TIDA-010025: TIDA-010025 and C2000 for semikron inverter control

Part Number: TIDA-010025
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LAUNCHXL-F28379D

Tool/software:

I'm a research intern at the Center for Electromechanics at UT Austin. We are currently working on upgrading our micro grid to operate in a "plug and play" setting to operate in grid following and forming mode, VFD drive, power amplification, and motor drive. Our plan is to upgrade our semikron controllers that are controlled using National Instrument controllers paired with labview. We were looking into the C2000 microcontrollers, specifically the TIDA-010025 for three phase inverter controlI want to confirm the compatibility between our SKIIP 4 Semikron and the TIDA-010025. From my understanding the TIDA-010025 is just a reference design, but if we go through with building our own configuration is there a way to guarantee compatibility before hand? 

  • Hi Angel,

    Thank you for reaching out to us on the question.

    You are correct that TIDA-010025 is just a reference design. Chapter 3.1.3 "Controller Interface" of the Design Guide is a description of the interface to the LAUNCHXL-F28379D LaunchPad, with Table 3 through Table 6 listed all the signals used. All the digital / logic signals are 3.3V level and the analog feedback signals for ADC input are in 0-3V range. Chapter 2.3 has details on the related circuits of these signals.

    We are not familiar with the SKII 4 Semikron controller. You can list and check the related signals' specifications and requirements of it for the compatibility checking.

    Should you encounter any questions in the process, please let us know.

    Best regards,

    Jerome Shan
