From the project

Reverse engineering of the drive motor and inverter used in MG Electric Vehicles

The drive unit here is from a 2022 MG ZS EV Right hand drive.

First look : https://vimeo.com/929258328

One current sensor per phase. 5V supply, 2.5V at zero current anlog output.

Isolated gate power supplies provided from a common 30VDC primary supply , a pair of 5V at 132KHz and 42% duty signals to a mosfet driver. Transformers are Epcos A213721495C.

HV Voltage sensing is achived using the external ADC channel of the Low3 gate driver and transmitted via spi.
