Automotive SmartMCD™

Toshiba’s SmartMCD™ motor control driver ICs series offer an innovative approach to automotive DC and BLDC motor control by integrating drivers and gate- drivers together with an Arm® Cortex® based microcontroller into a single compact package. SmartMCDs support communication interfaces such as LIN, enabling seamless integration into automotive networks. This high level of integration supports a wide range of automotive applications—from power windows and sunroofs to pumps and fans—delivering reliable, efficient, and scalable motor control solutions.

SmartMCD™ Concept

The SmartMCD™ series is a product that integrates a microcontroller and motor driver along with flash memory, power supply circuitry, and communication interfaces.

Example: BLDC motor control using TB9M003FG

Software Development Environment

The development environment is composed of tools provided by our company as well as third-party vendors.
It includes an integrated development environment (IDE), a motor control PC tool (Motor Studio), a FLASH programmer, a RAM monitor, motor control reference software, low-level drivers, evaluation boards, and model-based design (MBD) models.
Motor Studio allows users to configure motor control parameters and perform  real-time monitoring via a graphical user interface (GUI).
