System Description
The IRPT2051C
provides the complete
power conversion function for a 3hp (2.2kW) variable-frequency,
variable-voltage, AC motor controller. The
combines a power assembly IRPT2051A with a Driver-Plus
Board IRPT2051D. Figure 1 shows the block diagram of the
within an AC motor control system.
The power module contains a 3-phase input bridge rectifier, 3phase IGBT and diode, 3-phase IGBT inverter, current sense
shunts, and a thermistor. It is designed for easy mounting to a
heat sink.
The Driver-Plus Board contains DC link capacitors, capacitor
soft charge function using NTC thermistor, surge suppression
MOVs, IGBT gate drivers, DC bus voltage and current feedback
signals, protection circuitry and local power supply. It is designed to mate with a controller board through a single row
header. Terminal blocks are also provided on the Driver-Plus
Board for all end-user line input, motor output, and brake resistor.
Output power is Pulse-Width Modulated (PWM), 3-phase,
variable-frequency, variable voltage controlled by an externallygenerated user-provided PWM controller for inverter IGBT
switching. The power supply offers the user non-isolated 5V and
15V to power the microcontroller.
The IRPT2051C offers several benefits to the drive manufacturer as listed below:
• It eliminates component selection, design layout, interconnection, gate drive, local power supply, thermal sensing,
current sensing, and protection.
• Gate drive and protection circuits are designed to closely
match the operating characteristics of the power semiconductors. This allows power losses to be minimized and
power rating to be maximized to a greater extent than is
possible by designing with individual components.
• It reduces the effort of calculating and evaluating power
semiconductor losses and junction temperature.
• It reduces the manufacturer's part inventory and simplifies
assembly.

The IRPT2051A Power Module
The IRPT2051A power module, shown in figure 2, is a chip
and wire epoxy-encapsulated module. It houses input rectifiers,
brake IGBT and freewheeling diode, output inverter, current
sense shunts and NTC thermistor. The 3-phase input bridge
rectifiers are rated at 1600V. The brake circuit uses 1200V
IGBT and free-wheeling diode. The inverter section employs
1200V, short circuit rates, ultrafast IGBTs and ultrafast freeΩ
wheeling diodes. Current sensing is achieved through 25 mΩ
low-inductance shunts provided in the positive and negative
DC bus rail. The NTC thermistor provides temperature sensing
capability. The lead spacing on the power modulemeets UL840
pollution level 3 requirements.
Figure 2. IRPT2051A Power Module
The power circuit and layout within the module are carefully
designed to minimize inductance in the power path, to reduce
noise during inverter operation and to improve the inverter efficiency. The Driver-Plus Board required to run the inverter can
be soldered to the power module pins, thus minimizing assembly
and alignment. The power module is designed to be mounted to
a heat sink with two screw mount positions, in order to insure
good thermal contact between the module substrate and the heat
sink.
IRPT2051
The IRPT2051D Driver-Plus Board
The Driver-Plus Board, shown in figure 3, is the interface between the controller and the power stage. It contains the IGBT
gate drivers, protection circuitry, feedback, brake drive and local
power supply. The driver also interfaces to the AC input line. It
houses the DC link capacitors, NTC in-rush limiting thermistor,
and surge suppression MOVs.
The inverter gate drive circuits, implemented with an
IR2233 monolithic 3-phase HVIC driver, deliverrs gate drive to
the IGBTs corresponding to PWM control signals IN1 through
IN6. it introduces a 0.2 µsec dead time between upper and lower
gate signals for each phase. Any additional dead time necessary
tmust be included in the PWM signals. After a fault condition
all inverter gate drivers are disabled and latched. The FAULT
pin is also pulled low through an open drain which illuminates a
red LED. Gate drives must be enabled with an active low pulse
Figure 3. IRPT2051D Driver-Plus Board
applied to the RESET pin while PWM inputs In1,...IN6 are held
high (off condition). The FAULT condition can also be set by
the controller through an active high signal on the STOP pin.
After power-up, the RESET pin must be pulled low before any
input signals are activated.
The protection circuitry will set a FAULT for short-circuit,
earth-fault, over-temperature, or over-voltage conditions as
specified. Current signals are sensed through shunts in positive
and negative DC bus rails. Earth faults are sensed using the
high-side shunt and the signal is fed through an opto-isolator to
the protection circuitry. Over-voltage is sensed through a resistor divider from the positive DC bus. Over-temperature
protection is obtained using a thermistor inside the power module. A FAULT condition occurs inf the temperature of the
power module's IMS substrate exceeds the trip level. The system is designed for 150% overload for one minute while
operating with the specified heat sinks. The controller should
shut off the PWM signals if the overload persists for more than
one minute.
The feedback signals used by the protection circuitry are also
available to the controller. The current feedback signal from the
low-side shunt is available on the IFB pin at 0.025 V/A. If filtering of this signal is required, it should be done by adding a
high-impedance buffer stage between signal and filter. The DC
bus reference is provided on VFB. This reference has been
scaled down by a factor of 100 and should also be protected with
a high-impedance buffer stage.
The brake function is implemented by connecting a power
resistor between the terminals on the Brake terminal block. The
value and power of theresistor determines maximum braking capability along with the rating of the brake IGBT. The input
signal on IN7 is active low and CMOS or LSTTL compatible.
The switching power supply employs an IR2152 self-oscillating driver chip in a buck regulator topology to deliver a
nominal 15V and 5V DC with respect to the negative bus (N).
The power supply feeds the gate drive and protection circuits.
The 15V (VCC ) and 5V (VDD) outputs are available on the control interface for powering the user's control logic.

Power-Up Procedure
When 3-phase input power is first switched on, PWM inputs to
the IRPT2051 must be inhibited (held high) until the protection
latch circuitry is reset. To reset this latch before inverter startup, RESET pin on J6 connector must be pulled down low for at
least 2 µsec. This will set the FAULT feedback signal high.
Now, the PWM input signals can be applied for inverter start-up.
Power-Down Procedure
The following sequence is recommended for normal power
down:
1. reduce motor speed by PWM control
2. inhibit PWM inputs
3. disconnect main power.
All input and output connections are made via a 16-terminal female connector to J6.

Functional Information
CAUTION:
All control logic is referenced to the negative power bus,
System Protections
which is live with respect to earth/ground.
Short circuit is monitored through a shunt in the negative
bus, which detects phase-to-phase and phase-to-earth short circuits (when current flows from earth to negative bus). The
voltage drop across teh shunt is compared to a pre-set limit and
when the current exceeds the rated nominal value, this protection
is activated. The shunt signal is available to the user on the control interface as IFB. Since this is the same node that is used by
this protection circuit, any external connection should be done
through a high impedance buffer stage.
Earth/ground fault from positive bus to earth is detected to
the shunt in the positive bus and an opto-coupler. When fault
current exceeds the rated nominal value, this protection is activated.
Over temperature is measured by a thermistor mounted
close to the inverter section in the power module. When the substrate temperature exceeds the nominal rated temperature, this
protection is activated.
Over voltage is detected by comparing attenuated dc bus
voltage with a pre-set reference. When the bus voltage exceeds
the nominal rated value, this protection is activated. The attenuated dc bus voltage is available to the user on the control
interface as VFB. Since this is the same node that is compared to
the reference, any external connections should be done through a
high impedance buffer stage.
If any of the protection features are activated, the TRIP signal
goes high activating the internal latch of the IR2233. This turns
off all gate outputs to the inverter and acknowledges the FAULT
to the controller.
Capacitor Soft Charge
A dc bus capacitor is connected to the rectifier bridge output
through an NTC. At power-up, the NTC limits the maximum
inrush current to the rated peak input current, though normal line
impedance will impact the inrush insignificantly. During normal
operation, current through the NTC reduces its resistance, hence
reducing its losses. In the event of a brief power loss, the NTC
will not limit the recharge of the bus because its temperature will
not have time to reduce back to ambient.
System Power Supply
A buck converter designed with the IR2152 self-oscillating
half-bridge driver generates VCC (15V) and VD (5V) for drive
and protection circuits. It draws its power from the midpoint of
the dc bus, which si regulated to half of the voltage. Both VCC
and VD are available at the control connector toupply microprocessor controls. Rated output current is the sum of ICC and ID.
Floating power supplies for high side devices are derived
through the bootstrap technique, simplifying power supply requirements.
Gate Drive Circuits
Gate drive for the inverter is implemented with an IR2233
monolithig 3-phase HVIC driver. An under voltage circuit
monitors the local power supply voltage. It will set the FAULT
and inhibit the PWM output in the event of a low power condition to protect the IGBTs from excessive power loss due to low
gate drive.
A short circuit buffer power supply counters the voltage drop
across the shunt in the negative dc bus, allowing the device to
have nominal gate voltage during short circuit. This will maintain the current to a detectable level.
The brake IGBT is generally switched at low frequency, so a
simple bipolar gate drive circuit is used to drive it.
Trip Reset
The FAULT signal can be removed by pulling down the RESET pin for 2 µs. This should be done only after all inputs,
IN1...IN6, are inactive. The system protections cannot be disabled by tying this pin to N because the fault logic takes
precedence over the reset.
page 11
IRPT2051
Interface With System Controller
All signals are referred to the negative dc bus (N). IN1...IN7
are TTL/CMOS compatible active low signals. Maximum voltage rating for these signals is 5V. All channels are provided
with pull-up resistors and can be used with open collector inputs.
FAULT is an open drain, active low signal, provided with a
pull-up and a red LED. Typical current sink capacity for this pin
is 5 mA. This pin should not be directly connected to an npn
transistor base as it would appear to always be in FAULT mode.
VFB and IFB are the scaled down dc bus voltage and bus current respectively. The on-board protection circuitry use these
signals for sensing fault conditions. Any connection to these
signals should be done through a high impedance buffer stag so
as not to disrupt the protection circuits.
Heat Sink Requirements
Figures 5a and 5b (page 6) show the thermal resistance of the
heat sink required for various output power levels and PWM
switching frequencies. Maximum total losses of the unit are also
shown.
This data assumes the following key operating conditions:
• The maximum continuous combined losses of the rectifier
and inverter occur at full pulse with modulation. These
losses set the maximum continuous operatiing temperature
of the heat sink.
• The maximum combined losses of the rectifier and inverter
at full PWM under overload set the incremental temperature rise of the heat sink during overload, which is limited
to 10°C due to ZTHSA.
• The minimum output frequency at which full overload current is to be delivered sets the peak IGB junction
temperatures.
• At low output frequency IGBT junction temperatures tends
to follow the instantaneous fluctuations of the output current. Thus, peak junction temperature rise increases as
output frequency decreases.
Voltage Rise During Braking
The motor will feed energy back to the DC link during electric braking, forcing DC bus voltage to rise above the level
defined by input line voltage. Deceleration of the motor must be
controlled by appropriate PWM control to keep the DC bus voltage within the rated maximum vaue. For high inertial loads, or
for very fast deceleration rates, this can be achieved by the brake
provided in the system by connecting an external braking resistor between terminals P and BR. IN7 controls the brake
transistor swtiching.
