PS21563-P

Overview

The PS21563-P is a Mini DIP Intelligent Power Module (IPM) from the Intellimod series by Powerex Inc. It integrates power devices, drivers, and protection circuitry in a compact dual-in-line transfer-mold package for driving small three-phase motors. The module utilizes 5th generation IGBTs and application-specific HVICs to reduce inverter size and design time. Key electrical ratings include a collector-emitter voltage of 600 Volts and a continuous collector current of 10 Amperes at Tf = 25°C. The control sector operates with supply voltages between 13.5V and 16.5V. Isolation voltage is rated at 2500 Volts AC for one minute.

Feature Summary

• Integrates power devices, gate drivers, and protection logic within a single ultra-compact dual-in-line transfer-mold package.
• Features built-in protection mechanisms including short-circuit detection, over-current sensing, and under-voltage lockout.
• Utilizes integrated high-voltage ICs (HVICs) that allow direct connection of driving signals to standard CPUs without external level shifters.
• Designed for single power supply operation to simplify system architecture.

Applications

• Washing Machines
• Refrigerators
• Air Conditioners
• Small Servo Motors

Procurement Notes

Verify the component marking against the official datasheet specifications to ensure authenticity. Confirm that the lead frame is lead-free, as indicated by the 'P' suffix in the part number PS21563-P. Check the isolation voltage rating and thermal resistance values against your specific application requirements before finalizing the procurement order.

Selection Notes

Select this module for applications requiring a compact solution for small three-phase motor drives. Ensure the operating junction temperature remains below 125°C and the case temperature stays within the -20°C to 100°C range. Verify that the control supply voltage falls within the 13.5V to 16.5V window and that the PWM input frequency does not exceed 20 kHz.

Part Context

FAQ

What is the function of the P suffix in the part number?

The P suffix designates that the module uses a lead-free lead frame.

How is the fault output pulse width determined?

The fault output pulse width depends on the capacitance value of the external CFO capacitor, approximately calculated as CFO = (12.2 x 10^-6) x tFO.

Where is the short-circuit protection active?

Short-circuit protection functionality is active only at the lower arms of the inverter bridge.
