Product overview

Description

The STEVAL-KITXCB is an evaluation kit for Ki cordless kitchen transmitter. The evaluation kit includes power inverter board, auxiliary power supply board, NFC board, inverter microcontroller board, power coil and NFC coil, and GUI display board. Thanks to the modular design approach, it becomes easier for the user to test and debug the various sections involved.

Ki cordless kitchen standard targets to replace traditional kitchen appliances using power cords (for example: mixer, toaster, rice cooker, coffee makers etc.) and to combine eventually with an induction cooktop. This Ki cordless kitchen standard defines wireless power transfer to all kitchen appliances up to 2.2 kW. At every zero‑crossing of input mains voltage the power transfer is stopped to have reliable NFC communication with the receiver.
