Hardware Overview: FOC Motor Controller
Welcome to the official VDriveMotion Hardware Wiki. This documentation provides comprehensive pinouts, electrical characteristics, wiring schematics, and configuration instructions for the VDriveMotion High-Performance Sensorless FOC (Field Oriented Control) Motor Controller.
The VDriveMotion controller is engineered for applications demanding high torque density, precision dynamics, and space-constrained integration, such as quadrupeds, robotic arms, aerospace actuators, and automated guided vehicles (AGVs).
Key Features
- Sensorless Operation: Tracks rotor position down to 0.0 RPM via pulsating D-axis HFI saliency tracking.
- Integrated Measurement: 3-Phase low-side shunt resistor array with hardware CORDIC and Dynamic Over-Sampling in CCMRAM.
- Compact Thermal Layout: Direct thermal-via coupling to an aluminum heat plate for optimal dissipation up to 60.0A RMS continuous.
- Deterministic Communication: Binary COBS wire protocol with CRC16/CRC8 over native USB CDC and CAN-FD.
- Zero-Install Web Tuning: Full motor identification and dead-time LUT calibration in under 60 seconds via WebSerial.
System Architecture
The block diagram below illustrates the layered system integration topology of the VDriveMotion FOC Motor Controller, including interfaces for host communication, dictionary mapping, real-time motion core, and power stage.
Electrical Specs: 70V / 60A FOC Driver

High-Precision Current Oversampling
The Phasor50 utilizes a hardware-synchronized multi-sample ADC oversampling pipeline to eliminate switching noise and maximize Field-Oriented Control (FOC) torque precision:
- Midpoint Noise Rejection: Current measurements are triggered synchronously at the exact center of each PWM cycle when switching noise is lowest, delivering whisper-quiet operation and vibration-free motion.
- Adaptive Symmetrical Sampling: The controller automatically captures and averages up to 17 samples per PWM half-cycle, dynamically adjusting the sampling window to maintain clean, distortion-free current feedback across all speeds and duty cycles.
- Sub-Milliamp Precision (16x Resolution): Oversampled measurements are accumulated with 16x scaling, preserving ultra-fine current resolution for exceptional low-speed position hold and delicate torque control.

Wiring & Setup
Follow these wiring steps to configure the controller safely for initial power-on. Incorrect polarity or shorted phases can lead to immediate silicon failure.
Phase Connection
Solder or plug the three brushless motor phase wires to the terminals labeled U, V, and W. If using sensorless FOC, the wire order does not matter; direction can be reversed in software during calibration.
Control Bus Connection
Connect your UART/CAN interface wires from your master host (e.g. Raspberry Pi) to the 8-pin Control Port. Ensure that GND on the control port is connected to the master's ground reference to establish a common ground.
Power Connection
Connect your DC supply (12V - 70V) to the power terminals. Double-check polarity. Apply power using a current-limited benchtop power supply (set to 1.0A max limit) for the first boot to prevent damage in case of wiring shorts.
Firmware Flashing
The controller runs a custom STM32-based FOC firmware. Firmware updates can be performed directly from your browser using the web tool, or via a hardware debugger using the Serial Wire Debug (SWD) port for recovery.
.vdfw anti-brick containers. There is no need to install external drivers, Python toolchains, or compilers.
Web-Based Flashing via USB
- Connect the controller to your PC using a USB-C cable.
- Power on the controller via the DC input.
- Open Chrome or Edge and navigate to tool.vdrivemotion.com.
- Click Connect and select the controller's USB COM port.
- Once connected, click the Firmware Update button in the top menu or connection panel.
- Select the firmware version you wish to flash (or upload an authenticated
.vdfwcontainer) and click Flash Firmware. Do not disconnect the power or USB cable during this process.
Advanced: SWD Flashing via ST-Link
For fresh boards or recovery flashing after a bricked bootloader, connect an ST-Link V2 or V3 debugger to the SWD port. Note: only connect GND, SWCLK, and SWDIO if the board is powered via the main battery terminals.
# Erase chip and program the ELF binary
openocd -f interface/stlink.cfg -f target/stm32g4x.cfg \
-c "init" \
-c "reset halt" \
-c "flash write_image erase build/vdrivemotion_firmware.elf" \
-c "verify_image build/vdrivemotion_firmware.elf" \
-c "reset run" \
-c "shutdown"
Advanced: Using STM32CubeProgrammer GUI
- Connect the ST-Link programmer to your PC and the controller's SWD port.
- Power on the controller via the DC input.
- Open STM32CubeProgrammer. Set the interface mode to SWD and click Connect.
- Go to the Erasing & Programming tab. Browse to select your firmware file (
vdrivemotion_firmware.binor.hex). - Check the Verify programming checkbox.
- Click Start Programming. Once complete, click Disconnect and power-cycle the board.
Motor Calibration
Before driving a brushless motor under FOC, you must perform motor identification parameter detection. This configures the internal resistance (R), direct/quadrature inductance (Ld, Lq), and flux linkage (λ) parameters inside the controller.
Step-by-Step Parameter Detection
- Open your browser and navigate to tool.vdrivemotion.com (Chromium-based browser required for WebSerial).
- Click Connect, select the controller's USB COM port, and verify that telemetry readings display in the side dashboard.
- Navigate to the Motor Tuning menu and select the FOC Setup Wizard.
- Enter the approximate current limits (e.g. 15A for estimation) and the number of pole pairs (typically 7 for a standard 14-pole gimbal or outrunner motor).
- Click Run Autonomous Calibration. The controller executes a 2-point stator resistance test (1A and 3A cancelling MOSFET VDS drops), identifies inductances (Ld, Lq), characterizes dead-time compensation LUTs, and tunes current loop gains in under 60 seconds.
- Review the measured parameters. Click Apply and Save Configuration to write these values to the non-volatile Flash memory.
Zero-Speed Saliency Tracking
The controller features fully automated zero-speed saliency tracking using High-Frequency Signal Injection (HFI):
- Active HFI Ripple Cancellation: Dampens phase current ripples in the alpha-beta domain, improving position estimation signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).
- Dual-Pulse Saliency PLL: Automatically tracks the magnetic saliency axis, which repeats twice per electrical cycle.
- Adaptive Observer Bandwidth: The Saliency PLL dynamically adjusts its loop bandwidth and damping to filter out mechanical noise under different speed and load configurations.
- Phase Lead Compensation: Compensates for filter group delays with a smooth, software-faded lead angle transition to eliminate zero-speed jitter.
Host Communication & 16-Bit Parameter Dictionary
The VDriveMotion Phasor50 operates a high-throughput, deterministic Binary Wire Protocol over its native USB Full-Speed Virtual COM Port (CDC Class at 12 Mbps) and primary UART/CAN interfaces. Raw binary packets are framed using Consistent Overhead Byte Stuffing (COBS) and terminate with a 0x00 delimiter byte, guaranteeing unambiguous packet synchronization with zero ASCII/CSV overhead.
Master Frame Architecture
The protocol defines three core structured frame types and three lightweight command packets:
| Type | Frame Name | Direction | Wire Size | Integrity | Function |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
0x01 |
Control Frame | Host → MCU | 13 B (11B raw) | CRC16-CCITT | Real-time setpoints, parameter writes, commands |
0x02 |
Stream Frame | Bidirectional | 508 B (501B raw) | 8-bit Sequence | 36 kHz FOC telemetry (120 × Float32) & 36 kHz audio downlink |
0x03 |
Dict Burst | MCU → Host | 64 B (62B raw) | CRC8 (0x07) | Dynamic dictionary schema discovery & variable naming |
0x20 |
Subscribe HS | Host → MCU | Variable (2..14B) | Stream Watchdog | Channel selection for 36 kHz real-time telemetry (0-6 signals) |
0x23 |
Heartbeat | Host → MCU | 3 B (1B raw) | 4.0s Watchdog | Maintains active high-speed streaming without timeout |
0x24 |
Subscribe Audio | Host → MCU | Variable (2..14B) | Stream Watchdog | Enables host-to-motor 36 kHz acoustic audio streaming |
Binary Frame Visualizers
All structured frames are encoded via COBS to eliminate 0x00 from the payload before wire transmission:
cmd_run_foc, cmd_stop), adjust setpoints (target_iq, target_speed), or write tuning parameters. Decoded and validated via CRC16 before application.cmd_broadcast_dict) to dynamically publish its complete dictionary schema, register names, and memory permissions to the web tool or host SDK without requiring static code generation.Command & Subscription Packets
Compact, single-frame messages for keep-alive monitoring and telemetry stream configuration:
Heartbeat / Keep-Alive Packet
Raw: [0x23] (1 Byte) • Wire: [0x02, 0x23, 0x00] (3 Bytes). Resets the 4.0-second telemetry watchdog timer. Must be sent by the host at least once every 3.0 seconds during high-speed streaming to prevent stream auto-pause.
High-Speed Telemetry Subscribe
Format: [0x20, Count, ID_1_L, ID_1_H, ...]. Subscribes up to 6 real-time channels (e.g. 0x0205 iq_meas, 0x0201 vbus) for 36 kHz packed streaming. Halts streaming when sent with [0x20, 0x00].
Host Downlink Stream Subscribe
Format: [0x24, Count, ID_1_L, ID_1_H, ...]. Configures host-to-MCU sample streaming (e.g. 0x0373 streamed_iq) for 36 kHz motor acoustic playback. Halts playback and resets target values when sent with [0x24, 0x00].
