This application note represents an addendum to NXP document DRM148: Sensorless PMSM Field-Oriented Control. It describes the MCU peripherals used in the application, the hardware setup, and the results of useful measurements for two of NXP’s Digital Signal Controllers (DSC): MC56F82748 and MC56F84789. The MC56F82748 is derived from the higher-performance MC56F84789, so the peripherals used in the application will be identical.

)}

Software offered 'As is', support provided on NXP^® Communities only – This code example shows how to use the quad timer (four timers in a package) to capture the time between pulses and store these times into a buffer using the DMA. After 100 such measurements are stored, the process stops. No SW intervention is needed after the process is started, but the sample code does poll for completion of the 100th capture.The target platform is the TWR-MC56F8400 module which features the MC56F84789 devi
