Infineon Technologies launched its iMotion Modular Application Design Kit (MADK). The compact and flexible evaluation system provides a scalable design platform for 3-phase motor drives in the range from 20 W to 300 W. It includes controller and power boards – sensorless or optionally with sensors. Using the kit, a full functioning motor system can be running in less than one hour, as designers only need a few steps to run the motor: plug the cards into their PC, motor and grid, download, install and parameterise the software.
Infineon offers four kits which match different motor designs. Every kit includes a control card with debug interface, complete power stage including rectifier and EMI filter. The motor control software is preloaded or available for download, and features an easy to use GUI software for parameterisation and tuning. Via standardised M1 20-pin MADK Platform interface connector, various combinations of control and power boards can be realised to best match different application requirements.
The field oriented control (FOC) software supports sensorless motor control based on the XMC1302 microcontroller. The hardware also supports the use of Hall sensors or innovative 3D magnetic sensors. The XMC1302 control card includes a debugger based on Segger J-Link technology. Additionally, the software support for this tool includes an easy to use C-Probe based GUI. Further application software development can be implemented via DAVE,
Infineon’s free-of-charge integrated development environment (IDE), or with major ARM IDEs, like Keil, IAR or Atollic.
Another control option is available with the IRMCK099M, a motion control ASIC with hardware-based sensorless FOC control. It comes with a separate debug interface card. Available kits combine the XMC1302 control card with one of four power boards from the IPM IRSM836 series or IPM-DIP IRSM505 series (500 V or 250 V).
