The EVLPWD5T60 from STMicroelectronics is a 3-phase power board which allows engineers to evaluate the features of the PWD5T60 integrated motor driver IC.
The board supports a three- or single-shunt current sensing topology. A strip connector provides an easy interface to a microcontroller motor-control board. In addition, a 34-pin ST morpho header can be used to connect the EVLPWD5T60 board to an STM32 Nucleo MCU board through the X-NUCLEO-IHM09M1 motor-control expansion board.
Key features of the board include:
- High-voltage rail up to 400 V dc, limited by on-board bulk capacitor
- Peak output current up to 1.2 A
- Output power up to 120 W
- Input-voltage range: 9 V to 20 V
- Sensored or sensorless field-oriented control or 6-step algorithm
- Hall-effect sensor connector
- Smart shut-down over-current protection
- Bus voltage sensing
