PS11013

Overview

The Powerex PS11013 is a flat-base insulated Application Specific Intelligent Power Module (ASIPM) manufactured by Mitsubishi Semiconductor. It integrates a three-phase IGBT inverter bridge, a converter rectifier bridge, and dynamic braking circuits into a single package. The module features an integrated drive circuit, high-voltage isolated level shifting, and comprehensive protection mechanisms including short-circuit, over-temperature, and under-voltage locking. Designed for AC200V class applications, it supports a continuous output current of 3.0A rms at 100% load and 4.5A rms during 150% overload conditions.

Feature Summary

• Integrates three-phase IGBT inverter bridge, converter rectifier, and dynamic braking circuits within a compact flat-base insulated package.
• Includes built-in drive circuits with high-speed level shifting, short-circuit protection, and under-voltage/over-voltage locking for both upper and lower legs.
• Provides system-level feedback through analogue signal outputs that reproduce actual inverter phase currents for closed-loop control.
• Features dedicated fault output signaling pins for short-circuit detection, control supply abnormalities, and system over-temperature conditions.

• Motor control applications requiring integrated power conversion and protection
• Systems utilizing dynamic braking for motor regenerative energy

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation on official documentation, as this component is originally specified by Mitsubishi Semiconductor. Confirm that the specific datasheet version aligns with your design requirements regarding thermal resistance and pinout assignments. Ensure compatibility with the recommended 15V control supply voltage and check for any updates to the isolation voltage ratings before finalizing procurement specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this module for designs requiring a complete three-phase power stage with integrated intelligence. It is suitable for applications needing direct CPU interfacing via CMOS/TTL compatible inputs without external optocouplers. Consider the thermal management requirements based on the junction-to-case resistance and ensure the cooling solution maintains the case temperature within the specified operating range.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Mitsubishi Semiconductor ASIPM family, designed to simplify the development of three-phase motor drives. It combines power switching elements with advanced control logic to reduce board space and design time. The flat-base insulated type allows for direct mounting to heatsinks while maintaining electrical isolation between the terminals and the base plate.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official Mitsubishi Semiconductor documentation for confirmed substitute part numbers. Verify that any replacement matches the original pinout, voltage ratings, and thermal characteristics to ensure system compatibility.

FAQ

How does the module handle arm shoot-through?

The module includes an input interlock protection circuit that cuts off both upper and lower IGBTs if simultaneous low-level signals are detected, outputting an FO signal to indicate the fault.

What is the function of the CU, CV, and CW pins?

These pins provide analogue signal outputs that reproduce the actual inverter output phase currents, allowing for system feedback control and current monitoring.

Can the module be driven directly by a CPU?

Yes, the input interface is 5V CMOS/TTL compatible with Schmitt trigger inputs, allowing direct coupling to a CPU without requiring external optical or transformer isolation.
