[0021] It has the following beneficial effects:
[0022] 1. The multi-model EPS controller is integrated into a universal platform structure. Through the setting of the base plate and the various groups of mounting holes thereon, different types of PCBA boards can be installed on the base plate with mounting holes in different positions according to needs. The design of the base plate realizes platformization. EPS controllers with similar functional performance requirements can share one PCBA board, saving nearly 70% of the workload of repeated design, and can also reduce the number of component material models by nearly 20%. Overall, the R&D cycle is shortened, the production cost is reduced, the quality control items are reduced, and the process content of management work is simplified, which solves the problem that different models of PCBA boards in the existing EPS controller need to be matched with a base plate of corresponding shape, which is heavy in workload and low in practicality;
