Introduction

3 Introduction
The EVAL-M1-301F evaluation board is a part of the iMOTION™ modular application design kit for drives
(iMOTION™ MADK). In order to run a motor, the mating power board is required to interface this evaluation
board.
The MADK platform is intended for use with various power stages with different control boards. These boards
can easily be interfaced through the 20-pin iMOTION™ MADK M1, or the 30-pin iMOTION™ MADK M3 interface
connector. This board is equipped with a 20-pin M1 connector and is intended for running a single motor.
This evaluation board is designed to give comprehensible solutions of sensorless control of permanent magnet
motors over the full speed range. It provides Hall-sensor based or sensorless controls applying 3-phase and
type 3 of 2-phase modulation. PC interface is via a micro-USB connector and the on-board debugger is
galvanically isolated. The PC interface provides a UART connection to the MCE as well as a serial wire debug
(SWD) channel to the MCU.
The EVAL-M1-301F evaluation board is available from Infineon. The features of this board are described in the
main features chapter of this document, whereas the remaining paragraphs provide information to enable the
customers to copy, modify and qualify the design for production according to their own specific requirements.
Environmental conditions were considered in the design of the EVAL-M1-301F, but the board is not qualified in
terms of safety requirements or manufacturing and operation over the entire operating temperature range or
lifetime. The boards provided by Infineon are subject to functional testing only.
Evaluation boards are not subject to the same procedures as regular products regarding returned material
analysis (RMA), process change notification (PCN) and product discontinuation (PD). Evaluation boards are
intended to be used under laboratory conditions by technical specialists only.
Figure 1 shows the evaluation board EVAL-M1-301F. This document explains the features and details of this board
as well as the control IC, IMC301A-F064.
