IM231L6T2BAKMA1

Overview

The IM231L6T2BAKMA1 is a 600V, 6A three-phase intelligent power module (IPM) from Infineon’s CIPOS Micro family. It integrates a low VCE(sat) TRENCHSTOP IGBT6 inverter bridge with gate drivers and bootstrap functionality. The device features an open emitter topology and includes a built-in NTC temperature monitor for thermal protection. Packaged in a PG-DIP-23 case, it is designed for compact motor drive applications requiring high efficiency and integrated control logic.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a 600V three-phase inverter with TRENCHSTOP IGBT6 technology for low saturation voltage
• Includes dedicated gate drivers and bootstrap circuitry within a single package
• Features a built-in NTC temperature sensor for real-time thermal monitoring
• Utilizes an open emitter topology to simplify external circuit design

Applications

• Fan motor driver systems
• Stepper motor control applications
• General purpose three-phase motor drives

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix KMA1 against official Infineon documentation to confirm pinout and packaging details. Confirm current lifecycle status as obsolescence information may vary by region. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints before ordering. Cross-reference datasheet revisions to validate electrical characteristics for your specific operating conditions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact solution for three-phase IGBT driving is required. The integrated gate drivers reduce board space compared to discrete solutions. The open emitter topology allows flexible connection options. Verify that the 6A current rating meets the load requirements. Check thermal management needs given the integrated NTC feature.
