FAQ

What is the maximum short-circuit withstand time?

The maximum short-circuit withstand time is 5 µs, provided the supply voltage is less than or equal to 400V, the junction temperature is 150°C, and the control supply voltage is 15V.

How is the over-temperature protection level configured?

The OT pin can be connected to VDD for a fixed trip level of 120°C. Alternatively, the trip level can be adjusted using pull-down resistors, such as 100kΩ for 130°C or 400kΩ for 110°C.

Which pins are used for short-circuit current detection?

Short-circuit current detection utilizes the CSC pin (Pin 15) and the negative DC-link inputs (NU, NV, NW). An external shunt resistor and RC filter are required for proper operation.
