We are currently in the implementation phase of the hardware that will be used to control a three-phase open-winding PMSM. The printed circuit board (pcb) is currently being built and we anticipate its arrival in the next few weeks. The microcontroller that has been selected is TMS320F28379D from Texas instruments and the pin mapping for I/Os have been documented and integrated in the design of the pcb. We have a three-phase open-winding PMSM rated at 2HP and has 24 pole pairs. The maximum speed of the PMSM is 3000 rpm. The PMSM will be connected to the medium voltage output terminals on the pcb. An incremental encoder has been fitted to the shaft of the PMSM and is capable of 16,384 counts per revolution in full quadrature mode. We are currently looking for expert help to implement the firmware using the Code Composer Studio from Texas Instruments. The selected firmware will be divided into four primary modules as follows: 1. Mechanical Speed and Angle monitoring module, 2. Sinusoidal PWM Conversion module, 3. The Motor Controller Module, 4. Fault Protection module. The inputs to pcb are: 1. Motor ON/OFF two-position normally open switch, 2. Motor Emergency Stop two-position normally closed switch, 3. Motor Forward/Reverse two-position normally open switch, 4. MCU external reset momentary two-position normally closed switch, 5. Shaft mounted Incremental Encoder with A, B and index signals, 6. Speed Setpoint dial with integrated incremental encoder (A,B signals), 7. Three-phase stator currents, 8. DC Bus voltage, 9. DC input current, The output signals are: 1. SPWM signals to three Mosfet H-bridge modules, 2. Fault signal to halt triggering of all Mosfets to protect against: a. Short-circuits and, b. Over and under voltages at the DC bus. 3. Trigger signal to engage and disengage the pre-charge circuit. The derived signals are: 1. Motor mechanical speed (rad/s and RPM), 2. Motor mechanical angle (rad and degrees), 3. Direct and quadrature axis voltages, 4. Direct and quadrature axis currents, 5. Motor input electrical power. Motor incremental encoder calibration map: Note that the shaft incremental encoder will be calibrated to ensure alignment with the intrinsic angular displacement of the motor. As the offset is expected to be nonlinear, a calibration map will be provided with several breakpoints of actual encoder count (relative to the encoder home position) versus calibrated mechanical angle relative to the intrinsic zero degree position. This should be programmable in the firmware. Firmware in Code Composer Studio: The firmware should consider the above stated and must be testable in a recent version of the Code Composer Studio. The firmware shall have the means to simulate the motor’s incremental encoder ABZ signals to demonstrate speed and angle calculations at speeds up to 3000 rpm. The firmware shall also have the means to calculate the motor speed and angle with the ABZ signals from the motor’s actual incremental encoder. We expect that all signals will be demonstrable using the variable watch feature of the Code Composer Studio. The firmware shall be properly documented with adequate submodules for easy readability. The firmware for the Mechanical Speed and Angle monitoring module shall be developed to consider a minimum speed of 10 rpm and maximum speed of 3000 rpm. If filtering is required for the speed output, it shall be based on the Kalman Filtering algorithm. The Mechanical Speed and Angle monitoring module shall operate at a rate of 20 kHz (operator tuneable). The firmware for the Sinusoidal PWM Conversion module shall be based on algorithm that will be provided by us in MATLAB function format. This module will be composed of a ‘Inverse Parke’ function and a three-phase to SPWM conversion function. Appropriate ePWM modules shall be written based on the outputs from the three-phase to SPWM conversion function. The Sinusoidal PWM Conversion module shall operate at a rate of 20 kHz (operator tuneable). The firmware for the Motor Controller Module is proprietary and only the truncated version of the MATLAB functions will be provided, that is, without the details. However, all the constants and variables used by the functions of the Motor Controller Module will be supplied by us. The Motor Controller Module shall operate at a rate of 200 Hz (operator tuneable). The firmware for the Fault Protection module shall be developed based the requirement provided by us to protect against short-circuits and over and under voltages at the DC bus. It shall also consider the condition required to engage and disengage the pre-charge circuit. The detailed logic will be provided by us based on the required protection. The Fault Protection module shall operate at a rate of 20 kHz (operator tuneable). Fixed price quote Candidates should provide a fixed-price quote based on the outlined scope of work. The firmware must be developed in Code Composer Studio and demonstrate the effectiveness of the implementation using the software’s debugging and variable watch features. The firmware should be well-commented and include proper documentation for each module to ensure readability and maintainability. The implementation should be efficient and reliable, with particular attention to the real-time aspects of controlling the motor and ensuring safe operation.

Technology stack: 1. Teensy 4.0 with the FlexCAN_T4 library 2. Processing 4.1.2 (Java-like) language Task: Fix the corrupted data issue in a bidirectional serial-port (UART) communication. Both Teensy and Processing should receive unshifted data. Envisioned solution: - 2 threads on Teensy: one for Serial Tx in the main loop, another one for Serial Rx in a second loop, e.g. yield(), serialEvent(), or TeensyThread. - synchronization between Teensy and Processing Tx buffers: either hardware (RTS/CTS pins of UART) or software (XON/XOF or a lightweight custom protocol with acknowlendgements) Current use case: Teensy and Processing exchange serial data asynchronously. Teensy constantly sends a burst of data to Processing. This burst of data is received from CAN on interrupts. Processing periodically sends data to Teensy. Issue: Teensy always receives correct data from Processing. However, when a collision between Tx on Teensy and Tx on Processing occurs, the data from Teensy gets shifted, and is received shifted by Processing. If no data is sent from Processing to Teensy, Processing always receives correct data. Example code: I attach a simplified (with no CAN data) Teensy code which recreates the issue. Deliverables: A Teensy code capable of receiving correct Serial data and transmitting correct Serial data via the same port. The incoming Serial data can appear randomly. The transmitted Serial data should be generated and sent out on interrupts.
