Figure 4-1 shows a system block diagram of this reference design.
The motor control board has functional groups that
enable a complete motor drive system. The following is a list of the blocks on the
board and their functions. Figure 4-2 shows the top view of the board and different blocks of the TIDA-010250 PCB.
- AC input connectors and filter
- Auxiliary power supply
- MCU controller
- Motor inverter output
connector
- Phase current sensing with shunt
resistors
- Hall or QEI interface
- USART serial communication
TI recommends taking the following precautions when using the board:
- Do not touch any part of the board or components
connected to the board when the board is energized.
- Use the AC Mains or wall power supply to power
the kit. TI recommends an isolation AC source.
- Do not touch any part of the board, the kit, or
the assembly when energized. Though the power module heat sink is isolated from
the board, high-voltage switching generates some capacitive coupled voltages
over the heat sink body.
- Control Ground can be hot.
