48V 3-Phase Inverter with Shunt-based In-line Motor Phase Current Sensing Reference Design

Description

The TIDA-00913 reference design realizes a 48V/10A 3-phase GaN inverter with precision in-line shunt-based phase current sensing for accurate control of precision drives such as servo drives. One of the largest challenges with in-line shunt-based phase current sensing is the high common-mode voltage transients during PWM switching. The INA240 bi-directional current-sense amplifier overcomes this problem using enhanced PWM rejection. The reference design provides an output voltage from 0 to 3.3V: scaled to ±16.5A with 1.65V mid voltage for high phase-current accuracy over the entire temperature range. The TIDA-00913 offers a TI BoosterPack compatible interface to connect to a C2000 MCU LaunchPad™ development kit for easy performance evaluation.

Features
  • Wide input voltage range 12V to 60V 3-phase GaN inverter with 7Arms output current per phase and non-isolated phase current sensing.Precision in-line phase current sensing with 5mΩ shunt: ±16.5A full scale range and ±10A nominal range.High accuracy phase current sensing over the temperature range from -25 °C to 85 °C. Uncalibrated accuracy System cost reduction using a non-isolated current sense amplifier INA240 with superior AC common mode rejection operating up to PWM switching frequencies up to 100kHz.Reduced BOM and easy layout due to the INA240 bi-directional: zero-drift current sense amplifier that directly interfaces to a 3.3V ADC.TI BoosterPack compatible interface with 3.3V I/O for easy performance evaluation with a C2000 MCU LaunchPad™ development kit.
