1.5 The Differences between Previous Series and This Series (PSS**S92*6)
DIP Ver.6 has some differences against DIP Ver.4 (PS219A*) and DIP Ver.5 (PS219B*)
Main differences are described in Table 1-5-1, Table 1-5-2.

(1)DIP Ver.5 and DIP Ver.6 have built-in bootstrap diode (BSD) with current limiting resistor. So there aren't any
limitation about bootstrap capacitance like PS219A* has (22μF or less in the case of one long pulse initial
charging).
(2) Temperature protection function of both DIP Ver.5 and DIP Ver.6 is selectable from two functions. (They have
different model numbers.) One is conventional over temperature protection (OT), and the other is LVIC
temperature output function (VOT). OT function shutdowns all N-side IGBTs automatically when LVIC temperature
exceeds specified value (typ.120 °C). But VOT function cannot shutdown by itself in that case. So it is necessary
for system controller to monitor this VOT output and shutdown when the temperature reaches the protection level.
(3) Because of incorporating bootstrap diodes, a part of package was changed. (Just one dummy terminal was
added) But its package size, pin assignment and pin number weren’t changed, so the same PCB can be used with
small modification when replacing from Super min DIP Ver.4. (External bootstrap diodes and current limit resistors
should be removed in the case of replacing from PS2196*. And also if N-side common emitter type was used in
former PCB, it is necessary to change wiring from common emitter to open emitter wiring because of both DIP
Ver.5 and DIP Ver.6 have open emitter type only.

(2) Short circuit trip level tolerance of DIP Ver.6 is improved to 0.48±5%. By this improvement, DIP Ver.6 has wider overload
operating range.
If you use short circuit protection as a protection for degauss of motor, you can use at wider overload operating range due to
improve trip level tolerance as in Fig.1-5-1.

(7) Isolation voltage Isolation voltage of Super mini DIPIPM is the voltage between all shorted pins and copper surface of DIPIPM.
The maximum rating of isolation voltage of Super mini DIPIPM is 1500Vrms. But if such as convex shape heat
radiation fin will be used for enlarging clearance between outer terminals and heat radiation fin (2.5mm or more
is recommended), it is able to correspond isolation voltage 2500Vrms. Super mini DIPIPM is recognized by UL
at the condition 2500Vrms with convex shape heat radiation fin.

Tc (case temperature) is defined to be the temperature just beneath the specified power chip. Please mount a
thermocouple on the heat sink surface at the defined position to get accurate temperature information. Due to the
control schemes such different control between P and N-side, there is the possibility that highest Tc point is different
from above point. In such cases, it is necessary to change the measuring point to that under the highest power chip.

Note : Grease with good thermal conductivity and long-term endurance should be applied evenly with about +100μm~+200μm on the contacting surface of
DIPIPM and heat sink. The contacting thermal resistance between DIPIPM case and heat sink Rth(c-f) is determined by the thickness and the thermal
conductivity of the applied grease. For reference, Rth(c-f) is about 0.3K/W (per 1/6 module, grease thickness: 20μm, thermal conductivity: 1.0W/m•K).
The above data shows the thermal resistance between chip junction and case at steady state. The thermal
resistance goes into saturation in about 10 seconds. The unsaturated thermal resistance is called as transient
thermal impedance which is shown in Fig.2-1-3. Zth(j-c)* is the normalized value of the transient thermal
impedance. (Zth(j-c)*= Zth(j-c) / Rth(j-c)max)
For example, the IGBT transient thermal impedance of PSS15S92*6-AG in 0.3s is 3.7×0.8=3.0K/W.
The transient thermal impedance isn’t used for constantly current, but for short period current (ms order).

Note 1 : SC protection works only for N-side IGBT. Please select the external shunt resistance such that the SC trip-level is less than 1.7 times of the current rating.
Note 2 : DIPIPM don't shutdown IGBTs and output fault signal automatically when temperature rises excessively. When temperature exceeds the protective level that
user defined, controller (MCU) should stop the DIPIPM.
3 : When the LVIC temperature exceeds OT trip temperature level(OTt), OT protection works and Fo outputs. In that case if the heat sink dropped off or fixed
loosely, don't reuse that DIPIPM. (There is a possibility that junction temperature of power chips exceeded maximum Tj(150°C).
4 : Fault signal Fo outputs when SC, UV or OT protection works. Fo pulse width is different for each protection modes. At SC failure, Fo pulse width is a fixed
width (=minimum 20μs), but at UV or OT failure, Fo outputs continuously until recovering from UV or OT state. (But minimum Fo pulse width is 20μs.)
5 : It is necessary to select from temperature output function or over temperature protection about temperature protection.
Their part numbers are different. (e.g. PSS15S92F6-AG is the type with temperature output function and PSS15S92E6-AG is the type with over temperature
protection.)
*) Some specifications such as circuit current (ID, IDB), P-side Control supply under-voltage protection (UVDBt, UVDBr),
characteristic of Bootstrap Di (VF, R) are different between rated current 5A~20A and 30A, 35A. For more detail,
please refer the datasheet for each product.

Super Mini DIPIPM Ver.6 Series APPLICATION NOTE
2.2 Protective Functions and Operating Sequence
DIP Ver.6 has Short circuit (SC), Under Voltage of control supply (UV), Over Temperature (OT) and temperature
output (VOT) for protection function. The operating principle and sequence are described below.
2.2.1 Short Circuit Protection
1. General
DIP Ver.6 uses external shunt resistor for the current detection as shown in Fig.2-2-1. The internal protection
circuit inside the IC captures the excessive large current by comparing the CIN voltage generated at the shunt
resistor with the referenced SC trip voltage, and perform protection automatically. The threshold voltage trip level of
the SC protection Vsc(ref) is typ. 0.48V.
In case of SC protection happens, all the gates of N-side three phase IGBTs will be interrupted together with a
fault signal output. To prevent DIPIPM erroneous protection due to normal switching noise and/or recovery current, it
is necessary to set an RC filter (time constant: 1.5μ ~ 2μs) to the CIN terminal input (Fig.2-2-1, 2-2-2). Also, please
make the pattern wiring around the shunt resistor as short as possible.

3. Determination of Shunt Resistance
(1) Shunt resistance
The value of current sensing resistance is calculated by the following expression:
RShunt = VSC(ref) / SC
where VSC(ref) is the referenced SC trip voltage.
The maximum SC trip level SC(max) should be set less than the IGBT minimum saturation current which is 1.7
times as large as the rated current. For example, the SC(max) of PSS15S92*6-AG should be set to 15x1.7=25.5A.
The parameters (VSC(ref), RShunt) tolerance should be considered when designing the SC trip level.
For example of PSS15S92*6-AG, there is +/-0.025V tolerance in the spec of VSC(ref) as shown in Table 2-2-1.
Table 2-2-1 Specification for VSC(ref)
Condition
at Tj=25°C, VD=15V
(unit: V)
Min
0.455
Typ
0.480
Max
0.505
Then, the range of SC trip level can be calculated by the following expressions:
RShunt(min)=VSC(ref) max /SC(max)
then SC(typ) = VSC(ref) typ / RShunt(typ)
RShunt(typ)= RShunt(min) / 0.95*
RShunt(max)= RShunt(typ) x 1.05* then SC(min)= VSC(ref) min / RShunt(max)
*)This is the case that shunt resistance tolerance is within +/-5%.
So the SC trip level range is described as Table 2-2-2.

at Tj=25°C
(e.g. 19.8mΩ (Rshunt(min))= 0.505V (=VSC(max)) / 25.5A(=SC(max))
There is the possibility that the actual SC protection level becomes less than the calculated value. This is
considered due to the resonant signals caused mainly by parasitic inductance and parasitic capacity. It is
recommended to make a confirmation of the resistance by prototype experiment.
(2) RC Filter Time Constant
It is necessary to set an RC filter in the SC sensing circuit in order to prevent malfunction of SC protection due to
noise interference. The RC time constant is determined depending on the applying time of noise interference and
the SCSOA of the DIPIPM.
When the voltage drop on the external shunt resistor exceeds the SC trip level, the time (t1) that the CIN terminal
voltage rises to the referenced SC trip level can be calculated by the following expression:
VSC = R shunt ⋅ I c ⋅ (1 − ε
t1 = −τ ⋅ ln(1 −
−
VSC
R shunt ⋅ I c

)
)
Vsc : the CIN terminal input voltage, Ic : the peak current, τ : the RC time constant
On the other hand, the typical time delay t2 (from Vsc voltage reaches Vsc(ref) to IGBT gate shutdown) of IC is
shown in Table 2-2-3.

2.2.2 Control Supply UV Protection
The UV protection is designed to prevent unexpected operating behavior as described in Table 2-2-4.
Both P-side and N-side have UV protecting function. However, fault signal (Fo) output only corresponds to
N-side UV protection. Fo output continuously during UV state.
In addition, there is a noise filter (typ. 10μs) integrated in the UV protection circuit to prevent instantaneous
UV erroneous trip. Therefore, the control signals are still transferred in the initial 10μs after UV happened.
Table 2-2-4 DIPIPM operating behavior versus control supply voltage
Control supply voltage
Operating behavior
In this voltage range, built-in control IC may not work properly. Normal
operating of each protection function (UV, Fo output etc.) is not also assured.
Normally IGBT does not work. But external noise may cause DIPIPM malfunction
(turns ON), so DC-link voltage need to start up after control supply starts-up.
UV function becomes active and output Fo (N-side only).
Even if control signals are applied, IGBT does not work
IGBT can work. However, conducting loss and switching loss will increase, and
result extra temperature rise at this state.

IGBT works. However, switching speed becomes fast and saturation current

The control circuit will be destroyed.
Ripple Voltage Limitation of Control Supply
If high frequency noise superimposed to the control supply line, IC malfunction might happen and cause
DIPIPM erroneous operation. To avoid such problem, line ripple voltage should meet the following
specifications:
dV/dt ≤ +/-1V/μs,
Vripple≤2Vp-p

Precaution about this OT protection function
(1)This OT protection will not work effectively in the case of rapid temperature rise like motor lock or over current.
(This protection monitors LVIC temperature, so it cannot respond to rapid temperature rise of power chips.)
(2)If the cooling system is abnormal state (e.g. heat sink comes off, fixed loosely, or cooling fun stops) when OT
protection works, can't reuse the DIPIPM. (Because the junction temperature of power chips will exceeded
the maximum rating of Tj(150°C).)

2.2.4 Temperature output function VOT (PSS**S92F6-AG only)
(1) Usage of this function
This function measures the temperature of control LVIC by built in temperature sensor on LVIC.
The heat generated at IGBT and FWDi transfers to LVIC through molding resin of package and outer heat sink.
So LVIC temperature cannot respond to rapid temperature rise of those power chips effectively. (e.g. motor
lock, short circuit) It is recommended to use this function for protecting from slow excessive temperature rise
by such cooling system down and continuance of overload operation. （Replacement from the thermistor
which was mounted on outer heat sink currently）
[Note]
In this function, DIPIPM cannot shutdown IGBT and output fault signal by itself when temperature rises
excessively. When temperature exceeds the defined protection level, controller (MCU) should stop the DIPIPM.
(2) VOT characteristics
VOT output circuit, which is described in Fig.2-2-10, is the output of OP amplifier circuit. The current capability of
VOT output is described as Table 2-2-6. The characteristics of VOT output vs. LVIC temperature is linear
characteristics described in Fig.2-2-14. There are some cautions for using this function as below.

It is recommended to insert 5.1kΩ pull down resistor for getting linear output characteristics at lower temperature
than room temperature. When the pull down resistor is inserted between VOT and VNC(control GND), the extra
current calculated by VOT output voltage / pull down resistance flows as LVIC circuit current continuously. In the case

• In the case that the protection level exceeds control supply of the controller
In the case of using low voltage controller like 3.3V MCU, if it is necessary to set the trip VOT level to control supply
voltage (e.g. 3.3V) or more, there is the method of dividing the VOT output by resistance voltage divider circuit and
then inputting to A/D converter on MCU (Fig.2-2-13). In that case, sum of the resistances of divider circuit should be
as much as 5kΩ. About the necessity of clamp diode, we consider that the divided output will not exceed the supply
voltage of controller generally, so it will be unnecessary to insert the clump diode. But it should be judged by the
divided output level finally.

LVIC temperature (°C)
Fig.2-2-14 VOT output vs. LVIC temperature
As mentioned above, the heat of power chips transfers to LVIC through the heat sink and package, so the
relationship between LVIC temperature: Tic(=VOT output), case temperature: Tc(under the chip defined on datasheet),
and junction temperature: Tj depends on the system cooling condition, heat sink, control strategy, etc. For example,
their relationship example in the case of using the heat sink (Table 2-2-7) is described in Fig.2-2-15. This relationship
may be different due to the cooling conditions. So when setting the threshold temperature for protection, it is
necessary to get the relationship between them on your real system. And when setting threshold temperature Tic, it is
important to consider the protection temperature assures Tc≤100°C and Tj ≤150°C.

Control supply terminals for the built-in HVIC and LVIC.
In order to prevent malfunction caused by noise and ripple in the supply voltage,
a bypass capacitor with favorable frequency characteristics should be mounted
very closely to these terminals.
Carefully design the supply so that the voltage ripple caused by noise or by
system operation is within the specified minimum limitation.
It is recommended to insert a Zener diode (24V/1W) between each pair of control
supply terminals to prevent surge destruction.
Control ground terminal for the built-in HVIC and LVIC.
Ensure that line current of the power circuit does not flow through this terminal in
order to avoid noise influences.
Connect only one VNC terminal (9 or 16pin) to the GND, and leave another one
open.
Control signal input terminals.Voltage input type.
These terminals are internally connected to Schmitt trigger circuit.
The wiring of each input should be as short as possible to protect the DIPIPM
from noise interference.
Use RC filter in case of signal oscillation. (Pay attention to threshold voltage of
input terminal, because input circuit has pull down resistor (min 3.3kΩ))
For inverter part SC protection, input the potential of shunt resistor to CIN
terminal through RC filter (for the noise immunity).
The time constant of RC filter is recommended to be up to 2μs.
Fault signal output terminal.
Fo signal line should be pulled up to a 5V logic supply with over 5kΩ resistor (for
limitting the Fo sink current IFo up to 1mA.) Normally 10kΩ is recommended.
LVIC temperature is ouput by analog signal.
This terminal is connected ti the ouput of OP amplifer internally.
It is recommended to connect 5.1kΩ pulldown resistor if output linearlity is
necessary under room temperature.
DC-link positive power supply terminal.
Internally connected to the collectors of all P-side IGBTs.
To suppress surge voltage caused by DC-link wiring or PCB pattern inductance,
smoothing capacitor should be located very closely to the P and N terminal of
DIPIPM. It is also effective to add small film capacitor with good frequency
characteristics.
Open emitter terminal of each N-side IGBT
Usually, these terminals are connected to the power GND through individual
shunt resistor.
Inverter output terminals for connection to inverter load (e.g. motor).
Each terminal is internally connected to the intermidiate point of the
corresponding IGBT half bridge arm.
Note: Use oscilloscope to check voltage waveform of each power supply terminals and P&N terminals, the time division of OSC
should be set to about 1μs/div. Please ensure the voltage (including surge) not exceed the specified limitation.

2.4.2 Mounting Method and Precautions
When installing the module to the heat sink, excessive or uneven fastening force might apply stress to inside chips.
Then it will lead to a broken or degradation of the chips or insulation structure. The recommended fastening
procedure is shown in Fig.2-4-1. When fastening, it is necessary to use the torque wrench and fasten up to the
specified torque. And pay attention not to have any foreign particle on the contact surface between the module and
the heat sink. Even if the fixing of heatsink was done by proper procedure and condition, there is a possibility of
damaging the package because of tightening by unexpected excessive toruque or tucking particle. For ensuring
safety it is recommended to conduct the confirmation test(e.g. insulation inspection) on the final product after fixing
the DIPIPM with the heatsink.

In order to get effective heat dissipation, it is necessary to enlarge the contact area as much as possible to
minimize the contact thermal resistance. Regarding the heat sink flatness (warp/concavity and convexity) on the
module installation surface, the surface finishing-treatment should be within Rz12.
Evenly apply thermally-conductive grease with 100μ-200μm thickness over the contact surface between a
module and a heat sink, which is also useful for preventing corrosion. Furthermore, the grease should be with
stable quality and long-term endurance within wide operating temperature range. The contacting thermal
resistance between DIPIPM case and heat sink Rth(c-f) is determined by the thickness and the thermal
conductivity of the applied grease. For reference, Rth(c-f) is about 0.3K/W (per 1/6 module, grease thickness:
20μm, thermal conductivity: 1.0W/m·k). When applying grease and fixing heat sink, pay attention not to take air into
grease. It might lead to make contact thermal resistance worse or loosen fixing in operation.

2.4.3 Soldering Conditions
The recommended soldering condition is mentioned as below.
(Note: The reflow soldering cannot be recommended for DIPIPM.)
(1) Flow (wave) Soldering
DIPIPM is tested on the condition described in Table 2-4-3 about the soldering thermostability, so the
recommended conditions for flow (wave) soldering are soldering temperature is up to 265°C and the immersion
time is within 11s.
However, the condition might need some adjustment based on flow condition of solder, the speed of the
conveyer, the land pattern and the through-hole shape on the PCB, etc.
It is necessary to confirm whether it is appropriate or not for your real PCB finally.
Table 2-4-3 Reliability test specification
Item
Condition
Soldering thermostability
260±5°C, 10±1s
(2) Hand soldering
Since the temperature impressed upon the DIPIPM may change based on the soldering iron types (wattages,
shape of soldering tip, etc.) and the land pattern on PCB, the unambiguous hand soldering condition cannot be
decided.
As a general requirement of the temperature profile for hand soldering, the temperature of the root of the
DIPIPM terminal should be kept 150°C or less for considering glass transition temperature (Tg) of the package
molding resin and the thermal withstand capability of internal chips. Therefore, it is necessary to check the
DIPIPM terminal root temperature, solderability and so on in your real PCB, when configure the soldering
temperature profile. (It is recommended to set the soldering time as short as possible.)
For reference, the evaluation example of hand soldering with 50W soldering iron is described as below.
[Evaluation method]
a. Sample: Super mini DIPIPM
b. Evaluation procedure
- Put the soldering tip of 50W iron (temperature set to 350/400°C) on the terminal within 1mm from the toe.
(The lowest heat capacity terminal (=control terminal) is selected.)
- Measure the temperature rise of the terminal root part by the thermocouple installed on the terminal root.

Power GND wiring
Fig.3-1-2 Interface circuit example except for common emitter type
If control GND is connected with power GND by common broad pattern, it may cause malfunction by power GND fluctuation.
It is recommended to connect control GND and power GND at only a point N1 (near the terminal of shunt resistor).
(2) It is recommended to insert a Zener diode D1(24V/1W) between each pair of control supply terminals to prevent surge destruction.
(3) To prevent surge destruction, the wiring between the smoothing capacitor and the P, N1 terminals should be as short as possible.
Generally a 0.1-0.22μF snubber capacitor C3 between the P-N1 terminals is recommended.
(4) R1, C4 of RC filter for preventing protection circuit malfunction is recommended to select tight tolerance, temp-compensated type.
The time constant R1C4 should be set so that SC current is shut down within 2μs. (1.5μs~2μs is general value.) SC interrupting time
might vary with the wiring pattern, so the enough evaluation on the real system is necessary.
(5) To prevent malfunction, the wiring of A, B, C should be as short as possible.
(6) The point D at which the wiring to CIN filter is divided should be near the terminal of shunt resistor. NU, NV, NW terminals should be
connected at near NU, NV, NW terminals.
(7) All capacitors should be mounted as close to the terminals as possible. (C1: good temperature, frequency characteristic electrolytic type
and C2:0.22μ-2μF, good temperature, frequency and DC bias characteristic ceramic type are recommended.)
(8) Input drive is High-active type. There is a minimum 3.3kΩ pull-down resistor in the input circuit of IC. To prevent malfunction, the wiring
of each input should be as short as possible. When using RC coupling circuit, make sure the input signal level meet the turn-on and
turn-off threshold voltage.
(9) Fo output is open drain type. It should be pulled up to MCU or control power supply (e.g. 5V,15V) by a resistor that makes IFo up to 1mA.
(IFO is estimated roughly by the formula of control power supply voltage divided by pull-up resistance. In the case of pulled up to 5V,
10kΩ (5kΩ or more) is recommended.)
(10) Thanks to built-in HVIC, direct coupling to MCU without any optocoupler or transformer isolation is possible.
(11) Two VNC terminals (9 & 16 pin) are connected inside DIPIPM, please connect either one to the 15V power supply GND outside and
leave another one open.
(12) If high frequency noise superimposed to the control supply line, IC malfunction might happen and cause DIPIPM erroneous operation.
To avoid such problem, line ripple voltage should meet dV/dt ≤+/-1V/μs, Vripple≤2Vp-p.

A 3.3kΩ(min) pull-down resistor is built-in each input
circuits of the DIPIPM as shown in Fig.3-1-5 , so
external pull-down resistor is not needed.
Furthermore, by lowering the turn on and turn off
threshold value of input signal as shown in Table 3-1-1,
a direct coupling to 3V class microcomputer or DSP
becomes possible.

3.1.6 Snubber Circuit
In order to prevent DIPIPM from destruction by extra surge, the wiring length between the smoothing
capacitor and DIPIPM P terminal – N1 points (shunt resistor terminal) should be as short as possible.
Also, a 0.1μ~0.22μF/630V snubber capacitor should be mounted in the DC-link and near to P, N1.
There are two positions ((1)or(2)) to mount a snubber capacitor as shown in Fig.3-1-8. Snubber
capacitor should be installed in the position (2) so as to suppress surge voltage effectively. However,
the charging and discharging currents generated by the wiring inductance and the snubber capacitor
will flow through the shunt resistor, which might cause erroneous protection if this current is large
enough.
In order to suppress the surge voltage maximally, the wiring at part-A (including shunt resistor
parasitic inductance) should be as small as possible. A better wiring example is shown in location (3).

3.1.7 Recommended Wiring Method around Shunt Resistor
External shunt resistor is employed to detect short-circuit accident. A longer wiring between the shunt resistor and
DIPIPM causes so much large surge that might damage built-in IC. To decrease the pattern inductance, the wiring
between the shunt resistor and DIPIPM should be as short as possible and using low inductance type resistor such
as SMD resistor instead of long-lead type resistor.
NU, NV, NW should be connected each other at near terminals.

It is recommended to make the inductance of this part
(including the shunt resistor) under 10nH.

(1) Influence of the part-A wiring
The ground of N-side IGBT gate is VNC. If part-A wiring pattern in Fig.3-1-11 is too long, extra voltage generated by
the wiring parasitic inductance will result the potential of IGBT emitter variation during switching operation. Please
install shunt resistor as close to the N terminal as possible.
(2) Influence of the part-B wiring
The part-B wiring affects SC protection level. SC protection works by detecting the voltage of the CIN terminals. If
part-B wiring is too long, extra surge voltage generated by the wiring inductance will lead to deterioration of SC
protection level. It is necessary to connect CIN and VNC terminals directly to the two ends of shunt resistor and avoid
long wiring.
(3) Influence of the part-C wiring pattern
C1R2 filter is added to remove noise influence occurring on shunt resistor. Filter effect will dropdown and noise will
easily superimpose on the wiring if part-C wiring is too long. It is necessary to install the C1R2 filter near CIN, VNC
terminals as close as possible.
(4) Influence of the part-D wiring pattern
Part-D wiring pattern gives influence to all the items described above, maximally shorten the GND wiring is expected.

3.1.9 Parallel operation of DIPIPM
Fig.3-1-13 shows the circuitry of parallel connection of two DIPIPMs. Route (1) and (2) indicate the gate charging path
of low-side IGBT in DIPIPM No.1 & 2 respectively. In the case of DIPIPM 1, the parasitic inductance becomes large by
long wiring and it might have a negative effect on DIPIPM's switching operation. (Charging operation of bootstrap
capacitor for high-side might be affected too.) Also, such a wiring makes DIPIPM be affected by noise easily, then it might
lead to malfunction. If more DIPIPMs are connected in parallel, GND pattern becomes longer and the influence to other
circuit (protection circuit etc.) by the fluctuation of GND potential is conceivable, therefore parallel connection is not
recommended.
Because DIPIPM doesn't consider the fluctuation of characteristics between each phase definitely, it cannot be
recommended to drive same load by parallel connection with other phase IGBT or IGBT of other DIPIPM.

3.2 Power Loss and Thermal Dissipation Calculation
3.2.1 Power Loss Calculation
Simple expressions for calculating average power loss are given below:
● Scope
The power loss calculation intends to provide users a way of selecting a matched power device for their
VVVF inverter application. However, it is not expected to use for limit thermal dissipation design.
● Assumptions
(1) PWM controlled VVVF inverter with sinusoidal output;
(2) PWM signals are generated by the comparison of sine waveform and triangular waveform.
(3) Duty amplitude of PWM signals varies between
1− D 1+ D
(%/100), (D: modulation depth).
～

(4) Output current various with Icp·sinx and it does not include ripple.
(5) Power factor of load output current is cosθ, ideal inductive load is used for switching.
● Expressions Derivation
PWM signal duty is a function of phase angle x as
1 + D × sin x
which is equivalent to the output voltage
2
variation. From the power factor cosθ, the output current and its corresponding PWM duty at any phase angle x
can be obtained as below:
Output current = Icp × sin x
1 + D × sin( x + θ )
PWM Duty =
2
Then, VCE(sat) and VEC at the phase x can be calculated by using a linear approximation:
Vce( sat ) = Vce( sat )(@ Icp × sin x)
Vec = (−1) × Vec(@ Iecp(= Icp) × sin x)
Thus, the static loss of IGBT is given by:


Attention of applying the power loss simulation for inverter designs
・ Divide the output current period into fine-steps and calculate the losses at each step based on the actual
values of PWM duty, output current, VCE(sat), VEC, and Psw corresponding to the output current. The
worst condition is most important.
・ PWM duty depends on the signal generating way.
・ The relationship between output current waveform or output current and PWM duty changes with the
way of signal generating, load, and other various factors. Thus, calculation should be carried out on the
basis of actual waveform data.
・ VCE(sat),VEC and Psw(on, off) should be the values at Tj=125°C.

CHAPTER 4 Bootstrap Circuit Operation
4.1 Bootstrap Circuit Operation
For three phase inverter circuit driving, normally four isolated control supplies (three for P-side driving and
one for N-side driving) are necessary. But using floating control supply with bootstrap circuit can reduce the
number of isolated control supplies from four to one (N-side control supply).
Bootstrap circuit consists of a bootstrap diode(BSD), a bootstrap capacitor(BSC) and a current limiting
resistor. (Super mini DIPIPM Ver.6 series integrates BSD and limiting resistor and can make bootstrap circuit
by adding outer BSC only.) It uses the BSC as a control supply for driving P-side IGBT. The BSC supplies gate
charge when P-side IGBT turning ON and circuit current of logic circuit on P-side driving IC (Fig.4-1-2). Since a
capacitor is used as substitute for isolated supply, its supply capability is limited. This floating supply driving
with bootstrap circuit is suitable for small supply current products like DIPIPM.
Charge consumed by driving circuit is re-charged from N-side 15V control supply to BSC via current limiting
resistor and BSD when voltage of output terminal (U, V or W) goes down to GND potential in inverter operation.
But there is the possibility that enough charge doesn't perform due to the conditions such as switching
sequence, capacitance of BSC and so on. Deficient charge leads to low voltage of BSC and might work under
voltage protection (UV). This situation makes the loss of P-side IGBT increase by low gate voltage or stop
switching. So it is necessary to consider and evaluate enough for designing bootstrap circuit. For more detail
information about driving by the bootstrap circuit, refer the DIPIPM application note "Bootstrap Circuit Design
Manual"
The BSD characteristics for Super mini DIPIPM Ver.6 series and the circuit current characteristics in
switching situation of P-side IGBT are described as below.

4.2 Bootstrap Supply Circuit Current at Switching State
Bootstrap supply circuit current IDB at steady state is maximum 0.1mA for PSS**S92*6-AG series (This is only for
rated current 5A~20A. IDB specification for rated current 30A and 35A is different. For more detail, please refer the
datasheet for each product.). But at switching state, because gate charge and discharge are repeated by switching,
the circuit current exceeds 0.1mA and increases proportional to carrier frequency. For reference, Fig.4-2-1~4
shows IDB - carrier frequency fc characteristics for PSS05S92*6-AG, PSS10S*92*6-AG, PSS15S*92*6-AG and
PSS20S*92*6-AG.

4.3 Note for designing the bootstrap circuit
When each device for bootstrap circuit is designed, it is necessary to consider various conditions such as
temperature characteristics, change by lifetime, variation and so on. Note for designing these devices are listed as
below. For more detail information about driving by the bootstrap circuit, refer the DIPIPM application note "Bootstrap
Circuit Design Manual"
(1) Bootstrap capacitor
Electrolytic capacitors are used for BSC generally. And recently ceramic capacitors with large capacitance are also
applied. But DC bias characteristic of the ceramic capacitor when applying DC voltage is considerably different from
that of electrolytic capacitor. (Especially large capacitance type) Some differences of capacitance characteristics
between electrolytic and ceramic capacitors are listed in Table 4-3-1.

DC bias characteristic of electrolytic capacitor is not matter. But it is necessary to note ripple capability by repetitive
charge and discharge, life time which is greatly affected by ambient temperature and so on. Above characteristics are
just example data which are obtained from the WEB, please refer to the capacitor manufacturers about detailed
characteristics.
(2) Bootstrap diode
DIP Ver.6 integrates bootstrap diode for P-side driving supply. This BSD incorporates current limiting resistor. So
there isn't any limitation about bootstrap capacitance like former PS219A* has (22μF or less in the case of one long
pulse initial charging). The VF-IF characteristics (rated current 5A~20A, and rated current 30A, 35A including voltage
drop by built-in current limiting resistor) is shown in Fig.4-3-1, Fig.4-3-2, Table 4-3-2 and Table 4-3-3.

6.2 Handling Precautions
！
Cautions
Transportation
·Put package boxes in the correct direction. Putting them upside down, leaning them or giving
them uneven stress might cause electrode terminals to be deformed or resin case to be
damaged.
·Throwing or dropping the packaging boxes might cause the devices to be damaged.
·Wetting the packaging boxes might cause the breakdown of devices when operating. Pay
attention not to wet them when transporting on a rainy or a snowy day.
Storage
·We recommend temperature and humidity in the ranges 5-35°C and 45-75%, respectively, for
the storage of modules. The quality or reliability of the modules might decline if the storage
conditions are much different from the above.
Long storage
·When storing modules for a long time (more than one year), keep them dry. Also, when using
them after long storage, make sure that there is no visible flaw, stain or rust, etc. on their
exterior.
Surroundings
·Keep modules away from places where water or organic solvent may attach to them directly
or where corrosive gas, explosive gas, fine dust or salt, etc. may exist. They might cause
serious problems.
Flame
resistance
·The epoxy resin and the case materials are flame-resistant type (UL standard 94-V0), but
they are not noninflammable.
Static electricity
·ICs and power chips with MOS gate structure are used for the DIPIPM power modules.
Please keep the following notices to prevent modules from being damaged by static
electricity.
(1) Precautions against the device destruction caused by the ESD
When the ESD of human bodies, packaging and etc. are applied to terminal, it may damage
and destroy devices. The basis of anti-electrostatic is to inhibit generating static electricity
possibly and quick dissipation of the charged electricity.
·Containers that charge static electricity easily should not be used for transit and for storage.
·Terminals should be always shorted with a carbon cloth or the like until just before using the
module. Never touch terminals with bare hands.
·Should not be taking out DIPIPM from tubes until just before using DIPIPM and never touch
terminals with bare hands.
·During assembly and after taking out DIPIPM from tubes, always earth the equipment and
your body. It is recommended to cover the work bench and its surrounding floor with earthed
conductive mats.
·When the terminals are open on the printed circuit board with mounted modules, the modules
might be damaged by static electricity on the printed circuit board.
·If using a soldering iron, earth its tip.
(2)Notice when the control terminals are open
·When the control terminals are open, do not apply voltage between the collector and emitter.
It might cause malfunction.
·Short the terminals before taking a module off.
