EVAL-M1-101T User Manual

iMOTION™ Modular Application Design Kit

Getting Started with EVAL-M1-101T

iMOTION™ MADK system enables users to easily test different combination of control and power board with

their motors. User should be familiar with the system level parameters which are related to the motor used.

There is a very limited number of parameters which are specific to the control board or power board hardware.

Table 9 provides the MCEWizard setup overview for hardware related parameters. Similar tables will be

available in each power board’s Application Note. Combination of this table and the corresponding table of the

power board provides enough information to setup the MADK-based motor drive system in shortest time.
