MCT8316ZTEVM Evaluation Module
ABSTRACT
This document is provided with the MCT8316ZT customer evaluation module (EVM) as a supplement to the
MCT8316Zx data sheet (
MCT8316Z Three-Phase Sensored-Trapezoidal BLDC Motor Driver Data Sheet ). This
User's Guide details the hardware implementation of the EVM and how to setup and power the board.
Note
The MCT8316ZTEVM comes automatically populated with and configured for the MCT8316Z0T. It is
also compatible for the MCT8316Z0R variant (see
MCT8316Z0R Compatibility ), but the user will need
to replace the MCT8316Z0T with the MCT8316Z0R for compatibility.
