The IRPT2051D Driver- Plus Board
tween the controller and the power stage. It contains the IGBT
gate drivers, protection circuitry, feedback, brake drive and local
power supply. The driver also interfaces to the AC input line. It
houses the DC link capacitors, NTC in-rush limiting thermistor,
and surge suppression MOVs.

gate signals for each phase. Any additional dead time necessary

all inverter gate drivers are disabled and latched. The FAULT
pin is also pulled low through an open drain which illuminates a
red LED. Gate drives must be enabled with an active low pulse

high (off condition). The FAULT condition can also be set by
the controller through an active high signal on the STOP pin.
After power-up, the RESET pin must be pulled low before any
input signals are activated.
earth-fault, over-temperature, or over-voltage conditions as
specified. Current signals are sensed through shunts in positive
and negative DC bus rails. Earth faults are sensed using the
high-side shunt and the signal is fed through an opto-isolator to
the protection circuitry. Over-voltage is sensed through a resis-
tor divider from the positive DC bus. Over-temperature
protection is obtained using a thermistor inside the power mod-
ule. A FAULT condition occurs inf the temperature of the
power module's IMS substrate exceeds the trip level. The sys-
tem is designed for 150% overload for one minute while
operating with the specified heat sinks. The controller should
shut off the PWM signals if the overload persists for more than
one minute.
available to the controller. The current feedback signal from the
low-side shunt is available on the IFB pin at 0.025 V/A. If filter-
ing of this signal is required, it should be done by adding a
high-impedance buffer stage between signal and filter. The DC
bus reference is provided on VFB. This reference has been
scaled down by a factor of 100 and should also be protected with
a high-impedance buffer stage.
