The PAC5253 belongs to active-semi®’s Power Application Controller® (PAC) family. The PAC family of products are highly-optimized SOC devices that can implement BLDC or PMSM programmable motor controller and driver in a single integrated IC. The PAC5253 integrates a FLASH-based MCU, Power Management, High-side and low-side Gate Drivers and Signal-Conditioning components in a single product. The PAC5253 is optimized for AC-Powered BLDC or PMSM motor control applications such as AC-powered fans, white goods or compressors in a low pin-count package. The PAC5253 contains a 50MHz Arm® Cortex®-M0 with 32kB of FLASH that can be used to implement high-performance motor control and supervisory applications. The MCU also contains motor control peripherals such as 10b 1MSPS dual auto-sequencer ADC, PWM timers with hardware dead-time insertion, etc. The Multi-Mode Power Manager™ (MMPM) contains a Flyback DC/DC controller and power management components for powering the IC and other PCB system power supplies. The Application-Specific Power Drivers™ provide integrated gate drivers for use with an external inverter. The Configurable Analog Front-End™ (CAFE) provides signal-chain components such as differential and single-end amplifiers, comparators and DACs.

Supporting Evaluation Tools
The ET-UARTSWD adapter is the preferred adapter for evaluation of PAC devices/firmware and combines a USB to UART adapter with SWD debugger connector adaptation into a single board with isolation. The ET-UARTISO-1 adapter provides only the USB to UART adapter with isolation for Active-Semi application GUI communications.
ET-UARTSWD
 |
The ET-UARTSWD isolated communications and debugging interface unifies two modules into one. Previously, interfacing a PC Computer to any of Active-Semi’s PAC5xxx Evaluation Modules required one module to enable UART based serial communications and a second module to allow for in-system debugging and FLASH memory programing. | |

PAC5xxx Flash Programmer Tools
Active-Semi has partnered with Flash Programmer solution providers to support our Intelligent Motor Control PAC product families.
These proven tools are suitable for emerging and high volume product manufacturing.
Both package level (socketed) and board level Flash programming solutions are available.
Active-Semi will support other vendors familiar with Arm® Serial Wire Debug (SWD) protocol to add PAC product compatibility on their existing Flash programmer platforms.

Installer for the PAC52XX BLDC application firmware, which implements sensored BLDC and sensorless BEMF motor control on all members of the PAC52XX family. The installer contains example application source code, Windows graphical user interface (GUI), and documentation to allow the user to configure the system to work with their target motor. Project files for IAR Systems Embedded Workbench for ARM (EWARM) and Keil uVision are included.
Installer for the PAC FOC application firmware designed to show case motor control using sensorless Field Oriented Control (FOC) on all PAC devices. The installer contains example FOC application source code, Windows graphical user interface (GUI), and documentation to allow the user to configure the system to work with their target motor. Project files for IAR Systems Embedded Workbench for Arm® (EWARM), Keil uVision and Eclipse are included. The FOC application provides a configurable set of features to meet many different application requirements such as sensorless position/speed estimator, start-in-motion (SIM), three or single shunt operation, open phase detection (OPD), field weakening and others.
Installer for the PAC52XX Software Development Kit (SDK) that provides register level definitions and peripheral driver APIs for developing ARM M0 application firmware on all PAC52XX devices. The PAC52XX SDK is a unified SDK that supports Keil µVision IDE, IAR Systems Embedded Workbench for ARM (EWARM) IDE, and GCC tool chains.
Installer for the PAC52xx Example Code that provides a simple source code example for getting started with the following IDE projects: Keil MDK (µVision), IAR Systems Embedded Workbench for ARM (EWARM), and Eclipse.
PAC52xx IDE Support
Development of application firmware for PAC52XX Arm® Cortex® M0 is made easy with standard integrated development environments (IDEs). Several of the most popular IDEs contain support for PAC52XX devices including Keil uVision, and IAR Systems Embedded Workbench for Arm®. Eclipse development is possible using J-Link by downloading and installing the “Eclipse with PAC support” package.
