Part Number: TIDM-BIDIR-400-12
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320F28035, CONTROLSUITE

Hello, Team,

I’d like to ask about the reference design, “TIDM-BIDIR-400-12.”

The below design materials about above converter on the website, www.ti.com/.../TIDM-BIDIR-400-12, is provided, and I’d like to produce this converter experimentally. However, I assume that the microcontroller board which is based on TMS320F28035 and is in the photographs and the movie is not included in the bill of Materials.

Therefore, I’d like to know whether the microcontroller board is sold or not. And if it is sold, I’d like to know the part number of the microcontroller board.

I appreciate your every support.

Best Regards,
Takumi

Hello Takumi,

You are correct, the controlCARD for this ref design is not included in the BOM. The link below is for the controlCARD, but as you can see it is currently out of stock.

Dear Gus,

Thank you for answering my question. Your information was exactly what I needed, and I assume that I may be able to get the controlCARD, based on my investigations.

By the way, I’d like to know the below additional information.

The names of the program files which must be written to the controlCARD on the Converter
The directories where the above program files are saved
The instruments which I need prepare for writing the programs to the controlCARD, the part numbers, and the manufactures
The methods to write the programs to the controlCARD

If you have information about above contents, I hope you will share them.

I appreciate your every support.

Best Regards,

Takumi
