  • Page 17 AY-XP12ZU1 1. PAM (Pulse Amplitude Modulation) The PAM circuit varies the compressor drive voltage. The IGBT shown in the block diagram charges the energy (electromotive force) generated by the reactor to the electrolytic capacitor for the inverter by turning ON and OFF.
  • Page 18: Pam Circuit

    AY-XP12ZU1 2) AC clock (zero-cross) judgment • The clock circuit determines the time from one rising point of the clock waveform to the next rising point. The detected clock waveform is used to judge the power source frequency (60Hz). • The zero-cross of the AC voltage is judged as the rising of the clock waveform, as shown in the diagram above.
  • Page 19: Ipm Drive Circuit

    AY-XP12ZU1 [3] IPM Drive Circuit The IPM is used for compressor drive. The power supply for the IPM drive, the shunt resistance for over current detection, etc., are provided outside the IPM (control PWB). 1. IPM drive power supply circuit The power supply for the upper-phase IGBT (HU, HV, HW) drive employs a bootstrap system, and provides power to the upper-phase IC.
  • Page 20: 180Deg. Energizing Control

    AY-XP12ZU1 [4] 180deg. Energizing Control This is the control system to moderate the speed by the current phase difference for higher efficiency and lower noise of the compressor. The current phase difference control is the control system paid attention to the interrelation between efficiency and phase gap generated by the applied voltage of motor and current in the coil of motor as shown in the figure below.
