Kotleta 20 is an advanced Can bus controller of sensorless BLDC motors designed for autonomous applications running UAVcan protocol such as pixhawk and PX4 systems. Its primary application domains include propulsion systems of electric unmanned aircraft and watercraft. The Kotleta 20 ESC runs Sapog – an open source multiplatform BLDC controller firmware developed by Zubax Robotics.

Features

• Excellent dynamic characteristics.
• Regenerative braking and active freewheeling.
• 500 W continuous power output at 8.8 g weight.
• Optional RPM control loop (RPM governor).
• Self diagnostics and health status reporting.
• Highly configurable.
• Low noise and low current ripple due to the low-ESR embedded filtering capacitors and high frequency PWM.
• Supported interfaces:
  • CAN (ISO 11898-2)
  • UART.
  • RCPWM (analog PWM interface widely used in robotics).
• High quality assurance:
• Protection against unlicensed (counterfeit) production by means of a digital signature installed on every manufactured unit.
• Open source firmware – Sapog (3-clause BSD license).
