Motor Control and PFC Developer’s Kit Quick Start Guide
The Motor Control and PFC Developer’s Kit provides a great way to begin learning about digital motor
control. The kit contains a motherboard that can accept any of the C2000 series controlCARDs. This
board is divided into a power factor correction (PFC) stage and two identical three-phase inverter stages.
Features of the Motor Control and PFC Developer’s Kit board include:
•
Sensorless field-oriented control of two permanent magnet motors using the Texas Instruments
DRV8402 IPM module
•
PFC provides current-shaping of the AC input and regulates the DCbus
•
Closed-loop digital control with feedback using the C2000’s on-chip PWM and ADC peripherals
•
Onboard isolated JTAG emulation
•
Over-current and over-voltage protection for the PFC stage and over-current protection for each
inverter section
•
Isolated USB to serial communication available for host-control
•
Hardware developer’s package which includes schematics, bill of materials, Gerber files, etc.
WARNING
This equipment may generate voltages and currents that can be
