Quick Start Guide for DEMO9S08MP16

Introduction

The DEMO9S08MP16 is a cost-effective demo platform for evaluating and
developing with the Freescale MC9S08MP16. This low-cost 8-bit MCU
is designed to deliver smooth, efficient and safe sensorless BLDC motor
control across a wide speed range of industrial and
automotive applications.

Peripherals include but are not limited to two 16-bit FlexTimers with dead­time insertion and fault protection in hardware, three high-speed analog
comparators, a 6-ch., 16-bit PWM module with emergency over-current
shutdown protection, a programmable gain amplifier and a 12-ch., 12-bit
ADC with PWM hardware triggering. Also included are an independently
clocked COP and cyclic redundancy check (CRC) engine delivering CLK
failure protection and memory content validation for
safety-critical applications.

This quick start guide provides step-by-step guidelines to get you up and
running within minutes.

A range of motor control labs for the MC9S08MP16 can be found at
www.freescale.com/motorcontrol and on the MC9S08MP16
product family Web page. These labs require the user to purchase the
APMOTOR56F8000E BLDC motor control daughter card. This motor
control board can be used with the DEMO9S08MP16, DEMO56F8013-EE
and MC56F8006DEMO.
