Mitsubishi Electric IPM (intelligent power module) application manual, introduces IPM structure, working principle, rated values and characteristics, safe working area, protection functions, selection, control circuit power, interface circuit and so on
The document introduces the Intelligent Power Module (IPM) and explains its role as a modern replacement for traditional IGBT modules. It covers the basic structure, switching characteristics and the advantages of using MOSFET‑based IPM technology in high‑frequency applications.
Detailed sections describe the IPM's rated parameters, protection functions (over‑voltage, over‑current, short‑circuit, etc.), control input requirements and typical application circuits. The note also provides design considerations for minimizing parasitic inductance and ensuring reliable operation at high switching frequencies. This manual is written in Chinese.
