DC Motor 6 Click

DC Motor 6 Click demo application is developed using the NECTO Studio, ensuring compatibility with mikroSDK's open-source libraries and tools. Designed for plug-and-play implementation and testing, the demo is fully compatible with all development, starter, and mikromedia boards featuring a mikroBUS™ socket.

Example Description

This example demonstrates the use of DC Motor 6 Click board.

Example Libraries

• MikroSDK.Board
• MikroSDK.Log
• Click.Dcmotor6

Example Key Functions

• dcmotor6_cfg_setup Config Object Initialization function.

  void dcmotor6_cfg_setup ( dcmotor6_cfg_t *cfg );

• dcmotor6_init Initialization function.

  err_t dcmotor6_init ( dcmotor6_t *ctx, dcmotor6_cfg_t *cfg );

• dcmotor6_set_in1_pin Set IN1 pin.

  void dcmotor6_set_in1_pin ( dcmotor6_t *ctx, uint8_t state );

• dcmotor6_set_in2_pin Set IN1 pin.

  void dcmotor6_set_in2_pin ( dcmotor6_t *ctx, uint8_t state );

• dcmotor6_set_direction Set motor Direction.

  void dcmotor6_set_direction ( dcmotor6_t *ctx, uint8_t dir );

Application Init

Initializes the driver and makes an initial log.

void application_init ( void )
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;
    dcmotor6_cfg_t cfg;

    LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
    log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
    log_info(&logger, "---- Application Init ----");
 
    //  Click initialization.
 
    dcmotor6_cfg_setup( &cfg );
    DCMOTOR6_MAP_MIKROBUS( cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
    dcmotor6_init( &dcmotor6, &cfg );
}

Application Task

Drives the motor in the forward direction for 5 seconds, then pulls brake for 2 seconds, and after that drives it in the reverse direction for 5 seconds, and finally, disconnects the motor for 2 seconds. Each step will be logged on the USB UART where you can track the program flow.

void application_task ( void )
{
    log_printf( &logger, "The motor turns forward! \r\n" );
    dcmotor6_set_direction( &dcmotor6, DCMOTOR6_MOTOR_FORWARD );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    log_printf( &logger, "Pull brake! \r\n" );
    dcmotor6_set_direction( &dcmotor6, DCMOTOR6_MOTOR_BRAKE );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    log_printf( &logger, "The motor turns in reverse! \r\n" );
    dcmotor6_set_direction( &dcmotor6, DCMOTOR6_MOTOR_REVERSE );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    log_printf( &logger, "The motor is disconnected (High-Z)! \r\n" );
    dcmotor6_set_direction( &dcmotor6, DCMOTOR6_MOTOR_STOP );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
}

Application Output

This Click board can be interfaced and monitored in two ways:

• Application Output - Use the "Application Output" window in Debug mode for real-time data monitoring. Set it up properly by following this tutorial.
• UART Terminal - Monitor data via the UART Terminal using a USB to UART converter. For detailed instructions, check out this tutorial.

Additional Notes and Information

The complete application code and a ready-to-use project are available through the NECTO Studio Package Manager for direct installation in the NECTO Studio. The application code can also be found on the MIKROE GitHub account.
