Infineon Technologies EVAL-M1-IM818-A CIPOS™ Maxi IPM Evaluation Board
Infineon Technologies EVAL-M1-IM818-A CIPOS™ Maxi IPM Evaluation Board is a part of the iMOTION™ Modular Application Design Kit for drives (iMOTION MADK). The MADK platform is intended to use various power stages with different control boards. These boards can easily be interfaced through the iMOTION MADK-M1 20 pin interface connector. The EVAL-M1-IM818-A Evaluation Board is designed to provide an easy-to-use power stage based on the Infineon CIPOS Maxi Inteligent Power Module (IPM). The EVAL-M1-IM818-A Evaluation Board is equipped with all assembly groups for sensorless Field Oriented Control (FOC). It provides a single-phase AC-connector, rectifier, and 3-phase output for for connecting the motor. The power stage also contains emitter shunts for current sensing and a voltage divider for DC-link voltage measurement.Features
