FOC BLDC Motor driver - 32V (fake!)

Looks like quite a nice one, already running SimpleFOC and a reasonable level of documentation

I think this project is just a giant AI slop. There are so many hallucinations, and I don’t think it can even run SimpleFOC at all, because the main driver IC is DRV8308 which is an integrated control chip. The STM32 cannot directly control the MOSFETs at all. And the 50A continuous current rating would generate ~50W of heat using those MOSFETs plus another 12.5W in the shunt and a bit more in the reverse polarity protection mosfet, probably would melt very quickly unless some really fancy heatsink is used.

Hmm yes looking at it more closely I think you're correct

I think it only runs in velocity mode, like the ZS-X11H I have tried. (potmeter or PWM input configurable)
One could try to configure simpleDCmotor in onePWM mode to use the pwm input of the DRV8308. But the influence of the STM-chip is very limitted. (maybe ramp the speed up/down)
