Intelligent power module switches power supply current according to position of the compressor motor
rotor.
The switching order is as shown in Fig. 9-2.

transistor
Upper arm transistor is controlled to ON/OFF by 2.5kHz-5kHz 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. 9-2 shows the switching period, and relation with rotation speed (N) of the compressor is
shown by formula below;
Fig. 9-3 shows voltage waveform at each point shown in Figs. 9-1 and 9-4. First half of upper arm is
chopper, second half is ON, and first half of lower arm is chopper, second half is ON.

When power is supplied U + → V - , because of that U + is chopped, current flows as shown below;
(1) When U + transistor is ON: U + transistor → U coil → V coil → V - transistor → DC current detection
resistor → Point B (Fig. 9-3)
(2) When U + transistor is OFF: (by inductance of motor coil) U coil → V coil → V - transistor →
U - diode → Point A (Fig. 9-4)
At point E: U + is ON, V - is ON (circuit in Fig. 9-1)
At point F: U + is chopped (OFF), V - is ON (circuit in Fig. 9-4)
