Key Features
Motor Types Supported:
  • BLDC (Brushless DC) motors with 6-step commutation
  • PMDC (Permanent Magnet DC) motors with direct voltage control
Control Architecture:
  • PID-based speed control with anti-windup protection
  • Separate current control for BLDC motors
  • Real-time simulation with 100μs time steps
Motor Models:
  • Electrical dynamics (resistance, inductance, back-EMF)
  • Mechanical dynamics (inertia, friction, load torque)
  • Six-step commutation logic for BLDC motors
Code Structure Analysis
The implementation follows good practices:
  • Modular function design
  • Global parameter management
  • Comprehensive plotting and visualization
  • Export capabilities for Altair Embed integration
Potential Improvements:
  1. The motor models use simplified current dynamics - could be enhanced with proper differential equation solving
  2. Load torque is constant - could implement variable load profiles
  3. No sensor modeling (assumes perfect feedback)
  4. Could add more sophisticated control strategies (FOC, DTC)
Altair Embed Integration
The code generates:
  • .mat files with simulation data
  • C code structure templates for embedded implementation
  • Compatible data formats for model-based design
