Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of electronics, in particular to a direct drive circuit of a depletion type power device with low reverse conduction voltage drop.
Background
The third generation semiconductor material, GaN (gallium nitride), is an outstanding representative of wide bandgap semiconductors. The forbidden band width of GaN is 3 times that of Si, and the breakdown electric field is 10 times that of Si. Therefore, the power device made of gallium nitride has the remarkable characteristics of high switching speed, low on-resistance, small chip area and the like, and is widely applied to the fields of power adapters, industrial power supplies, automobile electronics and the like.
GaN power devices are typically separated into normally-on (depletion) and normally-off gallium nitride (enhancement). The enhancement device has narrow driving voltage range, generally needs a special driving IC to drive, and has weak channel current capability, so the application of the enhancement device is limited to a certain extent; the depletion type GaN power device has strong current capability and high reliability, but needs negative pressure shutoff, and generally needs to be cascaded with a low-voltage Si device to form a normally-closed characteristic.
The cascade type GaN device needs a low-voltage Si MOSFET device and a depletion type GaN power device to be used in a cascade mode to form a normally-closed characteristic, but the low-voltage Si device has reverse recovery charges, which can bring switching loss and reduce system efficiency; that is to say, the conventional cascade structure cannot directly drive the D mode GaN device, and therefore cannot fully exert the advantages of no reverse recovery loss and high switching speed of GaN.
Meanwhile, the cascade GaN device has the problem that the output capacitance of the low-voltage Si MOSFET and the output capacitance of the depletion type GaN are not matched, and the high-frequency switch has failure risk.

In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in further detail below.
As shown in fig. 1, the direct drive circuit of the depletion mode power device with low reverse conduction voltage drop of the present invention comprises: the power supply circuit comprises a driving circuit 1, a depletion type power device S1, a first P-type MOSFET S2, a power supply voltage detection circuit 2, a second P-type MOSFET S4, a diode D1, a capacitor C1, a galvanic isolation detection circuit 3 and a reverse current detection circuit 4. The depletion type power device S1 is a depletion type gallium nitride device or a depletion type silicon carbide device. A negative voltage is required between the gate and the source of the depletion mode power device S1 to effectively turn off the channel of the depletion mode power device. The channels of the first P-type MOSFET S2 and the second P-type MOSFET S4 need to have a negative gate-source voltage turned on (the threshold voltage is negative) and a positive gate-source voltage turned off.
The VCC terminal of the driving circuit 1 is connected to a supply voltage.
The gate of the depletion mode power device S1 is connected to the output terminal of the driving circuit 1.
The source of the first P-type MOSFET S2 is connected with the source of the depletion-mode power device S1.
The input end of the supply voltage detection circuit 2 is connected with the supply voltage, and the output end of the supply voltage detection circuit 2 is connected with the grid electrode of the first P-type MOSFET S2.
The drain of the second P-type MOSFET S4 is connected to a supply voltage, the gate of the second P-type MOSFET S4 is connected between the supply voltage detection circuit 2 and the gate of the first P-type MOSFET S2, and the source of the second P-type MOSFET S4 is connected between the source of the depletion mode power device S1 and the source of the first P-type MOSFET.
When the supply voltage VCC is higher than the set value, the second P-type MOSFET S4 is turned on, and the source of the depletion type power device S1 is directly connected to the supply voltage VCC, so that the potential of the source of the depletion type power device S1 is equal to the supply voltage of the driving circuit 1.
The anode of the diode D1 is connected between the output terminal of the driving circuit 1 and the gate of the depletion mode power device S1, and the cathode of the diode D1 is connected to the drain of the first P-type MOSFET S2.
One end of the capacitor C1 is connected to the ground terminal of the driving circuit 1, and the other end of the capacitor C1 is connected between the source of the depletion mode power device S1 and the source of the first P-type MOSFET S2. A capacitor C1 is arranged between the driving circuit 1 and the depletion type power device S1, so that the voltage between the source of the depletion type power device and the power supply ground is kept stable, and interference is prevented.
The input end of the galvanic isolation detection circuit 3 is connected in series with the drain of the first P-type MOSFET S2, and the galvanic isolation detection circuit 3 is used for detecting the flow direction of the current at the drain of the first P-type MOSFET S2 and the magnitude of the forward current.
One end of the reverse current detection circuit 4 is connected to the output end of the galvanic isolation detection circuit 3, the other end of the reverse current detection circuit 4 is connected to the driving circuit 1, and the reverse current detection circuit 4 is configured to control the output of the driving circuit 1 according to the flow direction of the current at the drain of the first P-type MOSFET S2 and the magnitude of the forward current.
Specifically, the detection of the reverse current can be realized by detecting a current signal through a current transformer, then converting the current signal into a voltage signal through a resistor, and conducting in the forward direction if the voltage signal is a positive value, or conducting in the reverse direction otherwise. Or the voltage signal is conducted in the positive direction when the voltage signal is negative, and otherwise, the voltage signal is conducted in the reverse direction. In addition, the detection of the reverse current can also be detected by a resistor directly or by other magnetic field induction circuits, but is not limited to this, and can be specifically adjusted according to different circuits.
Specifically, the reverse current detection circuit 4 controls the output of the driving circuit 1 according to the flowing direction of the current at the drain of the first P-type MOSFET S2 and the magnitude of the forward current, and specifically includes:
when the current at the drain of the first P-type MOSFET S2 flows from the drain of the first P-type MOSFET S2 to the source of the depletion-type power device S1, the reverse current detection circuit 4 generates an on signal for causing the drive circuit 1 to output a high level, and transmits it to the drive circuit 1.
When the forward current exceeds the current threshold, the reverse current detection circuit 4 generates a limit signal for limiting the output pulse width of the drive circuit 1 and sends the limit signal to the drive circuit 1.
Preferably, the direct drive circuit of the depletion mode power device S1 with low reverse conduction voltage drop further comprises a first resistor R1. One end of the first resistor R1 is connected between the capacitor C1 and the source of the depletion mode power device S1, and the other end of the first resistor R1 is connected between the output end of the supply voltage detection circuit 2 and the gate of the first P-type MOSFET S2.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, the supply voltage detection circuit includes: a zener diode D2, a first resistor R2, a first resistor R3, and a transistor S3.
Wherein the cathode of the zener diode D2 is connected to the supply voltage.
One end of the first resistor R2 is connected to the anode of the zener diode D2, and the other end of the first resistor R2 is connected to one end of the first resistor R3.
The other end of the first resistor R3 is connected with the ground of the power supply voltage.
The base of the transistor S3 is connected between the first resistor R2 and the first resistor R3; the collector of the triode S3 is connected with the gate of the first P-type MOSFET S2; the emitter of the transistor S3 is connected to ground of the supply voltage.
When the voltage across the first resistor R3 reaches 0.7V, the transistor S3 is turned on, the gates of the first P-type MOSFET S2 and the second P-type MOSFET S4 are pulled to ground, the voltage across the first resistor R1 is VCC, and the first P-type MOSFET S2 and the second P-type MOSFET S4 are turned on.
When the power supply voltage is lower than a certain set value, the triode S3 is in an off state, the voltage across the first resistor R1 is 0, that is, the gate-source voltage of the first P-type MOSFET S2 and the second P-type MOSFET S4 is 0, so that the first P-type MOSFET S2 and the second P-type MOSFET S4 are in an off state. Meanwhile, due to the action of the diode D1, the first P-type MOSFET S2 and the second P-type MOSFET S4 are equivalent to a cascade structure, and the Drain and the Source are in a high-impedance off state. Specifically, the set value is determined by the Zener diode D1 and the first resistor R2 and the first resistor R3.
When the power supply voltage rises to be larger than the set value, the triode S3 is turned on, the point F is pulled to be low, the voltage across the first resistor R1 is the power supply voltage, the gate-source voltage of the first P-type MOSFET S2 and the second P-type MOSFET S4 is-VCC, the first P-type MOSFET S2 and the second P-type MOSFET S4 are turned on, and the turning on and off of the first P-type MOSFET S2 is determined by the output OUT of the driving circuit 1. The supply voltage is directly connected through the turned-on second P-type MOSFET S4 and the source of the depletion mode power device S1 so the source of the depletion mode power device S1 is at the supply voltage level.
When the output OUT of the driving circuit 1 is at a high level, the gate of the depletion-mode power device S1 is at a high level VCC, so the gate-source voltage difference of the depletion-mode power device S1 is 0V, and the depletion-mode power device S1 is turned on. When the output of the driving circuit 1 is at low level 0, the gate of the depletion mode power device S1 is at low level 0V, and the gate-source voltage difference of the depletion mode power device S1 is-VCC (-VCC < Vth) Vth which is a threshold voltage, so the depletion mode power device S1 is turned off.
Therefore, the driving circuit can directly drive the depletion type power device, namely when the driving circuit directly drives the depletion type power device after the supply voltage is established, the output of the driving circuit is 0 level, the depletion type power device is switched off, and the depletion type power device is switched on when the output of the driving circuit is high level.
The invention can make the depletion type power device in a normally closed state and directly drive the depletion type power device, the depletion type power device is directly opened when the driving circuit outputs a high level, and the depletion type power device is turned off when the driving circuit outputs a low level, which is similar to the drive of a common Si MOSFET. Because the depletion type power device is directly driven, the driving speed is high, the driving loss is low, and the system switching loss is small. When the cascade-connected P-type MOSFET works, the cascade-connected P-type MOSFET is in a normally-on state, so that reverse recovery loss can not be generated, namely the overall reverse recovery charge is 0, and the reverse recovery loss is 0.
The reverse current isolation detection circuit is added, so that the reverse conduction current and the overlarge forward current can be detected, and the power tube is switched on or the pulse width of the power is limited correspondingly, so that the reverse conduction loss of the power tube is greatly reduced, and the overlarge forward current is limited.
Meanwhile, after the power supply voltage VCC of the driving circuit is established, the first P-type MOSFET is normally conductive in work, so that the problem that the capacitances of a depletion type power device and a low-voltage Silicon device are not matched does not exist.
As shown in fig. 3, the present invention also provides a sealing scheme: the driving circuit 1, the depletion type power device S1, the first P-type MOSFET S2, the supply voltage detection circuit 2, the second P-type MOSFET S4, the diode D1, the capacitor C1, the galvanic isolation detection circuit 3, the reverse current detection circuit 4, and the first resistor R1 are sealed together. The invention seals all parts into a whole, thereby forming a new power IC, and only 5 Pin pins are needed: PWM signal pin, VCC power supply pin, VCC ground signal pin, Drain pin and Source pin.
The principles and embodiments of the present invention have been described herein using specific examples, which are provided only to help understand the method and the core concept of the present invention; meanwhile, for a person skilled in the art, according to the idea of the present invention, the specific embodiments and the application range may be changed. In view of the above, the present disclosure should not be construed as limiting the invention.
