EVAL-M1-IM523 user guide
iMotion™ modular application design kit

About this document

Scope and purpose
This user guide provides an overview of the evaluation board EVAL-M1-IM523 including its main features, key
data, pin assignments, and mechanical dimensions.
This evaluation board has been developed to provide initial support to customers in designing motor drive
applications for major home appliances such as air conditioners, pumps, fans, and other variable-speed drives.
The EVAL-M1-IM523 is part of the iMOTION™ modular application design kit (MADK). Together with a control
board equipped with the M1 20-pin interface connector, such as the EVAL-M1-101T, it features and
demonstrates the Infineon CIPOS™ Mini intelligent power module (IPM) technology and advanced motion
control engine (MCE 2.0) technology for permanent magnet motor drives. EVAL-M1-IM523 is based on the
IM523-X6A CIPOS™ Mini IPM. The IM523-X6A is designed to control 3-phase AC motors and permanent magnet
motors in variable-speed drives. It works with a voltage of 600 V and provides a current rating of 17 A.
Intended audience
This user guide is intended for all technical specialists who know motor control and low-power electronic
converters. The evaluation board is intended to be used under laboratory conditions.
Evaluation board
This evaluation board is to be used during the design-in process for evaluating and measuring characteristic
curves, and for checking datasheet specifications.
Note:
PCB and auxiliary circuits are NOT optimized for final customer design.
