The STEVAL-MKI242A is an adapter board designed to facilitate the evaluation of MEMS devices in the ST1VAFE6AX product family. The board offers an effective solution for fast system prototyping and device evaluation directly within the user’s own application.
The EVLPWD-FAN-PUMP evaluation board for the PWD5T60 motor driver power stage from STMicroelectronics supports flexible, ready-to-use control methods, and so helps to accelerate the development of reliable, compact and efficient fans and pumps.
The EVLPWD-FAN-PUMP board features the PWD5T60 and an STM32G0 microcontroller based on an Arm® Cortex®-M0+ core, enabling field-oriented control (FOC) or six-step control of permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) and brushless dc (BLDC) motors. The board offers a choice of single- or triple-shunt current sensing. Because the PWD5T60 is highly integrated, it has enabled STMicroelectronics to implement the board’s motor power stage in a small circular form factor, making it ideal for use in fans and pumps. It also includes a power-supply circuit which provides 12 V and 3.3 V supply voltages for the application, with a complete ac line filter at the input stage.
The EVLPWD-FAN-PUMP includes built-in bus-voltage detection to help to take advantage of the safety design of the PWD5T60, which provides over- and under-voltage lockout protection for each bootstrap circuit to prevent unsafe or inefficient operation.
The PWD5T60 is also robust, and features shoot-through protection with interlock and preset default dead time, providing fail-safe protection against shoot-through currents. Additionally, the PWD5T60 withstands voltage drops below ground.
The board is ready to use and runs the FOC and 6-step control firmware included in the X-CUBE-MCSDK motor control software development kit, which is available free of charge from the ST website.
The EVSPIN32G06Q1S1 board from STMicroelectronics is a complete three-phase inverter based on the STSPIN32G0601 controller, which integrates a three‑phase 600 V gate driver and an Arm® Cortex®-M0+ microcontroller. It is suitable for loads up to around 250 W, and drawing a 1 Arms phase current.
The power stage features STGD6M65DF2 IGBTs, but can be populated with any IGBT or power MOSFET in a DPAK or powerFLAT 8 x 8 HV package. The board has a single-shunt sensing topology, and supports both field-oriented control and six‑step control algorithms in either sensored or sensorless mode. This means that the board can drive permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs) and brushless dc (BLDC) motors.
The evaluation board is compatible with a wide input-voltage range from 35 V ac/50 V dc to 280 V ac/400 V dc. It includes a power-supply stage based on the VIPER06XS offline power converter in flyback configuration to generate the +15 V and +3.3 V supply voltage required by the application.
