UM1036 Board description Board description System architecture A generic motor control system can be basically schematized as the arrangement of four main blocks (see Figure ● Control block - its main task is to accept user commands and motor drive configuration parameters.
Board description UM1036 Circuit description 3.3.1 Power supply The power supply for the STEVAL-IHM028V1 demonstration board is implemented as a wide range converter. The range of the input voltage is from 90 VAC or 125 VDC up to 285 VAC or 400 VDC. This range allows the demonstration board to be used in direct connection with various single phases as well as the PFC input stage.
UM1036 Board description 3.3.2 Inrush limitation The input stage of the demonstration board is provided with an NTC resistor to eliminate input inrush current peak during the charging of the bulk capacitors. To achieve a higher efficiency of the inverter it is possible to bypass the NTC after the start-up phase. The NTC bypass signal is provided from the MCU board through the J2 connector.
Board description UM1036 Overcurrent protection acts as soon as the voltage on the CIN pin rises above the internal voltage reference (typical value V is 0.53 V). Considering the default value of the REF_INT OCP shunt resistor, it follows that the maximum allowed current is equal to: Equation 1 ×...

UM1036 Board description Configuration with a shunt resistor, where voltage amplified with an operational amplifier is sensed, was chosen as current sensing networks. Single-shunt configuration requires a single op amp, three-shunt configuration requires three op amps. For compatibility purposes, one of them is common to both basic configurations.
Board description UM1036 With the default values this gives: ● = 1.57 V BIAS ● Maximal voltage of V = 1.56 V SIGN ● G = 5.38 ● = 3.90 ● Maximum current amplifiable without distortion is 16 A.
