PCB Layout Recommendations

This reference design is implemented using a PCB with two-layer, 2-oz copper with the bottom-side SMD component placement to save cost and board area. There are several important aspects to remember while designing the PCB. In the following bullets, system-level placement and layout of each block is explained.

  • Separate components (or singles) into high and low voltage, high and low current, high and low independence groups. Place and route low-voltage and high-impedance components and signals together, such as microcontroller-related signals and the input side of IPM. Use a whole copper pour to provide an integrated GND plane for these area. AC input, filter, and rectifiers and IPM output sides are high-voltage, high-current and low-impedance parts and signals, route them with wider traces or copper pours to provide high-current paths, and also separate them from above low voltage and high-impedance signals to reduce interference.
  • Components in the high power path are kept on the outer edges of the PCB with the minimum distance possible. The microcontroller is placed at the center considering the optimum distance from all the power blocks that need to be controlled. Pin assignment is set to minimize the control signal or feedback signal trace distance and the crossing between analog and digital signals.
  • AC Line Protection and EMI Filter
    • AC line protection components are closely placed within the minimum distance to the connection path. Earth connection guarding is provided around protection and EMI filter circuit.
  • Motor Drive
    • For the high ripple requirement, the motor drive is placed as close as possible to the film capacitor and DC bus capacitor bank.
    • The low-side shunt resistor method with four-wire sensing is implemented for current sensing. A differential pair with impedance matching resistor is used to connect the sensing signal from the shunt resistors to the op-amp circuit. Shunt resistors are placed near the module with an immediate ground copper plane connection.
  • Auxiliary Power Supply
    • The GND of the auxiliary power supply connects the DC bus capacitor bank directly and independently to separate low current from high current and high frequency GND trace for the inverter.
