Welcome to Motor with Encoder repository

For ESP32

Drive motor and read encoder-IIC

1.1 Explanation

Please read 《0. Motor introduction and usage》first to understand the motor parameters, wiring method, and power supply voltage you are currently using. To avoid improper operation and damage to the driver board or motor.

I2C and serial communication cannot be shared, only one can be selected.

This course uses the YahboomESP32 image transmission module lite version.

If you use other ESP32-S3 boards, you need to modify the pin settings in the program according to your board pin situation.

Use ESP-IDF 5.4.0 version to compile the project.

USB to TTL serial port module needs to be connected, mainly for printing data.

When using the Yahboom ESP32 image transmission module lite version, the 3V3 of the USB to TTL serial port module must be replaced with 5V and connected to the 5V on the ESP32 board to write the program normally.

After the program is written, it can be switched back to 3V3.

Serial port configuration: Baud rate 115200, no parity check, no hardware flow control, 1 stop bit

Note: The serial port here is used to print data on the serial port assistant, not for communication with the driver board

1.2 Code analysis

#define I2C_MASTER_SCL_IO 37  // SCL
#define I2C_MASTER_SDA_IO 38  // SDA

This code is defined in the file i2c_module.h.

If you need to change the pin for I2C communication, you can modify the number here.

​x
#define UPLOAD_DATA 2  // 1:接收总的编码器数据 2:接收实时的编码器 1: Receive total encoder data 2: Receive real-time encoder data

#define MOTOR_TYPE 1   //1:520电机 2:310电机 3:测速码盘TT电机 4:TT直流减速电机 5:L型520电机
                       //1:520 motor 2:310 motor 3:speed code disc TT motor 4:TT DC reduction motor 5:L type 520 motor
  • UPLOAD_DATA: used to set the data of the motor encoder. Set 1 to the total number of encoder pulses and 2 to the real-time pulse data of 10ms.

  • MOTOR_TYPE: used to set the type of motor used. Just modify the corresponding numbers according to the comments according to the motor you are currently using. You don’t need to modify the rest of the code.

If you need to drive the motor and observe the data, just modify the two numbers at the beginning of the program. No changes are required to the rest of the code.

This is used to store the parameters of the Yahboom motor. By modifying the MOTOR_TYPE parameter above, one-click configuration can be achieved.

In normally, do not modify the code here when using the Yahboom motor.

If you are using your own motor, or if a certain data needs to be modified according to your needs, you can check the course《1.2 Control command》 to understand the specific meaning of each command.

            #if MOTOR_TYPE == 4
            control_pwm(i*20,i*20,i*20,i*20);// PWM控制模式 | PWM control
            #else
            control_speed(i*10,i*10,i*10,i*10);// 速度控制模式 | Speed control
            #endif
            delay_ms(100);
            
            #if UPLOAD_DATA == 1
            Read_ALL_Enconder();
            printf("M1:%d\t M2:%d\t M3:%d\t M4:%d\t \r\n",Encoder_Now[0],Encoder_Now[1],Encoder_Now[2],Encoder_Now[3]);
            #elif UPLOAD_DATA == 2
            Read_10_Enconder();
            printf("M1:%d\t M2:%d\t M3:%d\t M4:%d\t \r\n",Encoder_Offset[0],Encoder_Offset[1],Encoder_Offset[2],Encoder_Offset[3]);
            #endif

        }

    }

In the main program loop, the speed of the four motors will be slowly increased from 0 to 1000. If the motor type is 4, that is, the motor without encoder, the PWM of the motor is directly controlled.

At the same time, the data sent by the driver board is read and printed out.

    Encoder_Now[3] = buf[0]<<24|buf[1]<<16|buf2[0]<<8|buf2[1];
    
}

After getting the data from the driver board, it is shifted, and the shift is required to get the correct data.

1.3 Experimental phenomenon

After the wiring is correct, write the program into the mainboard. After powering on again, you can see that the motor will gradually speed up, then stop, and repeat.

At the same time, you can see the motor value constantly changing in the serial monitor.
