Infineon - Evaluation board of Integrated Power Device (IPD) Protect

Infineon – Evaluation board of Integrated Power Device (IPD) Protect

The board implements a single-ended parallel-resonant (SEPR) converter for induction heating application in order to demonstrate the functionalities of the IEWS20R5135IPB during the typical operating conditions of an induction heating cooker.

Features:

Input voltage: 200 – 250 Vac
Integrated control via Infineon XMC™ 1302
Easy to measure waveforms of IPD Protect for best understanding of device behavior
Optimized commutation loop
External connection of resonant coil for an easy exchange or replacement
Easy to replace the IPD Protect device
Direct access to the device for thermal camera measurements

Benefits:

This board also represents a design recommendation of the IPD Protect. Care has been taken to optimize the layout of the PCB in order to guarantee clean signals and reproducible behavior of the device in all operating conditions.
