AIP3D10A060Q6

Overview

The AIP3D10A060Q6 is a 26-pin Intelligent Power Module (IPM) in the IPM-3 package, manufactured by Alpha & Omega Semiconductor Inc. It integrates a three-phase inverter utilizing Trench Shielded Planar Gate IGBTs rated at 600V and 10A continuous collector current. The module features built-in bootstrap diodes with integrated current-limiting resistors, control supply under-voltage lockout protection, controllable over-temperature protection, and short-circuit current protection. It includes temperature monitoring via VOT and a controllable fault output signal.

Feature Summary

• Includes built-in bootstrap diodes with integrated current-limiting resistors
• Provides comprehensive protection including UVLO, OT, and CSC
• Features temperature monitoring and controllable fault output signals

Applications

• AC 100-240Vrms class low power motor drives
• Washing machines
• Compressors
• Fan Motors

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific terminal type required for the design, as the Q6 suffix denotes long terminals compared to the standard Q6N variant. Confirm that the application voltage does not exceed the 400V maximum operating limit despite the 600V device rating. Ensure the PCB layout accommodates the IPM-3 package dimensions and mounting torque specifications to maintain thermal performance and mechanical stability.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring an integrated three-phase drive solution with built-in protection logic. The module supports 3V and 5V logic inputs via Schmitt trigger receivers. Designers must account for the specific isolation ratings and ensure adequate heat sinking, as the thermal resistance values are provided per one-sixth of the module. Verify compatibility with the recommended snubber and bootstrap capacitor configurations.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AIP3 series of Intelligent Power Modules from Alpha & Omega Semiconductor. It is designed for compact motor control applications where space and integration are critical. The module combines power switching elements with gate drivers and protection circuits into a single package, simplifying the design process for low-power AC motor drives.

FAQ

What is the function of the VCF pin?

The VCF pin serves as a combined enable input and fault output. It shuts down all low-side IGBTs when held low and outputs fault signals for short-circuit, under-voltage, or over-temperature conditions.

How is the over-temperature protection threshold adjusted?

The OT trip level can be adjusted by connecting pull-down resistors to the OT pin. Connecting the pin to VDD sets the trip level to 120°C, while other resistor values allow for different thresholds like 110°C or 130°C.

Which side of the inverter provides short-circuit protection?

Short-circuit current protection (CSC) is implemented only for the low-side IGBTs, requiring an external shunt resistor and RC filter connected to the CSC pin.
