EVAL-M7-HVIGBT-PFCINV user guide
Evaluation power board with M7 connector
About this document
This user guide provides an overview of the evaluation board EVAL-M7-HVIGBT-PFCINV, including its main
features, key-technical data, pin assignments, and mechanical dimensions.
The board name, EVAL-M7-HVIGBT-PFCINV, contains two different boards — EVAL-M7-HVIGBT-PFCINV1
and EVAL-M7-HVIGBT-PFCINV4. The last number 1 in the board name represents a power factor control
(PFC) frequency of 100 kHz, and the number 4 represents a PFC frequency of 40 kHz. Every mention of EVAL-
M7-HVIGBT-PFCINV includes both EVAL-M7-HVIGBT-PFCINV1 and EVAL-M7-HVIGBT-PFCINV4 boards unless
specified otherwise.
Scope and purpose
EVAL-M7-HVIGBT-PFCINV includes Infineon's TRENCHSTOP™ IGBTs. It features and demonstrates Infineon's
TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT technology for PFC and inverter circuitry in hard-switching conditions. The
TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT optimizes switching and conduction losses to reach a high efficiency. The IGBTs used on
this board are in D
The evaluation board EVAL-M7-HVIGBT-PFCINV was developed to support users during their first steps in
designing applications with running any permanent magnet motor via sensor-less sinusoidal field-oriented
control.
Intended audience
This evaluation board is intended for all technical specialists who are familiar with motor control and power
electronics converter systems.
Evaluation board
EVAL-M7-HVIGBT-PFCINV is meant to be used during the design-in process for evaluating and measuring the
board characteristic curves, and checking datasheet specifications. It is intended only to be used under
laboratory conditions.
Note:
The printed circuit board (PCB) and auxiliary circuits are NOT optimized for final customer design.
