iMOTION™ development tools and software
The iMOTION™
development tool installers for MCEDesigner and MCEWizard are available for download via the
Infineon iMOTION
TM
website (
http://www.infineon.com/imotion-software
). All supported tools and software
variants are listed there. Please visit this page periodically to check for tool/software updates.
The isolated on-board debugger provides the USB to UART bridge between the PC and the target iMOTION™
device with 1kV DC galvanic isolation between the motor drive system (hot side) and the PC/debugger (cold
side). The on-board debugger uses the SEGGER J-Link driver for UART communication with IMC101T-F048. The
J-Link driver will be installed during the MCEDesigner installation. In case the driver is not installed properly,
please go to
to download and install the latest J-Link “Software and Documentation
pack for Windows.”

MCEWizard setup overview
After installing the MCEWizard, please read the MCEWizard user guide first. Figure 5 shows the welcome page of
MCEWizard.

For a new user, suggest using this evaluation board initially with a released MADK power board, as they always
have a tested parameter file available on the MADK website. The default power board in this user guide is EVAL-
M1-05-65D as shown in Figure 5.
The iMOTION™ MADK system enables users to easily test different combinations of control and power boards
with their motors. The user should be familiar with the system-level parameters related to the motor used.
There is a very limited number of parameters that are specific to the control board or power board hardware.
Table 3 provides the MCEWizard setup overview for hardware-related parameters. Similar tables will be
available in the User Guide of the specific power board. Combinations of this table and the corresponding table
of the power board provides sufficient information to set up the MADK-based motor drive system in the
shortest time.
