Product details
Overview
STEVAL-IHM015V1 from STMicroelectronics is a low-voltage motor control demonstration kit built around the ST7MC2S4 8-bit microcontroller and dual STS8DNH3LL 8 A/30 V power MOSFETs, supporting 5–48 V bus voltage and up to 25 A continuous current for synchronous motor drive evaluation.
For engineers reviewing the STEVAL-IHM015V1 datasheet, STEVAL-IHM015V1 pinout, STEVAL-IHM015V1 application, or STEVAL-IHM015V1 equivalent, this board provides hands-on validation of ST7MC2S4-based motor control firmware, real-time tuning via four potentiometers, SCI serial communication, and in-circuit debugging via 10-pin ICC interface.
Technical Context
The board implements a three-phase half-bridge power stage with discrete gate drivers and current sensing, directly interfacing the ST7MC2S4's dedicated motor control peripherals (MTC), including PWM outputs (PA3, PC7), MCIA/MCIB/MCIC hall sensor inputs, and MCCREF/OAP analog monitoring channels.
It integrates on-board 2 Kb serial EEPROM (M95020-MN3TP/S), 10 V auxiliary supply connector, NTC temperature sensing, and debug pins mapped to PD6 (RDI) and PD7 (TDO), enabling full JTAG/SWIM-compatible programming and runtime diagnostics using ST's inDART-STX debugger.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Voltage Range | 5 V to 48 V DC bus input - supports wide-range low-voltage motor systems including 12 V, 24 V, and 48 V battery-powered drives. |
| Max Continuous Current | 25 A - enables evaluation of high-torque BLDC/PMSM motors up to ~500 W at 24 V. |
| Power MOSFETs | STS8DNH3LL (dual SO-8) - integrated 8 A/30 V N-channel devices with logic-level gate drive compatibility. |
| Microcontroller | ST7MC2S4T6-TQFP44 - 8-bit core with 16 KB Flash, MTC peripheral suite, and hardware PWM timers for precise commutation timing. |
| Communication Interface | SCI (UART) + 10-pin ICC (SWIM/JTAG) - enables firmware upload, real-time variable monitoring, and breakpoint debugging without external adapters. |
| On-board Memory | 2 Kb serial EEPROM (M95020-MN3TP/S) - stores calibration data, motor parameters, or user configuration across power cycles. |
| User Controls | Four 50 kΩ potentiometers + Start/Stop & Reset buttons - allows runtime adjustment of speed reference, current limit, acceleration ramp, and dead-time without reprogramming. |
Availability

FAQ
Is STEVAL-IHM015V1 still in production?
No - STEVAL-IHM015V1 is an obsolete evaluation kit, last released in September 2008. It remains available through authorized surplus channels and legacy design support programs, but no new silicon revisions or technical updates are planned.
What software tools are compatible with this board?
The kit supports ST's STVD7 IDE and STVP programming utility via the 10-pin ICC interface. Firmware development uses COSMIC C compiler or ST's free ST7 Standard Peripherals Library, targeting the ST7MC2S4's MTC peripheral registers and SCI driver stack.
Can I replace the STS8DNH3LL MOSFETs with other devices?
Yes - the power stage accepts SO-8 (dual or single) and DPAK MOSFETs. Layout supports direct replacement; gate drive strength and thermal pad routing are optimized for those packages, and the board's 10 V auxiliary rail meets typical logic-level FET VGS requirements.
Does the board support encoder feedback or only hall sensors?
It supports both: the ST7MC2S4's ICAP1_B/ICAP2_B inputs (PE3/PE2) accept quadrature encoder signals, while PB1–PB3 (MCIA/MCIB/MCIC) are dedicated to digital hall sensor inputs - enabling either commutation method without hardware modification.
