Power modules are positioned as cost-effective solution for low power motor drive applications

International Rectifier (El Segundo, CA) introduced the μIPM-DIP family of highly integrated, compact Integrated Power Modules (IPM) for low power motor drive applications including fans, pumps, air purifiers and refrigerator compressor drives. Available in a compact 12 x 29mm SOP/DIP package, this solution leverages industry standard footprints and processes compatible with various PCB substrates. The family of 32 new devices features:

• Rugged and efficient high-voltage FredFET MOSFETs specifically optimized for variable frequency drives with voltage ratings of 250 V or 500 V.
• A high-voltage driver IC tuned to achieve optimal balance between EMI and switching losses.
• DC current ratings ranging up to 4.6 A to drive motors up to 150 W without a heat sink.
