Motor control evaluation kit

Bringing together Nexperia’s advanced semiconductor technology with Würth Elektronik’s high-performance passive components provides engineers with a ready-made platform to accelerate motor controller development. The video gives engineers and developers insights into the kit’s design, features, and real-world benefits.

The comprehensive kit includes a 3-phase inverter board, a motor controller board, a Leonardo R3 microcontroller development board, pre-wired motor connections, and a brushless DC (BLDC) motor. Each board has been designed with precision and reliability in mind, and the unboxing video highlights its high build quality, robust technical performance, and extensive design support for developers.

The NEVB-MTR1-KIT1 motor driver evaluation kit offers a modular, developer-friendly platform that adapts to diverse motors, control algorithms, and test environments. Its flexibility accelerates motor controller development and enables rapid iteration, testing, and optimisation, helping developers speed up time to market. The kit can be configured for use in under two minutes and is conveniently powered via USB-C.

Würth Elektronik supplied a broad range of passive components for the kit – including inductors, ferrite beads, capacitors, and connectors – all selected for their reliability and performance in demanding motor control applications. A standout feature is the integration of high-current connectors, enabling evaluations up to 1 kW at 48 V.

Key applications for the kit include use with 12–48V power tools and cordless equipment plus electric forklift trucks. The unboxing video is available via Farnell’s YouTube channel.
