What power supply voltages are required for operation?

The board requires a +5V digital supply and a +15V driver output provided externally to the designated connectors.

How can one reset the system after a fault is detected?

To reset, switch the RESET pin to ground, which clears the fault status and allows normal operation to resume.

Is there any built-in protection against over-voltage?

The evaluation board does not include over-voltage supply monitoring

users must ensure supply voltages remain within safe limits to avoid damage.

Can the input signals be modified for different applications?

Yes, the input PWM signals can be configured for non-inverting or inverting logic by adjusting the circuit components per the documentation.

What current can the output handle while testing?

The evaluation board can manage an output current of up to 20A, allowing thorough testing of IGBT performance under various conditions.
