Introduction
The evaluation board
EVAL-IH-R5IPB-A-V1
was developed as a test platform for the IEWS20R5135IPB. It
replicates a complete, almost stand-alone, solution for induction heating based on SEPR converter. This
introductory section provides an overview of the potential of the evaluation board and lists the components
included in the delivery.
2.1
Purpose of the board
The purpose of the evaluation board shown in Figure 1 is to have one universal test platform for the
IEWS20R5135IPB. It allows users to evaluate the advantages provided by the intelligent protection mechanisms.
For detailed information about the device, refer to Application notes [1].
