BM63573S-VC

Overview

The BM63573S-VC is a 600V Intelligent Power Module (IPM) from ROHM Semiconductor, designed for low-speed switching applications up to 6 kHz. It integrates a 10A IGBT with an open emitter configuration and built-in bootstrap diodes into a single HSDIP25VC package. Key electrical parameters include a collector-emitter saturation voltage of 1.5V and an isolation voltage of 1500 Vrms. The module supports 3-phase DC/AC inverter topologies and operates within a storage temperature range of -40°C to 125°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates high-side gate drivers using SOI process technology with high-voltage level shifting capabilities.
• Includes short-circuit current protection (SCP) and under-voltage lockout (UVLO) functions for the low-side driver.
• Features analog temperature output signals for thermal monitoring and fault detection.

Applications

• Three-phase DC/AC inverters
• Compressor drives
• Low-speed motor control systems

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized ROHM distributors or official manufacturer channels. Confirm that the specific suffix matches the required pinout and insulation characteristics. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives as specified in the official datasheet before integration into final assemblies.

Selection Notes

Select this IPM for designs requiring integrated protection features such as SCP and UVLO to simplify gate drive circuitry. Consider the 6 kHz maximum switching frequency limit when designing PWM schemes. Verify that the 10A current rating aligns with the peak load requirements of the target three-phase inverter application.
