Safety precautions
1
In addition to the precautions listed throughout this manual, please read and understand the following
statements regarding hazards associated with development systems.
Table 1
Safety precautions
Precautions
Caution: The ground potential of the EVAL-M1-36-44A system is biased to a negative DC
bus voltage potential. When measuring voltage waveform by oscilloscope, the scope’s
ground needs to be isolated. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or death, and
equipment damage. Darkened display LEDs are not an indication that capacitors have
discharged to safe voltage levels.
Caution: EVAL-M1-36-44A system contains DC bus capacitors which take time to
discharge after removal of the main supply. Before working on the drive system, wait
three minutes for capacitors to discharge to safe voltage levels. Failure to do so may
result in personal injury or death. Darkened display LEDs are not an indication that
capacitors have discharged to safe voltage levels.
Caution: Only personnel familiar with the drive and associated machinery should plan
or implement the installation, start-up and subsequent maintenance of the system.
Failure to comply may result in personal injury and/or equipment damage.
Caution: The surfaces of the drive may become hot, which may cause injury.
Caution: The EVAL-M1-36-44A board contains parts and assemblies sensitive to
electrostatic discharge (ESD). Electrostatic control precautions are required when
installing, testing, servicing or repairing this assembly. Component damage may result
if ESD control procedures are not followed. If you are not familiar with electrostatic
control procedures, refer to applicable ESD protection handbooks and guidelines.
Caution: An incorrectly applied or installed drive can result in component damage or
reduction in product lifetime. Wiring or application errors such as undersized motor,
incorrect or inadequate DC supply, or excessive ambient temperatures may result in
system malfunction.
Caution: Remove or connect the control board from or to the power drive. Wait three
minutes after removing power from the power drive to discharge the bus capacitors. Do
not attempt to service the drive until the bus capacitors have discharged to zero. Failure
to do so may result in personal injury or death.
Caution: The EVAL-M1-36-44A board is shipped with packing materials that need to be
removed prior to installation. Failure to remove all packing materials which are
unnecessary for system installation may result in overheating or abnormal operating
condition.

Introduction
2
The EVAL-M1-36-44A evaluation board is a part of the iMOTION™ Modular Application Design Kit for drives
(iMOTION™ MADK).
The MADK-platform is intended to use various power stages with different control boards. These boards can be
easily interfaced through the 20 pin iMOTION™ MADK M1 interface connector which is 20 pin connector.
This evaluation board was designed to give comprehensible solutions of a power stage featuring CIPOS™ Nano.
The board is equipped with all assembly groups for sensor less field oriented control (FOC). DC-link is provided
by direct DC-input to give direct control to DC-ripple by external source. It contains in every of three output
phases emitter-shunts for current sensing and a voltage divider for DC-link voltage measurement.
The EVAL-M1-36-44A evaluation board is available from Infineon. The features of this board are described in the
design feature chapter of this document, whereas the remaining paragraphs provide information to enable the
customers to copy, modify and qualify the design for production, according to their own specific requirements.
Environmental conditions were considered in the design of the EVAL-M1-36-44A. The design was tested as
described in this document but not qualified regarding safety requirements or manufacturing and operation
over the whole operating temperature range or lifetime. The boards provided by Infineon are subject to
functional testing only.
Evaluation boards are not subject to the same procedures as regular products regarding Returned Material
Analysis (RMA), Process Change Notification (PCN) and Product Discontinuation (PD). Evaluation boards are
intended to be used under laboratory conditions by specialists only.
