The Carrier AC PCB is the electronic control board responsible for managing and coordinating the air conditioner's operation. Carrier uses both inverter and non-inverter technologies, so PCB designs vary accordingly.
🧠 Core Function:The PCB acts as the main controller, receiving input from sensors and the user (via remote), then sending commands to operate:
The compressor
Indoor/outdoor fan motors
Swing motors
Sensors
Display units
In inverter models, the PCB also adjusts compressor speed for energy efficiency. In non-inverter models, the PCB simply switches the compressor ON/OFF via relays.
🧰 Main Types:Type | Function |
---|---|
Indoor PCB | Controls indoor fan, sensors, display, louver motor, and communicates with the outdoor PCB |
Outdoor PCB | Controls the compressor (inverter drive), outdoor fan, and receives commands from the indoor unit |
Component | Function |
---|---|
Microcontroller (MCU) | The brain of the PCB, executing control logic |
Power Supply Unit (SMPS) | Converts 220V AC to DC (5V/12V) |
Relays / Solid State Relays | Switch high-voltage devices like motors |
Sensor Inputs | Temperature sensors (Room, Coil), sometimes humidity |
Display Driver Circuit | Drives LED/LCD panel on indoor unit |
IR Receiver | Receives remote control commands |
Motor Driver IC | Drives fan and louver motors (BLDC or AC) |
Communication Interface (UART/485) | Enables data exchange between indoor and outdoor units |
EEPROM/Flash Memory | Stores AC settings and error logs |
