PS21562-P

Overview

The PS21562-P is a Mini DIP Intelligent Power Module (IPM) from the Intellimod™ series by Powerex Inc. It integrates 5th generation IGBTs, application-specific HVICs, and protection circuitry into a compact dual-in-line transfer-mold package. Rated for 600V collector-emitter voltage and 5A continuous collector current, it features a 35-pin PowerDIP footprint. The module includes integrated short-circuit protection with a 400V self-protection supply limit, under-voltage lockout, and fault output signaling. Designed for single power supply operation, it allows direct CPU connection via level-shifted inputs.

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or official manufacturer channels. Confirm lead-free lead frame designation associated with the P suffix. Check datasheet specifications against current design requirements, noting that absolute maximum ratings define operational limits. Ensure proper thermal management and mounting torque compliance during installation.

Selection Notes

Select this module for applications requiring integrated motor drive solutions with minimal external components. Consider the 35-pin Mini DIP package for space-constrained designs. Evaluate thermal resistance characteristics and allowable RMS current based on specific switching frequencies and load profiles. Verify compatibility with control logic levels provided by the integrated HVICs.

Part Context
