4.2.1 Board Check

Figure 1-1 shows the board connections.

TIDA-010954 Board Connections for Low-Voltage Tests Figure 4-1 Board Connections for Low-Voltage Tests

The test sequence follows:

  1. Connect the negative terminal of the differential probe to TP13 and the positive terminal to TP10. Connect the second differential probe to TP27 and TP12, respectively. Connect the Rogowski coil around transformer T1 secondary side wire.
  2. Set CYCLO_LAB define in cinv_settings.h to 1
  3. Build and download firmware to the controller and run
  4. Import the <DPSDK>\solutions\tida_010954\source\debug\lab1.txt file to the expressions view
  5. Set following variables cyclo_iref_g = 0.0, cyclo_d1 = 0.47, cyclo_d2 = 0.0
  6. Set cyclo_run = 1, observe that cyclo_started become 1
  7. Observe the oscilloscope waveforms. The primary side needs to have clean, 3 level waveforms with narrow positive and negative pulses. The secondary side needs to have 2 level waveforms, the current needs to have triangular waveforms.
