DC Motor 10 click

DC Motor 10 Click is a brushed DC motor driver with the current limiting and current sensing. It is based on the TLE 6208-6 G, an Hex-Half-Bridge / Double Six-Driver IC, optimized for motor driving applications.

Click library

• Author : Jovan Stajkovic
• Date : Jan 2020.
• Type : SPI type

Software Support

We provide a library for the DcMotor10 Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.

Package can be downloaded/installed directly form compilers IDE(recommended way), or downloaded from our LibStock, or found on mikroE github account.

Library Description

‍This library contains API for DcMotor10 Click driver.

Standard key functions :

• Config Object Initialization function.

  ‍void dcmotor10_cfg_setup ( dcmotor10_cfg_t *cfg );

  - Initialization function.

  ‍DCMOTOR10_RETVAL dcmotor10_init ( dcmotor10_t *ctx, dcmotor10_cfg_t *cfg );

Example key functions :

• Function is used to send command.

  ‍void dcmotor10_send_cmd ( dcmotor10_t *ctx, uint16_t wr_data );

  - Function is used to read status.

  ‍uint16_t dcmotor10_read_status ( dcmotor10_t *ctx );

• Function is used to inhibit or uninhibit the device.

  ‍void dcmotor10_inhibit ( dcmotor10_t *ctx, uint8_t state );

  Examples Description

‍ This example is running dc motors on channels 1 through 3.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

‍ Initalizes SPI, click drivers and uninhibites the device.

void application_init ( void )
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;
    dcmotor10_cfg_t cfg;
 
    LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
    log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
    log_info( &logger, "---- Application Init ----" );
 
    //  Click initialization.
 
    dcmotor10_cfg_setup( &cfg );
    DCMOTOR10_MAP_MIKROBUS( cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
    dcmotor10_init( &dcmotor10, &cfg );
    Delay_ms ( 100 );
    
    dcmotor10_inhibit(&dcmotor10, DCMOTOR10_UNINHIBIT );
    dcmotor10_send_cmd( &dcmotor10, DCMOTOR10_RESET_STATUS_REG );
    Delay_ms ( 100 );
}

Application Task

‍ This example demonstrates the use of DC MOTOR 10 click by running dc motors on channels 1 through 3, first all 3 together and then separately.

void application_task ( void )
{
    dcmotor10_send_cmd( &dcmotor10, DCMOTOR10_ENABLE_1 | DCMOTOR10_ENABLE_2 
                      | DCMOTOR10_ENABLE_3 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    dcmotor10_send_cmd( &dcmotor10, DCMOTOR10_ENABLE_1 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    dcmotor10_send_cmd( &dcmotor10, DCMOTOR10_ENABLE_2 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    dcmotor10_send_cmd( &dcmotor10, DCMOTOR10_ENABLE_3 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    dcmotor10_send_cmd( &dcmotor10, DCMOTOR10_RESET_STATUS_REG );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
}  

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly form compilers IDE(recommneded) or found on LibStock page or mikroE GitHub accaunt.

Other mikroE Libraries used in the example:

• MikroSDK.Board
• MikroSDK.Log
• Click.DcMotor10

Additional notes and informations

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all Mikroelektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.
