Infineon – iMOTION™ motor drive ICs starter kit for iMOTION™ design platform

EVAL-IMOTION2GO is a full motor-control system starter kit featuring IMC101T-T038 controller, an inverter IPM and a brushless direct current (BLDC) motor load. It provides a ready-to-use hardware setup for using the iMOTION™ design platform, MCEDesigner and MCEWizard. The evaluation board measures 19×70 mm and is powered by a PCB USB output. This kit is pre-programmed with the latest version of the iMOTION™ firmware and the script-based demo which is running the small motor mounted on the board. As soon as the kit is powered up through the USB slot, the demo will start and periodically vary the speed of the motor and alternate its rotating directions.The MCEWizard and MCEDesigner PC development tools are required for configuring, controlling, tuning and monitoring.
