iMOTION™ integrated power module (IPM)

Motor controller IC and a three-phase inverter stage in a single package

anchor

Overview

IPM is a family of fully integrated modules for the control of three-phase motors, optimized for low-power devices. Within the iMOTION™ IPM family, there are two different series: The IMM100 and IMI110, which combine the motor controller IC and a three-phase inverter stage in a single package, minimizing external components count, and PCB area. The three-phase inverter stage is based either on six MOSFETs or six IGBTs.

Key Features

  • 600 V maximum DC blocking voltage
  • Based on six MOSFETs or six IGBTs
  • Field-proven iMOTION™
  • Typical input power: 70 W - 80 W

About

Motion Control Engine (MCE) in combination with IPM providing all required hardware functions: from single-shunt current sensing to bootstrap capability, signal filtering, and several hardware protections like dead-time insertion and shoot-through prevention. An iMOTION™ IPM does not require a heatsink and addresses motor drives with a typical application input power between 70 W and 80 W with 600 V maximum DC blocking voltage, depending on the chosen product variant.

All IMI110 and IMM100 devices support the functional safety requirements according to the IEC/UL 60730 (Class B).

The IMI110 series integrates a motor controller, three-phase gate driver, and 600 V/2 A or 600 V/4 A IGBTs in a DSO-22 package with a single-layer layout option. It also incorporates key features, such as typical application input power of 70 W without a heatsink, a completely self-sustaining Motion Control Engine, single shunt current sense, sensorless positioning sensing, and single layer PCB. The key benefits are, among other things, the unique combination of ready-to-use motor algorithms with market-leading gate driver, reduced system cost through reduced BOM count and PCB size, the possibility of a hall sensor-based startup and sensorless high-speed operation, fastest time-to-market by using iMOTION™ design kits, easy motor parametrization, tuning, and no inverter hardware design is required.

The IMM100 series is the next generation of the highly successful iMOTION™ motor control product line. It combines the motor controller IC and a 3-phase inverter stage in a single, highly compact 12 x 12 mm PQFN package. It also incorporates important key features such as motor control algorithm, scripting engine, boost PFC control, dead-time insertion and shoot-through prevention, a single shunt, leg shunt, sensorless or Hall-sensor based operation, integrated power stage MOSFETs (600 V/1.4 Ω, 500 V/6 Ω, 600 V/0.95 Ω) and typical application input power of 30 W/ 50 W/ 80 W without heatsink. 

The key benefits are, among other things, full hardware and software integration for BLDC motor drives with typical application input power of 80 W, lower system cost through reducing BOM count and PCB size, high-end sensorless FOC solution, smallest footprint for space-constrained applications, reduced R&D cost and time to market.
