Overview

The LAUNCHXL-F280049C is a low-cost development board for the C2000 Piccolo TMS320F280049C microcontroller, designed specifically for high-performance digital control applications. It features a 100MHz C28x floating-point CPU with specialized peripherals for power electronics and motor control, including InstaSPIN-FOC capability. The board includes an integrated XDS110 debug probe, providing a complete out-of-the-box evaluation environment without the need for external hardware.

Why Choose This Part

This LaunchPad excels in control applications due to its 100MHz floating-point core and 256KB of flash memory. The inclusion of InstaSPIN-FOC in ROM allows developers to identify and control motors in minutes, while the Configurable Logic Block (CLB) enables the integration of custom logic and specialized timing requirements directly onto the MCU.

Applications

Industrial Motor Drives
Utilizing InstaSPIN-FOC to simplify the development of high-efficiency sensorless field-oriented control for three-phase motors.
Digital Power Conversion
Implementing high-speed PWM and ADC feedback loops for solar inverters, UPS systems, and server power supplies.
Electric Vehicle Subsystems
Managing on-board chargers and DC-DC converters using the integrated CAN interface and Configurable Logic Blocks (CLB).
