6. Motor Control Software

The Drive-on-Chip Design Example motor control software is in C, runs under the Micrium µC/OS-II real-time Operating System on the Nios II processor, and is in two parts.

The BSP is generated from the Qsys system via the .sopcinfo file, which contains a description of the system interconnectivity and module base addresses. The design includes drivers for Nios II peripherals that the Nios II Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) supports.

The application program comprises several. threads handling initialization, status reporting, and communication functions and an(ISR, triggered by the PWM timebase, which covers the real-time aspects of running the motor control FOC algorithm. The design includes header files and basic drivers for motor control peripherals that the Nios II HAL does not directly support.
