Motor Control and PFC Developer's Kit Quick Start Guide
The Motor Control and PFC Developer's Kit provides a great way to begin learning about digital motor
control. The kit contains a motherboard that can accept any of the C2000 series controlCARDs. This
board is divided into a power factor correction (PFC) stage and two identical three-phase inverter stages.
Features of the Motor Control and PFC Developer's Kit board include:
Sensorless field-oriented control of two permanent magnet motors using the Texas Instruments
DRV8402 IPM module
PFC provides current-shaping of the AC input and regulates the DCbus
Closed-loop digital control with feedback using the C2000's on-chip PWM and ADC peripherals
Onboard isolated JTAG emulation
Over-current and over-voltage protection for the PFC stage and over-current protection for each
inverter section
Isolated USB to serial communication available for host-control
Hardware developer's package which includes schematics, bill of materials, Gerber files, etc.
This equipment may generate voltages and currents that can be
injurious to humans, and must be used with caution. The user
must employ appropriate safeguards to avoid serious injury.
