EVAL-M3-CM615PN User Manual

iMOTION™ Modular Application Design Kit

About this document

Scope and purpose

This user manual provides an overview of the evaluation board Eval-M3-CM615PN including its main features,

key data, pin assignments and mechanical dimensions.

Eval-M3-CM615PN is an evaluation board as part of the iMOTION™ Modular Application Design Kit. This power

board includes a PFC integrated 3-phase CIPOS™ Mini Intelligent Power Module (IPM) for motor drive

application. In combination with the control board equipped with the M3 30pin interface connector such as

EVAL-M3-102T, it features and demonstrates Infineon’s CIPOS™ Mini IPM technology and Advanced Motion

Control Engine (MCE 2.0) technology for permanent magnet motors drive over the full speed range.

The inverter section has 600V of voltage and 15A of current rating, and the PFC section has 650V of voltage and

30A of current rating. It is optimized to major home appliances like air conditioners and low power motor dirve

application with high frequency switching operation of power factor correction.

This evaluation board Eval-M3-CM615PN was developed to support customers during their first steps designing

applications with CIPOS™ Mini PFC integrated IPM IFCM15P60GD and running any permanent magnet motor via

sensorless sinusoidal control.

Intended audience

This user manual is intended for all technical specialists who know motor control and high power electronics

converter and this board is intended to be used under laboratory conditions.
