DESCRIPTION
The Aeroflex-Plainview ACT5101-1 is a high voltage 3 phase brushless DC motor drive that combines a 500VDC,
50A high power output stage along with a low power digital input and gate drive stages. A digital lock-out feature
protects the output stage from accidental cross-conduction thus preventing shoot-through conditions. The
ACT5101-1 also includes a floating gate drive design for each upper and lower transistor. On-board gate drive
supplies provide a continuous floating voltage for each upper and lower transistor, even during a motor stall.
The high power output stage rated at 500VDC, 50A is capable of delivering over 25KW to the load. This is
accomplished through the use of high power IGBTs with ultra-fast recovery rectifiers in parallel.
The ACT5101-1 utilizes power hybrid technology to provide the highest levels of reliability and lightest weight
while requiring the smallest amount of board space. The ACT5101-1 is available with military processing and
operates over the -55 to +125°C temperature range.
This makes the ACT5101-1 ideal for all military, space, and commercial avionics applications. These include
electro-hydrostatic actuators (EHA's) and electro-mechanical actuators (EMA's) for flight surface control, missile
fin actuators, thrust vector control, electric brakes, fuel and cooling pumps. Additional applications include
environmental conditioning blowers, radar positioning, solar panel positioning, and cryogenic cooler pumps. The
ACT5101-1 is therefore especially suitable for use in applications for all military tank upgrades, helicopters, planes
and new commercial avionics using 270VDC as the main power.

DIGITAL INPUT STAGE
The ACT5101-1 offers complete flexibility by allowing the user to turn on/off each of the 6 IGBTs in any order or
combination desired which enables the hybrid to be commutated in a 6 step trapezoidal mode. The only unacceptable
combination would be to turn on an upper and lower transistor of the same phase. This is not a desirable condition for
normal operation and is therefore not allowed. The ACT5101-1 has a digital lockout feature that prevents turn-on of
two in-line transistors. Damage to one or both of the transistors would occur if this protection circuitry was not present
in the hybrid. As a safety precaution, it is still recommended that a 500nsec dead time be installed between commands
at the inputs of the upper and lower transistors of the same phase. This will compensate for any lag in transistor turn-off
due to the inductive load.
The SD input allows the user to enable/disable the drive stage of the ACT5101-1 on demand. This input can be
incorporated into the user's temperature or current monitoring circuitry to shutdown the hybrid if excessive current or
case temperatures are sensed.
The digital input circuits are of the Schmitt trigger type with hysteresis, thus greatly enhancing the input noise
immunity. The inputs are internally pulled up to 15 volts so that an uncommitted input is sensed as "OFF", providing a
measure of protection against an accidental input disconnect.
GATE DRIVE
The ACT5101-1 includes a gate drive supply which provides a floating voltage for each upper and lower transistor.
This constant voltage allows the motor to be operated at very low duty cycles or driven into a stall without any loss of
upper or lower gate drive. This performance could not be obtained with only a conventional boot strap design.
POWER OUTPUT STAGE
IGBTs (insulated gate bipolar transistors) are technically similar to bipolars and MOSFETS. An IGBT is a composite
of a transistor with an N-channel MOSFET connected to the base of a PNP transistor. Like the MOSFET, it offers high
input impedance and requires low input drive current. IGBT conduction losses are low, as with bipolar technology, and
IGBT voltage drops are much lower compared with those of MOSFETs. Consequently, the IGBT offers a high current
density. With a smaller die size than the MOSFET, it can handle the same current rating. Unlike MOSFETS, IGBTs
have no intrinsic body diode. The ACT5101-1 includes 35nsec fast recovery rectifiers in parallel across each of the 6
IGBTs to carry the reverse current when the IGBT is turned off.
It is important for the user to observe the Absolute Maximum ratings of the ACT5101-1 so that the voltage and current
rating is not exceeded. If over-voltage/over-current protection is desired it must be implemented external to the
ACT5101-1. Figure 2 shows the ACT5101-1 output current capability vs. case temperature.

MECHANICAL
The ACT5101-1 construction utilizes only the highest quality materials and manufacturing available to ensure a high
reliability, robust power hybrid design. The case is selected for best thermal conductivity, hermeticity, and
voltage/current carrying capability. The case is electrically isolated from the circuit and can withstand 1500VAC from
pin to case, therefore no insulating pads or washers are required for mounting.
In order to remove the heat being generated from the ACT5101-1, it must be bolted down to the motor, a heat sink or
the actual system chassis such as a missile structure or aircraft wing rib for example. Thermally conductive grease or a
"Sil-pad" is recommended between the hybrid case baseplate and its mounting surface to fill in any surface
imperfections and improve the heat transfer from case-to-heat sink. It is important to keep the temperature at this
interface no greater than +125°C in order to maintain safe semi-conductor junction temperatures.
The leads of the ACT5101-1 can be formed upward, away from the baseplate, so that a PC board can be mounted
directly above it. A wiring harness can also be hand-wired and soldered directly to the leads of the ACT5101-1 if this is
preferred.
