Function Manual

1.3-phase PWM Control (CN93, PIN8~13)
VFD-200C-230 provides six-switch circuit by using 3 half-bridge IGBTs. IGBTs of each phase is controlled by (PIN 8~13). The input requirement for PWM is compatible with both TTL and CMOS 3.3V signals. Please refer to the diagram below. WARNING: It is necessary to keep minimum dead-time between the upper and lower switch of each phase.
2.3 (CN93, PIN4~6)3-phase Current Detection & Overcurrent Protection
Low-side shunt resistors 100mΩ are installed on each phase of VFD-200C-230 for c urrent measurement and short-circuit detection. It’s suggested to shorten the length of external detection circuit and detect the signal with a OPAs. Please refer to diagram below. If output current exceeds 200% of rated value, the internal protection circuit will be triggered and shut down the gate driver for protection.
DC BUS Voltage Detection (CN93, PIN1)
VFD-200C-230 is build-in with DC bus voltage sensor(HV+ sensor, PIN 1). The sensor provides a 2.5V output when DC bus voltage is at 380V. It’s suggested to detect the signal by OPAs. When the voltage of the DC bus exceed 420V, the PWM input signal must shut down for protection.
IGBT Temperature Detection (CN93, PIN3)
VFD-200C-230 is built-in a NTC resistor for detecting IGBTs temperature. Users can detect IGBTs temperature for protection. (NTC type: TSM2A103F34D1R, Thinking Electronic) The recommended detection circuit is below. It’s suggested to shutdown the PWMs input, if the temperture is above 95℃.
Fault signal
If the VFD-200C-230 encounters an overcurrent condition and remains in that state for the minimum overcurrent time, the FAULT signal will be activated (active low) to notify the external controller or circuit.
Brake Recommandations(CN100,PIN1,3)
VFD-200C-230 reserved CN100 PIN1,3 that connect to HV+,HV- for brake circuit design .
The maximum voltage on DC Bus(HV+) shall not be higher than 420V.

Application
Application example: BLDC drive application

The figure shows a BLDC drive system set up with VFD-200C-230.
Developers can control the PWM signal of 6-switch by using SPWM or SVPWM, etc. for 3-phase voltage modulation, and build the control method base on the current shunt sensors on 3-phase low-side switch(RSH_U/V/W) and the DC BUS voltage sensor(HV-+ sensor) which provided by VFD-200C-230.
Developers can select the appropriate BLDC position sensors such as encoder or Hall-effect sensors tofit their applications.
It’s suggested to install the brake circuit/device at the HV-+/HV- pin( DC BUS,CN100) to avoid the DC BUS OVP when BLDC is decelerating.
It’s suggested to shut down the PWM input or connect to brake resistor device for safety when DC Bus voltage s higher than 420V.
If VFD-200C-230 was applied with non-appropriate control, such as accelerating too quickly or bad current control, it might trig the VFD-200C-230’s fault-state to shut down the output voltage(low-level on FAULT pin).

Installation

Operate with additional aluminum plate
In orderto meet theDerating Curve”and the “Static Characteristics VFD series must be installed onto an aluminum plate(or the cabinet of the same size) onthe bottom. The size of the suggested aluminum plate s shown as below. And for optimizing thermal performance, the aluminum plate must have an even and smooth surface (or coated with thermal grease), and VFD series must be firmiy mountedat the center of the aluminum plate.
