EiceDRIVER™ Power EVAL-2EP130R-VD Evaluation Board User Guide
User guide for the EVAL-2EP130R-VD board, evaluating the 2EP1xxR family of full-bridge transformer drivers for isolated IGBT and SiC MOSFET gate driver power supplies.
Overview
This document describes the EVAL-2EP130R-VD evaluation board designed to validate the Infineon 2EP1xxR product family, specifically the 2EP130R full-bridge transformer driver IC. The board demonstrates isolated gate driver power supplies for IGBTs and SiC MOSFETs using a voltage doubler topology to provide positive and negative output rails. It supports adjustments for operating frequency (50 kHz to 695 kHz), duty cycle (10% to 50%), and overcurrent protection levels. The guide includes detailed schematics, PCB layout diagrams, a bill of materials, and performance measurements for dual-rail isolated supplies.
Use Cases
- Design and evaluation of isolated power supplies for high-side and low-side gate drivers
- Parameter adjustment testing for 2EP1xxR transformer driver ICs
- Development of compact power supply solutions for industrial drives and power converters
