This tree contains SiLabs assembly code for SiLabs MCU based ESCs. Features and Changes -------------------- -- Can be configured for main motor or tail motor operation -- Main motor operation has governor functionality -- Tail motor operation can be damped for fast motor retardation -- Many parmeters can be programmed from the TX -- Supports 1kHz, 2kHz, 4kHz or 8kHz positive or negative pwm as input signal +- Can be configured for helicopter MAIN motor or TAIL motor operation. Or as MULTIcopter motor operation. +- Main motor operation has governor functionality and multicopter motor operation has closed loop functionality. +- Motor operation can be damped for fast motor retardation. +- Many parameters can be programmed, either from PC applications for setup and configuration, or from the TX. +- Supports 1kHz, 2kHz, 4kHz, 8kHz or 12kHz positive or negative pwm as input signal, as well as regular 1-2ms PPM signal. Supported Hardware ------------------- -- DP 3A -- Supermicro 3.5A -- XP 3A -- XP 7A -- XP 12A -- Turnigy 6A - -Installation and use +-------------------- +- Lots of different ESCs. See the doc "BLHeli supported SiLabs ESCs.pdf" for details. + +Operation and use +-------------------- +- See the doc "BLHeli manual SiLabs RevN.x.pdf". + +Coding tools -------------------- The software is written and debugged in the SiLabs IDE. Compilation is done using Raisonance Ride7 and Rkit-51 toolchain.
