STMicroelectronics STEVAL-CTM009V1 STripFET Evaluation Kit

STMicroelectronics STEVAL-CTM009V1 STripFET Evaluation Kit is designed to demonstrate the capabilities of Power MOSFETs based on STripFET™ F7 technology. The 100V STripFET™ F7 devices (STH31xN10F7) are ideal for low voltage (up to 48V), high current applications such as forklifts, golf carts, and power tools. The STEVAL-CTM009V1 Evaluation Kit includes the STEVAL-CTM004V1 Power Board, STEVAL-CTM005V1 Bulk Capacitor Board, STEVAL-CTM006V1 Driver Board, and the STEVAL-CTM008V1 Current Sensing Board. The Boards have been pre-assembled to build an inverter power stage for three-phase motors. The STEVAL-CTM004V1 Power Board features an Insulated Metal Substrate (IMS), NTCs for thermal protection, and decoupling gate resistors for each power MOSFET. This Power Board is designed to host ST devices in the H²PAK-6 package. The STEVAL-CTM006V1 Driver Board includes L6491 Gate Drivers to drive the power MOSFETs and integrated comparator for protections. The ST Motor Control Connector on the Driver Board allows the STEVAL-CTM009V1 Kit to interface with other ST MCU Motor Control Boards (not included). The STEVAL-CTM005V1 Bulk Capacitor Board is used to connect the 48V_DC power source, such as a battery, to manage the ripple current. The STEVAL-CTM008V1 Current Sensing Board allows monitoring of isolated current and DC bus voltage. The internal Voltage Reference (VREF) can be overridden by providing an external V_REF source.
