Description

High-voltage insulating isolation SiC MOSFET gate driving circuit with protection function
Technical Field
The invention relates to a high-voltage insulating isolation SiC MOSFET gate driving circuit with a protection function, and belongs to the technical field of integrated circuits.
Background
With the advent and popularity of Si-based superjunction MOSFETs and Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBTs), silicon devices have begun to be unsuitable for some high voltage, high temperature, high efficiency and high power density applications due to their own physical characteristics limitations. Compared with Si materials, the higher thermal conductivity of the SiC materials determines the characteristic of high current density, and the higher forbidden bandwidth determines the high breakdown field strength and the high working temperature of the SiC devices. Especially in development and application of SiC MOSFET, compared with Si MOSFET with the same power level, the on-resistance and switching loss of the SiC MOSFET are greatly reduced, and the SiC MOSFET is suitable for higher working frequency, and in addition, the high-temperature stability is greatly improved due to the high-temperature working characteristic.
Because the characteristics of the SiC MOSFET device are greatly different from those of the traditional Si MOSFET, the performance of the SiC MOSFET driving circuit plays a vital role on the whole system. The new generation of power electronic complete machine system based on SiC devices brings higher demands to the driving speed and the intellectualization of a high-voltage gate driving chip, thereby further improving the reliability of the complete machine and reducing the design complexity of the complete machine system. Compared with Si MOSFETs, siC MOSFETs have smaller parasitic capacitance, and the difference between the parasitic capacitance and the parasitic capacitance is more than ten times, so that the SiC MOSFETs are more sensitive to parasitic parameters of a driving circuit. On the other hand, the driving voltage range of SiC MOSFETs is typically-5V to +25v, whereas the driving voltage range of conventional Si MOSFETs is-30V to +30v. Therefore, siC MOSFETs have smaller safety thresholds than conventional Si MOSFETs, and a voltage spike in the drive circuit is likely to break down the oxide layer between the gate sources, which is also a careful design of the output control level of the drive circuit.
The high-voltage gate driving chip is used for meeting the requirement of conversion driving between a low-power level signal provided by an output interface of the CPU controller and a high-voltage high-current signal required by gate driving of a high-power output device. The core function of the grid driving IC in the whole system is to convert a low-power level signal (1 mA/3-5V) output by a CPU controller into a high-voltage and high-current signal (0.5-5A/5-20V) required by grid driving of a high-power device, and amplify output current and output voltage swing; because the output driving object is a high-voltage high-current device, a great voltage difference exists between the substrate potential of the output circuit and the substrate potential of the input circuit, and the high-voltage circuit and the low-voltage circuit are required to be electrically isolated; in addition, since signal connection must be performed between the high voltage and low voltage area circuits, an isolation area signal transmission module responsible for signal transmission function between two sides of the isolation area must be provided in the chip. Since the SiC MOSFET is applied in a high power system, the SiC MOSFET must be protected from escaping from its safe operating area during operation, thereby shortening the life and even damaging the SiC MOSFET. Therefore, the SiC MOSFET gate driving circuit generally integrates monitoring and protection circuits, including overvoltage, undervoltage, over-temperature, and over-current protection functions.

The transmitting end undervoltage protection circuit 13 and the receiving end undervoltage protection circuit 16 are realized by adopting the same high-precision undervoltage protection circuit; the transmitting end over-temperature protection circuit 14 and the receiving end over-temperature protection circuit 17 are realized by adopting the same high-precision over-temperature protection circuit with wide voltage range; the transmitting-end overcurrent protection circuit 15 and the receiving-end overcurrent protection circuit 18 are realized by adopting the same high-precision overcurrent protection circuit.
In the circuit shown in fig. 1, the transmitting end undervoltage protection circuit 13, the transmitting end overtemperature protection circuit 14 and the transmitting end overcurrent protection circuit 15 respectively provide an undervoltage protection signal UVLO, an overtemperature protection signal OTP and an overcurrent protection signal OCP, and the undervoltage protection signal UVLO, the overtemperature protection signal OTP and the overcurrent protection signal OCP are sent to the data channel digital control circuit 2 to judge whether the chip state is correct or not.

The basic input receiving circuit 1 of the high-voltage SiC MOSFET gate driving circuit is shown in fig. 2, and adopts two channels of identical input receiving circuits, wherein each channel of receiving circuit comprises an input ESD protection circuit, a level discrimination circuit and a medium-voltage level shifting circuit. The input receiving circuit 1 not only needs to complete signal transmission, but also needs to complete ESD protection of the internal circuit of the chip, so as to prevent the circuit from being damaged due to impact of ESD on the internal circuit. The circuits commonly used for ESD protection for integrated circuit design are: a lateral SCR clamp, an anti-parallel diode clamp, a zener clamp, a CDM clamp, etc. The level discrimination circuit is used to identify whether the external input level is logic "0" or "1", and must have sufficient noise margin against interference due to the presence of external signals, and the specific circuit implementation typically includes 2 forms, one is Schmitt trigger and the other is a hysteresis comparator. The implementation circuits of the Schmitt trigger and the hysteresis comparator have great difference according to different speeds of the driving chip driving object and the input logic signal. Since the supply voltage VCC of the gate driver chip is typically a medium voltage level of 10-20V, and the input logic level is an external digital logic of less than 5V, the input ESD and level discrimination circuits must use a relatively lower supply voltage VCL, typically 3-10V, to more accurately perform the determination of the input logic level. Therefore, before the logic signal output by the level discrimination circuit enters the control logic inside the chip, the logic signal with the high level VCL must be converted into the logic signal with the high level VCC by a medium voltage level shift circuit, so as to obtain Din and Adjin signals.
The digital control circuit of the invention is used for integrating the chip state monitoring signal, judging whether the circuit is normal or not, and switching off the data output when the chip is abnormal. One digital control circuit implementation provided in an embodiment is shown in fig. 3, which is made up of combinational logic gates. The control process realized by the circuit is as follows: when the circuit generates overcurrent (OCP is effective), overtemperature (OTP is effective) or power supply voltage undervoltage (UVLO is effective), an error logic circuit of the first row in the diagram outputs a low-level signal to indicate that the circuit is abnormal, and two paths of outputs DxP and DxN are blocked; when the overcurrent and over-temperature alarm is released and the power supply returns to normal working voltage, the error logic circuit immediately outputs a high-level signal to indicate that the circuit works normally. In fig. 3, signals of the data channel digital control circuit 2 are taken as an example for identification. The output of which is also controlled by a control signal Adjin from the outside and an Error signal Error from the data channel high common mode transient suppression differential signal receiving circuit 4. The protection channel digital control circuit 10 can also be implemented by the same digital control circuit, except that the connection signals Adjin, error and Din are not used.
Fig. 4 is a diagram of a modulation and transmission circuit according to the present invention, where a modulation scheme adopted by the circuit is pulse count modulation, and a method of describing a rising edge of an input signal with double pulses and a method of describing a falling edge of the input signal with single pulses are used to separate the rising edge and the falling edge of the input signal and generate corresponding pulse driving signals. The modulation transmitting circuit of the present invention adopts 2 sets of circuits shown in fig. 4, and signals in the figure are identified by taking the data channel modulation transmitting circuit 5 as an example: dxP is input data, R1 and R2 are high-frequency refresh signals, and the output is modulated pulse signal TxN. The refresh signals R1 and R2 respectively correspond to a refresh command signal of a falling edge single pulse and a rising edge double pulse, a circuit normally works when the signals are high, and a refresh operation is executed to refresh the circuit when the signals are low. Besides logic gate, the DELAY module for delaying is composed of inverter, capacitor and schmitt trigger. The specific length of the delay is controllable, and the delay time control can be realized by changing the size of the capacitor or the number of the inverters. The schmitt trigger is connected after the capacitor to avoid the influence of uncertainty caused by unstable voltage at two ends of the capacitor.
Because of the large voltage difference between the substrate potentials of the transmitting end circuit and the receiving end circuit, the high-voltage circuit and the low-voltage circuit must be electrically isolated. Because of the large difference in application scenarios of the power semiconductor device, the voltage difference VGND between the maximum values of the high and low voltage regions is equal to (VGND 1-VGND 2) and can span from 40V to 6500V. The VGND directly determines the electrical isolation level inside the chip, and realizes different levels of electrical isolation constituent circuits inside the chip, so that the technology and the cost quality level of the adopted circuit devices have great difference. The invention adopts the insulating isolation technology of capacitance isolation to isolate the high-low voltage signal processing circuit in physical space, thereby realizing ultra-high voltage electric isolation exceeding 3000V.
In the implementation of the invention shown in fig. 1, the transmitting-side circuit and the receiving-side circuit are connected to the ground voltages Vgnd1 and Vgnd2, respectively, wherein an isolation circuit is provided to isolate the two ground voltages Vgnd1 and Vgnd2. However, since there is typically some degree of common mode transient noise between the two ground voltages Vgnd1 and Vgnd2, errors in the signal will occur during transmission. It is generally defined that the common mode transient noise VGND is equal to the voltage difference of (VGND 1-VGND 2) and will periodically ramp up from 0V to 1200V and then ramp down from 1200V to 0V for a typical application scenario of a 1200V SiC MOSFET. Then, under the interference of the common mode transient noise VGND, the voltage of the receiving terminal Vcm (vcm= (RxP +rxn)/2) will generate a spike error, which inevitably causes the data error of the receiving terminal circuit, and the influence of the common mode transient noise will further worsen as the switching frequency increases. Therefore, in order to realize high-reliability driving of the SiC MOSFET device and effectively inhibit common-mode transient noise, the invention adopts a high-common-mode transient inhibition differential signal receiving circuit.

In addition to the common mode adaptive adjustment, the present invention further employs a high reliability first output shaping circuit 604, and employs RC low pass filtering and schmitt trigger combination filtering to filter out the influence of high frequency noise, so as to obtain the data output Dout that is not influenced by transient common mode noise.

Fig. 12 and 13 show the implementation manner and the operation waveforms of the common mode detection circuit according to the present invention. The common mode detection circuit is used for detecting power supply and substrate noise, and changing the magnitude of a common mode detection signal vcm_det when the noise is larger than a certain threshold value so as to control the output of the common mode adaptive adjustment circuit shown in fig. 11. The common mode detection circuit is composed of a PMOS tube M111, a PMOS tube M112 and an NMOS tube M113; the grid electrode and the drain electrode of the PMOS tube M111 are connected and connected to the drain electrode of the PMOS tube M112 and the grid electrode of the NMOS tube M113; the grid electrode of the PMOS tube M112 is connected with the drain electrode of the NMOS tube M113 and is used as an output node of the common mode detection signal Vcm_det; the sources of the PMOS tube M111 and the PMOS tube M112 are connected with a power supply voltage, and the source of the NMOS tube M113 is connected with a ground voltage.
Taking the operating voltage of the first common mode detection circuit 100 as an example. The typical high-voltage half-bridge gate driving circuit is divided into a high-side driving circuit channel and a low-side driving circuit channel, and the high-side driving circuit realizes signal transmission control in a bootstrap boosting mode. Assuming that the circuit is operated in a high-side drive circuit of the half-bridge gate drive chip, vgnd2 is connected with half-bridge output SW, SW swinging between 0 and Vgnd; VDD is connected to the power supply voltage VHB of the high-side driving circuit, and VHB is bootstrapped and floated by the bootstrap capacitor on the basis of the SW potential, so that the bootstrap voltage vdd=vhb=sw+vcc in normal operation. Because the capacitor bootstrapping charges also needs a certain charging time, in the capacitor charging process, the bootstrap voltage can not completely synchronize the fluctuation of SW, which leads to a certain delay of VDD relative to SW, the voltage difference between the power supply and the ground in the delay interval is not strictly equal to VCC, which is equivalent to the common mode noise of the power supply, and the noise amplitude is large enough to influence the circuit function, so that the false triggering of the comparator is generated.
As shown in the right waveform of fig. 13, when the half-bridge output SW is stable, the VDD and Vgnd2 voltages are in a stable state, M111 is turned on, M113 is turned on, vcm_det will be pulled down to Vgnd2 by M113, and at a low level; when the half-bridge output SW is switched from 0 to VGND, the VGND2 voltage is synchronously switched to VGND, but VDD has a certain delay, a certain delay interval is generated, VDD does not reach vgnd+vcc in the delay interval, the gate voltage of M113 is insufficient to turn on M113, M113 will be turned off, vcm_det will be influenced by VGND2 to generate a spike high pulse under the effect of parasitic capacitance until VDD reaches vgnd+vcc, at this time, M113 is turned back on, vcm_det will be pulled down to VGND2 by M113.
As shown in FIG. 1, the overall isolation of the capacitor isolation SiC MOSFET driving chip of the invention is realized by two groups of isolation capacitors (Ctp and Crp form a group of P-end series isolation capacitors and Ctn and Crn form a group of N-end series isolation capacitors) which are arranged in series, and the middle is connected with the upper polar plates of the two series isolation capacitors through a Bonding wire (Bonding wire), so that the overall voltage resistance of the capacitor isolator chip is the sum of the voltage resistance of the two capacitors in the series capacitors. In general, the withstand voltage of SiO 2 is about 500V/um, and in a general CMOS process with 0.18um, if the first layer M1 is used as the lower electrode plate of the isolation capacitor and the sixth layer M6 is used as the upper electrode plate of the isolation capacitor, the total thickness of SiO 2 between the metal layers is about 6-7 um, that is, the withstand voltage of a single isolation capacitor is about 3000V-3500V, and the withstand voltages of two isolation capacitors are about 6000V-7000V. The withstand voltage can meet the common and conventional application, and cannot meet the withstand voltage requirement of ultrahigh voltage isolation.
As shown in fig. 14, the present invention provides an ultra-high withstand voltage separating capacitor comprising: the deep N well isolation region DNWELL 50, a lower electrode plate (a first layer M1) 51, an upper electrode plate 54, and a SiO 2 layer 52 and a passivation layer 53 which are arranged between the lower electrode plate 51 and the upper electrode plate 54 from bottom to top, wherein the passivation layer 53 is a superposition of SiO 2 and Si 3N4. The thickness of the SiO 2 layer is mainly VIA12, M2 (second layer), VIA23, M3 (third layer), VIA34, M4 (fourth layer), VIA45, M5 (fifth layer), VIA56, M6 (sixth layer), the sum thickness is 8-9 um, and the thickness of the passivation layer 53 is 2-3 um. Si 3N4 in the passivation layer 53 is disposed superimposed over SiO 2 because Si 3N4 has better compactness and pressure resistance than SiO 2. The upper plate 54 is made of metal Cu, and the upper plate 54 is formed by processing the rear end of the wafer, and a layer of metal Cu is formed on the passivation layer 53, and the metal Cu also serves as a PAD. A deep N-well isolation region DNWELL 50 is under the lower plate 51, and a substrate of a wafer is under the deep N-well isolation region 50; the deep N-well isolation region 50 should have an area larger than the planar area of the lower plate 51 and entirely cover the lower surface of the lower plate 51.
According to the ultrahigh voltage-resistant isolation capacitor scheme provided by the invention, the thickness of the passivation layer is controlled to be about 2.5um through process adjustment, the thickness of a single isolation capacitor is about 12um, and the voltage-resistant value can reach 6000V, so that the total thickness of two isolation capacitors connected in series is about 24um, the total voltage-resistant value can reach 12000V, the requirement of enhancing isolation can be met, the capacitance value of the isolation capacitor is reduced after thickening, the area of an isolation capacitor polar plate can be properly increased, the capacitance value of the isolation capacitor is basically kept unchanged, and the transmission quality of the whole isolation signal is not affected.
The low voltage supply circuit is a basic functional module which any analog IC must be equipped with, and a block diagram of an implementation structure which can be used by the transmitting side low voltage generation circuit 3 and the receiving side low voltage generation circuit 8 of the present invention is shown in fig. 15. The circuit internally comprises: a start-up circuit 801, a bandgap reference voltage generation circuit 802, a reference voltage generation circuit 803, a bias signal generation circuit 804, and an input low voltage generation circuit 805. Taking the transmitting end low voltage generating circuit 3 as an example, after the VCC voltage of the chip is powered on, the starting circuit 801 is the circuit that is started first in the whole chip, and the starting circuit generally provides a certain initial bias signal to generate a fixed reference voltage and a fixed reference current for the bandgap reference voltage generating circuit 802; the reference voltage is then used for generating various reference voltages V R1、VR2~VRn required by the internal work of the chip through a reference voltage generating circuit and is output through a buffer circuit; the reference current typically goes into bias signal generation circuit 804, which generates various bias signals for biasing other analog circuits in the chip, as well as bias to reference voltage generation circuit and input low voltage generation circuit 805. The input low voltage generation circuit 805 typically generates a 3-10V floatable low voltage power supply voltage VCL.
Fig. 16 is a block diagram of an over-temperature protection circuit of the present invention with high accuracy and wide voltage range. The circuit of the present invention includes a clamp 1401, a temperature sensing circuit 1402, a wide voltage range comparator circuit 1403 and a second output shaping circuit 1404. The temperature detection circuit 1402 obtains a first temperature detection output signal Vin1 and a second temperature detection output signal Vin2 according to the bias voltage Vb provided by the clamp circuit 1401; the wide voltage range comparator circuit 1403 compares the first temperature detection output signal Vin1 with the second temperature detection output signal Vin2 to obtain a comparison output signal Vo1; the second output shaping circuit 1404 processes the comparison output signal Vo1 to obtain a temperature protection signal OTLock and an OTP, and OTLock is a digital logic signal, OTLock is connected to the clamp circuit 1401 for controlling the magnitude of the bias voltage Vb, and the OTP is output to the digital control circuit as a control signal.
When the chip temperature is normal, the temperature protection signal OTLock is at high level, and the OTLock high level controls the clamp circuit 1401 to generate a higher bias voltage Vb; the temperature detection circuit 1402 generates a first temperature detection output signal Vin1 and a second temperature detection output signal Vin2 according to the bias voltage Vb and the temperature signal. The comparison output signal Vo1 obtained from the first temperature detection output signal Vin1 and the second temperature detection output signal Vin2 by the wide voltage range comparator circuit 1403 under normal conditions should be a high level signal; the second output shaping circuit 1404 processes the comparison output signal Vo1 to obtain the temperature protection signal OTLock as a high level logic signal.
When the chip temperature is abnormal, the first temperature detection output signal Vin1 and the second temperature detection output signal Vin2 generated by the temperature detection circuit 1402 will change, the wide voltage range comparator circuit 1403 changes the comparison output signal Vo1 obtained by the first temperature detection output signal Vin1 and the second temperature detection output signal Vin2 to a low level signal, the temperature protection signal OTLock obtained by the second output shaping circuit 1404 also changes to a low level logic signal, the temperature protection signal OTLock changes to a low level, the OTLock low level will control the clamp circuit 1401 to generate a lower bias voltage Vb, the bias voltage Vb will further change the magnitudes of the first temperature detection output signal Vin1 and the second temperature detection output signal Vin2, so that the comparison output signal Vo1 of the wide voltage range comparator circuit 1403 is further locked to a low level signal.
Since the high-voltage gate driving chip normally works, the power supply voltage and the substrate potential of the high-voltage gate driving chip generally have huge fluctuation, and very serious common mode noise is generated. In order to overcome the serious influence of common mode noise, on one hand, the invention adopts the wide voltage range comparator circuit 1403 to compare the first temperature detection output signal Vin1 and the second temperature detection output signal Vin2 generated by the temperature detection circuit 1402, the wide voltage range comparator circuit 1403 can automatically detect common mode noise generated by the power supply voltage and the substrate potential, and when the common mode noise exceeds a certain threshold value, the output of the wide voltage range comparator circuit 1403 is automatically closed, so that the effectiveness of the comparison output signal Vo1 is not influenced by the common mode noise. On the other hand, the second output shaping circuit 1404 further employs RC low-pass filtering and schmitt trigger combined filtering to filter out the effects of high frequency noise, thereby producing a stable and reliable temperature-protected output signal OTLock.

In the clamp circuit 101, the power supply voltage VCC is detected by the voltage dividing resistors R11, R12 and R13 in real time, the voltage value Vb obtained by the voltage division is input into the temperature detecting circuit 1402, the resistance value of R13 is controlled by M13, and the on and off of M13 is controlled by OTLock signals. When OTLock signal is high level, the grid of M13 is low, M13 is in off state, R13 is large resistance, and voltage value Vb obtained by voltage division is high bias voltage; when OTLock is low, the gate of M13 is high, M13 is on, R13 is shorted by M13 to a small resistance, and the divided voltage value Vb is a low bias voltage.
FIG. 18 shows an implementation of a temperature sensing circuit 1402 according to the present invention, which is composed of a PMOS tube M21, a PMOS tube M22, a resistor R21, a triode Q1 and a triode Q2; the base electrodes of the triode Q1 and the triode Q2 are connected and connected to a bias voltage Vb output node of the clamping circuit 101; the emitter of the triode Q1 is connected to the grid electrode and the drain electrode of the PMOS tube M21, and the node voltage of the triode Q is used as a first temperature detection output signal Vin1; the emitter of the triode Q2 is connected to the grid electrode and the drain electrode of the PMOS tube M22, and the node voltage of the triode Q is used as a second temperature detection output signal Vin2; the source electrode of the PMOS tube M21 is connected with the source electrode of the PMOS tube M22 and is connected to the power supply voltage; the collector of the triode Q2 is connected to the upper end of a resistor R21; the lower end of the resistor R21 is connected to the collector of the transistor Q1 and to the ground voltage GND. The width-to-length ratio of the PMOS transistor M21 and the PMOS transistor M22 is equal, and the base area ratio of the transistor Q1 and the transistor Q2 is 1: n (N is a natural number).
The principle adopted in the circuit temperature detection in fig. 18 is that the triode Vbe junction voltage has a negative temperature coefficient characteristic, and the negative temperature coefficients of the Vbe junctions with different current densities are different, so that under the same bias voltage condition, a voltage difference is generated by the voltages generated on the two Vbe junctions with different current densities along with the change of temperature, and the voltage difference is in a linear increasing relation along with the change of temperature. In fig. 18, the base area ratio of transistor Q1 to transistor Q2 is 1: n, the emitters of the two emitters respectively output voltages, and the first temperature detection output signal Vin1 and the second temperature detection output signal Vin2 will generate a voltage difference vt=vjn1-vjn2 that varies linearly with temperature. By adjusting the size of resistor R21, vt is set to a negative value less than 0 when the temperature is low; when the temperature increases, the value of the second temperature detection output signal Vin2 will decrease at a faster rate due to the larger base area of the transistor Q2, and the voltage difference Vt will increase with the temperature increase; when the temperature exceeds a certain value, vt will be changed from negative voltage to positive voltage, and the comparison output voltage Vo1 of the wide voltage range comparator circuit 103 will change, and the output voltage Vo1 will change from high to low. When the base voltages Vb of transistors Q1 and Q2 decrease, the voltage difference Vt will further increase, thereby locking the comparison output voltage Vo1.
