評估板TLE9879 EVALKIT

This board is intended to provide a simple, easy-to-use tool for getting familiar with Infineon’s embedded power IC TLE9879. It contains the TLE9879 and its typical application circuit including three MOSFET half bridges to instantly drive a BLDC motor. The board is ready to connect with car supply or similar and has an implemented Segger for debugging on board.

All relevant chip pins are connected to pin headers at the edge of the board, where signals can be probed or applied directly (see Table 2, Table 3). By different jumper settings LEDs can be put in parallel to several ports and selected functions can be configured (see Table 6). Push button switches allow easy hardware reset and triggering of the MON input. There are intended test points for all six gate driver pins, for measurements at the shunt, VDDC and several ground points on the evaluation board (see Figure 3). For testing analog signals ADC inputs can be varied by the potentiometer on board. Three phases of motor current can be picked off at a terminal block to connect a DC brushless motor.

The evaluation board can be operated by standard laboratory equipment as power supply and LIN communication are working via banana jacks. Debugging and UART are provided via an USB interface combined with onboard Segger J-Link (XMC4200). Bidirectional level shifters ensure that the respective XMC pins are in tristate as long as UART or debugging is not used.

In case the user wants to use another ISP than the onboard Segger the SWD interface can be used. To program the TLE9879 via LIN there is an additional uIO BSL interface (see Table 4).

There is a battery LED that indicates that the board is connected to supply the right way. Otherwise reverse polarity protection secures the board from damage by cross connection.
