|
|
|
This directory contains the reference hardware design for
|
|
[PX4 Sapog](https://kb.zubax.com/x/cYAh) - an advanced open source ESC firmware.
|
|
|
|
This specific design is intended as an application note;
|
|
the main knowledge to gather from this design is the pinout of the MCU and its immediate connections.
|
|
The design is implemented in Eagle, version 7 or newer is required.

## Design guidelines
|
|
|
|
1. When choosing the power transistors, keep their dynamic characteristics in mind:
|
|
the switching time must be under 50 nanoseconds.
|
|
Sapog employs somewhat unorthodox methods of state estimation which require a high-speed inverter.
|
|
2. The RC filters in the phase voltage feedback circuits should be designed so that their cutoff frequency
|
|
is around 19 kHz and the output impedance does not exceed 8 kohm.
|
|
3. Unless your maximum supply voltage exceeds 25 V (6S), do not change the DC link voltage measurement divider.
