dspin.h file content AN3980 7/18 doc id 022200 rev 1 4 dspin.h file content the dspin.h file contains the following: demonstration board related signal assignments structure definition for l6470 register initialization register options / mask definition (enumerated types) l6470 register addresses (enumerated types) l6470 command set definition (enumerated types) macro definition - used for function input parameter conversions list of function prototypes which are implemented in the dspin.c file. 4.1 demonstration board related signal assignments demonstration board type must be defined prior to the signal assignment definition. therefore, one of the following lines should appear at the beginning of the dspin.h file: figure 3. demonstration board selection it is recommended to keep both in the code and comment the one which does not correspond to the requested configuration.
AN3980 dspin.h file content doc id 022200 rev 1 8/18 in figure 4 it is possible to see how the signals are assigned depending on the demonstration board type: figure 4. demonstration board signal assignment the second demonstration board option, stm32 value line discovery, is implemented in a similar way.
dspin.h file content AN3980 9/18 doc id 022200 rev 1 4.2 dspin init structure definition to configure all l6470 registers a dedicated structure type has been defined: figure 5. l6470 registers structure type definition typically, a variable is created in the main program loop and filled with requested register parameters. then, the appropriate function call (dspin_registers_set(&dspin_regsstruct)) can program all registers as requested by the user. 4.3 register options / mask definition (enumerated types) as l6470 consists of 25 registers, and many of them include multiple parameter settings, the complete code to cover all the definitions is large. the following lists are just selected examples and the others can be found directly in the header file.

AN3980 dspin.h file content doc id 022200 rev 1 12/18 4.5 l6470 command set definition dspin motion and other types of commands are coded with numeric (single byte) constants. for transparent code implementation, the following type definition has been created: figure 9. l6470 command set type definition 4.6 macros definition some of the l6470 commands use input parameters which are proportional to a real number. for this reason there is a need to recalculate (convert) the requested option parameter in real numeric format to the function parameter in integer format. to make it user friendly and allow usage of input parameters in real numeric format, macros for parameter conversion have been implemented. for example, the ?run? command supposes to get a speed parameter in unsigned fixed point 0.28 number format. in this case, the ?speed_steps_to_par(speed)? macro can be used to convert real speed (in steps per second) to the parameter of the ?run? command.

AN3980 dspin.c file content doc id 022200 rev 1 14/18 5 dspin.c file content dspin.c is the library source file. it contains all the l6470 commands and the implementation of other support functions. it starts with the dspin_peripherals_init function which configures all the required microcontroller peripherals (gpios, spi) and it is called at the beginning of the main program loop. the function considers signal assignments made in the dspin.h file. the dspin_regs_struct_reset function fills all the structure fields with default values. the dspin_registers_set function programs all parameters into l6470 internal registers. it uses pointer-to-structure as the input parameter, so the structure must be filled properly in advance of this function call. the dspin.c file contains all the dspin commands and the implementation of other support functions. the code is well commented, please refer directly to the file for more details.
main.c file content AN3980 15/18 doc id 022200 rev 1 6 main.c file content the main.c file starts with the system clock configuration in order to switch from internal rc oscillator to external crystal circuit. it sets sysclk frequency to 24 mhz. then, the above mentioned dspin_peripherals_init function is processed. the dspin_regs_struct_reset function is called to fill all dspin_regsstruct structure fields with default values. as a next step, the majority of the dspin_regsstruct fields are modified either directly or with the help of the macros already described (see section 4 ). l6470 internal registers are then programmed by the dspin_registers_set function. the rest of the main.c file code demonstrates how to use the library functions.
