UG-2020-27 EVAL-M1-IM828-A user guide Modular application design kit (MADK) of IM828-XCC About this document Scope and purpose This user guide provides an overview of the evaluation board EVAL-M1-IM828-A including its main features, key data, pin assignments and mechanical dimensions. EVAL-M1-IM828-A is a power evaluation board from the MADK including M1 connector and one CIPOS Maxi 1200 V three-phase module for motor drive applications. In combination with either EVAL-M1-101T or other control boards with compatible M1 connectors, it features and demonstrates Infineons CIPOS Maxi IPM technology for motor drives. The evaluation board EVAL-M1-IM828-A was developed to support customers during their first steps designing applications with IM828-XCC CIPOS Maxi power modules. Intended audience This user guide is intended for all technical specialists who know motor control, middle- and low-power electronics converters. The board is intended to be used under laboratory conditions. Evaluation Board This board will be used during design-in, for evaluation and measurement of characteristics, and proof of data sheet specifications. Note: PCB and auxiliary circuits are NOT optimized for final customer design.
