CoolSiC evaluation board for motor drives

23 October 2019 Power Electronics / Power Management

Infineon Technologies’ EVAL-M5-E1B1245N-SiC is a complete evaluation board, including a three-phase CoolSiC MOSFET power module for motor drive applications. In combination with one of the available MADK control board options with the M5 32-pin connector, it demonstrates Infineon’s silicon carbide (SiC) power module technology.

The board features the EasyPACK 1B 1200 V CoolSiC MOSFET power module (FS45MR12W1M1_B11) in six-pack configuration which is optimised for motor drive applications with very high-frequency switching operation, such as general-purpose drives and the fast growing servo drive and robotics market.

It is equipped with all assembly groups for sensorless field oriented control (FOC), over-temperature and over-current protection as well as short circuit protection. The evaluation board was developed to support customers during their first steps designing motor drive applications with the FS45MR12W1M1_B11.
