TEC28V15AEV2 Evaluation Board for TEC28V15AD / TEC28V15ADAPID TEC Controllers

The TEC28V15AEV2 is a TEC controller evaluation board developed for evaluating TEC28V15AD and TEC28V15ADAPID TEC controllers. It provides a convenient platform for configuring, testing, and tuning high-current TEC temperature control circuits.

The compatible TEC28V15A series controller is designed to drive a thermoelectric cooler at high efficiency for precise object temperature regulation. It controls both the direction and magnitude of the current flowing through the TEC, allowing heating and cooling control for accurate temperature stabilization.

The TEC28V15AEV2 is intended for evaluating controllers powered by a 9 V to 28 V DC supply, with output current capability up to 15 A without using a heat sink under specified operating conditions. The board allows users to set the maximum output voltage, set the set-point temperature, monitor the output voltage, monitor the actual thermal load temperature, and tune the compensation network.

The main purpose of this evaluation board is to tune the compensation network on the board to match the characteristics of the user’s thermal load. Proper compensation tuning helps minimize thermal control loop response time and dynamic temperature tracking error while keeping the control loop stable.

The TEC28V15AEV2 includes a complete application circuit for driving a TEC controller, an LED for indicating the working status of the controller, and numerous connection pads and terminal connectors for external components and instruments. The TEC28V15AEV2 is 100% lead (Pb)-free and RoHS compliant.
