Essential Technical Elements to Consider When Designing Inverters for Home Appliance and Small Motor Control

In the past, bathroom fans or push-button fans were mostly products without switching elements and without control functionality. Recently, air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines and other appliances have been using the "inverter method," which offers low pump noise and reduced power consumption, and this application range is gradually expanding to air purifiers, hair dryers, mixers, drones, and more.

In this webinar, we will explore what an "inverter" is and what components make up an inverter, and introduce the following elemental technologies from Infineon.

First, depending on the target power level, which should you choose among discrete IGBTs, diodes versus modules

Second, considerations when selecting gate ICs used for driving power devices

Third, Intelligent Power Module (IPM) with integrated gate IC, IGBT and diode

Fourth, iMOTION™ control solution—no coding required for control; operation is possible with just the motor or compressor parameters
 
This webinar is composed of content that will assist in the control of small motors, home appliances, and low-capacity industrial applications. We look forward to your participation.
