FPAL15SH60 is an advanced smart power module (SPM)
that Fairchild has newly developed and designed to provide
very compact and low cost, yet high performance ac motor
drives mainly targeting high speed low-power inverterdriven application like washing machines. It combines
optimized circuit protection and drive matched to low-loss
IGBTs. Highly effective short-circuit current detection/
protection is realized through the use of advanced current
sensing IGBT chips that allow continuous monitoring of the
IGBTs current. System reliability is further enhanced by the
built-in over-temperature and integrated under-voltage
lock-out protection. The high speed built-in HVIC prov ides
opto-coupler-less IGBT gate driving capability that further
reduce the overall size of the inverter system design. In
addition the incorporated HVIC facilitates the use of singlesupply drive topology enabling the FPAL15SH60 to be
driven by only one drive supply voltage without negative
bias.
