The application is to be April 3, application number in 2006 the dividing an application for the application for a patent for invention of " supply power adjusting apparatus and semiconductor-fabricating device " that be 200680006206.9 (international application no is PCT/JP2006/307030), denomination of invention the applying date.
Technical field
The present invention relates to supply power adjusting apparatus and the semiconductor-fabricating device that has used this supply power adjusting apparatus to heater fed power.
Background technology
Fig. 3 represents the supply power adjusting apparatus that existing heater is used.The supply power adjusting apparatus 20 that heater is used has the receiving end daughter board 2 that is connected with AC power 1 at its input, have minute adapted terminal board 6 that is connected with heater 7 at its output.Be connected with power circuit breaker 3, power transformer 4 between receiving end daughter board 2 and minute adapted terminal board 6, control with thyristor 5 as the power of power governor.Be provided with temperature measuring thermocouple 8 in heater 7.
By receiving end daughter board 2 input ac powers 1, by power circuit breaker 3, to power transformer 4 supply powers.Carry out the power of transformation at power transformer 4, controlled with thyristor 5 by power and control, supplied with heater 7 from minute adapted terminal board 6.Thus, heater 7 is heated, and the temperature of heater 7 changes.Measure this heter temperature and input temp adjuster 9 by temperature measuring with thermocouple 8.Thermoregulator 9 is obtained the poor of the mensuration temperature measured with thermocouple 8 by temperature measuring and design temperature, and should supply with the quantity of power of heater 7 according to this temperature difference calculating.This result of calculation is scaled the phase control amount, outputs to power as control signal from thermoregulator 9 and controls with thyristor 5.Power is controlled the power supply heater 7 that use thyristor 5 will be corresponding with the sequential of this control signal.
Like this, the supply power adjusting apparatus 20 that heater is used, determined the sequential of output control signals by thermoregulator 9 after detecting heter temperature, and ordered pair power is controlled and carried out phase control with thyristor 5 during according to this, thereby the control heater temperature makes it equal design temperature.
The method of this phase control is shown in Fig. 4.(a) of Fig. 4 illustrates the voltage waveform of AC power, and (b) of Fig. 4 illustrates power ratio control and control the power control thyristor control signal of using thyristor.In phase control method, within each cycle of AC power, be made as power control period A during in the time of will controlling the no-voltage that plays power supply wave shape when producing with the thyristor control signal from power, be made as B during reactive power during when playing control signal in the time of will be from no-voltage and producing.And, required high-power maximum power when obtaining than temperature stabilization to power supply.Therefore, the effective power during temperature stabilization is limited in 60%~80% left and right of maximum power, is reactive power in addition, thereby makes the degradation in efficiency of power supply.
For improving this situation, carried out various trials, as adopting the phase advance capacitor that the zero crossing that does not produce reactive power on principle is controlled, the employing power-factor improvement is used, the ratio of effective power is brought up to more than 85%.

In addition, adopt the control mode of phase advance capacitor to be shown in Fig. 6.The solid line of Fig. 6 (a) represents supply side AC power waveform W1, and dotted line represents to control side power supply wave shape W2.In addition, Fig. 6 (b) illustrates power control thyristor control signal.When controlling by this control signal the supply side AC power waveform W1 that represents with solid line, during reactive power, B is larger, and therefore, the power control example the during P1 of phase angle is as only being limited in 70%.But, when control with power with the thyristor control signal controlling by phase advance capacitor make phase place leading the control side power supply wave shape W2 that dots the time, during reactive power, B ' reduces the leading amount power of phase angle P2, power factor improves on the surface, and power is controlled and is increased to 90%.
But, in the situation that zero crossing is controlled, compare the larger SSR of turn-on voltage owing to power being controlled adopted to control with the such high speed power switched of insulated gate bipolar transistor IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) with element with semiconductor, exist the problem that the response that makes heter temperature worsens.In addition, in the situation that adopt phase advance capacitor, due to the compensation that phase advance capacitor is arranged, need to carry out the power adjustments that is limited reaching maximum power curve before.This is because owing to carrying out phase lead compensation, just also will carry out phase-lag compensation as being raised to suddenly maximum power.Therefore, the convenience of use worsens.
Summary of the invention
As mentioned above, control as power at existing employing SSR with in the supply power adjusting apparatus of element, carry out zero crossing when controlling temperature power being controlled with thyristor, exist the problem that the response of temperature worsens.In addition, in the situation that adopt phase advance capacitor, must carry out power adjustments that the curve that reaches before maximum power is limited, thereby the convenience of using worsens.Further, although both can share, power source change and load variations are not taked any measure, therefore exist the problem for the stability deterioration of power source change and load variations.

As shown in Figure 1, the supply power adjusting apparatus 21 of 7 supply powers from AC power 1 to heater has the receiving end daughter board 2 that is connected with AC power 1 at its input, has minute adapted terminal board 6 that is connected with heater 7 at its output.AC power 1 is for example the single-phase industrial power of frequency 50/60Hz, AC200V.Heater 7 is for example the resistance heater of molybdenum disilicide system.
Connect power circuit breaker 3 on receiving end daughter board 2, and then connect as required power transformer 4.At receiving end daughter board 2 input ac powers 1, by power circuit breaker 3, with power supply power transformer 4.According to the specification of heater 7, sometimes do not use this power transformer 4 yet.In addition, supply power adjusting apparatus 21 is also prepared a plurality of IGBT converters 11 sometimes, in order to heater 7 can be divided into a plurality of zones and carry out respectively power and control.
At the secondary side of power transformer 4, also have input side filter circuit 10, IGBT converter 11, power source change checkout gear 22, load variations checkout gear 23, variations in temperature checkout gear 24, frequency varying device (hereinafter referred to as the changeable frequency circuit) 15, outlet side filter circuit 30.By the power after power transformer 4 transformations, supply with the IGBT converter 11 of being controlled by changeable frequency circuit 15 by input side filter circuit 10, and put on the heater 7 that is connected on minute adapted terminal board 6 by outlet side filter circuit 30.
Below, with the major part figure of supply power adjusting apparatus shown in Figure 7, input side filter circuit 10, outlet side filter circuit 30 and IGBT converter 11 are described.
Input side filter circuit 10 is to have used the low pass filter of LC by filtering mode, has the structure of filtering key element by the arranged in order of CLC.Coil L is divided into L1-1 and L1-2 and inserts incoming line and common line.In addition, the capacitor C1-1 before LC is used for removing high fdrequency component that power supply wave shape is loaded with and for reducing loss, preferably the very little capacitor of electric capacity.The cut-off frequency of low pass filter is considered from the viewpoint of power supply wave shape, noise, and (being the number of times of IGBT conduction and cut-off within 1 second, is 20KHz in the present embodiment to be set as switching frequency.) 1/10~1/40 (500Hz~2KHz).Therefore, can end high frequency component and will supply with reliably heater 7 as the power about purpose industrial frequency (50Hz or 60Hz).
Input side filter circuit 10 suppresses because making IGBT converter 11 switch with high speed, high frequency the electromagnetic noise that action produces.Therefore, can be suppressed at the electromagnetic noise of responding in the incoming line of the IGBT converter 11 that is connected with AC power 1 side, thereby can prevent from producing noise failure in AC power.
Outlet side filter circuit 30 and input side filter circuit 10 similarly, are to have used the low pass filter of LC by filtering mode, have the structure of filtering key element by the arranged in order of LCC.Coil L is divided into L2-1 and L2-2 and inserts outlet line and common line.In addition, the capacitor C2-2 after LC also as described in input side filter circuit 10, is for the capacitor of removing the high fdrequency component that power supply wave shape is loaded with.And then the cut-off frequency of this low pass filter is 500Hz~2KHz too.
Filtering (make its level and smooth) is carried out in 30 pairs of outputs of being switched by IGBT converter 11 and obtaining of outlet side filter circuit, and effectively removes high fdrequency component contained in output.
IGBT converter 11 has power with IGBT converter 11a and regenerates with IGBT converter 11b.Carry out respectively the switching of positive electric current and voltage and the electric current and voltage of bearing due to IGBT converter 11, therefore be preferably Dual-arm.Power is made of high speed rectification circuit FRD 1 and copped wave section with IGBT2 with IGBT converter 11a.Copped wave section has upper arm and the underarm that applies copped wave section pwm signal.Regeneration has IGBT3 and high speed rectification circuit FRD2 with IGBT converter 11b.
Interchange is directly switched with the basic carrier frequency of high speed, high frequency by above-mentioned IGBT2.For example based on the switching instant of PWM mode, from the interchange detection zero cross point of supply source, take this zero cross point as benchmark, calibrate control signal (pwm signal).Then, switch the interchange of supply source and obtain pulse modulated wave with the carrier frequency after calibration, it is supplied with heater 7 by outlet side filter circuit 30.From the control signal of changeable frequency circuit 15 outputs, change the duty ratio of the control signal on the grid (arm) that is applied to IGBT according to variation (temperature, power, load).
Fig. 8 is the figure that the voltage waveform of the switching action of major part of supply power adjusting apparatus shown in Figure 7 and each point ((a)~(e), (f)~(i)) is shown.Describe the effect of IGBT converter 11 in detail with Fig. 8.At first, as shown in (a) with the voltage waveform A supply side daughter board TB1 of industrial frequency AC power.The incoming frequency of the pwm signal that will apply IGBT converter 11 by arm is fixed on 20KHz (50 μ sec).The upper arm of IGBT2 and underarm are applied respectively copped wave section pwm signal as shown in (b), (c).The output voltage waveforms B of IGBT converter 11, only (when applying pwm signal) makes the energising of industrial frequency AC power when the IGBT2 conducting, when IGBT2 ends, the energising of industrial frequency AC power cut off, and therefore becomes (d) such output waveform.This output is carried out smothing filtering by outlet side filter circuit 30, and exports the voltage waveform C of the little industrial frequency of (e) such distortion by minute adapted terminal board (TB2) from outlet side filter circuit 30.The time of by change IGBT2 conducting like this, is controlled the voltage peak of the service voltage that outputs to final load.Therefore, utilize the pwm signal that IGBT2 is applied to using in IGBT converter 11, can not change the frequency of service voltage and only peak value be controlled in 0~70% scope and export to load.
In addition, when the pulsewidth of the copped wave section pwm signal that makes like that the upper arm that is applied to IGBT2 and underarm as (f), (g) during greater than the pulsewidth as shown in above-mentioned (b), (c), the output voltage waveforms B of IGBT converter 11 becomes (h) such waveform, voltage waveform C to the service voltage of final load output can make voltage peak greater than the peak value of above-mentioned (e) as (i).
Owing to by the IGBT2 that is assembled in IGBT converter 11, alternating voltage directly being switched, therefore the input side at IGBT converter 11 does not need the diode full-wave rectifying circuit.
As the IGBT2 of the switching device that consists of this IGBT converter 11, be the grid that voltage drives have been carried out the bipolar power transistor of combination, the consumption of grid driving power is applicable to switch at a high speed less.And owing to being high frequency and jumbo element, conducting voltage reduces significantly than MOSFET (SSR).Control this IGBT2 in order to reduce reactive power with high frequency.

Load variations checkout gear 23 detects the variation of the power output of supplying with heater 7, and the feedback signal corresponding with this variation outputed to changeable frequency circuit 15.This load variations checkout gear 23 has the voltage determination circuit 17 of the output voltage between lines of measuring outlet side filter circuit 30, the power pack 18 of measuring the electric current that flows through heater 7 and control feedback of voltage and current circuit 16.In order to detect load variations, control mensuration electric current and setting difference between currents that feedback of voltage and current circuit 16 is obtained the mensuration voltage measured by voltage determination circuit 17 and the poor of setting voltage and measured by power pack 18.These poor products (power) are exactly load variations.This load variations is outputed to changeable frequency circuit 15 as feedback signal.
In addition, for the variation of sensing lead electric current accurately, also power pack 18 can be arranged on by dividing heater 7 one sides in adapted terminal board 6 outsides.
Changeable frequency circuit 15 carries out FREQUENCY CONTROL according to the result of variations of power source change checkout gear 22 and load variations checkout gear 23 to IGBT converter 11.Specifically, changeable frequency circuit 15 is according to from the variable signal of supply voltage current feed-forward circuit 14 outputs of power source change checkout gear 22, from the variable signal of control feedback of voltage and current circuit 16 outputs of load variations checkout gear 23 and from the signal of attemperator 9 outputs of variations in temperature checkout gear 24, and the grid control signal that will have the frequency corresponding with the quantity of power that should supply with heater 7 is applied on the grid of each IGBT that consists of IGBT converter 11.
By IGBT being carried out FREQUENCY CONTROL and frequency is roughly changed continuously, thereby control the power that is applied on heater 7.The changeable frequency amplitude is more powerful controlled better.
Based on the FREQUENCY CONTROL of changeable frequency circuit 15, from changing on the frequency this point, control identical with the VF (variable frequency) that VVVF controls.In this FREQUENCY CONTROL, also comprise making that basic carrier frequency is constant and PWM that control duty ratio controls.Each that VF controls, PWM controls is to make the IGBT conducting when 0 voltage, is all therefore that zero crossing is controlled.
In the supply power adjusting apparatus 21 of above-mentioned execution mode, thermoregulator 9 and changeable frequency circuit 15 are controlled as follows so that the temperature of heater 7 becomes design temperature.
Thermoregulator 9 is obtained the temperature difference of measuring temperature and design temperature, and according to this temperature difference, calculating should be supplied with the quantity of power of heater 7, and result of calculation is outputed to changeable frequency circuit 15.Changeable frequency circuit 15, the grid control signal that will have the frequency corresponding with the output valve of thermoregulator 9 is applied to IGBT converter 11.IGBT converter 11 will be transformed to from the AC power of input side filter circuit 10 outputs the AC power of the frequency corresponding with the grid control signal of changeable frequency circuit 15, and supply with heater 7 by outlet side filter circuit 30.By to heater 7 supply powers, the temperature of heater 7 changes.
Detect → control by such variations in temperature calculating → output valve output → temperature variation → variations in temperature detection → ... such closed circuit carries out FEEDBACK CONTROL.Owing to determining output variables by thermoregulator 9 and changeable frequency circuit 15 after the detected temperatures state, thereby can carry out well FEEDBACK CONTROL.Therefore, can supply with stable power to heater 7 by the variations in temperature of proofreading and correct heater, and heater 7 can be remained on predetermined temperature.And, because FREQUENCY CONTROL is that zero crossing is controlled, therefore can there is no the high efficiency control of reactive power.
When as described above heter temperature being carried out FEEDBACK CONTROL well, if the voltage of AC power 1 changes, this change in voltage will show as curent change and change in voltage in the output of input side filter circuit 10.This curent change and change in voltage are measured by power pack 12 and voltage determination circuit 13, and are detected by supply voltage current feed-forward circuit 14.15 inputs change corresponding control signal with this power from supply voltage current feed-forward circuit 14 to the changeable frequency circuit.Changeable frequency circuit 15 utilizes this signal, the grid control signal of the frequency that output is corresponding with the difference of power and setting power.This grid control signal is applied to IGBT converter 11 IGBT converter 11 is carried out FREQUENCY CONTROL.Therefore, change in voltage that can corrected AC power supply 1 is supplied with stable power to heater 7.And, because FREQUENCY CONTROL is that zero crossing is controlled, thereby can there is no the high efficiency control of reactive power.By this feedfoward control, improved from input side filter circuit (AC power) 10 to temperature measuring with the response characteristic of thermocouple 8.
In addition, when as described above heter temperature being carried out FEEDBACK CONTROL well, (such as touching outside air etc.) or the character of heater slightly change and load are changed if get muddled on heater 7, show as the variation of the power output of IGBT converter 11.That is the load voltage that, flows through the load current of heater 7 and put on heater 7 changes.This curent change and change in voltage are detected by power pack 18 and voltage determination circuit 17, and measure by controlling feedback of voltage and current circuit 16.Change corresponding signal to 15 inputs of changeable frequency circuit with this power from controlling feedback of voltage and current circuit 16.Changeable frequency circuit 15 utilizes this signal, the grid control signal of the frequency that output is corresponding with the difference of power and setting power.This grid control signal is put on IGBT converter 11 line frequency of going forward side by side to be controlled.Therefore, can change to come to the heater 7 stable power of supply by revising load.And, because FREQUENCY CONTROL is that zero crossing is controlled, can there is no the high efficiency control of reactive power.
This load variations is controlled, and controls with the variations in temperature that detects these 3 steps by disorder → heter temperature variation → thermocouple and compares, and detects these 2 steps for disorder → power changes, and therefore can omit the step that thermocouple detects, thereby accelerate response speed.
