IM241M6S1BALMA1

Overview

The IM241M6S1BALMA1 is a CIPOS™ Micro intelligent power module featuring a 600 V reverse conducting IGBT and integrated gate drivers. It provides a 3-phase open emitter topology with a maximum collector current of 4 A and a DC link voltage up to 400 V. The SOP 29x12 package includes built-in NTC thermistor monitoring, overcurrent shutdown via the ITRIP pin, and programmable fault clearing through the RFE pin. Designed for industrial applications, it supports 3.3 V or 5.0 V logic inputs.

Feature Summary

• Integrates 600 V reverse conducting IGBTs with industry-benchmarked half-bridge drivers in a fully isolated SOP module.
• Includes precise overcurrent protection, temperature feedback via an internal NTC, and programmable fault clear functionality.
• Features accessible low-side emitter pins for individual phase current monitoring and optimized dV/dt settings.

Applications

• High-efficiency appliance motor drives
• Fan and pump control systems
• Small home appliances

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official Infineon documentation to confirm the exact package type (DIP vs. SOP) and speed variant (Fast 'B' vs. Low EMI 'J'). Confirm that the component meets JEDEC47/20/22 industrial qualification standards required for the target application environment before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this module when integrating power and control components to optimize PCB size and system costs. Choose the 'B' version for low-loss operation at higher switching frequencies or the 'J' version for low EMI requirements. Ensure the design accommodates the 29-pin SOP footprint and utilizes the accessible emitters for accurate current sensing.

Part Context

This component belongs to the CIPOS™ Micro IM241 product group, designed to increase reliability by combining various power and control components. It offers both fast and slow speed options within the same family to address different trade-offs between efficiency and electromagnetic interference in compact motor drive designs.

FAQ

What is the function of the RFE pin?

The RFE pin combines three functions: RC-network based programmable fault clear timer, fault output reporting, and enable input control.

How does the module handle shoot-through prevention?

The integrated gate driver provides shoot-through prevention capability and inserts a minimum deadtime of typically 300 ns to reduce cross-conduction.

Is the module suitable for high-voltage transient conditions?

Yes, the VS pins provide robustness against negative voltage transients relative to VSS, ensuring stable operation under rough conditions.
