BM63573S-VA

Overview

The BM63573S-VA is a three-phase Intelligent Power Module (IPM) manufactured by ROHM Semiconductor, designed for AC/DC inverter applications. It integrates high-side IGBT gate drivers, low-side IGBTs, bootstrap diodes, and fast recovery diodes within a single HSDIP-25 package. The module supports a collector-emitter voltage of 600 V and operates with through-hole mounting. Key electrical parameters include a maximum operating temperature of +115°C and a minimum of -25°C. The device utilizes silicon technology and features an isolation voltage rating suitable for industrial environments.

Feature Summary

• Integrates high-side gate drivers, low-side IGBTs, and bootstrap diodes into a compact HSDIP-25 package.
• Includes built-in protection functions such as under-voltage lockout and short-circuit current protection.
• Designed for three-phase DC/AC inverter topologies with open emitter configuration.

Applications

• Three-phase DC/AC inverters
• Industrial motor drives
• Air conditioner compressors

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix VA against the latest official datasheet to confirm pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics. Ensure that the design accounts for the HSDIP-25 through-hole mounting requirements and adequate heatsinking for the specified power dissipation levels. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer documentation prior to final procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust, integrated solution for three-phase inversion is required without external discrete driver components. The HSDIP-25 package offers a balance between power handling and board space efficiency. Consider the 600V rating and current capabilities relative to the specific load requirements of the target inverter application.

Part Context

This IPM belongs to ROHM's BM63 series, which focuses on integrating power switching elements with control logic for motor control applications. The series is characterized by its use of IGBT technology for efficient switching at moderate frequencies. The BM63573S-VA specifically targets standard industrial and consumer appliance markets requiring reliable three-phase power conversion.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other ROHM BM63 series variants with similar voltage and current ratings, provided the pinout and thermal specifications match. Cross-referencing with BM63575S-VA or BM63373S-VA requires careful verification of internal component configurations and protection feature sets.
