Power Driver Modules FAQ

How is the short-circuit protection level adjusted?

The adjustable current protection level is set by selecting the external sense resistor (Rs) connected to the Sense-IGBT emitter's external Rs pin.

What is the function of the separate open-emitter pins?

The separate open-emitter pins from the low-side IGBTs are provided specifically to support three-phase current sensing for various control algorithms.

Can the module be driven directly by a microcontroller?

Yes, the built-in high-speed HVIC translates incoming logic-level gate inputs, allowing direct coupling to MCU terminals without optocoupler isolation.
