EPC9196: 35 A GaN 3-Phase Motor Drive Inverter Eval Board

EPC9196 – 35 A Peak 3-Phase Motor Drive Inverter Evaluation Board

EPC9196 Invertor Board

The EPC9196 evaluation board is a 3-phase BLDC motor drive inverter board featuring the EPC2304 GaN FET 11 (5.0 mΩ maximum RDS(on), 200 V maximum device voltage) intended for 150 V batteries. The EPC9196 can deliver up to 35 Apk (25 ARMS) maximum output current. The board supports PWM switching frequencies up to 150 kHz in motor drive applications.

The EPC9196 contains all the necessary critical functions circuits to support a complete motor drive inverter including regulated auxiliary power rails for housekeeping supplies, voltage, and temperature sense, accurate current sense, and protection functions.

The EPC9196 mates with an assortment of compatible controllers, supported by various manufacturers leveraging existing resources for quick development purposes, that can quickly be configured as a motor drive inverter.

Features

  • 3-phase inverter based with wide input DC voltage ranging from 30 V to 170 V
  • Dimensions: L x W = 130 x 100 mm (including connector)
