PFC current feedback configuration
Figure 19 depicts IPFC- current feedback sensing circuity on EVAL-M3-302F evaluation board. Please note that
the default external amplification gain is less than 1 for current sense in this evaluation board.

Based on this calculation, and the R

in EVAL-M3-CM615PN is 30 m
Ω
, the current input for the MADK
combination of EVAL-M3-302F and EVAL-M3-CM615PN is 27.69 mV/A. Please use the same procedure to
calculate the current input for other combinations of MADK boards, and enter it into MCEWizard.
