Now at Mouser: Infineon’s iMOTION IMC100 Motor Control ICs Integrate Hardware and Algorithm for Variable Speed Drives

July 5, 2018 – Mouser Electronics, Inc., the authorized global distributor with the newest semiconductors and electronic components, is now stocking the IMC100 series, a new family of iMOTION™ motor control ICs from Infineon Technologies. These ready-to-use solutions for high-efficiency, variable-speed drives integrate both the required hardware and control algorithm for a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM).

        The Infineon IMC100 series motor control ICs, available from Mouser Electronics, are based on Infineon’s proven Motion Control Engine (MCE), which implements field-oriented control (FOC) and eliminates software coding from the development of motor control algorithms. The FOC uses single- or leg-shunt current feedback and space-vector PWM with sinusoidal signals to achieve high energy efficiency. The ICs also provide protection features like over- and under-voltage, over-current, rotor lock to safeguard the motor and power stage. The IMC100 devices provide highly flexible communication interfaces, including UART, SPI, I2C, analog input, frequency input, and CAN.

        The IMC100 series ICs are supported by the iMOTION™ Modular Application Design Kit for motor control (iMOTION MADK), EVAL-M1-101T evaluation control board, and EVAL-M3-102T evaluation board. The iMOTION MADK is a compact and flexible evaluation system that provides a scalable design platform for three-phase motor drives ranging from 20W to 300W. The EVAL-M1-101T evaluation control board and EVAL-M3-102T evaluation board connect to the iMOTION MADK and are capable of providing three-phase modulation or type 3 of two-phase modulation.

        The Infineon iMOTION IMC100 series ICs are ideal for motor control applications in home appliances, air conditioning units, fans, and pumps. To learn more, visit www.mouser.com/infineon-imotion-imc100.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
