µIPM™ is International Rectifier’s family of ultra compact, surface mount intelligent power modules designed for low power motor drive applications.

The modules offer a combination of IR's low RDS(ON) Trench MOSFET technology and the industry benchmark 3-phase high voltage, rugged driver in an ultra compact package; at only 12 x 12 x 0.9 mm, µIPM modules are the smallest in the industry making them suitable for applications that are space-constrained.

Integrated bootstrap functionality eliminates the need for external high-voltage diodes, while over-current protection, fault reporting and under-voltage lockout functions deliver a high level of protection and fail-safe operation.

These IPMs are an addition to the iMOTION™ family of integrated design motor control platforms from IR. Together with a few external components and our IRMCK series of controllers, they form a complete motor drive system, greatly accelerating the design process for new motor applications.
