The board at a glance
The evaluation platform was developed to help users investigate the switching behavior of SiC MOSFETs or
IGBTs, and their corresponding gate drivers using through-hole universal sockets. This board is an improved
version of the existing double-pulse platform,
efficient evaluations.
Figure 1 EVAL-PS-DP-MAIN-M5 evaluation board
The EVAL-PS-DP-MAIN-M5 evaluation board has the following features:
Through-hole universal sockets instead of solder points for the DUTs. This provides easy replacement of
•
DUTs for repetitive measurements
To reduce the lead inductance, it is recommended to reduce the leads length to a minimum.
Surface-mounted shunt resistor in parallel to coaxial shunt. It provides the freedom to choose one or the
•
other for current measurement
Supports an external controller board, XMC4800. It can provide double-pulse or constant pulse-width
•
modulated (PWM) signals, enabling wireless connectivity
Two SMA connectors on the board. This provides direct gate driver control without using an external
•
microcontroller
Test points for easy probing during measurements
•
Turn-off gate voltage can be adjusted using a 0 V to -5 V resistor
•
Bus voltage can withstand a voltage of up to 800 V
