10amp 400V DC Intelligent Power Module IPM
10 Amp 400V DC Intelligent power modules board has been designed using ON Semiconductors STK544UC62K. This Inverter IPM includes the
output stage of a 3-phase inverter, pre-drive circuits, bootstrap circuits, protection circuits, op-amp based current sense circuit, comparator
circuit for fault/Over current output, Bus voltage output, onboard 5V DC regulator for op-amp circuit. This board can be used to drive AC
Induction, BLDC, PMSM motors and Brushed DC Motors. This module integrate optimized gate drive of the built-in IGBTs to minimize EMI and
losses, while also providing multiple on-module protection features including under-voltage or over voltage , over-current , and fault reporting.
The built-in, high-speed HVIC requires only a single supply voltage and translates the incoming logic-level gate inputs to the high-voltage, high-
current drive signals required to properly drive the module's internal IGBTs. Separate negative IGBT terminals are connected to shunt resistor to
provide the current feedback to the micro-controller. This IPM module helps to develop various power applications and also can be used as H-
Bridge for brushed DC motor. The module is manly helps to drive Hall sensor based, encoder based motors and 3 Phase AC Motors. The IC has
Built-in dead-time for shoot-thru protection. Internal substrate temperature is measured with an internal pulled up thermistor. PWM frequency
up to 20 KHz. The board can be used in application like small machines as speed controller, washing machine, refrigerator, Air condition,
automation, AC motor speed controller, dc motor speed controller, brushless dc motor driver, ac servo driver.
Features
Supply Up To 400V DC
Gate Driver Supply 15V DC
Current Feedback Output 200mV/1Amp
Fault Output Normally High, Goes low at Over Current set point
Trimmer Potentiometer PR1 to set the over current/Fault output
Note 1:
The pre-drive power supply low voltage protection has approximately 200 mV of hysteresis and operates as follows.
Upper side : The gate is turned off and will return to regular operation when recovering to the normal voltage, but the latch will
Continue till the input signal will turn ‘high’.
Lower side : The gate is turned off and will automatically reset when recovering to normal voltage. It does not depend on input signal
voltage.
Note 2:
When assembling the IPM on the heat sink the tightening torque range is 0.6 Nm to 0.9 Nm.
Note 3:
The pre-drive low voltage protection protects the device when the pre-drive supply voltage falls due to an operating malfunction.
Note 4:
Inside the IPM, a thermistor used as the temperature monitor is connected between VDD terminal and T/ITRIP terminal, therefore, an
external pull down resistor R12 4K3 connected between the T/ITRIP terminal and VSS terminal is used , read data sheet for more info for
temperature feedback.
The board operates at lethal voltages and has bulk capacitors that store significant charge. Accidental contact
can lead to lab equipment damage, personnel injury, and may be fatal. Please be exceptionally careful when
probing and handling this board. Always observe normal laboratory precautions.
