NB-IoT/SIM7020E Hat

This provides a NB-IoT module with SIM card and antenna on a Raspberry PI Hat format. NB-IoT requires a mobile phone subscription and allow you to send sensor data real-time.

LoRa+GPS Hat

This is one of my more exiting projects as I add a LoRa transmitter and GPS to a Hat. E22-900M30S support 12km range while the smaller E22900M22S support ca 6km Range. I have received units and PCB so just waiting for a time-slot to work on this Hat. Raspberry PI Hat format 42Mbps SPI backbone…

CAN Adapter

Many of my newer devices have CAN so I wanted a simple USB(CAN adapter. It is nothing special with this project. I used a STM32F105 with USB on one side and CAN on the other. A minimalistic UDB-CAN Adapter just6 to avoid the need to pay a fortune for these. The first rev 1.0 missed…

60V 50A 3-Phase Driver

This is a specialized 3-phase driver that uses DRV8301. It is more narrow than the 4 channel design and not so complicated to build. I did this design before I did the larger 4 channel design so it is several things on this design I improved on the 4 channel design. Temperature sensors are still…

60V 50A Motor Driver

This is an awesome design allowing 60V @50A on 4 separate Half H-bridges. The design is a step up from the 30V/20A design using more powerfully MOSFET’s and adding wiring to support higher currents. It is also a Hat design, meaning I can add Hat’s to extend the controller. The pic above show my specialized motor…

60V 2A Motor Driver

   This is a micro controller using DRV8313 which basically is 3 x Half H-Bridge drivers in a chip supporting 60V and 2-3A out. The design is excellent for a 3-phase driver, DC Motor or solenoids and work perfectly. The initial version had an issue with the 60V DC/DC that needs to be fixed. DRV8313…

28V/2A 3-Phase Driver

This is the smallest of my dedicated 3-phase controllers using DRV10983 and STM32F030F4. The entire controller is the size of a fingertip and will run a 3-phase motor using sinusoidal algorithm. The controller works, but I was not impressed over it so far because it tend to loose control over the motor I use for…

8 x DC Motor Hat

This is the updated 8 x DC Motor Hat w/16 x Sensor IO’s. I have 3 Hat’s that I will order with PCB stencils this time. This Hat was basically made for a robot arm I have build by DC Motors. It’s a bit of fun to see if I can control the arm automated…
