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
