The XMOS motor control platform is comprised of:
* XCore® processors, the industry’s only hard real-time, multi-threaded processor architecture
* XMOS motor control hardware board, with support for dual axis motor control and communication
* A suite of control, processing and interfacing functions, to help designers quickly develop advanced motor drives entirely in high level software programming languages
XMOS Motor Control Board Key Features
* Two XMOS XS1-L processors:
o XS1-L1 500 MIPS processor handling three-phase BLDC motor control loops
o XS1-L2 1000MIPS processor handling communication, logging and motion control
* Six-channel 14-bit 600KSPS ADC with individual sample/hold
* Two-channel hall effect encoder input
* Isolated power section supporting up to 24V and 10A total
* 7.7 Watt Faulhaber BLDC 24v motor
* 32MB of SDRAM
* General I/O including 12 ch 10b ADC, Ethernet, CAN, LCD and GPIO
* Power supply, demonstration software and documentation

Here is the Kit link http://www.xmos.com/development-kits/mo ... l-platform
Where is the source code for the kit, I couldn't find it?

This looks like a very usable kit. Could go directly into many motor drive applications, but also is a great test ground for ADC sensing apps, where one is expecting to lay out a cost-reduced custom board after proof of concept.
Nice interviews too!
Folknology I'm guessing the code would come out with the board, in December. Were you thinking same as me? I think we both want to see that ethernet stack.
Thanks!

I WANT ONE!!!
Great stuff XMOS. That will be a great platform for all sorts of development, not just Motor control.
Pity that it didn't include a G4 which would have given even more room to play.
I am also looking forward to seeing the code especially the TCP/IP stack.

I'm also eagerly waiting for the software package and how "industrial ethernet" will be adressed.
An Ethercat implementation in XC, maybe?

Looks good and I will definitely buy one.
Hopefully XMOS can write some optimized closed DC brushed and brushless servo loop controls by reading encoders. Looks like it should have at least 6 H bridges to control 2 brushless so lots of options for various motors.
Looking forward to the source code and schematic layout so I can use in my designs.
