FRDMGD3160HBIEVM: GD3160 Half-Bridge Evaluation Kit

FRDMGD3160HBIEVM is a half-bridge evaluation kit populated with two GD3160 single channel IGBT/SiC MOSFET gate drive devices. The kit includes the Freedom KL25Z microcontroller hardware for interfacing a PC installed with Flex GUI software for communication to the SPI registers on the MC33GD3160 gate drive devices in either daisy chain or standalone configuration.

The GD3160 translator board is used to translate 3.3 V signals to 5.0 V signals between the MCU and GD3160 gate drivers. The evaluation kit is designed to connect to a single phase of a Hybrid Pack IGBT or SiC MOSFET module for half-bridge evaluations and applications development.

• Compatible with HybridPack IGBT or SiC MOSFET module
• Flex GUI available for use with kit
• Daisy chain SPI interface configurability
• Easy to configure jumper options
• SPI configurable register options using Flex GUI
• Double pulse and short circuit evaluations
• Fiber optic connections for external PWM inputs optional, not included
