STMicroelectronics STSPIN32F0 system in package for motor control

Click2Contact

STMicroelectronics is accelerating Industry 4.0 with a powerful single-package device for intelligent motor control.

The STSPIN32F0 system in package combines the power and flexibility of a microcontroller-based drive with ease of use and space efficiency. Target applications include smart manufacturing equipment, power tools and cooling fans, as well as emerging high-tech product categories such as drones, small robots and home appliances containing high-efficiency motors, such as high-performance portable vacuum cleaners or air purifiers. 

The product combines a microcontroller and an analog IC in a tiny 7 x 7 mm QFN package, delivering the flexibility and power of a microcontroller-based motor drive with the convenience, simplicity and space efficiency of a single IC. It is equally suitable for developers with existing investment in motor control IP or those seeking an off-the-shelf motor control algorithm.

The system is said to simplify design challenges by leveraging the extensive STM32 development ecosystem, with software tools, firmware libraries and middleware available on top of motion-control algorithms such as field-oriented control (FOC) and six-step control to streamline firmware development.
