13.3 dsPICDEM 1.1 Development
Board
The dsPICDEM 1.1 Development Board is a low cost
development tool that lets you familiarize yourself with
the dsPIC30F 16-bit architecture, high performance
peripherals and powerful instruction set. This
development board is an ideal prototyping tool to help
you quickly develop and validate key design
requirements.
Some key features and attributes of the dsPICDEM 1.1
development board include:
• Supports dsPIC30F6014A device
• CAN communication channel
• RS-232 and RS-485 communication channels
• Voice band codec interface with line in/out jacks
• In-Circuit Debugger interface (MPLAB ICD 2)
• ICE 4000 Emulator interface
• Microchip temperature sensor
• Microchip Digital Potentiometer
• 122x32 Dot Addressable LCD
• General purpose prototyping area
• Various LEDS, switches and potentiometers
The general purpose development board is shipped
with a 9V power supply, RS-232 I/O cable,
preprogrammed dsPIC30F device, example software
and appropriate documentation to enable you
to exercise the development board demonstration
programs.

DEVELOPMENT BOARD
13.4 Motor Control Development Board
The dsPIC30F Motor Control Development Board
provides three main components for quick prototyping
and validation of BLDC, PMAC and ACIM applications:
• dsPIC30F Motor Control Main Board
• 3-phase Low-Voltage Power module
• 3-phase High-Voltage Power module
The main control board supports the dsPIC30F6010
device, various peripheral interfaces and a custom
interface header system, which allows different motor
power modules to be connected to the PCB. The
control board also has connectors for mechanical
position sensors, such as incremental rotary encoders
and Hall effect sensors, and a breadboard area for
custom circuits. The main control board receives its
power from a standard plug-in transformer.
The Low-Voltage Power module is optimized for 3-
phase motor applications that require a DC bus voltage
less than 50 volts and can deliver up to 400 watts
power output. The 3-phase Low-Voltage Power module
is intended to power BLDC and PMAC motors.
The High-Voltage Power module is optimized for
3-phase motor applications that require DC bus
voltages up to 400 volts and can deliver up to 1 Kw
power output. The high-voltage module has an active
power factor correction circuit that is controlled by the
dsPIC30F device. This power module is intended for
AC induction motor and power inverter applications.
Both power modules have automatic Fault protection
and the high-voltage module is electrically isolated
from the control interface. Both power module boards
provide pre-conditioned voltage and current signals to
the main control board. All position feedback devices
that are isolated from the motor control circuitry, such
as incremental encoders, Hall effect sensors or
tachometer sensors, can be directly connected to the
main control board. Both modules are equipped with
motor braking circuits.
Some key features and attributes of the motor control
main development board are:
• dsPIC30F Motor Control Main Board supporting
the dsPIC30F6010A
• RS-232 and RS-485 interface channels
•2x16 LCD
• In-Circuit Debugger interface (MPLAB ICD 2)
• ICE 4000 Emulator interface
• General purpose prototyping area
• Custom interface header system
• Various LEDs, switches and potentiometers
