Description
The STEVAL-IHM024V1 demonstration board is a
100 W 3-phase inverter with field-oriented control
(FOC) for permanent-magnet synchronous
motors (PMSM).
This flexible, high-performance design consists of
a 3-phase inverter bridge based on the hyper-fast
IGBT STGDL6NC60DI (6 A 600 V) and on the
high-voltage half-bridge gate driver L6390. The
L6390 device features an integrated comparator
to protect hardware against faults such as
overcurrent and overtemperature, and an
embedded operational amplifier suitable for
advanced current sensing.
The board is designed to be compatible with a
110 Vac and 230 Vac mains input, and includes a
power supply stage with the VIPer12AS-E (in
buck configuration) to generate the +15 V and
+3.3 V supply voltage required by the application.
Additionally, using a dedicated connector, the
board can be interfaced with the STM3210B-
EVAL evaluation board, which is an evaluation
platform for STMicroelectronics’ ARM
TM
Cortex-
M3 core-based STM32F10x 128 Kb
microcontrollers.
