Overview

This document provides a comprehensive overview of Infineon's customer evaluation kits for PROFET™ +2 12V, PROFET™ Load Guard 12V, and PROFET™ Wire Guard 12V high-side switches. It details the modular hardware architecture, consisting of universal motherboards (V2 and V3) and various daughterboards designed for 1-channel, 2-channel, and 4-channel devices in TSDSO-14 and TSDSO-24 packages. The manual covers setup procedures for evaluating resistive, capacitive, and inductive loads, and provides instructions for using the Configuration Wizard software via the Infineon Developer Center. Additionally, it describes specialized hardware like the PROFET™ +2 12V Arduino H-bridge evaluation board and Grade0 customer evaluation boards.

Use Cases

  • Evaluation of 12V automotive high-side switch functionality
  • Testing resistive, capacitive, and inductive load switching
  • Prototyping with Arduino-compatible power switch shields
  • Software-based configuration and diagnostic monitoring of smart power switches
  • Thermal and performance evaluation of Grade0 automotive components
