PS21963-4S

Overview

The PS21963-4S is a Dual-In-Line Intelligent Power Module manufactured by Powerex. It integrates a 600V/10A low-loss 5th generation IGBT inverter bridge designed for three-phase DC-to-AC power conversion. The module utilizes hybrid technology and features a microelectronic assembly package with 25 terminals. It operates within a temperature range of -20°C to 100°C and requires a supply voltage between 13V and 18.5V, with a nominal rating of 15V.

Feature Summary

• Integrates 5th generation IGBTs for low-loss performance
• Provides intelligent power module functionality in a dual-in-line package
• Designed specifically for three-phase DC-to-AC power conversion applications

Applications

• Three-phase AC motor drives
• Industrial inverter systems
• Power conversion circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'S' against official Powerex documentation to confirm pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics. Ensure the required 13V to 18.5V control supply voltage is available. Confirm that the 25-terminal dual-in-line package fits the target PCB footprint and mechanical constraints before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, integrated solution for three-phase inversion is required. The 10A current rating and 600V blocking voltage define the operational limits. Consider the hybrid construction and thermal management requirements associated with the dual-in-line form factor for heat dissipation.

Part Context

This module belongs to the PS219 series of intelligent power modules from Powerex. It shares architectural similarities with variants like the PS21963-4 and PS21963-4CE, which also feature 600V/10A ratings. The series is characterized by the integration of gate drive circuits with high-power IGBT switches.

Replacement Considerations

Potential substitutes include the PS21963-4 and PS21963-4C. Verify electrical equivalence and physical pin compatibility before substitution.
