Modern motor control systems have tough demands. They require precision control, advanced onboard intelligence, and seamless connectivity to larger industrial automation systems.

By leveraging the Zephyr Real-Time Operating System (RTOS), developers can quickly leverage these hardware capabilities. Specifically, Zephyr’s comprehensive driver support and real-time scheduling capabilities, allowing them to focus on their motor control application logic rather than low-level peripheral configuration.

This guide examines the key capabilities of the NXP i.MX RT1060 eval kit and Zephyr RTOS. It demonstrates how to use the platform to implement Field-Oriented Control (FOC), CAN communication, and external connectivity through Ethernet. Finally, it walks through the key steps in configuring and implementing a motor control system.
