Technical field
The present invention relates to the abnormal protection technology of power semiconductor and the Driving technique of IGBT, relate in particular to a SPM.
Background technology
SPM is that IPM (Intelligent Power Module) is a kind of power drive series products with power electronics and integrated circuit technique combination.SPM integrates device for power switching and high-voltage driving circuit, and in keep overvoltage, overcurrent and failure detector circuit such as overheated.SPM receives the control signal of MCU on the one hand, drives subsequent conditioning circuit work, sends the state detection signal of system back to MCU on the other hand.Compare with the discrete scheme of tradition; SPM wins increasing market with advantages such as its high integration, high reliability; Being particularly suitable for the frequency converter and the various inverter of drive motors, is a kind of desirable power electronic device of frequency control, metallurgical machinery, electric traction, servo-drive and frequency-conversion domestic electric appliances.
Because what SPM drove is inductive load; At conducting and the shutdown moment of the IGBT of upper and lower bridge arm, because the effect of inductance, electric current can not suddenly change; All there is the high pressure fast recovery diode to be used for back discharge so be used for the IGBT of SPM at present, as shown in Figure 1:
High-pressure side drive signal HO connects an end of first resistance R 1; The other end of first resistance R 1 connects the grid of the first insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT1, and the collector electrode of the first insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT1 links to each other with the negative electrode of the first high-voltage diode D1 and receives high-pressure side P;
Low-pressure side drive signal LO connects an end of second resistance R 2; The other end of second resistance R 2 connects the grid of the second insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT2; The collector electrode of the second insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT2 link to each other with the negative electrode of the second high-voltage diode D2 and with the emitter-base bandgap grading of the first insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT1; And also the anode with the first high-voltage diode D1 links to each other, and this point is designated as VOUT;
The emitter-base bandgap grading of the second insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT2 links to each other with the anode of the second high-voltage diode D2 and receives an end of the 3rd resistance R 3, the other end earthing potential GND of the 3rd resistance R 3.
The operation principle of foregoing circuit is following:
High-low level alternately appears in HO and LO, makes the high pressure first insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT1 and the second insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT2 alternate conduction, and the voltage of VOUT is alternate between P and GND.
Because what VOUT drove is inductive load, the electric current that VOUT is ordered can not suddenly change, and the process that VOUT point electric current changes is following: (1) is when first insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT1 maintenance conducting, during the second insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT2 remain off:
Electric current flows out from VOUT through the first insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT1 from P, and it is constant that current value keeps;
(2) end when the first insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT1 becomes from conducting, the second insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT2 is from when becoming conducting:
Because the inductive load electric current can not suddenly change, electric current flows out from VOUT through the 3rd resistance R 3, the second high-voltage diode D2 from GND, and current value reduces gradually, and finally is decreased to 0;
(3) when the first insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT1 remain off, when the second insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT2 keeps conducting:
Electric current flows into VOUT from inductive load, and flows to GND through the second insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT2, the 3rd resistance R 3, and it is constant that current value keeps;
(4) when the first insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT1 from by becoming conducting, the second insulated gate bipolar power tube IGBT2 from conducting become by the time:
Because the inductive load electric current can not suddenly change, electric current flows into VOUT from inductive load, flows to P through high-voltage diode 105, and current value reduces gradually, and finally is decreased to 0.
More than the voltage and the current waveform of four kinds of states as shown in Figure 2.
Can find out that from the analysis of circuit working principle the existence of first and second high-voltage diode is at first and second insulated gate bipolar power tube shutdown moment the back discharge loop to be provided, other the time then need bear high voltage.Make first and second high-voltage diode when back discharge, bear high voltage through big electric current of forward and rapid the shutoff, very high to the performance requirement of first and second high-voltage diode; And when first and second insulated gate bipolar power tube conducting; High voltage can produce bigger fluctuation usually; The withstand voltage formation reverse breakdown that surpasses first and second high-voltage diode sometimes; Therefore the reverse breakdown current that first and second high-voltage diode can bear is less, in the occasion that the high-voltage power voltage fluctuation is big, energy is bigger, often take place first,
The phenomenon that two high-voltage diodes burn prior to first and second insulated gate bipolar power tube; First and second high-voltage diode burns the back and forms short circuit, thus cause drive circuit burn and then burn whole SPM, therefore, the introducing of first and second high-voltage diode has reduced the reliability of SPM on the contrary.
