The minimum pressure voltage of Absorption Capacitance should be the load voltage value of IGBT in major loop in buffer circuit, and pressure voltage is chosen It is too small to carry out hidden danger to the safety belt of major loop.Meanwhile the Absorption Capacitance of buffer circuit needs to select noninductive capacitor.
2) resistance parameter designs
Buffer circuit requires before each IGBT shutdown, and capacitor must discharge completely charge.Therefore, the choosing of resistance R Taking must assure that after IGBT is opened, and the charge on capacitor is discharged into the 5% or less of charged lotus, it may be assumed that
3RC=ton(min) (2)
In formula, ton(min)For minimum turn-on time, C is capacitance size.
3) diode parameters design
Diode used in buffer loop selects fast recovery diode MUR860,600V rated.
In the present embodiment, collector current peak IpFor 12A, capacitance voltage rated value UCFor 100V, in capacitor both end voltage Rise time tfFor 3 μ s, 0.09 μ F is calculated to obtain by formula (1), taking capacitor C is 0.1 μ F, and the voltage rating of actual capacitance device takes Value is twice of capacitor rated operational voltage, i.e. 200V.In the present embodiment, minimum turn-on time ton(min)For 20 μ s, capacitor C is 0.1 μ F, can be calculated resistance R by formula (2) is 66.7 Ω, and taking resistance R is 60 Ω.
