X-NUCLEO-IHM09M1 Hardware Description
•The X-NUCLEO-IHM09M1 is a motor control connector
expansion board for STM32 Nucleo. It provides an easy way to
evaluate motor control solutions for three-phase motors by
adapting the STM32 Nucleo board with an external ST motor
control power board, thanks to ST morpho and motor control
connector. The 34-pin motor control connector is compatible with
all major ST motor control power boards, requiring an external
digital section (MCU) to drive a three-phase motor. The DAC
connector supports user code development and testing with easy
access to the MCU peripherals. An LED is available for fault
condition signaling or status indication.
Main features:
•ST motor control connector (34 pins) compatible with major ST
motor control power boards
•STM32 Nucleo support, thanks to ST morpho connectors
•Compatible with six-step and FOC motor control firmware
library by ST
•Debug connector for DAC, GPIOs, etc.
•Fully populated board conception with test points
•LED for fault signaling or status indication
•Potentiometer available (i.e. for speed reference)
•RoHS compliant Latest info available at www.st.com

X-NUCLEO-IHM09M1
A generic motor control system can be schematized in three major blocks
•Control block - its main task is to accept user commands and provide motor control signals to
drive a motor. The X-NUCLEO-IHM09M1 is an adapter usefully to connect a STM32 Nucleo board
with power board that required an external digital section
•Power block -it is normally based on 3-phase inverter topology and it is the heart of the power
which contains all the necessary active power and analog components to perform a low voltage
PMSM/BLDC motor control.
•Motor - 3 phase brushless motor.

Setup
HW prerequisites (2/2)
•The X-NUCLEO-IHM09M1 adapts the
STM32 Nucleo to the ST motor control
power boards requiring and external
digital section to perform a three-phases
PMSM/BLDC Motor control. For a regular
board operating, it must be plugged on a
STM32 Nucleo board (Control block)
through the ST morpho connector
•The interconnection between the STM32
Nucleo board and the X-NUCLEO-
IHM09M1 expansion board has been
designed for a full-compatibility with a lot
of STM32 Nucleo boards and no
modification of solder bridges is required.
The solution stacked is ready to be
operating with the connection of power
board compatible with a standard 34 pins
flat cable.
