Thank you, YellowDog. Could you please specify what U, V, and W are for (power, ground, and encoder output wires)? I use these two gimbal 3-phase motors Gimbal Motor with Encoder - 12V, 467RPM - SparkFun Electronics . Thank you.
U, V, and W are for the 3 phases and go to the three coils in the motor. They do not connect to the encoder.
TS-Russell, could you please clarify how to connect your encoders to the microcontroller board? I disassembled the Sparkfun DC 3-phase brushless motor, please see the photo attached. Thank you.
Hello,
I have another question. Could you please specify whether or not the Sparkfun motor-driver SparkFun Brushless Motor Driver - 3-Phase (TMC6300) - SparkFun Electronics can be disabled and enabled. I do not see any disable/enable pin. Thank you.

Thank you, YellowDog. I have just read the datasheet. I still have questions. In particular, how to connect the Sparkfun motor-driver pins to the NUCLEO64 F401RE microcontroller board? As far as I understand, three coils of each electromotor will be controlled by PWM (Pulse Width Modulation). There are six PWM pins on the microcontroller board. Each motor-driver has UL, UH, VL, VH, WL, WH. Please see the photo attached. Could you please specify how to connect all these pins? Thank you.
I’m afraid I can not help you with this part, you will need to read the Sparkfun documentation and adapt it and your code to fit your particular micro-controller board.
Hello. Could you please specify whether or not the Sparkfun TMC6300 motor-driver’s VIO pin can be used to shut off all power to the Sparkfun 3-phase BLDC motor? Thank you.
