Getting started with the X-NUCLEO-IHM07M1 motor driver
expansion board based on the L6230 for STM32 Nucleo
Introduction
The X-NUCLEO-IHM07M1 is a three-phase brushless DC motor driver expansion board based on the
L6230 for STM32 Nucleo. It provides an affordable and easy-to-use solution for driving three-phase
brushless DC motors in your STM32 Nucleo project. The X-NUCLEO-IHM07M1 is compatible with the
ST morpho connector and supports the addition of other boards which can be stacked onto a single
STM32 Nucleo board. The user can also mount the Arduino UNO R3 connector. The X-NUCLEOIHM07M1 is fully configurable and ready to support different closed loop control based on sensor or
sensorless mode control, and it is compatible with three shunt or single shunt current sense measuring.
The driver used on this STM32 Nucleo expansion board is the L6230, a DMOS fully-integrated driver for
three-phase brushless PMSM motors, assembled in a PowerSO36 package, with overcurrent and
thermal protection. This user manual describes the procedure to configure the X-NUCLEO-IHM07M1
expansion board to operate with an STM32 Nucleo board.

2.1 System architecture
A generic motor control system can be schematized in three main blocks (see Figure 2:
"Overall system architecture"):
Control block - its main task is to accept user commands and drive a motor. The X-
NUCLEO-IHM07M1 is based on the STM32 Nucleo board, which provides all digital
signals to properly implement motor driver control.
Power block - it is based on three-phase inverter topology. The core of the power
block is the L6230 driver, which contains all the necessary active power and analog
components to perform low voltage PMSM motor control.
Motor - the X-NUCLEO-IHM07M1 is able to properly drive a low voltage BLDC/PMSM
motor.
Figure 2: Overall system architecture
2.2 Building the system
The X-NUCLEO-IHM07M1 expansion board is a complete hardware development platform
(Power block) for the STM32 Nucleo board, for evaluating a motor control solution for a
single BLDC/PMSM motor. For normal board operation, it must be connected to an STM32
Nucleo board (Control block) through the ST morpho connector, as shown in the image
below.

Figure 3: X-NUCLEO-IHM07M1 plugged on STM32 Nucleo
The interconnection between the STM32 Nucleo and the X-NUCLEO-IHM07M1 has been
designed for full-compatibility with many STM32 Nucleo boards and no solder bridge
modification is required. When stacked, the system is ready to operate with the connection
of a BLDC/PMSM motor. For proper use, please respect the hardware and software
settings. For the software details, refer to the X-CUBE-SPN7 software expansion
documents available on www.st.com.

With J9 closed, it is mandatory not to exceed 12 V DC on the J1 connector to avoid
damage to the STM32 Nucleo board.
Jumper JP5 (STM32 Nucleo board) MUST be connected between pin 2 and 3 to enable
the STM32 Nucleo external power supply.
