The general hardware architecture of the reference design kit is based on an Inverter topology suitable to efficiently drive three types of motors: "3 Phase BLDC/AC permanent magnet (in six-step mode)" , "3 phase AC induction" and "3 Phase BLAC PM motor (sinusoidal driven)" plus a plug-in control board, based on ST7FMC MCU. The inverter bridge is made by IGBT SEMITOP2 module, including mono-phase rectifier input bridge plus three phase IGBT inverter. The driving of the bridge is made by three IGBTs drivers (suited in the control board) with high side/low side integrated functionality in a single chip with also several protections. The supply of the power is implemented using the Viper, a Vertical Intelligent Power Enhanced Regulators which combines an optimized, high voltage, Vertical Power MOSFET with state-ofthe-art PWM circuitry. |
