocity and position control. The library is intended both for:

  • Beginners searching for a simple and user-friendly way to learn how to control BLDC and Stepper motors
  • Advanced users ready to dig deeper into the FOC algorithm and optimize the code for their particular application/hardware.

Features

  • Arduino compatible:
    • Arduino library code
    • Arduino Library Manager integration
  • Open-Source: Full code and documentation available on github
  • Easy to setup and configure:
  • Modular:
  • Plug & play: Arduino SimpleFOCShield
