High voltage power stage delivers dedicated, reliable appliance solution
Integrating industry benchmark three-phase high voltage ICs and rugged trench IGBTs in a sleek and innovative single in-line package (SIP), IR’s
intelligent power modules (IPMs) deliver a complete power stage solution for today’s energy-efficient appliance and light industrial equipment driven
by variable speed motors ranging from 400W to 2500W.
 The IPMs are an addition to the iMOTION™ family of integrated
design platforms from IR. Together with a few external components and our IRMCK series of controllers, they form a
complete motor drive system, greatly accelerating the design path compared to a multi-discrete solution.

Example configuration: Integrated Current Shunt
Built-in over-temperature/over-current protection, along with short-circuit rated IGBTs, an integrated under-voltage
lockout function, and built-in temperature monitor provide a high level of protection and fail-safe operation. Other
integrated features, such as bootstrap diodes for the highside drive function and the single polarity power supply,
simplify overall system design.
Main Configurations
- Open emitter coniguration: flexible architecture to configure current sensing feedback resistors. Over-temperature is detected internally and triggers the fault condition.
- Integrated current shunt configuration: a current shunt is included on the negative bus of the inverter. Over-current is detected internally and triggers the fault condition.
IR’s iMOTION brings digital controllers, analog stage and power modules together in one easy to implement, integrated design platform.
