{"title":"SimpleFOCmini Brushless DC Motor Driver Board","handle":"simplefocmini-brushless-dc-motor-driver-board","url":"/products/simplefocmini-brushless-dc-motor-driver-board","description":"This compact DFRobot driver board is made for precise control of brushless DC motors using Field-Oriented Control (FOC). At just 26 x 21.5mm, it is well suited to tight builds where smooth motion, low noise and responsive control matter.SimpleFOCmini supports closed-loop control of motor position, speed and torque, giving developers more control than a conventional ESC, especially at very low speeds. It accepts 3.3V and 5V control signals for use with common microcontroller platforms such as Arduino, ESP32 and Raspberry Pi.The board is fully supported by the SimpleFOC open-source library, with robust algorithms and clear examples for rapid prototyping. DFRobot also provides documentation including a product wiki, schematic, 3D model and an ESP32 self-balancing car project. Supplied as one SimpleFOCmini Brushless DC Motor Driver Board.Features:Precise control at all speeds: Provides robust and smooth motor control across the entire speed range, from a complete standstill to maximum RPM.Low-speed stability: Designed for applications requiring fluid, gradual acceleration or steady rotation at very low speeds.Closed-loop torque control: Supports direct current (torque) control for force-feedback systems.Closed-loop speed control: Maintains constant velocity under varying loads.Closed-loop position control: Enables high-accuracy position control for robotic arms and actuators.Quiet, smooth operation: Uses a sinusoidal wave drive for smooth motor commutation.Reduced noise and vibration: Significantly reduces audible noise and mechanical vibration compared with typical ESC square-wave drive.High-performance commutation: Enables seamless and rapid switching between forward and reverse rotation, even at high speeds.Regenerative braking: Supports efficient and controlled deceleration by recovering kinetic energy.Open-source integration: Fully supported by the SimpleFOC open-source library.Platform support: Provides clear examples for Arduino, ESP32 and Raspberry Pi platforms.Specifications:Input Voltage: 8-30V DCMax Output Current: 2.5A per phaseControl Algorithm: Field-Oriented Control (FOC)Logic Compatibility: 3.3V / 5VDimensions: 26 x 21.5mm (Compact Footprint)Software: Full compatibility with the SimpleFOC open-source libraryProtection: Power reverse polarity protectionIdeal for robotics, camera gimbals and stabilisers, haptics, low-speed automation, and efficient low-noise pump or fan control projects.","vendor":"DFRobot","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":15647,"title":"Default Title","sku":"DF-DRI0058","mpn":"DRI0058","price":14.08,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":776}]}
