About this document
Scope and purpose
This user manual provides an overview of the evaluation board EVAL-M1-CTF620N3 including its main features,
key data, pin assignments and mechanical dimensions.
EVAL-M1-CTF620N3 is an evaluation board as part of the iMOTION™ Modular Application Design Kit. This power
board including a 3-phase CIPOS™ Tiny Intelligent Power Module (IPM) for motor drive application. In
combination with the control board equipped with the M1 20pin interface connector such as EVAL-M1-101T, it
features and demonstrates Infineon’s CIPOS™ Tiny IPM technology and Advanced Motion Control Engine (MCE
2.0) technology for permanent magnet motors drive over the full speed range.
This evaluation board EVAL-M1-CTF620N3 was developed to support customers during their first steps
designing applications with CIPOS™ Tiny IPM and running any permanent magnet motor via sensorless
sinusoidal control.
Intended audience
This user manual is intended for all technical specialists who know motor control and high power electronics
converter and this board is intended to be used under laboratory conditions.
