Fig. 1 shows a schematic block circuit diagram of a smart power module 100 according to an embodiment of the present application. Fig. 2 shows a partial longitudinal sectional structural diagram of the smart power module 100 according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the smart power module 100 of the embodiment of the present application includes: a bottom substrate 110, a DBC substrate 120, an upper control board 140, and a case 130. Wherein the DBC substrate 120 is soldered on the base substrate 110, and the power topology circuit chip 150 is integrated on the DBC substrate 120. The housing 130 is fixedly mounted on the base substrate 110, and forms a cavity with the base substrate 110 to enclose the DBC substrate 120 and the power topology circuit chip 150. The upper control board 140 is covered on the housing 130, and a driving control circuit 160 is integrated on a side of the upper control board 140 facing the DBC substrate 120. The power topology circuit chip 150 is electrically connected to the driving control circuit 160, and is configured to sequentially perform ac-to-dc rectification, dc-to-ac inversion, and ac-to-dc secondary rectification on the power frequency ac power under the driving of the driving control circuit 160.
Therefore, in the intelligent power module 100 of the embodiment of the present application, the power topology circuit chip 150 for rectifying and inverting the power frequency alternating current is integrated on the DBC substrate 120, the driving control circuit 160 for driving and controlling the power topology circuit chip 150 is integrated on the upper control board 140, and meanwhile, the upper control board 140 is covered on the housing 130, and meanwhile, the upper control board 140 and the DBC substrate 120 are in an up-and-down structure, so that an effect of highly integrated packaging of the power topology circuit chip 150 and the driving control circuit 160 in the intelligent power module 100 is achieved, and finally, a purpose of reducing the volume of the intelligent power module 100 is achieved, so that the area of the intelligent power module 100 of the embodiment of the present application is only about three fifths of that of an original discrete module, and the integration level of the intelligent power module 100 is also effectively improved. Compared with the method of integrating the power topology circuit chip 150 and the driving control circuit 160 on the substrate in the related art, the phenomenon that each circuit is far away from the power chip and the distributed inductance is large is effectively avoided. Meanwhile, high integration level packaging is beneficial to improving distribution parameters of modules, improving performance and reducing cost.
In one possible implementation, the power topology circuit chip 150 may be implemented by a rectifying circuit 151, an inverter circuit 152 and a high frequency rectifying circuit 153 which are electrically connected in sequence. That is, referring to fig. 1 and 2, a rectifying circuit 151, an inverter circuit 152 and a high-frequency rectifying circuit 153 are electrically connected in this order and are arranged in this order from left to right on the DBC substrate 120. The rectifier circuit 151, the inverter circuit 152 and the high-frequency rectifier circuit 153 are sequentially arranged from left to right, so that the use habit of people who go in and out from left to right is met.
The rectifying circuit 151 as an input rectifying portion may be implemented by a plurality of diodes. That is, in the smart power module 100 according to the embodiment of the present application, the rectifier circuit 151 may be a single-phase rectifier circuit or a three-phase rectifier circuit. When a single-phase rectifier circuit is used, the rectifier circuit 151 may be implemented as a single-phase bridge circuit. When a three-phase rectifier circuit is used, the rectifier circuit 151 may be designed as a three-phase bridge circuit structure. Here, it can be understood by those skilled in the art that the single-phase bridge circuit and the three-phase bridge circuit can be implemented by using a circuit structure conventional in the art, and a specific circuit structure can be designed by themselves.
For example, when implemented with a three-phase rectifier circuit, referring to fig. 3, the rectifier circuit 151 includes three sets of diode chips connected in parallel. Each group of diode chip sets comprises two diode chips connected in series, and the connection point of every two diode chips connected in series is used as an external electrode 1, an external electrode 2 and an external electrode 3 for connecting three phases of power frequency alternating current.

The first diode D1 is connected in series with the second diode D2, the third diode D3 is connected in series with the fourth diode D4, and the fifth diode D5 is connected in series with the sixth diode D6. Meanwhile, the first diode D1 and the second diode D2 are connected in series and then connected in parallel to the two ends of the third diode D3 and the fourth diode D4, and the third diode D3 and the fourth diode D4 are connected in series and then connected in parallel to the two ends of the fifth diode D5 and the sixth diode D6.
The connection point of the first diode D1 and the second diode D2 is used as the external electrode 1, the connection point of the third diode D3 and the fourth diode D4 is used as the external electrode 2, the connection point of the fifth diode D5 and the sixth diode D6 is used as the external electrode 3, and the parallel connection points of the three diode groups are respectively the external electrode 4 and the external electrode 5.
By adopting 6 diodes to form the rectifying circuit 151, the circuit structure of the power topology circuit chip 150 in the intelligent power module 100 according to the embodiment of the present application is simplified, and the circuit cost is also effectively reduced.
Further, the inverter circuit 152 in the power topology circuit chip 150 may be implemented by four chip sets of an Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) and a Fast Recovery Diode (FRD) connected in anti-parallel, that is, a collector of the Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) of each chip set is electrically connected to a cathode of the Fast Recovery Diode (FRD), and an emitter of the Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) of each chip set is electrically connected to an anode of the Fast Recovery Diode (FRD).
That is, referring to fig. 4, the inverter circuit 152 includes a first chip group (Q1+ FRD1), a second chip group (Q2+ FRD2), a third chip group (Q3+ FRD3), and a fourth chip group (Q4+ FRD 4). Specifically, the first chip set (Q1+ FRD1) and the second chip set (Q2+ FRD2) are connected in series, and the third chip set (Q3+ FRD3) and the fourth chip set (Q4+ FRD4) are connected in series. One bridge arm formed by the first chip set (Q1+ FRD1) and the second chip set (Q2+ FRD2) connected in series is connected with two ends of the other bridge arm formed by the third chip set (Q3+ FRD3) and the fourth chip set (Q4+ FRD4) connected in series in parallel to form an H inverter bridge structure.
By adopting the four chip sets to form the inverter circuit 152 of the H inverter bridge structure, not only can the inversion from direct current to alternating current be effectively realized, but also the circuit structure of the power topology circuit 150 is further simplified.
It should be noted that collectors of the first and third chip groups Q1 and Q3 connected in parallel are the external electrode 6 of the intelligent power module 100 in this embodiment, emitters of the second and fourth chip groups Q2 and Q4 connected in parallel are the external electrode 7 of the intelligent power module 100 in this embodiment, a connection point between the emitter of the first chip group Q1 and the collector of the second chip group Q2, and a connection point between the emitter of the third chip group Q3 and the collector of the fourth chip group Q4 are the external electrode 8 and the external electrode 9, respectively.
In addition, as will be understood by those skilled in the art, the gate and the emitter of Q1 in the first chip group, the gate and the emitter of Q2 in the third chip group are 16-19 of the auxiliary electrodes; 20-21 taking the grid and the emitter of the Q2 as auxiliary electrodes in the second chip set; the gate and emitter of Q4 in the fourth chip set are used as auxiliary electrodes 24 and 25 for electrically connecting the driving control circuit 160, so that each igbt is turned on and off under the driving control of the driving control circuit 160.
Furthermore, in the smart power module 100 according to the embodiment of the present application, the high-frequency rectification circuit 153 is used as a rectification output portion, and can be implemented by designing two sets of rectification chips. Wherein, each group of rectifier chips comprises a diode chip or more than two fast recovery diode chips connected in parallel. Such as: in one possible implementation, each set of rectifying chips may be implemented using three fast recovery diode chips connected in parallel.
That is, referring to fig. 5, the high-frequency rectification circuit 153 includes a first group of rectification chips and a second group of rectification chips. The first set of rectifier chips includes fast recovery diodes FRD5, FRD6, and FRD7 connected in parallel. The second group of rectifying chips comprises fast recovery diodes FRD8, FRD9 and FRD10 which are connected in parallel.
Referring to fig. 5, the two parallel ends of the fast recovery diodes FRD5, FRD6, and FRD7 in the first group of rectifier chips are respectively used as the external electrode 10 and the external electrode 12, and the two parallel ends of the fast recovery diodes FRD8, FRD9, and FRD10 in the second group of rectifier chips are respectively used as the external electrode 11 and the external electrode 13. When the electrodes 12, 13 are short circuited, a typical full wave rectifier circuit is used.
In addition, it should be noted that, in the intelligent power module 100 according to the embodiment of the present application, referring to fig. 6, the power topology circuit 150 further includes a temperature sensing device RT. The temperature sensing device RT is disposed beside the inverter circuit 152 that radiates heat. Specifically, the temperature sensing device RT may be disposed near the H inverter bridge of the inverter circuit 152 and soldered on the DBC substrate 120, and two ends of the temperature sensing device RT are respectively used as the auxiliary electrodes 14 and 15. That is, the position of the temperature sensing device RT may be selected near the electronic device generating the largest amount of heat in the smart power module 100. Such as: in the smart power module 100 of the embodiment of the present application, the temperature sensing device RT may be disposed at a position between the IGBTs in the H inverter.
Further, in the smart power module 100 according to the embodiment of the present application, the driving control circuit 160 may be implemented by the gate isolation power supply 161, the gate driving chip 162, and the detection protection circuit 163. The gate isolation power source 161, the gate driving chip 162 and the detection protection circuit 163 are mounted on the bottom surface of the upper control board 140, so that the gate isolation power source 161, the gate driving chip 162 and the detection protection circuit 163 are encapsulated in a cavity formed by the upper control board 140, the housing 130 and the bottom substrate 110. It should be noted that the gate isolation power supply 161, the gate driving chip 162 and the detection protection circuit 163 can be implemented by conventional circuits in the art, or by self-design, and are not limited herein.
Therefore, in the intelligent power module 100 according to the embodiment of the present application, the power topology circuit chip 150 is implemented by sequentially electrically connecting the rectifier circuit 151, the inverter circuit 152 and the high-frequency rectifier circuit 153, the rectifier circuit 151 serves as an input module of the power topology circuit chip 150, and the high-frequency rectifier circuit 153 serves as an output module of the power topology circuit chip 150, so that the circuit structure of the power topology circuit chip 150 according to the embodiment of the present application can be sequentially arranged on the DBC substrate 120 from left to right. In addition, the driving control circuit 160 composed of the gate isolation power source 161, the driving chip, the protection circuit and the interface circuit is combined to be integrated and packaged in an upper structure part and a lower structure part, so that the intelligent power module 100 in the embodiment of the application has higher power density, better reliability, small volume, light weight, convenient installation and use, proper distributed electrical parameters, and the purposes of simplifying the process, reducing the working hours, saving materials and reducing the cost are achieved.
In addition, it should be noted that, in the smart power module 100 according to the embodiment of the present application, the DBC substrate 120 may be implemented by using two substrates. That is, in one possible implementation, the DBC substrate 120 includes a first substrate and a second substrate, which are arranged on the base substrate 110 in a left-right structure. Among them, it should be noted that the thermal conductivity of the second substrate is larger than that of the first substrate, so that when the power topology circuit chip 150 is integrated onto the insulating substrate 120, a device having a large heat generation amount can be disposed on the second substrate, and a device having a relatively small heat generation amount can be disposed on the first substrate. Compared with the mode of only adopting one material substrate in the related technology, the heat dissipation performance of the intelligent power module 100 is effectively improved, the cost is also effectively reduced, and the improvement of the module power density and the reduction of the cost are both realized.
In one possible implementation, the DBC substrate 120 may be implemented using a DBC substrate. At the same time, in DBC groupWhen the sheet 120 is implemented by using two substrates spliced left and right, the first substrate may be aluminum oxide (AL) for cost performance of the module2O3) DBC substrate. The second substrate may be implemented using an aluminum nitride (ALN) DBC substrate. The aluminum oxide ceramic is low in price, the aluminum nitride ceramic has higher thermal conductivity than the aluminum oxide ceramic, the thermal expansion coefficient matched with a chip is high in strength, high temperature resistance and chemical corrosion resistance, high in resistivity and low in dielectric loss, and the aluminum nitride ceramic can be used as an insulating and radiating substrate material of a high-power semiconductor device module.
Meanwhile, in the smart power module 100 according to the embodiment of the present application, a communication socket 170 is further disposed on the top surface of the upper control board 140 for data communication with an upper computer. In addition, the housing 130 is correspondingly fitted with a main terminal 131 and an auxiliary terminal 132. Here, it can be understood by those skilled in the art that the main connection terminal 131 and the auxiliary connection terminal 132, which are fitted on the housing 130, correspond to respective external electrodes and auxiliary electrodes in the power topology circuit 150, thereby facilitating a wiring operation from outside the housing.
In order to more clearly illustrate the structure of the smart power module 100 according to the embodiment of the present application, a process for manufacturing the same is described in detail below.
Specifically, the circuit layout is first performed according to the schematic circuit diagram of the power topology circuit chip 150 and the driving control circuit 160 shown in fig. 1. The power topology circuit chip 150 (i.e., the rectifying circuit 151, the inverter 152 and the high frequency rectifying circuit 153 as inputs) is integrated on the two DBC substrates 121 and 122 (i.e., the DBC substrate 120), and then the upper control board 140, which is designed according to the shape of the cavity formed by the housing 130 and the base substrate 110, is integrated with the self-generated power supply and the protection circuit and the peripheral circuits, so that the driving control module is installed in the cavity and the upper control board 140 serves as a cover board of the smart power module 100 according to the embodiment of the present application.
More specifically, when the power topology circuit chip 150 is integrated on the DBC substrate 120, the DIODE chips in the rectifying circuit 151, the FRD and IGBT chips in the inverter circuit 152, and the FRD chip in the high frequency rectifying circuit 153 may be designed in the order of left, middle, and right. The FRD chip 152a and the IGBT chip 152b of the two arms of the middle inverter circuit 152 are respectively designed on two substrates (i.e., a first substrate and a second substrate) with circuit patterns respectively engraved on the left and right, the temperature-sensitive device RT is placed at a position close to the IGBT chip, and each chip and the temperature-sensitive device RT are welded on the pattern corresponding to the DBC substrate 120 by a vacuum welding process.
Then, the DBC substrate 120 (i.e., the first and second substrates) is bonded on the base substrate 110 using a vacuum bonding process. The base substrate 110 may be implemented by a copper substrate.
Next, the housing 130 in which the main terminals 131 and the auxiliary terminals 132 are embedded is bonded to the base substrate 110.
Among them, the electrical connection between the power chips (i.e., DIODE, FRD, and IGBT) in the power topology circuit chip 150, the DBC substrate 120, and the main connection terminal 131 and the auxiliary connection terminal 132 on the case 130 may be achieved through a bonding process of an aluminum or copper bonding wire 180.
Next, after the upper control board 140 equipped with the gate isolation power supply 161, the gate driving circuit 162 and the detection protection circuit 163 is covered on the housing 130, electrical connection is completed by auxiliary electrode soldering inserted into the upper control board 140. The eight-pin communication socket 170 located on the upper control board 140 is used for receiving communication signals of the upper computer.
Finally, a silicone gel material is injected into the housing formed by the outer shell 130, the bottom substrate 110 and the upper control board 140 for sealing, thereby completing the packaging preparation of the smart power module 100 according to the embodiment of the present application.
With the intelligent power module 100 according to the embodiment of the present application, the structural layout of the left, middle and right partitions according to the circuit topology is implemented. Specifically, referring to fig. 7, 1 to 5 of the left main connection terminals 131 correspond to external electrode portions (i.e., rectifier diode chip regions) of the rectifier circuit 151 in the power topology circuit 150, 6 to 9 of the middle main connection terminals 131 correspond to external electrodes of the inverter circuit 152 (i.e., IGBT chip regions in the inverter circuit 152), and 10 to 13 of the right main connection terminals 131 correspond to external electrode portions of the high frequency rectifier circuit 153 (i.e., FRD chip regions of the high frequency rectifier circuit 153). The auxiliary terminals 14-25 on the two sides of the middle correspond to the auxiliary electrode portions in the inverter circuit 152. Namely, the auxiliary terminals 16-25 at the middle two sides are used for the grid and emitter of the IGBT chip, 14-15 are used for the temperature sensing device RT, and are connected with the upper control board 140 which is also used as an upper cover, and the communication socket 170 at the middle is used for connecting an upper computer.
Through the design of the structural layout, the wiring habit of people for left-in and right-out, up plus (+) and down minus (-) is met, and the design of the whole machine is convenient. Meanwhile, three ac input terminals on the left side (i.e., 1 to 3 of the main connection terminal 131 on the left side) may be bolts one smaller than other connection terminals, and the FRD dc output terminals 12 and 13 on the right side may be two parallel output structures, so that the intelligent power module 100 of the embodiment of the present application has the smallest structural size.
Meanwhile, the DBC substrate 120 is adopted to integrate the power topology circuit chip 150, the upper control board 140 is integrated with the drive control circuit 160, and the drive chip and the power chip adopt a vertical structure mode, so that the structure space of the intelligent power module 100 of the embodiment of the application is more compact, the upper control board 140 integrated with the drive control circuit 160 is embedded at the top of the shell 130 and is also used as an upper cover board of the module, and therefore better distribution parameters can be obtained on the premise of reducing cross-linking interference and heat conduction influence as much as possible.
It should be noted that, although the smart power module 100 as described above is described by taking fig. 1 to fig. 7 as an example, those skilled in the art will understand that the present application should not be limited thereto. In fact, the user can flexibly set the implementation manner of each circuit according to personal preference and/or practical application scenarios, as long as the intelligent power module 100 can realize the left-middle-right structural layout and the top-bottom structure on the structural layout.
