FSAM20SL60 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 low speed low-power inverter-driven
application like air conditioners. 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 provides optocoupler-
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 single-supply drive
topology enabling the FSAM20SL60 to be driven by only
one drive supply voltage without negative bias. Inverter
current sensing application can be achieved due to the
divided negative dc terminals.
