# Arduino *Simple**FOC** PowerShield* *v0.2* 
A powerful arduino shield for running BLDC motors using the FOC algorithm. This board is based on the [BTN8982](https://www.infineon.com/dgdl/Infineon-BTN8982TA-DS-v01_00-EN.pdf?fileId=db3a30433fa9412f013fbe32289b7c17) half bridges and can support currents up to 30 Amps continuos and 50Amps peak. Making it a board that can run virtually any BLDC motor.

- **Max power <500W**: max current 30A, power-supply 24V
- **Arduino headers**: Arduino UNO, Arduino MEGA, STM32 Nucleo boards, Aruidno DUE...
- **Small size**: 53mm x 60mm
- **Encoder/Hall sensors interface**: Integrated 3.3kΩ pullups (configurable)
- **Open Source**: 
   - Fully available fabrication files  
        - If never done it before, see a similar guide for *Simple**FOC**Shueld*:  [how to make it yourself](https://docs.simplefoc.com/arduino_simplefoc_shield_fabrication)
   - Altium project
   - 3d model
   - schematics
    
#### Future features
- **Stackable**: running 2 motors in the same time
- **I2C interface**: Integrated 4.7kΩ pullups (configurable)
- **Configurable pinout**: Hardware configuration - soldering connections

> New version of the *Simple**FOC** PowerShield* is in the development at the moment (*v0.3*).
> The first versions are currently in testing. For more info check the [developmental branch](https://github.com/simplefoc/Arduino-SimpleFOC-PowerShield/tree/dev)
