IRMCS3043
1 Introduction
1.1
Overview
IRMCS3043 is a reference design platform for complete inverter-controlled appliance motor drive applications based
on iMOTION TM chipset, up to 1.7kW continuous input power. By using the IRMCF343 digital control IC, it provides a
one-chip solution that simultaneously controls PFC frond-end circuit and one permanent magnetic (PM) AC motor
(sinusoidal back EMF) without requiring motor position sensors.
IRMCF343 is International Rectifier’s new integrated circuit device primarily designed as a one-chip solution for
sensorless permanent magnet motor control with integrated PFC in appliance applications. Unlike a traditional
microcontroller or DSP, IRMCF343 provides a built-in closed-loop sensorless control algorithm using a unique
Motion Control Engine (MCETM) for surface/interior permanent magnet motors with sinusoidal back EMF.
IRMCF343 also employs a unique single shunt current reconstruction circuit to eliminate additional analog/digital
circuitry and enables a direct shunt resistor interface to the IC. The MCETM consists of a collection of control
elements, motion peripherals, a dedicated motion control sequencer and dual port RAM to map internal signal nodes.
Motion control programming is achieved by using a dedicated graphical compiler integrated into the
MATLAB/SimulinkTM development environment. Sequencing, user interface, host communication, and upper layer
control tasks can be implemented in the 8051 high-speed 8-bit microcontroller. The 8051 microcontroller is equipped
with a JTAG port to facilitate emulation and debugging tools. Using the MCETM, IRMCF343 also achieves
simultaneous digital PFC control of the frond-end circuit that provides a regulated DC bus voltage to the inverter.
Figure 1 shows the IRMCS3043 system block diagram. In this platform, the PFC topology is implemented as the
conventional boost PFC; however, the IRMCF343 IC can also control the bridgeless PFC topology. Please contact the
iMOTION™ team for support if you need to control the bridgeless PFC using IRMCF343.
The IRMCS3043 power stage contains a Trench IGBT (IRGP4063DPbF) for the PFC and an integrated power module
(IRAMX16UP60A-2) for the inverter. The Trench IGBTs, part of IR’s iMOTION™ integrated design platform, have
lower collector-to-emitter saturation voltage (VCE(ON)) and total switching energy (ETS) than punch-through (PT)
and non-punch-through (NPT) type IGBTs. The combination of low VCE(ON) and ETS result in reduced power
dissipation and higher power density. IRAMX16UP60A-2 is an integrated power module developed and optimized for
appliance motor control.

Safety Precautions
In addition to the precautions listed throughout this manual, please read and understand the following statements
regarding hazards associated with development system.
!
!
!
!
ATTENTION: The ground potential of the IRMCS3043 system is biased to a negative DC
bus voltage potential. When measuring voltage waveform by oscilloscope, the scope ground
needs to be isolated. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or death.
Darkened display LEDs is not an indication that capacitors have discharged to safe voltage
levels.
ATTENTION: IRMCS3043 system contains dc bus capacitors which take time to discharge
after removal of main supply. Before working on drive system, wait three minutes for
capacitors to discharge to safe voltage levels. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or
death.
Darkened display LED is not an indication that capacitors have discharged to safe voltage
levels.
ATTENTION: Only personnel familiar with the drive and associated machinery should plan
or implement the installation, start-up, and subsequent maintenance of the system. Failure to
comply may result in personal injury and/or equipment damage.
ATTENTION: The surface temperatures of the drive may become hot, which may cause
injury.

ATTENTION: IRMCS3043 system contains ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) sensitive parts
and assemblies. Static control precautions are required when installing, testing, servicing or
repairing this assembly. Component damage may result if ESD control procedures are not
followed. If you are not familiar with static control procedures, reference applicable ESD
protection handbook and guideline.
ATTENTION: An incorrectly applied or installed drive can result in component damage or
reduction in product life. Wiring or application errors such as undersizing the motor, supplying
an incorrect or inadequate AC supply, or excessive ambient temperatures may result in system
malfunction.
ATTENTION: Remove and lock out power from the drive before you disconnect or
reconnect wires or perform service. Wait three minutes after removing power to discharge the
bus voltage. Do not attempt to service the drive until bus voltage has discharged to zero.
Failure to do so may result in bodily injury or death.
ATTENTION: Do not connect power factor correction inductors to drive output terminals U,
V, and W. Failure to do so may result in equipment damage or bodily injury.

2.1
Top View of IRMCS3043
WARNING: Except the RS232 connector, all the circuits are directly biased to the negative
DC bus of the power stage, and J7 JTAG, J6 D/A output and J8 digital I/O connectors are not
isolated from the power ground. If an FS2 debugger or oscilloscope is needed for debugging
or measurement, ensure it is isolated from the power ground. Otherwise, severe damage will
occur to the PCB and /or the equipment.
PCB
The PCB has two electrical layers and its size is 6.5 x 8.0 inches.
2.2
Isolation Boundary
Note that there are two different grounds on this system. The RS232 connector is isolated by opto couplers so that
users can connect a computer without isolating it. However, users should keep in mind that most parts of the hardware

have negative DC bus ground and it is necessary to isolate the scope when waveforms are measured and/or to isolate
the FS2 debugger when debugging is conducted.
2.3
IRMCF343
2.3.1 Power
IRMCF343 requires 3.3V and 1.8V. VDD1 is 3.3V used for I/O and VDD2 is 1.8V for digital logic. AVDD is
1.8V for analog and PLLVDD is for PLL. Only one source of 1.8V is shared in IRMCS3043 system. Typical
current value for 1.8V is less than 100 mA.
2.3.2 Crystal
A 4 MHz crystal is used to generate the system clock. The actual system frequency is adjustable by changing the Phase
Locked Loop configuration through Special Function Registers. For more information regarding clock, please refer to
the IRMCF34x and IRMCF37x User’s Guide.
2.3.3 Reset Circuit
IRMCF343 doesn’t require external RC circuit for reset. The reset switch is used when the JTAG debugger is started.
For more information regarding reset, please refer to the IRMCF34x and IRMCF37x User’s Guide.
2.3.4 EEPROM
Boot load takes place at power-up to load 8051 code and MCE code from an external EEPROM to internal RAM of
IRMCF343. EEPROM can be written using the MCEDesigner tool.
2.3.5 Digital I/O
Most of the digital I/O’s are connected to header J8 for the user’s convenience.
2.3.6 Analog Output
Analog D/A output channels are connected to header J6 for ease of use.
2.3.7 Motor Single-Shunt Current Feedback
IRMCF343 contains an Operational Amplifier for the single shunt motor current reconstruction circuit. Resistors and
capacitors for the amplifier circuit are placed very close to the pins. Note that, to provide better current feedback, there
is a separate trace from the shunt resistor instead of sharing a plane with negative DC bus ground.
2.3.8 PFC Current Feedback
IRMCF343 contains an Operational Amplifier for PFC current feedback. The PFC current feedback signal is
obtained through a shunt resistor that is in series with the PFC inductor and located at the negative DC bus side.
Resistors and capacitors for the amplifier circuit are placed very close to the pins. Note that, to provide better current
feedback, there is a separate trace from the shunt resistor instead of sharing a plain with negative DC bus ground.
2.3.9 AC Input Voltage Feedback
IRMCF343 contains an Operational Amplifier for AC input voltage feedback which is mainly used for PFC control.
The AC input voltage signal is obtained through a proprietary differential amplifier circuit and control logic that is
embedded inside of the IRMCF343 IC, together with a few external resistors and capacitors.
2.3.10 DC Bus Voltage Feedback
The DC bus voltage feedback is used in both motor control and PFC control. This is implemented through a voltage
divider circuit, and the scaled-down analog signal is fed into an ADC input pin (AIN0) of IRMCF343.
2.4
Input Diode Bridge Rectifier
One piece of IR25XB08H diode bridge rectifier is mounted on a heat sink under the board.

2.5
PFC IGBT and Diode
At the PFC frond-end, one piece of IRGP4063DPbF trench IGBT and one piece of 30ETH06 hyperfast diode are
mounted on the same heat sink under the board. A 15-mΩ shunt resistor is in series with the inductor current flowing
path at the negative DC bus side. The shunt provides PFC current feedback as well as over-current protection (OCP).
The voltage across the shunts is fed to a comparator circuit. The comparator initiates the over-current shutdown
(PGatekill), and the PGatekill signal is fed to IRMCF343 IC. The OCP is about 20A peak. For more information
regarding trench IGBTs and hyperfast diode, please refer to their datasheets.
2.6
PFC Inductor
One piece of PFC inductor is provided separately from the PCB, and should be connected to the J2 connector. The
inductor shown in Figure 2 is 1.5mH at 15A Idc, with 10Arms current rating. You can use your own inductor for the
evaluation and test. The choice of inductor involves trade-offs in PFC control performance (current ripple, harmonics
and power factor), switching frequency, cost, space, power loss and EMI noise. The PFC switching frequency for the
IRMCS3043 is 30kHz, and the typical recommended reasonable inductance range is about 1mH to 1.5mH.
2.7
IRAM
At the inverter side, one piece of IRAMX16UP60A-2 is mounted on the same heat sink under the board. There are
two 20-mΩ shunt resistors (in parallel) that are inserted into the negative DC bus and external to the IRAM. These
shunts provide motor current feedback as well as over-current protection. The voltage across the shunts is fed to a
comparator circuit. The comparator initiates the over-current shutdown (CGatekill), and the CGatekill signal is fed to
both the IRAM and IRMCF343 IC. With the 10-mΩ shunt resistance and threshold set up of the comparator, the
OCP current is about 20A peak. For more information regarding IRAM, please refer to IRAM datasheet.
2.8
Power Supply
The switched-mode power supply (SMPS) operates at about 80 KHz and generates 15V(VCC), 5V and 3.3V. A 1.8V
DC voltage is generated from 3.3V by a linear regulator IRU1208. All these voltages are biased to the negative DC
bus. In addition, this SMPS also generates an isolated 12V which is used for the RS232 communication.
2.9
EMI Filter
The passive EMI filter on the board consists of two 1-µF X-caps, two 4.7-nF Y-caps and a 4-mH common-mode
inductor.
2.10 DC Bus Capacitors
Three pieces of 470-µF, 450 V, 85°C electrolytic capacitors are used as the DC bus capacitors.
