RC-Drives

Cost-Optimized IGBT for Consumer Drive Application

1 Introduction and Short Description of the Product Family

The RC-Drives IGBT technology was released by Infineon at the end of 2009 as a cost-

optimized solution to address the price-sensitive Consumer drives market. This basic technology

provides outstanding performance in BLDC motor drives adopting block commutation–type of

modulations, were one or both IGBT in the half-bridge are left conducting for 120° of the motor

electrical angle (Dae-Woong Chung et al., IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON INDUSTRIAL

ELECTRONICS, VOL. 46, No. 3, June 1999). Thanks to the low conduction losses of both IGBT

and integrated diode the overall losses are drastically reduced. This type of control is commonly

found in Fridge compressors: by limiting the hard switching events the dV/dt and dI/dt

commutation slopes are avoided, therefore the harmonic content injected into the motor

windings (hence the EMI) is reduced. Below a typical example of this type of commutation found

on a 100W commercial fridge compressor:

RC-Drives

Cost-Optimized IGBT for Consumer Drive Application

Another application that benefits from the low on-state losses or the RC-Drives is found in

Domestic Aircon systems: the ~1.5 kW BLDC compressor is driven by IGBTs switched by full

sinusoidal PWM hard switching at moderate switching frequencies of 5 to 8 kHz. Again in this

case a device optimized for low conduction losses provides an overall loss reduction.

However the trend observed in low power drives for outdoor and indoor fan of domestic Aircon

systems as well as industrial funs and pumps up to ~200W is to increase the PWM switching

frequency. The reason is twofold: on one side the size of the output filter can be reduced by

keeping the same current ripple. On the other side in small motor drives adopting sensor-less

FOC (Field Oriented Control), were a high dynamic control (torque and speed) of the PMSM

motor is required, the higher switching frequency allows to increase the sampling rate of current

and hence the accuracy of reconstructed rotor position.

In order to meet the rising demands of the IGBTs for the low power motor drive consumer

market, a new version of the RC-Drives IGBT is developed: the IGBT and diode losses are

optimized to reduce the inverter losses at switching frequencies of 18~20kHz. The new family is

called RC-DF, and released in the current classes from 2.5A to 15A in D-PAK packages.

2 Static and Dynamic behavior

2.1 Static Behavior

Due to the optimization for fast switching, the V_CEsatof the RC-DF is increased compared to the

RC-D. However for the target inverter applications in the range of ~100W the RMS currents are

usually limited below 1A and here the V_CEsatincrease is limited to ~ 200mV both at 25 °C and

175°C. A negative temperature coefficient of V_CEsatis observed in this current range, contributing

to a reduction of conduction losses in normal operating conditions, with junction temperature Tj

typically ranging from 60 to 100°C.

2.2 Dynamic Behavior

The RC-DF maintains the smooth switching behavior and Rg controllability of the basic RC-D

technology, by providing drastically reduced turn-off losses of the IGBT. The internal diode is

also optimized to reduce the turn-on losses. The devices are characterized in a classical half-

bridge test circuit with inductive load: the LS IGBT (DUT) is commutated over the HS diode.

Therefore the Diode switching improvement is visible in the IGBT turn-on behavior (see below).

Figure 3: Dynamic switching behavior as a function of external Rg.

The turn-on and turn-off waveforms are clearly showing significantly faster switching: both the

tail current of the IGBT, the Qrr, Irrm and trr of the integrated diode are drastically reduced.

3 In-circuit Application Test on 200W Motor Drive board

3.1 Efficiency

In order to verify the improvement of the RC-DF in a real application conditions, the new devices

were tested on a demo board developed by Infineon and used as test bench to simulate a real

Air-conditioning outdoor fan. The board is designed for a 200W output and consists of an input

rectifier stage, inverter stage and output filter. The IGBTs are driven by a 600V 3-phase driver IC

from Infineon (6ED003L06-F), and the modulation pattern is provided by an 8 Bit Infineon

Microcontroller (XC-878) mounted on an external card. No heat-sink is required, just thermal

Vias through the PCB. The control method is sensor-less FOC using a single shunt-based

feedback loop. The board is driving a 200W induction motor coupled to an adjustable DC brake,

which allows controlling the output power from the inverter. The efficiency is monitored by a

Siemens Power meter and case temperature is monitored by an IR camera.

Figure 5: Test set-up for the application measurements

RC-Drives

Cost-Optimized IGBT for Consumer Drive Application

Already at switching frequency of 10 kHz a clear efficiency improvement is observed. At the

target f_sw of 18 kHz the RC-DF provides 2.8% improvement at 50W input power and 1.6% at

100W:

+2.8%

+1.6%

Figure 6: Inverter efficiency as a function of input power and switching frequency

3.2 Thermal behavior

The increased efficiency for the RC-DF translates in lower case temperature, as verified by

thermal images with Infrared camera:

-20°C

-17°C

Figure 7: Case temperature as a function of input power and switching frequency

The RC-DF shows outstanding thermal performance providing lower case temperature over the

entire frequency range: at the target switching frequency of 18 kHz, the case temperature is

lowered by 20°C.

RC-Drives

Cost-Optimized IGBT for Consumer Drive Application

The temperature distribution is quite uniform, as demonstrated by detailed analysis of the

thermal images:

Figure 8: thermal images at Pin=50W, f_sw=20 kHz

This translates in increased reliability and longer life expectancy for the device, especially in the

harsh thermal environments to be encountered in a real application. In the case of outdoor fan

for domestic split Aircon systems, for example, the board is mounted directly on the back of the

motor in a close environment without airflow. In this case high ambient temperature up to ~60°C

can be expected:

back of the BLDC fan motor

3.3 Cooling considerations

When the power range of the inverter exceeds ~200W, along with careful PCB design (avoid

placing devices too close to each other or to the edge of the PCB), some type of cooling is

required for the SMD devices. In case of DPAK packages, top side cooling is not effective due to

the relatively high thickness of the mold compound on top of the chip and the poor heat

exchange. Infineon recommends cooling from the bottom of the chip by thermal vias through the

PCB. Several methods for Vias formation are adopted in the Industry:

Infineon recommends, when allowed by the process capability of PCB supplier, the small drill

holes concept for optimum power dissipation. The concept was tested successfully on several

reference designs and allowed to reach up to 1.2kW Output power utilizing RC-D devices in

DPAK package.
