Hello,
The uDriver V3 is not production ready yet, I suggest continuing with the uDriver V2 for now.
I’ve pushed everything on GitHub, so it will be easier to track the evolution of the board. We are preparing a revision correcting some hardware design issue, switch to more available components, and rethinking the pinout for easier integration in solo.
The timeline for finishing rooting this board revision and having it assembled and tested is fixed to end of December.
After validation, I hope that more people can have this board fabricated. The sourcing of the TMS320F28388D is also difficult at the moment. But at least we have some stock at LAAS to test the design.
Sorry for the long silence, now every development on hardware and firmware for this board will be documented on the GitHub history.
About the support of magnetic encoder, yes, the new board as been tested with an external SPI absolute encoder (as5047u and works fine. It is however not easy to add a magnetic encoder to odri modules.
Best,
Thomas.
