In order to make those skilled in the art better understand the technical solutions of the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments in the present application without making any creative effort belong to the protection scope of the present application.
Referring to fig. 1, the schematic diagram of an IGBT turn-off voltage spike suppression circuit provided in an embodiment of the present application, the circuit includes: the device comprises a signal processing module, a resistance module, an insulated gate bipolar transistor IGBT and a voltage comparison module.
The signal processing module, the resistance module, the insulated gate bipolar transistor IGBT and the voltage comparison module are connected in series.
Illustratively, the first end of the resistance module and the second end of the voltage comparison module are connected to the signal processing module, the second end of the resistance module is connected to the gate of the insulated gate bipolar transistor IGBT, and the collector of the insulated gate bipolar transistor IGBT is connected to the first end of the voltage comparison module.
And the signal processing module is used for controlling the resistance module to be connected into the impedance of the IGBT turn-off voltage spike suppression circuit based on the acquired turn-off signal.
Illustratively, the turn-off signal may include a first turn-off signal, a second turn-off signal, and a third turn-off signal. The first turn-off signal may be a signal that a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) signal input to the signal processing module by the processor changes from a high level to a low level, and is used to instruct to start to turn off the IGBT, and at this time, the impedance that the resistance module is connected to the IGBT turn-off voltage spike suppression circuit may be controlled to be a first impedance; the second turn-off signal can be triggered by a trigger signal input by the voltage comparison module, and at the moment, the voltage between the emitter and the collector of the insulated gate bipolar transistor IGBT is greater than a preset reference voltage, so that the impedance of the resistor module connected to the IGBT turn-off voltage spike suppression circuit can be controlled to be a second impedance; the third turn-off signal can be automatically triggered after a certain time passes after the second turn-off signal is triggered, at this time, the IGBT turn-off voltage spike can be considered to be ended, and the impedance of the resistance module connected to the IGBT turn-off voltage spike suppression circuit can be controlled to be third impedance.
And the voltage comparison module is used for comparing the voltage between the emitter and the collector of the insulated gate bipolar transistor IGBT with a preset reference voltage, and inputting a trigger signal to the signal processing module if the voltage between the emitter and the collector of the insulated gate bipolar transistor IGBT is greater than the preset reference voltage.
Illustratively, the trigger signal is used to trigger the second turn-off signal. After the first impedance is connected to the IGBT turn-off voltage spike suppression circuit, the voltage VCE between the emitter and the collector of the insulated gate bipolar transistor IGBT starts to rise. A reference voltage VCE _ REF may be preset in the voltage comparison module, and for example, VCE _ REF may be set as a bus voltage, or may be set according to actual requirements.
In the turn-off process of the IGBT, the grid electrode of the IGBT is reduced from positive voltage to 0 or negative voltage, at the moment, a conducting channel in a device slowly disappears, the current of the grid electrode is gradually reduced, the voltage VCE between an emitter electrode and a collector electrode is continuously increased and then reduced within a period of time to form a voltage spike, the size of the voltage spike is related to the reduction rate of the current, and the reduction rate of the current is mainly related to the turn-off speed. In order to avoid that the turn-off speed is too high due to the fact that the first impedance is small, and then the VCE is too large to cause the insulated gate bipolar transistor IGBT to be broken down by overvoltage, when the voltage comparison module detects that the VCE is larger than VCE _ REF, the voltage detection module inputs a trigger signal to the signal processing module, the trigger signal is used for triggering a second turn-off signal, the trigger second turn-off signal can control the resistance module to be connected to the impedance of the IGBT turn-off voltage spike suppression circuit to be second impedance, and the second impedance can be larger than the first impedance, so that the turn-off speed of the IGBT can be reduced.
As an example, a preset time length may be preconfigured in the signal processing module, timing is started when the signal processing module obtains the second turn-off signal or controls the resistance module to access the impedance of the IGBT turn-off voltage spike suppression circuit as the second impedance, and after the preset time length, the resistance module may be controlled to access the impedance of the IGBT turn-off voltage spike suppression circuit as the third impedance. Wherein the third impedance may be less than the second impedance, and the predetermined duration may be greater than or equal to the predicted duration of the voltage spike.
Therefore, the IGBT turn-off voltage spike suppression circuit can provide different impedances aiming at different stages in the turn-off process of the insulated gate bipolar transistor IGBT, and control the collector current falling speed of the insulated gate bipolar transistor IGBT, so that the turn-off speed of the insulated gate bipolar transistor IGBT is controlled, the voltage spike in the turn-off process of the insulated gate bipolar transistor IGBT is suppressed, the possibility that the IGBT is broken down by overvoltage due to the IGBT turn-off spike is reduced, and the reliability of the IGBT is improved.

When the signal processing module acquires a first turn-off signal, controlling a first resistor to be connected into an IGBT turn-off voltage spike suppression circuit to provide first impedance; when the signal processing module acquires a second turn-off signal, controlling a second resistor to be connected into the IGBT turn-off voltage spike suppression circuit to provide second impedance, wherein the second impedance is larger than the first impedance; when the signal processing module acquires a third off signal, the first resistor and the second resistor are controlled to be simultaneously connected to the IGBT off-voltage spike suppression circuit, the first resistor and the second resistor are connected in parallel to provide third impedance, and the third impedance is smaller than the second impedance.
Optionally, the first switch may be a MOS transistor or a transistor, and the second switch may be a MOS transistor or a transistor. Therefore, the signal processing module can enable the first resistor to be connected to the IGBT turn-off voltage spike suppression circuit by pulling up the gate electrode control signal GQ1 of the first switch Q1; the gate control signal GQ2 of the second switch Q2 is pulled high, so that the second resistor is connected to the IGBT turn-off voltage spike suppression circuit; under the condition that the second resistor is connected with the IGBT turn-off voltage spike suppression circuit, the gate control signal GQ1 of the first switch Q1 is pulled high again, so that the first resistor and the second resistor are connected with the IGBT turn-off voltage spike suppression circuit at the same time.

When the Q4 is conducted and the Q3 is cut off, the voltage of the VCE of the Q3 is 1000V, so that the diode D1 can play a role of blocking high voltage and protect the voltage comparator U1 from being broken down by high voltage; when Q4 is turned off and Q3 is turned on, the VCE voltage of Q3 is a saturation voltage drop VCE _ sat, and the input voltage VCE _ DE of the voltage comparator is the sum of the VCE voltages VCE _ sat of the diode voltage drops VF _ D1 and Q3, so that the VCE voltage of Q3 can be detected in the turn-off process of Q3.
