Infineon Technologies AG Evaluation Boards MCETOOLV2

Isolated iMOTION™ motor control IC debugger tool

The MCETOOLV2 is an isolated debugger tool designed to program and debug IRMCK099, IRMCx100 and RMCx300 series iMOTION™ motor control ICs on the user’s target board (final application board) or on their respective evaluation boards.

The MCETOOLV2 is also required for motor and inverter board parameter configuration and tuning via UART to USB interface. For this functionality, Infineon additionally provides the necessary PC tools MCEWizzard and MCEDesigner, available under tools & software tab (click on “+” to see all available Software packages). These 2 software tools are delivered as a part of the respective series’ Installer package (e.g. “99 Series Installer” for IRMCK099M devices, or “100 Series Installer” for IRMCK1xx or IRMCF1xx devices).

The MCETOOLV2 is required for using any iMOTION™ IRMCKxxx control board of the iMOTION™ Modular Application Design Kit (MADK) platform. Please check the content of the respective kit on its website to learn if MCETOOL V2 is part of the kit, or it needs to be ordered separately.

IMPORTANT NOTE: MCETOOLV2 is functionally equivalent to MCETOOLV1 which has been obsoleted.
