Introduction
The EVAL-IMM101T Starter Kit is designed to give an easy-to-use motor drive solution based on the Infineon's
IMM101T Smart IPM.The board is equipped with all assembly groups for sensorless field oriented control (FOC).
It contains a single-phase AC-connector, EMI filter, rectifier and 3-phase output for connecting the motor. The
power stage also contains source shunt for current sensing and a voltage divider for DC-link voltage
measurement.
The features of this board are described in the design feature chapter of this document, whereas the remaining
paragraphs provide information which helps users to copy, modify and qualify the design for production
according to their own specific requirements.
Environmental conditions were considered in the design of the EVAL-IMM101T. The design was tested as
described in this document but not qualified regarding safety requirements or manufacturing and operation over
the whole operating temperature range or lifetime. The boards provided by Infineon are only subject to
functional testing.
Evaluation boards are not subject to the same procedures as regular products regarding Returned Material
Analysis (RMA), Process Change Notification (PCN) and Product Discontinuation (PD). Evaluation boards are
intended to be used under laboratory conditions and only by trained specialists.
The combination of the MCE2.0 iMOTION™ motion control engine integrated into IMM101T devices, toghether
with the gate driver and six MOSFETs offers a complete motor drive system in a compact 12 x 12mm

surface
mount package, minimizing external components count and PCB area.
