AC drive power stage module

Block diagram

Overview

Our integrated circuits and reference designs help you create an efficient, fully protected power stage module for alternating current (AC) drives. Our analog and embedded processing products enable improved motor control performance and exceed isolation and EMC requirements per IEC standards.

Design requirements

AC drive power stage modules often require:

  • Non-isolated and isolated gate drivers with high common mode transient immunity (CMTI) and built-in protection.
  • Precise current and voltage sense for torque control in sensorless operation.
  • Robust overcurrent protection against short circuit and shoot through events.
  • Efficient non-isolated and isolated power supplies with tight regulation.

DC link current & voltage sense

close

DC link current is measured to protect the inverter against over current and ground faults. Current measured on the DC positive bus needs functional isolation and its value is compared with current on DC negative bus to implement the protections. DC bus voltage is measured to detect overvoltage, under voltage and control the inverter as well as brake IGBT. Proper selection of op amp is critical to precisely measure the DC link current and voltage.
