1.2.7
The following FAULT protection is provided which automatically disables all firing
independent of firing commands.
TABLE 1-4:
Reset of a FAULT is done by asserting the ISO_RESET line of the 37-pin connector.
This should be done for a minimum time of 2 µs. The RESET must be carried out in
coordination with the SPI handling routine of the dsPIC device to ensure correct
synchronization of the serial interface providing the isolated voltage feedback (see
Section 1.5.7.2 “Isolated Voltage Feedback”).
Note that the fault levels are set to represent abnormal operation. Operation of the
system just beneath the trip levels may be beyond the thermal capability of the
system. See Section 1.4 “Current and Power Limitations” for details.
1.2.8
As far as the inverter power devices are concerned, it is the instantaneous tempera-
tures of their junctions that matter for correct operation and reliability. As the current
that flows through a particular power device changes through an electrical cycle, so
does the loss. At high fundamental output frequencies (e.g., 60 Hz), the devices have
sufficient thermal "mass" to smooth out much of the effect of the variation in loss, so
that the peak device junction is due to the (much lower) average dissipation. As the
output frequency reduces, the peak device junction temperature reaches the worst
case loss.
It is common practice to include a stall detection algorithm in software. This is
designed to not only protect the power components, but also the motor from thermal
overload. As it is impractical to include stall detection in hardware that maintains
flexibility for development but still provides 100% protection, it is assumed that the
software in the dsPIC device provides this feature. The algorithm should monitor rotor
speed and cause a system trip if the rotor speed is at or near zero for greater than an
appropriate length of time while the inverter is energized. A stall trip time of 2 seconds
is suggested.

* If a large rate of change of current occurs due to the use of a load with low
inductance, then the voltage across the self-inductance of the shunts will cause
trips to occur at a lower level than that stated.
Note: If SHUNT OVERCURRENT trips are occurring, but not HALL

Operation at Low Output Frequencies and Stall
OVERCURRENT trips, this may indicate that an inverter shoot-through is
occurring. The user should immediately remove AC power from the system
and check that the correct 2 µs dead time exists on the inverter firing signals
using an oscilloscope.
