Description

The goal of the STEVAL-IHM028V2 product

evaluation board is to present a universal, fully

tested and populated design consisting of a 3-

phase inverter bridge based on the 600 V, 17 A

intelligent power module STGIPS20C60. The IPM

itself consists of short-circuit rugged IGBTs with

negative temperature co-efficiency. It also

contains a wide range of auxiliary functions like

undervoltage lockout and smart shutdown.

Thanks to these advanced characteristics, the

system has been specifically designed to achieve

accurate and fast conditioning of the current

feedback, matching the typical requirements for

field oriented control (FOC).

This board can be used to evaluate a wide range

of applications such as HVAC (air conditioners),

power white goods and high-end single-phase

power tools.
