IGBT Drive Protecting Circuit according to the foregoing description; Through the driving voltage monitoring modular that utilizes a control chip, is connected with control chip; And short circuit that is connected with control chip and overcurrent protection module, realized simultaneously the under-voltage protection of IGBT and short circuit, overcurrent protection.Because control chip itself has higher integrated level; The multinomial processing that it can provide reliably, accuracy is high, logic is comparatively complicated; Therefore when building the IGBT Drive Protecting Circuit; Only need to build the peripheral circuit that comprises the little electrons device, can realize efficient and high monitoring and the protection of reliability IGBT based on control chip.
Further, in the IGBT of the foregoing description Drive Protecting Circuit, control chip is preferably the NE555 chip.
Wherein, the NE555 chip is the medium scale integrated circuit that a kind of digital circuit combines with analog circuit.This circuit uses flexibly, conveniently only needs external a spot of Resistor-Capacitor Unit just can constitute monostable flipflop and multivibrator etc., thereby is widely used in generation, conversion, control and the detection of signal.Its working method generally can reduce three types, that is: monostable, bistable state and do not have stable state.Wherein, monostable is mainly used in timer, eliminates shake, branch, frequency multiplication and pulse output etc.; Bistable state is mainly used in comparator, latch, inverter, square wave output and shaping etc.; No stable state is mainly used in square wave output, power conversion and timing etc.In the IGBT Drive Protecting Circuit of the foregoing description, the NE555 chip operates mainly in monostable and bistable state, is used for timer and comparator.
Fig. 2 is the physical circuit figure of the utility model example I GBT Drive Protecting Circuit.As shown in Figure 2,8 pins of NE555 chip are used to realize following connection: the NE555 chip is connected with the driving voltage monitoring modular through first pin, the 4th pin and the 8th pin; Receive preset reference voltage (Vref) through the 5th pin; Receive the collector voltage (Vce) of IGBT through the 6th pin; Through first pin, second pin, the 3rd pin and the 8th pin, be connected with short circuit and overcurrent protection module; Export first fault-signal and second fault-signal through the 7th pin, the first pin ground connection (GND) wherein, the 8th pin connects with driving voltage (VDD) and is connected.
More particularly; The driving voltage monitoring modular comprises the positive-negative-positive triode, be connected the first resistance (R1 between the base stage of said driving voltage and positive-negative-positive triode (VT1); For example for 1.5K Europe), be connected second resistance (R2 for example is 6.8K Europe) between the emitter of driving voltage VDD and positive-negative-positive triode VT1, be connected voltage-stabiliser tube between the base stage of ground connection GND and positive-negative-positive triode VT1 (Z1, for example use is integrated with the Z4 type voltage-stabiliser tube equipment of two voltage-stabiliser tubes; Can choose wherein any place in circuit; Another is vacant), and be connected the 3rd resistance (R3 for example is 100K Europe) between the collector electrode of ground connection GND and positive-negative-positive triode VT1.Wherein, the collector electrode of positive-negative-positive triode VT1 is connected with the 4th pin of NE555 chip, is used for according to the conducting of this positive-negative-positive triode VT1 or ends, and imports corresponding high level or low level to the 4th pin of NE555 chip.The 3rd resistance R 3 is as current-limiting resistance, and first resistance R 1, second resistance R 2 and voltage-stabiliser tube Z1 all are used to control the conducting of positive-negative-positive triode VT1 or end.
The driving voltage monitoring modular matches with the NE555 chip; The principle that realizes the driving voltage monitoring is following: driving voltage VDD is a voltage to be monitored, and driving voltage VDD also is the NE555 chip power supply simultaneously, when driving voltage VDD just often; Positive-negative-positive triode VT1 conducting, NE555 chip operate as normal; When driving voltage VDD crosses when low, positive-negative-positive triode VT1 ends, and the NE555 chip is in reset mode, this moment the NE555 chip the 7th pin output low level fault-signal, locking pulse also turn-offs IGBT.In this way, realized when driving voltage is in under-voltage condition, to the protection of IGBT.
Further, short circuit and overcurrent protection module comprise isolated gate FET (VT2 for example is the N channel enhancement metal-oxide-semiconductor of SS model) and second electric capacity (C2 for example is 330nF), wherein:
Isolated gate FET VT2 is open-minded when the IGBT fault-free, and charge to second capacitor C 2 this moment; And when IGBT has fault, end, discharge to second capacitor C 2 this moment.
Second capacitor C 2 is used under discharge condition, to control chip fault-signal duration index signal is provided.

Through above-mentioned connection; Short circuit and overcurrent protection module match with the NE555 chip; The principle that realizes short circuit and overcurrent voltage protection is following: because collector voltage Vce and the collector current of IGBT are approximated to proportional relation, so adopt detection IGBT collector saturation voltage to judge IGBT whether overcurrent or short circuit.Preset reference voltage Vref is for example for to be provided by reference power supply, or adopts constant-current source connecting resistance form to provide, wherein when employing constant-current source connecting resistance form provides; Circuit is complicated; But be not subject to disturb, can increase the stability of circuit, so can be applicable to the high-power driving plate; When adopting reference power supply to provide, circuit is simpler, but anti-interference is relatively poor, so can be applicable to the small-power drive plate.When IGBT overcurrent or short circuit, collector voltage Vce rises, and reaches the limit value of crossing of user's setting as collector voltage Vce; When promptly reaching Vce more than or equal to preset reference voltage Vref, Drive Protecting Circuit work, the fault-signal of the 7th pin of NE555 chip (protect pin) output low level; Turn-off IGBT; And this fault-signal keeps a period of time, and the length of this time is the discharge duration of second capacitor C 2 in short circuit and the overcurrent protection module, the long at this moment interior input pulse that blocks.
In the IGBT of the foregoing description Drive Protecting Circuit; Through preset reference voltage Vref and collector voltage Vce being inserted two inputs of the comparator of NE555 chip; Promptly the 5th pin and the 6th pin are realized the comparison to these two magnitudes of voltage, and according to whether overcurrent or short circuit of comparative result IGBT; Thereby send corresponding fault-signal, realize effective overcurrent or short-circuit protection.
Further; Because IGBT is in conducting just but during unsaturation; Collector voltage Vce is very big, for preventing Drive Protecting Circuit misoperation this moment, can between collector voltage Vce that detects and ground connection GND, add the 3rd electric capacity (not shown) the protection response time is set; With in the protection response time, IGBT short circuit and overcurrent protection function are in disarmed state.
Further, in the IGBT of the foregoing description Drive Protecting Circuit, also comprise:
Be connected first electric capacity (C1 for example is 47nF) between driving voltage VDD and the ground connection GND, this first capacitor C 1 is as filter capacitor.
