The STM32 MC SDK is a software development kit that makes it easy to create three-phase BLDC motor control applications running on STM32 microcontrollers.
In this hands-on workshop, you will learn how to make use of the latest improvements in the STM32 MC SDK to develop motor control applications using an STM32G4-based development kit, the P-NUCLEO-IHM03.
The lab sessions will include instructions on how to profile the motor characteristics, how to use the new Workbench GUI to configure field-oriented control (FOC), and how to use the new Motor Pilot to monitor and tune your final application.
This workshop is self-paced and can be accessed on-demand any time after the start of the selected session. However, please note that the live technical support (via online break-out rooms) is available only during the scheduled session hours listed in the table below.
This workshop is intended for control engineers, firmware developers, system integrators, and hardware design engineers developing three-phase brushless motor control solutions on STM32 microcontrollers.
The hands-on sections are especially targeted to engineers that have some previous experience with using motor control development tools. This includes engineers using the previous generation MC SDK v5 (legacy version) or using other motor control solutions who wish to evaluate the easy-to-use and feature-rich STM32 solution.
This workshop is open to residents of the Americas only.
The P-NUCLEO-IHM03 development kit from STMicroelectronics is required to participate in the workshop exercises. Exclusively for attendees of this workshop, a limited number will be available for purchase from the ST eStore with free shipping. We will email you detailed purchase instructions when we receive your request to participate.
We recommend using two screens so that you can watch, pause, and rewind the instruction video on one screen while completing the workshop tasks on the other.

Jeff has over 40 years in the industry, working in product design, management, field applications engineering, and motor control. He joined ST 10 years ago and currently supports motor control and digital power supply design in the Americas. He is a graduate of West Virginia Institute of Technology and Virginia Polytechnic Institute.
With 15 years at ST, Gregg is currently supporting MCU and MPU products in the Americas. Additional responsibilities include motor control and digital power applications. Prior to ST, Gregg worked as a product design engineer for automotive components and systems. He holds an MSEE from the University of Michigan.
The P-NUCLEO-IHM03 motor-control kit is composed of the X-NUCLEO-IHM16M1 board, the NUCLEO-G431RB board, a brushless Gimbal motor (GBM2804H-100T), and a DC power supply. This STM32-based platform provides a motor-control solution for three-phase, low-voltage, and low-current DC brushless or PMSM motors. It is based on the STSPIN830 driver and on the STM32G431RB microcontroller.
The STM32 MC SDK (motor control software development kit) is firmware that includes a permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) firmware library for FOC control and the STM32 Motor Control Workbench with graphical user interface (GUI) to configure the FOC firmware library parameters. The STM32 Motor Control Workbench is PC software that reduces design effort and time needed for STM32 PMSM FOC firmware configuration.
