About this document

Scope and purpose
This application note provides an overview of the evaluation board iMOTION2go including its main features,
key technical data, pin assignments and mechanical dimensions.
iMOTION2go is a full motor-control system starter kit including an IMC101T-T038 controller, an inverter IPM and
a brushless direct current (BLDC) motor load, which provides a ready-to-use hardware setup for using the
iMOTION
design platform, MCEDesigner and MCEWizard. It also comprises other necessary
TM
software/parameter configurations required for directly running a motor with the iMOTION
motor-tuning
TM
tool, MCEDesigner, to evaluate all the features of the iMOTION
design ecosystem.
TM
The IMOTION2go starter kit was developed to support customers during their first steps designing applications
with the iMOTION
design ecosystem. It also can be used by engineers to debug their script code.
TM
The starter kit iMOTION2go is not intended to be used for real motor-control application designs such as
a home appliance and/or light industrial application field.
Intended audience
This application note is intended for all electrical engineers who are interested in evaluating Infineon iMOTION
motor-control products, in particular iMOTION tools and software. The iMOTION2go evaluation board is
intended to be used with a PC (plugged into the USB port of a PC) under no-load motor conditions.
