With the continuous improvement of current grades, the power electronic equipment needs to be formed by connecting a plurality of power device valve banks in parallel, and high requirements are provided for the driving technology of the power electronic devices. The existing multi-channel IGBT driving scheme generally adopts a framework that one central control board controls a plurality of driving boards through optical fibers, and also adopts a scheme that a single driving board of an integrated optical coupling isolation device is adopted. Due to the difference of parameters of the optical isolation devices, the transmission time jitter is large, and the method is not suitable for occasions with high requirements on synchronism. In addition, the existing single-path IGBT driving technology is generally suitable for the working condition of frequently switching on and switching off the IGBT, but is not suitable for the working condition of occasionally switching on or switching off large current, and the IGBT switching-off capacity needs to be improved and optimized.
The present invention provides a method for driving an IGBT of a power electronic device to solve the above problems.

The invention aims to provide a parallel IGBT driving technology of power electronic equipment, which can safely and reliably drive a plurality of paths of IGBT devices in the application occasions of large current conduction or disconnection and ensure the normal operation of the power electronic equipment and the internal devices thereof.
In order to achieve the above purpose, the solution of the invention is:

and 4, step 4: the IGBT adopts a step-by-step turn-off mode to determine the level setting in the step-by-step turn-off process.
Further, in the step 1, the number of parallel IGBTs and the number of drive outputs are determined according to the current value of the on or off of the device and the maximum value of the on or off current of a single IGBT.
Further, the selection of the driving connection mode of the parallel IGBT in step 2 specifically includes adopting a direct gate driving mode or a non-direct gate driving mode.

Detailed Description
The technical solution and the advantages of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
With the continuous improvement of current grades, the power electronic equipment needs a plurality of IGBTs to be directly connected in parallel, and the current conducting or cutting-off capacity of the equipment is improved in a parallel connection mode. Fig. 2 is a valve group topology for a parallel IGBT driving method of a power electronic device according to the present invention. The valve group comprises at least two parallel IGBTs, and the number of the parallel IGBTs is closely related to the current parameter of the device. In order to better control the parallel IGBT devices, a special driving board card needs to be configured as a control interface of the IGBT.
Fig. 1 shows an IGBT driving method for the power electronic device topology, which includes the following steps:
step 1: the number of parallel IGBTs and the number of drive outputs are configured.
And determining the parallel connection number and the driving output number of the IGBTs according to the current value of the power electronic equipment which is switched on or switched off and the maximum value of the current which is switched on or switched off by the single IGBT. Taking a direct current breaker as an example, assuming that the maximum breaking current requirement is not less than 25kA, and the rated current of the current commercial crimping type IGBT is at most 3kA, a single IGBT device cannot meet the electrical requirement. Therefore, a plurality of IGBT devices are required to be connected in parallel and driven, and the target value of the switching-off current 25kA is realized.
Step 2: and selecting a driving connection mode of the parallel IGBT to drive the interior to be directly electrically connected.
The connection mode of IGBT parallel drive is selected, the interior of the drive is directly electrically connected, and no optical device is isolated. The IGBT parallel driving scheme can adopt a direct grid driving mode or a non-direct grid driving mode, optical couplers or optical fiber isolation is not needed in the driving, the non-delay and synchronism of multi-path IGBT driving output are guaranteed, and static and dynamic non-uniform currents caused by asynchronous driving are restrained.
And step 3: and setting the IGBT gate voltage and the driving resistor, regulating the forward gate voltage to a range of 15V to 25V, increasing the driving resistor and prolonging the switching process.
The IGBT gate voltage and the driving resistor are arranged, and through the arrangement of the forward gate voltage enhancement and the driving resistor, the through-current and turn-off capacity of a single IGBT device is improved. In conventional power electronics, the forward gate voltage of the IGBT drive is typically set to 15V, with appropriate drive resistance to ensure a compromise between switching speed and losses. According to the invention, by properly increasing the forward gate voltage and the driving resistance of the IGBT, the desaturation capacity of a single IGBT device can be effectively improved, the turn-off time is delayed, the turn-off di/dt is reduced, and the turn-on and turn-off capacity of the IGBT is improved to 4-5 times of the rated current.
And 4, step 4: the IGBT adopts a step-by-step turn-off mode to determine the level setting in the step-by-step turn-off process.
And determining the IGBT stepped turn-off mode, and providing different stages of at least two levels for the gate pole in the turn-off process. In conventional power electronics, the IGBT-driven gate voltage switches directly from a positive voltage to a negative voltage during turn-off. The graded turn-off mode requires that at least two different levels are introduced into the gate voltage in the turn-off process, so that the turn-off process time is prolonged, and the current di/dt in the turn-off process is reduced. The turn-off mode is suitable for the working conditions of large-current turn-on and turn-off.
By the IGBT driving method, the maximum on and off current of an IGBT device with 3kA of rated current can be at least increased to 15kA, and the on and off capacity of at least 25kA current can be realized only by connecting 2 IGBTs in parallel through a non-delay parallel driving scheme.
By adopting the driving scheme of the invention, the isolation of optical devices is not needed, the non-delay synchronous driving of the parallel IGBT devices is ensured, and the static and dynamic non-uniform currents are inhibited; the single IGBT drives the gate voltage enhancement, the driving resistance setting, the graded turn-off control and the like, so that the turn-off capability of the single IGBT is greatly improved, the di/dt and the overvoltage of the turn-off process of the IGBT are reduced, and the reliable operation of the IGBT is ensured. The invention has simple driving, flexible control and rapid action, can flexibly configure the parallel connection number of the IGBTs according to the target value of the turn-off current, has high capability utilization rate of a single IGBT and is suitable for occasions of large-current turn-off valve sets with different voltage grades.
The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical idea of the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereby, and any modifications made on the basis of the technical scheme according to the technical idea of the present invention fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
