About this document
Scope and purpose
This user guide provides an overview of the evaluation board EVAL-IKA15N65ET6 including main features, key
data, pin assignments, and mechanical dimensions.
EVAL-IKA15N65ET6 was developed to support customers in their first steps designing applications for
permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) or brushless DC machines e.g. pumps, fans, washing
machines, general purposes drives, and power tools up to 1.2 kW.
The board is fully equipped with all assembly groups required to achieve sensor-less or sensor-based, field
oriented control (FOC). To this end, various Infineon product families have been utilized, such as
TRENCHSTOP
5 IGBT in power factor correction (PFC) circuit together with a Rapid 1 silicon power diode,
TM
TRENCHSTOP
IGBT6 in inverter stage, iMOTION™ driver to control both PFC and inverter stage, XENSIV
TM
high-precision coreless current sensor to sense the current, and
Intended audience
This user guide is intended for all technical specialists who have a good knowledge of motor control and high-
power electronic converters. The board must only be used under laboratory conditions.
Evaluation board
The board is to be used during the design-in process for evaluating and measuring characteristic curves, and
for checking datasheet specifications.
Note:

PFC stage The EVAL-IKA15N65ET6 board contains a boost PFC stage to reduce the reactive power and total harmonic distortion (THD) in the grid. The PFC function on the evaluation board is performed by TRENCHSTOP™ 5 WR6 IGBT IKWH30N65WR6 combined with the silicon power diode IDW30E65D1. -
Page 21: Current Sensing
TLI4971 is a high-precision sensor for AC and DC measurements with analog interface and two fast overcurrent detection outputs. Infineon's well-established and robust monolithic Hall technology enables accurate and highly linear measurement of currents with full scale up to ±120 A. Negative effects such as saturation and hysteresis that are common in open loop sensors using flux concentration techniques are thus avoided. -
