International Rectifier, IR introduced a new generation of energy-efficient Intelligent Power Modules (IPM). The new second generation (Gen2) family of IRAM System-In-Package (SIP) IPMs shrinks and simplifies the design of appliance motor drive applications including air conditioners, fans, compressors and washing machines.
Leveraging IR’s advanced Trench Insulated-Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBTs) and next-generation three-phase gate driver IC, the IRAM SiP1A Gen2 modules also feature state-of-the-art thermo-mechanical technology to further improve thermal performance and system efficiency by delivering increased power density and enhanced system ruggedness and reliability. The new devices are pin-to-pin compatible with the existing IRAM SiP1A series.
The new Gen2 IRAM modules are an addition to IR’s iMOTION™ design platform which integrates digital, analog and power technologies together in a flexible, mixed signal chipset to simplify motor control designs and bring energy-efficient, cost-effective solutions to market faster.
