Drivers for low-power motors

6 August 2014 Power Electronics / Power Management

International Rectifier introduced the μIPM-DIP family of Integrated Power Modules (IPM) for low-power motor drive applications including fans, pumps, air purifiers and refrigerator compressor drives. Available in a compact 12 x 29 mm SOP/DIP package, the 32 new devices feature rugged and efficient high-voltage FredFET MOSFETs specifically optimised for variable frequency drives with voltage ratings of 250 V or 500 V. These are paired with IR’s most advanced high-voltage driver IC tuned to achieve a balance between EMI and switching losses. The μIPM-DIP family offers DC current ratings ranging up to 4,6 A to drive motors up to 150 W without a heatsink, and are available in both through-hole and surface mount package options.
