Technical Details
This board was designed as built to be used in high-voltage tests where galvanic isolation was required. It was able to provide up to 12 synchronized PWM outputs for half-bridges, with adjustable parameters. It also provided various analog and digital inputs/outputs for monitoring and control purposes, as well as running PID controllers. It was used as a base development board for high-voltage motor controllers and power converters. The IR sensor present was used to receive commands from a standard TV remote control for basic operations during testing. Whenever data logging was required, it was streamed via the isolated UART interface to a laptop (floating ground).
