Infineon Technologies AURIX™ TC3xx Motor Control Application Kit

Infineon Technologies AURIX™ TC3xx Motor Control Application Kit (KIT_A2G_TC387_MOTORCTR) is a reference design for smart motor control based on the TC387 32-Bit Microcontroller along with the TLE9180D-31QK 3-Phase Gate Driver and the TLF35584 Functional Safety PMIC. With CO2 reduction becoming a higher priority in the industrial, consumer, and automotive fields, mechanical motor drives are gradually being replaced by smart, electrically controlled motors. Aiming to fulfill this expanding segment, the AURIX TC3xx Motor Control Application Kit offers an easy and cost-effective entry door for developing motor control applications.

The Infineon Technologies AURIX TC3xx Motor Control Application Kit includes a 3-Phase Motor Control Power Board equipped with all of the assembly circuits required for sensor-based and sensorless-based Field-Oriented Control (FOC), as well as Block Commutation Control. Also included is the TC387 Application Kit with touchscreen, a BLDC motor with incremental encoder, power supply, and pre-flashed software.
