Product details

Overview

AIP3D15A060Q4T from Alpha & Omega Semiconductor is a 600V, 15A dual-in-line intelligent power module (IPM) integrating three-phase inverter IGBTs with trench shielded planar gate technology, built-in bootstrap diodes with integrated current-limiting resistors, and comprehensive protection circuitry including UVLO, controllable OT, CSC, and VCF fault signaling. It operates across –40°C to 150°C and targets compact AC motor drives in home appliances.

For engineers reviewing the AIP3D15A060Q4T datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified electrical specs, isolation-rated package details, thermal monitoring via VOT, short-circuit withstand time of 5 µs, and functional distinctions from the PFC-equipped variant AIP3P15A060Q4T.

Technical Context

The AIP3D15A060Q4T implements a fully integrated 3-phase inverter stage with six IGBTs (U/V/W high- and low-side), each rated at 600V V_CES and 15A continuous output current at T_C = 25°C. Its control logic accepts 3–5V Schmitt-trigger inputs and provides isolated fault signaling via open-drain VCF with configurable pulse width using external RC networks.

Protection functions are hardware-based and independent of MCU intervention: short-circuit detection uses CSC pin with 0.48V reference threshold and 5 µs withstand time at 400V; over-temperature sensing monitors LVIC junction temperature via analog VOT output (1.05V @ 25°C, 2.77V @ 90°C); UVLO triggers at 11.4V on VDD and 9.5V on VDB with hysteresis.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_CES	600V - Maximum blocking voltage per IGBT, enabling use with 400V DC-link in 240VAC systems.
I_C (continuous)	15A at T_C = 25°C - Continuous phase current rating before derating; drops to 10A at T_C = 80°C.
t_SC	5 µs - Short-circuit withstand time at V_PN ≤ 400V and T_J = 150°C, defining safe shutdown window.
V_CE(SAT)	1.40–1.90V at I_C = 7.5A, T_J = 25°C - Low conduction loss enabling high-efficiency inverter operation.
V_ISO	2000V_rms/min - Reinforced isolation between power pins and control pins, meeting basic safety requirements for appliance-grade designs.
V_OT output range	0.8–2.86V - Linear analog temperature output (LVIC) mapping 25°C to 90°C, compatible with 3.3V/5V ADC inputs.
f_PWM	Up to 20 kHz - Maximum switching frequency supported without exceeding thermal limits or timing constraints.

Pinout & Package

Package: IPM-3E, dual-in-line format, 38 × 24 × 3.6 mm, surface-mount with long leads and stopper, RoHS-compliant and halogen-reduced.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
1	NC	No connection - must remain unconnected per datasheet.
2–4	VB(U), VB(V), VB(W)	High-side bias supply inputs - provide floating gate drive voltage for U/V/W upper IGBTs; require local bootstrap capacitors.
5–7	IN(UH), IN(VH), IN(WH)	High-side PWM inputs - Schmitt-triggered, 3–5V logic-compatible signals controlling upper IGBTs.
8, 16	VDD, COM	Main control supply and ground - VDD powers internal logic and gate drivers; COM is common return for all control signals.
10–12	IN(UL), IN(VL), IN(WL)	Low-side PWM inputs - identical interface to high-side but drive lower IGBTs directly referenced to COM.
13	OT	Over-temperature configuration - tied to VDD to set trip point at 120°C; open or pulled down for alternate thresholds.
14	VCF	Controllable fault output / enable input - open-drain output signaling SC/UV/OT faults; also disables low-side IGBTs when held low.
15	CSC	Short-circuit sense input - accepts filtered shunt voltage; trips at 0.48V typical to initiate hard turn-off of low-side IGBTs.
17	VOT	Temperature monitor output - analog voltage proportional to LVIC die temperature; used for thermal feedback or shutdown coordination.
18–20	NW, NV, NU	Negative DC-link terminals - connect to negative rail of DC bus; electrically isolated from control ground.
21–23	W, V, U	Phase outputs - deliver switched AC waveform to motor windings; rated for 600V blocking and 15A RMS current.
24	P	Positive DC-link input - main high-voltage DC bus connection; supports up to 450V continuous, 500V surge.

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Built-in bootstrap diodes with integrated 100Ω limiting resistor	Eliminates need for external bootstrap diodes and series resistors, reducing BOM count and layout complexity in high-side gate drive paths.
Controllable over-temperature protection with VOT analog output	Enables precise thermal management: VOT provides real-time die temperature data (±3.5°C accuracy), while OT pin allows user-configurable trip points (100–140°C).
Hardware-based short-circuit protection with 5 µs withstand time	Guarantees safe turn-off before destructive energy accumulation, using dedicated CSC pin and internal comparator - no software dependency.
Isolated 2000V_rms control-to-power barrier	Meets reinforced insulation requirements for Class II appliances, allowing direct MCU interfacing without optocouplers or level shifters.
VCF pin combining fault signaling and enable functionality	Reduces system pin count: single pin delivers open-drain fault pulses (configurable 20µs–1ms width) and enables/disables low-side IGBTs via logic level.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 3-phase inverter module applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
FST412A	600V/15A IPM with identical IPM-3E footprint but lacks VOT temperature output and uses discrete bootstrap diodes (no integrated resistor).	Requires external bootstrap components and external temperature sensing; suitable where analog thermal feedback is not needed.	Select FST412A only if board space allows added discretes and thermal monitoring is handled externally.
FSB50550	600V/15A IPM with IPM-3F package (same pinout but different mechanical outline), includes PFC diode - not present in AIP3D15A060Q4T.	Designed for PFC+inverter combo topologies; incompatible pin-for-pin due to P2/P3 PFC terminals absent in AIP3D15A060Q4T.	Choose FSB50550 only when PFC integration is required; otherwise, AIP3D15A060Q4T offers lower cost and simpler layout for inverter-only designs.

Compared with FST412A, AIP3D15A060Q4T reduces component count via integrated bootstrap resistors and adds real-time thermal telemetry; versus FSB50550, it eliminates unused PFC diode terminals, improving layout density and lowering parasitic inductance in pure inverter applications.

FAQ

What is the maximum continuous output current rating for the AIP3D15A060Q4T?

The AIP3D15A060Q4T is rated for 15A continuous output phase current at case temperature T_C = 25°C. This rating decreases to 10A at T_C = 80°C due to thermal derating. The device supports 30A peak current for pulses under 1ms, enabling robust motor start-up torque delivery without exceeding safe SOA limits. These values are confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table on page 3 of the AIP3D15A060Q4T datasheet.

Does the AIP3D15A060Q4T include a built-in PFC diode?

No, the AIP3D15A060Q4T does not include a built-in PFC diode. That feature is exclusive to the companion part AIP3P15A060Q4T, which adds P2 and P3 terminals for PFC diode cathode and anode connections. The AIP3D15A060Q4T is optimized for inverter-only applications and omits those pins, resulting in a cleaner layout and reduced parasitic inductance for pure motor drive use cases.

How is over-temperature protection configured on the AIP3D15A060Q4T?

Over-temperature protection on the AIP3D15A060Q4T is configured via the OT pin (Pin 13): connecting OT to VDD sets the trip point at 120°C, leaving it open yields 100°C, and pulling it down with resistors enables 110°C or 130°C thresholds. The actual die temperature is monitored by the LVIC and reported via the VOT pin (Pin 17), providing analog voltage feedback (e.g., 2.77V at 90°C) for closed-loop thermal management in the host MCU.

What isolation voltage rating does the AIP3D15A060Q4T support?

The AIP3D15A060Q4T supports 2000V_rms/minute isolation between all control-side pins (e.g., VDD, INx, VCF) and the power-side pins (e.g., P, U, V, W, NU, NV, NW), verified per UL/IEC standards. This reinforced insulation rating allows direct interfacing with 3.3V or 5V microcontrollers without additional isolation components, simplifying design for Class II consumer appliances.

Can the AIP3D15A060Q4T be used with a 3.3V microcontroller?

Yes, the AIP3D15A060Q4T supports 3–5V logic inputs with Schmitt-trigger receivers, making it fully compatible with 3.3V MCUs. However, when reading the VOT temperature output, a clamp diode is recommended between VOT and the MCU's 3.3V supply to prevent overvoltage, since VOT can reach 2.86V at 90°C and exceed 3.3V under extreme conditions. All input thresholds (V_th(on) = 2.6V typ.) and fault output levels are designed for reliable 3.3V system integration.
