Important Note

The firmware in this repository is compatible with the ODrive v3.x (NRND) and is no longer under active development.

Firmware for the new generation of ODrives (ODrive Pro, S1, Micro, etc.) is currently being actively maintained and developed, however its source code is currently not publicly available. Access may be available under NDA, please reach out to us for inquiries.

Overview

ODrive Logo

This project is all about accurately driving brushless motors, for cheap. The aim is to make it possible to use inexpensive brushless motors in high performance robotics projects, like this.

Questions

How big is the Odrive PCB?

It measures 140.5 × 50 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Odrive use?

217 parts, built around the SN65HVD232D. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Odrive KiCad files?

From the KunYi/study_odrive repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Hardware/v3_6_kicad8/odrive.kicad_pcb and its schematic Hardware/v3_6_kicad8/AuxHalfH.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Odrive design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
