(Embodiment 1)
FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a motor drive device according to the first embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, AC power is applied from an AC power source 1 to a rectifier circuit 2 and converted into DC power to constitute a DC power source. A DC power is converted into three-phase AC power by an inverter circuit 3 to drive a motor 4. In the rectifier circuit 2, capacitors 21a and 21b are connected in series to the DC output terminal of the full-wave rectifier circuit 20, and a connection point of the capacitors 21a and 21b is connected to one terminal of the AC power supply input to constitute a DC voltage doubler circuit. The voltage applied to the inverter circuit 3 is increased to reduce the current, thereby reducing the circuit loss. The current detection means 5 is connected to the negative voltage side of the inverter circuit 3, and the output current of the inverter circuit 3, that is, each phase current of the motor 4 is detected by detecting the current flowing through the lower arms of the three phases of the inverter circuit 3. Then, the control means 6 controls the drive current of the motor 4 to control the rotation.

電流検出手段5は、いわゆる3シャント方式と呼ばれるもので、インバータ回路3の下アームトランジスタのエミッタ端子に接続されたシャント抵抗50a、50b、50c(以下、総称する場合は、シャント抵抗50と称する)と、シャント抵抗50a、50b、50cのそれぞれに流れる電流を検出する電流信号増幅手段51より構成される。   The current detecting means 5 is a so-called three-shunt system, and is connected to the emitter terminal of the lower arm transistor of the inverter circuit 3 (referred to as a shunt resistor 50 hereinafter). And a current signal amplifying means 51 for detecting the current flowing through each of the shunt resistors 50a, 50b, 50c.

シャント抵抗50a、50b、50cの電流入力端子52a、52b、52cはそれぞれインバータ回路3の下アームトランジスタのエミッタ端子に接続され、グランド側の共通端子53を整流回路2の負電圧側端子L2に接続する。また、電流信号増幅手段51の出力端子54a、54b、54cは制御手段6のA/D変換器の入力端子に接続され、電流信号増幅手段51の直流電源端子55は制御手段6のA/D変換器の直流電源電圧端子(Vcc)に接続される。   The current input terminals 52a, 52b, and 52c of the shunt resistors 50a, 50b, and 50c are respectively connected to the emitter terminal of the lower arm transistor of the inverter circuit 3, and the ground side common terminal 53 is connected to the negative voltage side terminal L2 of the rectifier circuit 2. To do. The output terminals 54 a, 54 b and 54 c of the current signal amplifying means 51 are connected to the input terminal of the A / D converter of the control means 6, and the DC power supply terminal 55 of the current signal amplifying means 51 is connected to the A / D of the control means 6. Connected to the DC power supply voltage terminal (Vcc) of the converter.

電流検出手段5は3シャント方式電流検出と呼ばれるものであり、インバータ回路出力電流、すなわち、モータ相電流を検出して、ベクトル制御や位置センサレス正弦波駆動を行うもので、下アームトランジスタ、又は下アームの逆並列ダイオードが導通したタイミングにてモータ電流に対応した電流を検出する。3シャント方式は、下アームトランジスタの導通時間と、デッドタイムを確保することによりモータ相電流に対応した電流検出が可能となり、直流電流トランスを省略して低価格の電流検出が可能となる。いわゆる、1シャント方式は、キャリヤ周波数が高い場合や、変調度が大きくなった場合には電流検出不可能領域が出現するので、3シャント方式の方が高速で正確な電流検出が可能となる。   The current detection means 5 is called three-shunt type current detection, and detects inverter circuit output current, that is, motor phase current, and performs vector control or position sensorless sine wave drive. The current corresponding to the motor current is detected at the timing when the antiparallel diode of the arm is turned on. The three-shunt method enables current detection corresponding to the motor phase current by securing the conduction time and dead time of the lower arm transistor, and enables low-cost current detection by omitting the DC current transformer. In the so-called one-shunt method, when the carrier frequency is high or the modulation degree becomes large, an area where current cannot be detected appears. Therefore, the three-shunt method can detect current more quickly and accurately.

制御手段6は、マイクロコンピュータ、あるいはディジタルシグナルプロセッサ(略してDSP)等のA/D変換器内蔵の高速プロセッサより構成され、電流検出手段5からの電流出力信号をA/D変換器によりディジタル信号に変換し、インバータ回路3をPWM制御してモータ電流を制御しセンサレス駆動やベクトル制御するものである。   The control means 6 is constituted by a microcomputer or a high-speed processor with a built-in A / D converter such as a digital signal processor (abbreviated as DSP), and the current output signal from the current detection means 5 is converted into a digital signal by the A / D converter. Then, the inverter circuit 3 is PWM-controlled to control the motor current to perform sensorless driving or vector control.

また、シャント抵抗50a、50b、50cの共通接続点C、すなわち、共通端子53を接地電位とし、共通端子53を制御手段6のグランド端子(GND)に接続することにより電流検出手段5、制御手段6の各回路の各接地電位を共通にすることにより回路の直流電源を減らし、部品点数を減らすことができる。   Further, by connecting the common connection point C of the shunt resistors 50a, 50b and 50c, that is, the common terminal 53 to the ground potential and connecting the common terminal 53 to the ground terminal (GND) of the control means 6, the current detection means 5 and the control means. By making each ground potential of each circuit 6 common, the DC power supply of the circuit can be reduced and the number of parts can be reduced.

シャント抵抗50と電流信号増幅手段51を一体化して電流検出モジュールとすることにより、シャント抵抗50と電流信号増幅手段51間の配線を短くすることができ、配線インピーダンスによる電流検出誤差をほとんどなくすことができる。さらに、モジュール化による部品点数削減、あるいは、電流信号増幅手段のゲイン微調整が可能となる。   By integrating the shunt resistor 50 and the current signal amplifying means 51 into a current detection module, the wiring between the shunt resistor 50 and the current signal amplifying means 51 can be shortened, and current detection errors due to wiring impedance are almost eliminated. Can do. Furthermore, the number of components can be reduced by modularization, or the gain of the current signal amplification means can be finely adjusted.

図2はインバータ回路3の詳細な回路図であり、6個のトランジスタとダイオードよりなる3相フルブリッジインバータ回路により構成している。ここで、3相アームの1つのU相アーム30Aについて説明すると、絶縁ゲートバイポーラトランジスタ(以下、IGBTと略す)よりなる上アームトランジスタ31a1と逆並列ダイオード32a1の並列接続体と、IGBTよりなる下アームトランジスタ31a2と逆並列ダイオード32a2の並列接続体を直列関係に接続し、上アームトランジスタ31a1のコレクタ端子は直流電源の正電位端子L1に接続し、上アームトランジスタ31a1のエミッタ端子はモータ4への出力端子Uに接続し、下アームトランジスタ31a2のエミッタ端子Nuは電流検出手段5を構成するシャント抵抗50aを介して整流回路2よりなる直流電源の負電位側端子L2に接続する。   FIG. 2 is a detailed circuit diagram of the inverter circuit 3, which is constituted by a three-phase full-bridge inverter circuit comprising six transistors and diodes. Here, one U-phase arm 30A of the three-phase arm will be described. A parallel connection body of an upper arm transistor 31a1 made of an insulated gate bipolar transistor (hereinafter abbreviated as IGBT) and an antiparallel diode 32a1, and a lower arm made of IGBT. The parallel connection body of the transistor 31a2 and the antiparallel diode 32a2 is connected in series, the collector terminal of the upper arm transistor 31a1 is connected to the positive potential terminal L1 of the DC power supply, and the emitter terminal of the upper arm transistor 31a1 is the output to the motor 4 Connected to the terminal U, the emitter terminal Nu of the lower arm transistor 31a2 is connected to the negative potential side terminal L2 of the DC power source comprising the rectifier circuit 2 through the shunt resistor 50a constituting the current detecting means 5.

上アームトランジスタ31a1は上アーム駆動信号Upに応じて上アームゲート駆動回路33a1により駆動され、下アームトランジスタ31a2は下アーム駆動信号Unに応じて下アームゲート駆動回路33a2によりオンオフスイッチング制御される。上アームゲート駆動回路33a1は、微分信号によりセットリセットされるRSフリップフロップ回路を内蔵し、上アーム駆動信号Upの立ち上がりで上アームトランジスタ31a1をオン動作させ、上アーム駆動信号Upの立ち下がりで上アームトランジスタ31a1をオフ動作させる。下アームゲート駆動回路33a2にはRSフリップフロップ回路は不必要であり、内蔵していない。   The upper arm transistor 31a1 is driven by the upper arm gate drive circuit 33a1 in accordance with the upper arm drive signal Up, and the lower arm transistor 31a2 is subjected to on / off switching control by the lower arm gate drive circuit 33a2 in accordance with the lower arm drive signal Un. The upper arm gate drive circuit 33a1 incorporates an RS flip-flop circuit that is set and reset by a differential signal, turns on the upper arm transistor 31a1 at the rise of the upper arm drive signal Up, and rises at the fall of the upper arm drive signal Up. The arm transistor 31a1 is turned off. The lower arm gate drive circuit 33a2 does not need an RS flip-flop circuit and does not incorporate it.

IGBTのゲート印加電圧は10〜15V必要であり、下アームトランジスタ31a2をオンさせると、15Vの直流電源の+端子B1よりブートストラップ抵抗34a、ブートストラップダイオード35aを介してブートストラップコンデンサ36aが充電されるので、ブートストラップコンデンサ36aの蓄積エネルギーにより上アームトランジスタ31a1をオンオフスイッチングできる。また、下アームの逆並列ダイオード32a2が導通した場合にも同様にブートストラップコンデンサ36aが充電される。   The gate application voltage of the IGBT needs 10 to 15V. When the lower arm transistor 31a2 is turned on, the bootstrap capacitor 36a is charged from the + terminal B1 of the 15V DC power supply through the bootstrap resistor 34a and the bootstrap diode 35a. Therefore, the upper arm transistor 31a1 can be switched on / off by the energy stored in the bootstrap capacitor 36a. Similarly, the bootstrap capacitor 36a is charged when the lower arm antiparallel diode 32a2 is turned on.

インバータ回路3の遮断信号端子Ofに過電流信号を加えることによりインバータ回路3のU相、V相、W相各下アームトランジスタが瞬時にターンオフする。   By applying an overcurrent signal to the cutoff signal terminal Of of the inverter circuit 3, the U-phase, V-phase, and W-phase lower arm transistors of the inverter circuit 3 are instantaneously turned off.

V相アーム30B、W相アーム30Cも同様の接続であり、各アームの下アームトランジスタのエミッタ端子Nv、Nwは電流検出手段5を構成するシャント抵抗50b、50cに接続し、シャント抵抗50b、50cの他方の端子は直流電源負電位端子L2に接続している。IGBT、あるいはパワーMOSFETにより下アームトランジスタを構成すると、ゲート電圧を制御することによりスイッチング制御できるので、IGBTの場合はエミッタ端子、パワーMOSFETの場合にはソース端子に接続するシャント抵抗の電圧が1V以下となるように抵抗値を選定すればスイッチング動作にはほとんど影響することなく電圧制御によりオンオフスイッチング制御でき、シャント抵抗50a、50b、50cの電圧veu、vev、vewを検出することによりインバータ回路出力電流、すなわちモータ電流を検出できる特徴がある。   The V-phase arm 30B and the W-phase arm 30C are similarly connected. The emitter terminals Nv and Nw of the lower arm transistors of each arm are connected to the shunt resistors 50b and 50c constituting the current detecting means 5, and the shunt resistors 50b and 50c are connected. Is connected to the DC power source negative potential terminal L2. If the lower arm transistor is configured by an IGBT or a power MOSFET, switching control can be performed by controlling the gate voltage. Therefore, the voltage of the shunt resistor connected to the emitter terminal in the case of IGBT and the source terminal in the case of power MOSFET is 1 V or less. If the resistance value is selected, the on / off switching control can be performed by voltage control with almost no effect on the switching operation, and the inverter circuit output current can be detected by detecting the voltages veu, vev, and vew of the shunt resistors 50a, 50b, 50c. In other words, the motor current can be detected.

図3は、本発明による3シャント式の電流検出手段5の電流信号増幅手段の一実施例を示す詳細な回路図であり、シャント抵抗50a、50b、50cにより検出した交流の電流信号を非反転増幅器により変換増幅し、マイクロコンピュータ等のプロセッサに内蔵するA/D変換器が検出できるDC電圧レベルにレベル変換するものである。   FIG. 3 is a detailed circuit diagram showing an embodiment of the current signal amplifying means of the three-shunt type current detecting means 5 according to the present invention. The AC current signals detected by the shunt resistors 50a, 50b and 50c are non-inverted. The signal is converted and amplified by an amplifier, and level-converted to a DC voltage level that can be detected by an A / D converter incorporated in a processor such as a microcomputer.

電流信号増幅手段51a、51b、51cは同一の回路なので、U相電流信号増幅手段51aについて説明する。シャント抵抗50aに発生する電圧veuのピーク値はインバータ回路3のU相出力電流に対応しており、シャント抵抗電圧veuは電流信号増幅手段の接地電位に対して正と負に変化する。マイクロコンピュータ等に内蔵のA/D変換器は所定のDC電圧で動作するので、DC電圧のセンター値を電流零としセンター値に対して変化するように増幅レベルシフトさせる必要がある。言い換えれば、A/D変換器の入力ダイナミックレンジ内で、モータ電流信号が変化するように設定する。   Since the current signal amplifying means 51a, 51b, 51c are the same circuit, the U-phase current signal amplifying means 51a will be described. The peak value of the voltage veu generated in the shunt resistor 50a corresponds to the U-phase output current of the inverter circuit 3, and the shunt resistance voltage veu changes between positive and negative with respect to the ground potential of the current signal amplification means. Since an A / D converter built in a microcomputer or the like operates at a predetermined DC voltage, it is necessary to shift the amplification level so that the center value of the DC voltage is zero and changes with respect to the center value. In other words, the motor current signal is set to change within the input dynamic range of the A / D converter.

シャント抵抗50aと並列関係にコンデンサ500aを接続し、シャント抵抗50aより第1の入力抵抗501aと第2の入力抵抗502aを直列関係に接続し、電流信号増幅手段51aの直流電源端子55に第2の入力抵抗502aをプルアップ接続する。第1の入力抵抗501a(抵抗値R2)と第2の入力抵抗502a(抵抗値R1)の接続点を演算増幅器503aの非反転入力端子に接続し、演算増幅器503aの出力端子と反転入力端子間に帰還抵抗504a(抵抗値R4)を接続し、反転入力端子と接地電位間に抵抗505a(抵抗値R3)を接続し非反転増幅器を構成する。シャント抵抗50aの抵抗値をRoとすると、シャント抵抗50aの電圧veuは抵抗値Roと電流Iuの積(veu=Ro×Iu)となり、第1の入力抵抗501aと第2の入力抵抗502aの分圧比kをk=R2/(R1+R2)、帰還増幅率KをK=R4/R3とすると、電流信号増幅手段51aの出力電圧vauは式1で表される。   The capacitor 500a is connected in parallel with the shunt resistor 50a, the first input resistor 501a and the second input resistor 502a are connected in series with the shunt resistor 50a, and the second input is connected to the DC power supply terminal 55 of the current signal amplifying means 51a. The input resistor 502a is pulled up. The connection point of the first input resistor 501a (resistance value R2) and the second input resistor 502a (resistance value R1) is connected to the non-inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier 503a, and between the output terminal and the inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier 503a. Is connected to a feedback resistor 504a (resistance value R4), and a resistor 505a (resistance value R3) is connected between the inverting input terminal and the ground potential to constitute a non-inverting amplifier. Assuming that the resistance value of the shunt resistor 50a is Ro, the voltage veu of the shunt resistor 50a is the product of the resistance value Ro and the current Iu (veu = Ro × Iu), which is the difference between the first input resistor 501a and the second input resistor 502a. Assuming that the pressure ratio k is k = R2 / (R1 + R2) and the feedback amplification factor K is K = R4 / R3, the output voltage vau of the current signal amplifying means 51a is expressed by Equation 1.

ここで、分圧比kと帰還増幅率Kの積、すなわち、k×K=0.5となるようにすれば、A/D変換器の直流電源電圧Vccの1/2を中心にして電流Iuに対応した電圧信号に変換される。   Here, if the product of the voltage division ratio k and the feedback amplification factor K, that is, k × K = 0.5, the current Iu is centered on 1/2 of the DC power supply voltage Vcc of the A / D converter. Is converted to a voltage signal corresponding to.

例えば、分圧比k=0.1、帰還増幅率K=5、シャント抵抗値Ro=0.2Ω、直流電源端子に加える電圧Vcc=5Vとすると、電流信号増幅手段51aの出力電圧はvau=0.9×Iu+2.5で表される。すなわち、A/D変換器のDC電圧が5Vの場合、センター値2.5Vが0Aに相当し、ダイナミックレンジは±2.5Vに対してほぼ±2.5Aまでの電流を検出することができる。   For example, when the voltage dividing ratio k = 0.1, the feedback amplification factor K = 5, the shunt resistance value Ro = 0.2Ω, and the voltage Vcc = 5V applied to the DC power supply terminal, the output voltage of the current signal amplifying means 51a is vau = 0. .9 × Iu + 2.5. That is, when the DC voltage of the A / D converter is 5 V, the center value 2.5 V corresponds to 0 A, and the dynamic range can detect a current up to about ± 2.5 A with respect to ± 2.5 V. .

抵抗506aとダイオード507a、508aはA/D変換回路の過電圧保護のために接続している。   The resistor 506a and the diodes 507a and 508a are connected for overvoltage protection of the A / D conversion circuit.

図4は、本発明による電流信号増幅手段の他の実施例を示す回路図であり、反転増幅器により電流信号を増幅して電圧レベル変換するもので、U相電流信号増幅手段51a1の部分のみ示している。   FIG. 4 is a circuit diagram showing another embodiment of the current signal amplifying means according to the present invention, in which the current signal is amplified by an inverting amplifier to convert the voltage level, and only the portion of the U-phase current signal amplifying means 51a1 is shown. ing.

回路接続は、図3に示す実施例から一部変更したもので、第1の入力抵抗501aはシャント抵抗50aに接続し、第2の入力抵抗502aを負電源Veにプルダウン接続し、演算増幅器503aを反転増幅器として使用したものである。図3に示す接地抵抗505aは省略できる。この時、帰還増幅率Kは帰還抵抗504a(R4)を第1の入力抵抗501a(R2)で除したもので、シャント抵抗電圧降下veuと出力電圧vauの関係式は式2で表される。   The circuit connection is a part of the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, in which the first input resistor 501a is connected to the shunt resistor 50a, the second input resistor 502a is connected to the negative power source Ve, and the operational amplifier 503a is connected. Is used as an inverting amplifier. The grounding resistor 505a shown in FIG. 3 can be omitted. At this time, the feedback amplification factor K is obtained by dividing the feedback resistor 504a (R4) by the first input resistor 501a (R2), and the relational expression between the shunt resistance voltage drop veu and the output voltage vau is expressed by Equation 2.

ここで、帰還抵抗504aと第2の入力抵抗502aの比を、R4/R1=0.5に設定し、負電源VeのDC電圧絶対値をA/D変換器の電源電圧(ダイナミックレンジ)と等しくすると、A/D変換器の直流電源電圧Vccのセンター値に対して上下に変化するようにシャント抵抗電圧が増幅されてレベル変換される。例えば、Ve=−5V、R4=10kΩ、R1=20kΩ、R2=2kΩとすると、出力信号vauは、vau=2.5−5×veuで表される。シャント抵抗抵抗値を0.2Ω、電流をIuとすれば、vau=2.5−Iuとなる。   Here, the ratio of the feedback resistor 504a and the second input resistor 502a is set to R4 / R1 = 0.5, and the DC voltage absolute value of the negative power supply Ve is set to the power supply voltage (dynamic range) of the A / D converter. If equal, the shunt resistance voltage is amplified and level-converted so as to change up and down with respect to the center value of the DC power supply voltage Vcc of the A / D converter. For example, when Ve = −5V, R4 = 10 kΩ, R1 = 20 kΩ, and R2 = 2 kΩ, the output signal vau is expressed by vau = 2.5−5 × veu. When the shunt resistance resistance value is 0.2Ω and the current is Iu, vau = 2.5−Iu.

図3に説明した非反転増幅器を使用した電流信号増幅手段51aは、前述したように、プルアップ接続する直流電源電圧とA/D変換器の直流電源電圧(Vcc)と等しくし、第1の入力抵抗とプルアップ接続する第2の入力抵抗の分圧比kと帰還増幅率Kの積(k×K)をほぼ0.5となるようにすれば、A/D変換回路の直流電源電圧(Vcc)のセンター値にレベル変換できる。   As described above, the current signal amplifying means 51a using the non-inverting amplifier described in FIG. 3 is equal to the DC power supply voltage to be pulled up and the DC power supply voltage (Vcc) of the A / D converter. If the product (k × K) of the voltage dividing ratio k and the feedback amplification factor K of the second input resistor connected to the input resistor in a pull-up connection is approximately 0.5, the DC power supply voltage (A / D converter circuit) The level can be converted to the center value of Vcc).

図4に説明した反転増幅器を使用した電流信号増幅手段51a1は、負電源電圧絶対値をA/D変換器のDC電圧と等しくし、帰還抵抗と負電源(Ve)へプルダウン接続する抵抗の比をほぼ0.5に設定すればよい。   The current signal amplifying means 51a1 using the inverting amplifier described in FIG. 4 makes the negative power supply voltage absolute value equal to the DC voltage of the A / D converter, and the ratio of the feedback resistance and the resistance pull-down connected to the negative power supply (Ve). Should be set to approximately 0.5.

以上述べたように、本発明の電流検出手段は少ない部品点数と単電源の演算増幅器により電流検出が容易、かつ安価に行うことができる。また、演算増幅器によりシャント抵抗の電流信号を増幅するので低抵抗のシャント抵抗でも電流検出可能となり、シャント抵抗の損失を減らすことができ、シャント抵抗を小型化にして電流検出モジュールを小型化することができる。また、シャント抵抗と演算増幅器の配線を短くすることができるので、配線による電流検出誤差をほとんど無くすことができる。さらに、電流信号増幅手段がバッファとなって高速スイッチングノイズはA/D変換器に直接入力されないのでA/D変換器が誤動作したりラッチアップする恐れがない。また、図3に示した非反転増幅器によると、単一電源で動作するので直流電源を簡素化することができる。   As described above, the current detection means of the present invention can be easily and inexpensively detected by a small number of components and a single power supply operational amplifier. In addition, since the current signal of the shunt resistor is amplified by the operational amplifier, the current can be detected even with a low-resistance shunt resistor, the loss of the shunt resistor can be reduced, and the current detection module can be downsized by reducing the shunt resistor. Can do. Further, since the wiring of the shunt resistor and the operational amplifier can be shortened, almost no current detection error due to the wiring can be eliminated. Furthermore, since the current signal amplifying means serves as a buffer, high-speed switching noise is not directly input to the A / D converter, so that there is no possibility that the A / D converter malfunctions or latches up. In addition, the non-inverting amplifier shown in FIG. 3 operates with a single power source, so that the DC power source can be simplified.

(実施の形態2)
以下、本発明の第2の実施の形態について図5を用いて説明する。図5は、本発明の第2の実施の形態におけるモータ駆動装置のブロック図を示すもので、電流検出手段5Aに過電流検知手段56を追加してシャント抵抗50に流れる電流を検出することにより、インバータ回路3Aあるいはモータ4の電流の検出と過電流の検知を行い、電流信号をレベルシフトし、かつ、過電流信号Foを出力するものである。他の構成は上記実施の形態1と同様であり、詳細な説明は省略する。
(Embodiment 2)
The second embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIG. FIG. 5 is a block diagram of a motor drive device according to the second embodiment of the present invention. By adding an overcurrent detection means 56 to the current detection means 5A, the current flowing through the shunt resistor 50 is detected. The current of the inverter circuit 3A or the motor 4 is detected and the overcurrent is detected, the current signal is level-shifted, and the overcurrent signal Fo is output. Other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment, and detailed description thereof is omitted.

電流検出手段5Aは、上記実施の形態1における図1で説明したシャント抵抗50、電流信号増幅手段51および各種端子に追加して、過電流検知手段56と、過電流出力信号端子57および過電流設定端子58を設け、制御手段6Aにより過電流設定値に対応した信号Vrefを過電流設定端子58に印加し、過電流設定値以上の電流がシャント抵抗に流れると、過電流検知手段56が過電流を検知して過電流出力信号端子57より過電流信号Foが制御手段6Aの異常信号割り込み端子IRQに加えられ、制御手段6Aは異常割り込み信号によりインバータ回路3Aの制御信号GCをオフする。   The current detection means 5A is added to the shunt resistor 50, the current signal amplification means 51 and various terminals described in FIG. 1 in the first embodiment, and an overcurrent detection means 56, an overcurrent output signal terminal 57, and an overcurrent. A setting terminal 58 is provided, and when the signal Vref corresponding to the overcurrent setting value is applied to the overcurrent setting terminal 58 by the control means 6A and a current exceeding the overcurrent setting value flows to the shunt resistor, the overcurrent detection means 56 The overcurrent signal Fo is applied from the overcurrent output signal terminal 57 to the abnormal signal interrupt terminal IRQ of the control means 6A, and the control means 6A turns off the control signal GC of the inverter circuit 3A by the abnormal interrupt signal.

また、過電流信号Foは、図2で説明したと同様のインバータ回路3Aの遮断信号端子Ofにも加えられ、瞬時にインバータ回路3Aの出力を停止させるので、インバータ回路3Aの遮断機能と制御手段6Aの異常割り込み信号による遮断機能よりなる2重の保護機能により過電流から保護される。モータ4の過負荷による過電流、あるいは、脱調による過電流に対しては、制御手段6Aの異常割り込み信号からの遮断応答速度で問題ないが、インバータ回路3Aの上下アーム短絡の場合には数マイクロ秒以内の遮断応答速度が必要であり、過電流信号Foにより直接インバータ回路3Aを遮断させる。   Further, the overcurrent signal Fo is also applied to the cutoff signal terminal Of of the inverter circuit 3A similar to that explained in FIG. 2, and the output of the inverter circuit 3A is instantaneously stopped. Therefore, the cutoff function and control means of the inverter circuit 3A It is protected from overcurrent by a double protection function consisting of a cutoff function by a 6A abnormal interrupt signal. For the overcurrent caused by the overload of the motor 4 or the overcurrent caused by the step-out, there is no problem with the interruption response speed from the abnormal interrupt signal of the control means 6A, but in the case of the short circuit of the upper and lower arms of the inverter circuit 3A An interruption response speed within microseconds is required, and the inverter circuit 3A is directly interrupted by the overcurrent signal Fo.

図6は、本発明の第2の実施の形態における電流検出手段5Aの詳細な回路図である。電流信号増幅手段51aは、実施の形態1において図3にて説明したものと同様であるので説明は省略する。過電流検知手段56は、シャント抵抗50の端子電圧を検出することにより過電流を検知するもので、シャント抵抗50a、50b、50cそれぞれの電流を電圧比較器より構成される過電流検知手段56a、56b、56cにより検出し、過電流検知手段56a、56b、56cそれぞれの出力端子をオア接続し、いずれかの過電流信号が過電流出力信号端子57に出力される。   FIG. 6 is a detailed circuit diagram of the current detection means 5A in the second embodiment of the present invention. The current signal amplifying means 51a is the same as that described in the first embodiment with reference to FIG. The overcurrent detection means 56 detects an overcurrent by detecting the terminal voltage of the shunt resistor 50. The overcurrent detection means 56a, each of which includes a current of each of the shunt resistors 50a, 50b, 50c, is constituted by a voltage comparator. Detected by 56b and 56c, the respective output terminals of the overcurrent detection means 56a, 56b and 56c are OR-connected, and one of the overcurrent signals is output to the overcurrent output signal terminal 57.

過電流検知手段56aは、電圧比較器560aの反転入力端子に、シャント抵抗50aに接続された抵抗561aとコンデンサ562aよりなる積分回路を介して電圧信号veuを加え、電圧比較器560aの非反転入力端子に加えられた設定電圧信号Vrefと比較し、電圧信号veuが設定電圧信号Vrefよりも高くなると出力端子電圧はLoに低下する。電圧比較器560aの出力段は、通常オープンコレクタトランジスタより構成されており、出力抵抗563aはプルアップ接続されて容易に論理OR回路を構成できる。過電流検知手段56b、56cも同様の接続であり、出力端子を直接接続してオア回路が構成できる。また、それぞれの非反転入力端子には設定電圧信号Vrefが加えられるので、シャント抵抗50a、50b、50cのいずれか電圧が設定電圧信号Vref以上となると過電流出力信号端子57にアクティブLoの過電流信号Foが出力される。   The overcurrent detection means 56a adds a voltage signal veu to the inverting input terminal of the voltage comparator 560a via an integrating circuit composed of a resistor 561a connected to the shunt resistor 50a and a capacitor 562a, and the non-inverting input of the voltage comparator 560a. When the voltage signal veu becomes higher than the set voltage signal Vref as compared with the set voltage signal Vref applied to the terminal, the output terminal voltage decreases to Lo. The output stage of the voltage comparator 560a is normally composed of an open collector transistor, and the output resistor 563a can be easily pulled up to form a logical OR circuit. The overcurrent detection means 56b and 56c are similarly connected, and an OR circuit can be configured by directly connecting the output terminals. Further, since the set voltage signal Vref is applied to each non-inverting input terminal, when any one of the shunt resistors 50a, 50b, and 50c becomes equal to or higher than the set voltage signal Vref, the overcurrent of the active Lo is applied to the overcurrent output signal terminal 57. The signal Fo is output.

以上述べたように、電流検出手段5Aは、複数のシャント抵抗と、複数の電流信号増幅のための演算増幅器と、複数の過電流検知のための電圧比較器を一体化した電流検出モジュールを構成することにより、シャント抵抗と演算増幅器間の配線、および、シャント抵抗と電圧比較器間の配線が短くなりパターン配線インピーダンスを減らすだけではなく、配線パターンに誘起するノイズも減らすことができるので、ノイズによる誤動作を減らし、正確な電流検出、および過電流検知が可能となる。   As described above, the current detection means 5A constitutes a current detection module in which a plurality of shunt resistors, a plurality of operational amplifiers for current signal amplification, and a plurality of voltage comparators for overcurrent detection are integrated. As a result, the wiring between the shunt resistor and the operational amplifier and the wiring between the shunt resistor and the voltage comparator are shortened to reduce not only the pattern wiring impedance but also the noise induced in the wiring pattern. This makes it possible to reduce malfunctions caused by the above and to accurately detect current and overcurrent.

図7は、本発明における電流検出モジュールの外装コートを除いた外形図で、モジュール基板5aに、シャント抵抗50a、50b、50c、電流信号増幅手段51を構成し1パッケージに演算増幅器503a等の複数の回路を内蔵する演算増幅器モジュール503A、過電流検知手段56を構成し1パッケージに電圧比較器560a等の複数の回路を内蔵する電圧比較器モジュール560A、およびその他抵抗、コンデンサ等を実装し、電流入力端子52a、52b、52cと共通端子53、出力端子54a、54b、54c、直流電源端子55、過電流信号出力端子57、および、過電流設定端子58を設ける。   FIG. 7 is an external view of the current detection module according to the present invention excluding the outer coat. The shunt resistors 50a, 50b, and 50c and the current signal amplifying means 51 are configured on the module substrate 5a, and a plurality of operational amplifiers 503a and the like are included in one package. The operational amplifier module 503A incorporating the above circuit, the overcurrent detection means 56, the voltage comparator module 560A incorporating a plurality of circuits such as the voltage comparator 560a in one package, and other resistors, capacitors, etc., are mounted. Input terminals 52a, 52b, and 52c, a common terminal 53, output terminals 54a, 54b, and 54c, a DC power supply terminal 55, an overcurrent signal output terminal 57, and an overcurrent setting terminal 58 are provided.

シャント抵抗50a、50b、50cを、印刷抵抗などの金属板抵抗以外の薄膜抵抗で構成すると低価格の電流検出手段が構成できるが、過電流が流れて燃焼する恐れがある。しかし、難燃性樹脂等で外装コートしたり、あるいは、不燃性の板で印刷抵抗をカバーすることにより薄膜抵抗が燃える恐れを無くすことができる。   If the shunt resistors 50a, 50b, and 50c are formed of thin film resistors other than metal plate resistors such as printing resistors, a low-cost current detecting means can be formed, but there is a risk that overcurrent flows and burns. However, the possibility of burning the thin film resistor can be eliminated by coating the exterior with a flame-retardant resin or by covering the printing resistance with a non-flammable plate.

電流入力端子52a、52b、52cと共通端子53はできるだけ近づけ、かつ、共通端子53を演算増幅器モジュール503A、電圧比較器モジュール560Aに近づけると配線を短くして誤動作を防ぎ、電流検出精度を向上させることができる。また、図7に示したように、縦方向に実装するように電流検出モジュールを構成することにより、実装密度を高くでき、インバータ回路とその制御基板面積を小型化できる。   When the current input terminals 52a, 52b, and 52c are as close as possible to the common terminal 53 and the common terminal 53 is close to the operational amplifier module 503A and the voltage comparator module 560A, the wiring is shortened to prevent malfunction and improve current detection accuracy. be able to. Further, as shown in FIG. 7, by configuring the current detection module so as to be mounted in the vertical direction, the mounting density can be increased, and the area of the inverter circuit and its control board can be reduced.

以上述べたように、本発明は、シャント抵抗と電流信号増幅手段と過電流検知手段により電流検出手段を一体構成して電流検出モジュールとしたものであり、配線インピーダンスを減らすことができるので高精度の電流検出が可能となり、部品実装密度の向上により制御基板を小型化でき、低価格、高信頼性のモータ駆動装置を実現できる。   As described above, the present invention is a current detection module in which the current detection means is integrally configured by the shunt resistor, the current signal amplification means, and the overcurrent detection means, and the wiring impedance can be reduced. Current can be detected, and the control board can be miniaturized by improving the component mounting density, and a low-cost and highly reliable motor drive device can be realized.

以上のように、本発明のモータ駆動装置は、直流電力をインバータ回路により交流電力に変換して、モータをインバータ回路により駆動し、インバータ回路の出力電流をシャント抵抗と電流信号増幅手段よりなる電流検出手段により検出し、電流検出手段の信号によりインバータ回路をPWM制御してモータを駆動し、シャント抵抗と電流信号増幅手段を一体化して電流検出モジュールにしたものであり、配線インピーダンスを減らして高精度の電流検出が可能となり、演算増幅器によりシャント抵抗を小型化できるだけではなく、A/D変換器の誤動作やラッチアップを防ぎ、小型、高精度、高信頼性の電流検出手段を構成できるから、ベクトル制御、あるいは、センサレス制御するほとんどのモータ駆動装置に応用することができ、ファンモータ駆動装置、ポンプモータ駆動装置、洗濯機のモータ駆動装置、空気調和機や冷蔵庫のヒートポンプモータ駆動装置等に適用できる。   As described above, the motor drive device of the present invention converts DC power into AC power by the inverter circuit, drives the motor by the inverter circuit, and outputs the output current of the inverter circuit to the current composed of the shunt resistor and the current signal amplification means. It is detected by the detection means, and the inverter circuit is PWM controlled by the signal of the current detection means to drive the motor, and the shunt resistor and the current signal amplification means are integrated into a current detection module. Since accurate current detection is possible, not only can the shunt resistor be downsized by the operational amplifier, but also malfunction of the A / D converter and latch-up can be prevented, and a compact, high-accuracy and highly reliable current detection means can be configured. It can be applied to most motor drive devices that perform vector control or sensorless control. Motor driving device, a pump motor driving device, a washing machine motor driving device can be applied to an air conditioner or a refrigerator heat pump motor driving device.
