Motor Power Stage Protected with Rugged 600V ICs

Page Contents:   [ Featured Products | Datasheets | Application Notes | Buy Now ]

Integrating industry benchmark three-phase high voltage ICs and rugged trench IGBTs in a sleek and innovative single in-line package (SIP), IR’s intelligent power modules (IPMs) deliver a complete power stage solution for today’s energy efficient appliances and light industrial equipment driven by variable speed motors ranging from 400W to 2500W.

The IPMs are available as part of the iMOTION™* family of integrated design platforms from IR. Together with a few external components and our IRMCK series of controllers, they form a complete motor drive system, greatly accelerating the design path compared to a multi-discrete solution.

Built-in over-temperature/over-current protection, along with short circuit rated IGBTs, an integrated under-voltage lockout function, and built-in temperature monitor provide a high level of protection and fail-safe operation. Other integrated features, such as bootstrap diodes for the high-side drive function and the single polarity power supply, simplify overall system design.

Design Support: The IRADK10 reference design kit features a complete three-phase motor drive system and easy-to-use control software with graphical user interface (GUI).

 

FEATURES Utilizes proprietary three-phase monolithic gate driver IC matched with highly efficient IGBT power switches Insulated metal substrate technology for reduced EMI Optimized for power up to 2.2kW Web-based design tool at www.irf.com/design-center/ipm Replaces more than 20 discrete parts to deliver complete power stage solution

APPLICATIONS Clothes washers In-room and wall air-conditioners Compressor drives Appliance fans/compressors Light industrial drives

 

MAIN CONFIGURATIONS Open emitter coniguration: flexible architecture to configure current sensing feedback resistors. Over-temperature is detected internally and triggers the fault condition. Integrated current shunt configuration: a current shunt is included on the negative bus of the inverter. Over-current is detected internally and triggers the fault condition. IR’s iMOTION brings digital controllers, analog stage and power modules together in one easy to implement, integrated design platform.

ADVANTAGES Shrinks board space requirements Shortens design time Slashes assembly time and cost Boosts system reliability over discrete designs No additional isolation required Simplifies procurement and inventory management Reference design kit available

 

 

 

 

 

 

International Rectifier introduces IPM WB Design Tool, a powerful web-based tool that enables Motor Control Engineers the ability to evaluate our iMOTION™ family of integrated power modules. The modules are the ideal solution for variable speed motors used in home appliances and light industrial applications. By offering easy implementation, shorter design cycle times, reduced circuit board space, simplified layout and assembly, increased overall system reliability and minimum EMI emissions, our integrated power module technology delivers a low cost system which ultimately enables an energy saving appliance.
