IGBT Power module evaluation kit - Semitop2 power board
Introduction
The Semitop2 evaluation board STEVAL-IHM011V1 is a complete platform to evaluate
STMicroelectronics power module devices (Semitop 2). Based on a cost effective, flexible
and open design, it is an evaluation platform compatible with the latest STMicroelectronics
microcontroller based solution. It includes the STG3P2M10N60B IGBT Power Module up to
10 amps, 600 voltage (see
). The STEVAL-IHM011V1 features a motor control
connector (MC-Connector) and hardware features for developing motor control applications
including hardware protection features such as current and thermal protection.
