FSAM20SH60A
TM
SPM (Smart Power Module)
General Description
Features
FSAM20SH60A is an advanced smart power module
(SPM) that Fairchild has newly developed and designed to
provide very compact and high performance ac motor
drives mainly targeting high speed low-power inverter-
driven application like washing machines. It combines
optimized circuit protection and drive matched to low-loss
IGBTs. Highly effective short-circuit current detection/
protection is realized through the use of advanced current
sensing IGBT chips that allow continuous monitoring of the
IGBTs current. System reliability is further enhanced by the
built-in over-temperature monitoring and integrated under-
voltage lock-out protection. The high speed built-in HVIC
provides opto-coupler-less IGBT gate driving capability that
further reduce the overall size of the inverter system design.
In addition the incorporated HVIC facilitates the use of
single-supply drive topology enabling the FSAM20SH60A
to be driven by only one drive supply voltage without
negative bias. Inverter current sensing application can be
achieved due to the divided negative dc terminals.
