Description

  • Update bldc_driver to set the fault pin as a mcpwm_fault configuration and to go into brake mode on fault
  • Updated bldc_driver to change how generators are configured to remove unnecessary warnings from macros.
  • Updated bldc_driver to free allocated memory for mcpwm objects in destructor.
  • Update bldc_motor sensor direction (in calibration) logging to be info so that it prints without needing debug level.

Motivation and Context

  • Improves memory handling (freeing resources) when driver is no longer needed
  • Removes warnings during compilation
  • Leverages MCPWM peripheral to immediately go into brake mode when fault is detected (so that user code doesn't have to manage that)
  • Improves how users can calibrate motors (using only INFO logs)

How has this been tested?

Building and running the bldc haptics example.
