Motor Control Reference Platforms
Renesas Technology Europe developed over the last years several motor control references platforms to address the most advanced requirements like: sensorless control, one shunt current detection, field oriented control. The platforms are suitable to speed-up the development time by providing Software, schematics, Gerber data and specific user’s manuals.

Please contact us for more information on how Renesas MCRP’s can come to your aid during development and evaluation.
