FCBS0550 and FCBS0650 Enable Simplified Designs That Reduce Board
Size by 20%, Improving System Performance and Reliability Fairchild
Semiconductor's (NYSE:FCS) two new Motion-SPM(TM) devices for under
200W inverter motors are specifically tailored to reduce board
space and simplify designs while enhancing system performance and
reliability in refrigerator applications. Each FCBS0550 (500V/5A)
and FCBS0650 (500V/6A) Motion-SPM integrates six MOSFETs, three
HVICs and one LVIC into a single, compact thermally efficient
module. Compared to discrete designs requiring multiple components,
the new Motion-SPM reduces total board size by 20% in inverter
motor designs for refrigerators. This integration leads to simpler
and faster designs as well as highly reliable and efficient
systems. Unlike competitive devices, Fairchild's FCBS0650 and
FCBS0550 are UL-certified, which satisfies basic creepage and
clearance spacing requirements. "Fairchild designed its integrated
Motion-SPM for under 200W inverter motors to utilize a MOSFET as a
switching device," said Taehoon Kim, vice president of Fairchild's
Functional Power Group. "The result is a module with a structure
compact enough to achieve cost effectiveness in low-power
applications while offering system efficiency and reliability.
These new Motion-SPM devices demonstrate how Fairchild
intentionally designs products to meet the requirements of specific
applications." -0- *T Additional system benefits of the FCBS0550
and FCBS0650 include: -- Internal MOSFET with short-circuit
withstanding capability improves ruggedness; -- The MOSFET's
body-diode exhibits soft-recovery behavior and low conduction loss
to increase efficiency and reduce noise; -- Built-in HVIC/LVIC
offer high noise immunity and protection functions: -- High-side:
Control circuit under-voltage (UV) protection (without fault signal
output); -- Low-side: UV and short-circuit (SC) protection through
external shunt resistor (with fault signal output); --
Single-grounded power supply due to built-in HVIC simplifies
designs; -- Ceramic substrate's 2500Vrms/min isolation voltage
rating and very low leakage current improve safety; -- Divided
negative DC-link terminals for inverter current sensing
applications increase design flexibility. *T The FCBS0650 and
FCBS0550 are available in a ceramic-based (44 mm x 26.8 mm)
Mini-DIP package. These lead (Pb)-free products meet or exceed the
requirements of the joint IPC/JEDEC standard J-STD-020B and are
compliant with the European Union requirements now in effect.
Fairchild's comprehensive portfolio of power modules covers the
full range of consumer appliance applications from 50W to 3kW.
Offering both integrated and non-integrated solutions to meet the
full range of OEM requirements, each specific solution exemplifies
the company's proven design, manufacturing and packaging expertise.
