Toshiba Launches 600 V Intelligent Power Device for Brushless DC Motor Drives
Toshiba Unveils New 600V/3A Intelligent Power Device for Brushless DC Motor Drives
Toshiba Electronics has introduced the TPD4165K, a new 600V/3A small intelligent power device (IPD) specifically designed for brushless DC motor drive applications in home appliances such as air conditioners, air purifiers, and pumps. This innovative product builds upon Toshiba's existing IPD portfolio, offering several key advantages:
- Increased Output Current: The TPD4165K boasts a maximum output current of 3A, exceeding the 2A limit of previous Toshiba IPDs. This enhanced capability allows it to support a wider range of equipment with more demanding motor drive requirements.
- Reduced Mounting Area: The TPD4165K utilizes a compact through-hole type HDIP30 package. This design minimizes the mounting area by approximately 21% compared to Toshiba's earlier offerings, contributing to a reduction in the overall size of motor drive circuit boards.
- Improved Reliability for Unstable Power Supply Conditions: In regions with fluctuating power supply voltages, the TPD4165K offers superior reliability. The device is rated for a maximum supply voltage of 600V, exceeding the 500V limit of previous Toshiba IPDs.
Supporting Design Flexibility and Energy Efficiency
Toshiba is committed to providing designers with increased flexibility and supporting the transition towards carbon neutrality. In line with these goals, the company offers a Reference Design for Sensorless Brushless DC Motor Drive Circuit. This reference design is available on Toshiba's website and utilizes both the new TPD4165K IPD and a TMPM374FWUG microcontroller with a vector control engine.
Key Features of the TPD4165K
- High power supply voltage rating (VBB=600V) for increased operational margin in fluctuating voltage environments.
- Compact package (through-hole type HDIP30): 32.8 mm × 13.5 mm (typical), t=3.525 mm (typical).
- Streamlined block diagram for simplified design integration.
Target Applications for the TPD4165K
- Brushless DC motors in various home appliances
- Fan motors (air conditioners, air purifiers, ventilation fans, ceiling fans, etc.)
- Pumps
