    • Three-phase inverter demo boards based on ST’s SEMITOP®* modules provide customers with an effective and optimized solution for motor control.
    These boards offer designers with a complete and flexible tool. Like dedicated platforms these boards provide a solid system under all operating conditions, making them the most efficient solution.

    The SEMITOP2 and SEMITOP3 demo boards are designed to highlight the advantages of three-phase inverters obtained by using ST’s modules for motor control applications.

    The demo system is comprised of a power board and a control board (STEVAL-IHM001V1) connected through a six-in-line interface. This guarantees a very low interference level between power and signal noise, offering at the same time a flexible and highly reliable solution for reference design activities.

    The power boards work directly from the AC mains (120V or 220V - thanks to on board voltage doubler) or DC external power supply; the auxiliary low voltage supply is located on the boards and works with applications rated above 50V DC.

    The design boards are well-suited to several kinds of applications which require six-step commutation or six-signal PWM (sine wave modulation) output, including:
    3-phase AC induction motor control
    3-phase PMDC/AC or BLDC/AC (Trapezoidal Driven) motor control
    3-phase PMAC or BLAC (Sinusoidal Driven) motor control
    Single-phase and 3-phase UPS

    SEMITOP2 board nominal power: 1000W
    SEMITOP3 board nominal power: 3000W
