Is practiSPIN a real-time evaluation tool?
The practiSPIN software provided with the tool is actually made up of two different tools in the same package. The first tool is an interface between the personal computer and the motor driver. This section can drive in real-time different kind of motors. The software also includes a power dissipation and thermal analysis section, that is not real-time but helps in calculating the IC power dissipation and estimating its junction temperature, through a simulation.
