Assistance Needed: Custom Control Board with STM32G030C8T6 not Appearing in Board Manager

[Ethan_hunt04]

Hello ST Motor Control Workbench Support Team,
I am seeking your assistance with a challenge I am facing while configuring my custom control board, which utilizes the STM32G030C8T6 microcontroller

I have successfully created a custom control board (with.json file) tailored to my specific application within the software. However, I am encountering an issue where the custom board is not appearing in the Board Manager of the software. This prevents me from proceeding with the necessary configurations for my motor control development.

Could you please provide guidance on how to troubleshoot and resolve this issue? Additionally, if there are any specific steps or considerations for integrating a custom control board that are not covered in the documentation, I would greatly appreciate your insights.

please find .json file attached.

Hello,

For the moment your needed mcu json file is not available in current Workbench delivery, it will be added in next versions. Please add attached STM32G030C8Tx.json file in your "WorkBench\Utilities\PC_Software\STMCWB\assets\hardware\mcu" directory.

For MotorControlConnector type connectors, each signal has to be labelled "MCx", please find in attachment (Custom_G030.json) a re-worked version of your .json file.

Hello, I am using the above .json file to generate an inverter file based on the G030C8T6 MCU, and found that it does not support three resistor resistance sampling and ICS current sampling, is there any solution for this?

Hello,

ICS is not supported on STM32G0. The reason is that STM32G0 is a low-end solution with only 1 ADC, whereas the ICS is an expensive high-end solution. Our ICS implementation relies on 2 ADCs.

3-shunt current sensing is supported. Could you attach your inverter json file ? Are you sure that all pins connected to your current sensing are connected the ADC ?

Regards
