About the Alu casing PCB

Alu casing is an open source PCB design by pekkaroi, published on GitHub under the GPL-2.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 98 × 90 mm, with 49 components from 16 distinct parts.

Other key parts include the 7805_NUMB, INA27x and IR2101. By type, the board carries 18 capacitors, 14 resistors, 6 transistors, 5 ICs, 3 diodes and 2 connectors.

It belongs with the robotics & motion designs in this gallery.

From the project

Cheap and simple brushless DC motor driver designed for CNC applications using STM32 microcontroller

This is a project developing a simple BLDC servo controller. It is based on an STM32F103 microcontroller.

Some parts, especially the PID control loop is based on development done by user mcm_xyz in cnczone.com forum. Thank you! Check the thread http://www.cnczone.com/forums/open-source-controller-boards/283428-cnc.html

Second hardware revision with the above findings fixed is published. There are no known issues, two servo drives are succesfully driving my CNC router. Pics and videos to come..
