• Compressors and fan motors

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific terminal type required for your design: 'Q4' denotes long terminals, while 'Q4N' indicates normal terminals. Confirm RoHS compliance status and check for any product change notices regarding lead times or packaging updates before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this IPM for applications requiring integrated gate drive and protection within a compact form factor. Ensure the control supply voltage remains between 13.5V and 16.5V. Verify that the thermal resistance characteristics align with your heat sink design to maintain junction temperatures within the -40°C to 150°C operating range.

Part Context

This component belongs to the AIP3 series of intelligent power modules from Alpha & Omega Semiconductor. It is designed as a complete solution for three-phase motor control, integrating power switches, drivers, and protection circuits into a single dual-in-line package suitable for through-hole mounting.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Designers should evaluate parameter-equivalent models from the same manufacturer family, ensuring compatibility with pin configurations and electrical ratings.

FAQ

How is the over-temperature protection trip level configured?

The OT pin can be connected to VDD for a default 120°C setup, left open for the same setting, or adjusted using pull-down resistors (e.g., 100kΩ for 130°C, 400kΩ for 110°C).

What is the function of the VCF pin?

The VCF pin serves as a controllable fault output for short-circuit, under-voltage, and over-temperature faults, and also provides an enable input functionality to shut down low-side IGBTs.

Does the short-circuit protection apply to high-side IGBTs?

No, the short-circuit current protection (CSC) works only for the low-side IGBTs.
