I understand the concept of reading the voltage of the h-bridge capacitor as it is outlined in the "NFC passive lock implementation with NAC1080", what I am trying to understand is how to actually get the value of the variable "shc_channel_ma" for use in the following line of code.
cmp = shc_compare(shc_channel_ma, VOLTAGE_ON);
I have tried to get more insight with the doxygen documentation but am having trouble getting that to operate well and doesn't look like it will bring me closer to solving the problem.

I have exactly the same problem as already described in this link. It says that it has been solved. As I understand it I have not solved the problem yet?
In any case it still works for me. In any case, it still works for me. all points connection, build, flash, etc. were successful.
thx
Show LessHi.
I am currently trying to setup UART on this device to help with debugging. Using the SDK I have managed to setup ports, port speed, FIFO levels etc but haven't managed to work out how you send data to the UART for transmission via the GPIO? I found the function transmit_bytes in the uart_drv.h but it has no field to pass data into it. I suspect I have missed something pretty obvious and would appreciate a point in the right direction.
Show LessI am running a thermal analysis and am looking for the maximum junction temperature for IPT008N06NM5LFATMA1 along with the thermal resistance of the junction to board. Are these values that can be provided? I appreciate the help.
Show LessHi all,
The user guide states below that the FOD function can be disabled.
The GUI they are using does not have a tab to disable FOD function as shown below.
Could you please tell me why the FOD function is not displayed?
The version they used is:
GUI: 1.2
Firmware: 1.0.1.221
Load:WRM483265-10F5-12V-G(TDK)

Is it possible to get the CAD model(Step file maybe?) of FZ3600R17HP4??
Hi!
I am working with a design now that requires modules to be in a EconoDUAL or similar form factor to fit the mechanical design. I need a 24 pulse bridge rectifier and i am wondering if i can use the regular IGBT modules in this form factor as simple diode rectifiers simply by not driving the gate signals ?
I guess i might need to still fit gate drivers and apply power and tie the gate signals low ?
Are there any specific pitfalls that i need to be aware of in such an application ?
Show LessHello,
I would like to know if the source code of the KIT_600W_LLC_DI_CTRL is available somewhere, or if it's only a evaluation board to test the digital control "as-is" on the LLC Evaluation Boards but without any access to the source code and without the possibility of making any changes on the code of the XMC4200 included.
Thank you.
