Intelligent power module switches power supply current according to position of the compressor motor
rotor.
The switching order is as shown in Fig. 4-2.
At point E : U
+
is ON, V
–
is ON (circuit in Fig.
4-1)
At point F : U
+
is chopped (OFF), V
–
is ON (circuit in Fig.
4-4)
Upper arm transistor is controlled to ON/OFF by 4.8kHz chopper signal. Rotation speed of the compressor
is proportional to duty ratio (ON time/ ON time + OFF time) of this chopper signal.
Time T in Fig. 4-2 shows the switching period, and relation with rotation speed (N) of the compressor is
shown by formula below;
N = 60/2 X 1/T
Fig. 4-3 shows voltage waveform at each point shown in Figs. 4-1 and 4-4. First half of upper arm is
chopper, second half is ON, and first half of lower arm is chopper, second half is ON.
