Overview
Description
The MCK-RA8T2 is a development kit designed for easy evaluation of motor control using permanent magnet synchronous motors (brushless DC motors). This kit includes the RA8T2 CPU board (MCB-RA8T2), an inverter board (MCI-LV-1), a permanent magnet synchronous motor, and accessories such as cables and standoffs. Start motor control evaluation with the RA8T2 by using this kit together with the sample code and QE for Motor, both available for download from the website.
Features
- CPU board is equipped with the RA8T2 as the motor control MCU
- Inverter board for 3-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motor (48V/10A rating)
- Onboard debugger for flash programming of RA8T2
- Supports 1-shunt/3-shunt current sensing
- Overcurrent detection
- Supports Renesas Motor Workbench, a motor control development support tool
- Supports Hall sensors, encoders, and inductive position sensors
