The Advanced Motor Drive Controller (AMDC) is an open-source project from the Severson Research Group at UW-Madison, affiliated with Wisconsin Electric Machines and Power Electronics Consortium (WEMPEC).
AMDC is a next generation open-source hardware and software control platform for power electronics and motor drives, designed and developed for academic applications. AMDC contains high performance dual-core digital signal processors, tightly integrated custom digital logic (FPGA), and a plethora of extremely flexible inputs and outputs (I/O) designed to interface to motor drives. Low-level firmware drivers have been developed to abstract away the complexities of the software / hardware interface, letting users focus on implementing custom control algorithms. Common use-case controller code is provided which gets new users up and running efficiently. AMDC empowers engineers to control advanced systems with ease.
The best way to get started with the AMDC platform is by thoroughly reading the documentation — see the next section.
Detailed documentation about the AMDC firmware is available in the docs/ subfolder of this repo. Check it out...
