Introduction Intelligent power modules (IPMs) are intelligent power devices that incorporate drive circuits, protection circuits or other functionality into a modular configuration.
IPMs are widely used in motor driving (general purpose inverter, servo, air conditioning, elevator, etc.) and power supply (UPS, PV, etc.) applications.
The equipment that uses these IPMs are required to have small size, high efficiency,
