STEVAL-IPMnM1S motor control power board based on the SLLIMM™-nano
SMD of MOSFET IPMs
Introduction
The STEVAL-IPMnM1S is a compact motor drive power board based on SLLIMM-nano SMD (small low-loss intelligent molded
module) product (STIPNS1M50T-H). It provides an affordable and easy-to-use solution for driving high power motors in a wide
range of applications such as power white goods, air conditioning, compressors, power fans and 3-phase inverters for motor
drives in general.
The IPM itself consists of six MOSFETs, three high voltage half-bridge gate driver ICs and a wide range of features like
undervoltage lockout, smart shutdown, internal temperature sensor and NTC, overcurrent protection and internal op-amp.
The main characteristics of this evaluation board are small size, minimal BOM and high efficiency. It features an interface circuit
(BUS and VCC connectors), bootstrap capacitors, snubber capacitor, hardware short-circuit protection, fault event signal and
temperature monitoring. It is designed to work in single- or three-shunt configuration and with triple current sensing options:
three dedicated on-board op-amps, op-amps embedded on MCU or single internal IPM op-amp. The Hall/Encoder part
completes the circuit.
The system is designed to achieve accurate and fast conditioning of current feedback to satisfy the typical requirements for field
oriented control (FOC).
The STEVAL-IPMnM1S is compatible with ST's control board based on STM32, providing a complete platform for motor control.
