Description

本発明は、電圧駆動型半導体素子のゲート回路に関する。   The present invention relates to a gate circuit of a voltage driven semiconductor element.

一般に、電圧駆動型半導体素子であるIGBT(insulated gate bipolar transistor)をスイッチングさせて、電力を変換する電力変換装置が知られている。このような電力変換装置において、IGBTの導通時に、オフされている反対アームのIGBT(導通しているIGBTと直列に接続されたIGBT)が短絡破壊をすると、過大な短絡電流が流れる。この短絡電流は、IGBT定格電流の10倍以上に達することがある。このような短絡電流が流れると、IGBTは破損する。   2. Description of the Related Art Generally, a power conversion device that converts power by switching an IGBT (insulated gate bipolar transistor) that is a voltage-driven semiconductor element is known. In such a power conversion device, when the IGBT of the opposite arm that is turned off (the IGBT connected in series with the conducting IGBT) is short-circuited and broken, an excessive short-circuit current flows. This short circuit current may reach 10 times or more of the IGBT rated current. When such a short-circuit current flows, the IGBT is damaged.

そこで、このような短絡電流に対する保護について、様々な検討がされている(例えば、非特許文献1参照)。また、このような保護をするための方式の1つに、IGBTのエミッタ側に、インダクタンスを含むように回路を構成することが提案されている(非特許文献2参照)。
Romeo Letor、外1名,“Short Circuit Behavior of IGBT’s Correlated to the Intrinsic Device Structure and on the Application Circuit”, IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON INDUSTRY APPLICATIONS, IEEE,1995年3月/4月,Vol.31,No.2,p.234−239 笹川清明、外2名,“ゲート波形制御によるIGBT短絡保護方式の検討”,電気学会D部門論文誌,社団法人電気学会,2007年,第127巻,第5号,p.478−484
Therefore, various studies have been made on protection against such a short-circuit current (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 1). Further, as one of the methods for such protection, it has been proposed to configure a circuit so as to include an inductance on the emitter side of the IGBT (see Non-Patent Document 2).

しかしながら、先行技術文献に記載の電力変換装置では、通常のIGBTのスイッチングでも、インダクタンスにより、IGBTの素子電流のdi/dtを低減するようにゲートに負帰還が掛かる。このため、例えば、IGBTのオン時に反対アームのダイオードに流れるリカバリー電流も抑制される。従って、IGBTのゲート電圧は、大幅に増加する。これにより、スイッチング損失が増大する。   However, in the power conversion device described in the prior art document, even in normal IGBT switching, negative feedback is applied to the gate so as to reduce di / dt of the IGBT element current due to inductance. For this reason, for example, the recovery current flowing in the diode of the opposite arm when the IGBT is turned on is also suppressed. Therefore, the gate voltage of the IGBT is greatly increased. This increases the switching loss.

そこで、本発明の目的は、電圧駆動型半導体素子に流れる短絡電流を抑制し、電圧駆動型半導体素子のスイッチング損失を低減することのできる電圧駆動型半導体素子のゲート回路を提供することにある。   Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a gate circuit for a voltage-driven semiconductor element that can suppress a short-circuit current flowing in the voltage-driven semiconductor element and reduce a switching loss of the voltage-driven semiconductor element.

本発明によれば、電圧駆動型半導体素子に流れる短絡電流を抑制し、電圧駆動型半導体素子のスイッチング損失を低減することのできる電圧駆動型半導体素子のゲート回路を提供することができる。   ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, the short circuit current which flows into a voltage drive type semiconductor element can be suppressed, and the gate circuit of the voltage drive type semiconductor element which can reduce the switching loss of a voltage drive type semiconductor element can be provided.

(Embodiment)
FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram showing a configuration of a power conversion circuit 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a waveform diagram showing waveforms of the gate pulse GP and the switching signal SK generated by the gate circuit 1 according to the present embodiment. In the following drawings, the same portions are denoted by the same reference numerals, detailed description thereof is omitted, and different portions are mainly described. In the following embodiments, the same description is omitted.

電力変換回路10は、ゲート回路1と、IGBT2と、ダイオード3と、コイル4とを備えている。   The power conversion circuit 10 includes a gate circuit 1, an IGBT 2, a diode 3, and a coil 4.

ゲート回路1は、IGBT2をスイッチングするためのゲート電圧を出力する回路である。   The gate circuit 1 is a circuit that outputs a gate voltage for switching the IGBT 2.

IGBT2は、電圧駆動型半導体素子である。電力変換回路10は、IGBT2をスイッチングすることにより、直流電力を交流電力に変換する。   The IGBT 2 is a voltage driven semiconductor element. The power conversion circuit 10 converts DC power into AC power by switching the IGBT 2.

ダイオード3は、IGBT2に逆並列に接続されている。   The diode 3 is connected in antiparallel to the IGBT 2.

コイル4は、IGBT2が短絡破壊したときに流れる短絡電流を抑制するための素子である。コイル4は、インダクタンスを有するインダクタである。   The coil 4 is an element for suppressing a short-circuit current that flows when the IGBT 2 is short-circuit broken. The coil 4 is an inductor having an inductance.

次に、ゲート回路1の詳細な構成について説明する。   Next, a detailed configuration of the gate circuit 1 will be described.

ゲート回路1は、ゲートパルス生成部11と、オンディレイ12と、切替器13とを備えている。   The gate circuit 1 includes a gate pulse generation unit 11, an on delay 12, and a switch 13.

ゲートパルス生成部11は、IGBT2のオン又はオフをするための指令となるゲートパルスGPを生成する。ゲート回路1は、ゲートパルス生成部11により生成されたゲートパルスGPに従って、IGBT2にゲート電圧を印加する。ゲートパルスGPの波形は、IGBT2のゲート−エミッタ間に印加されるゲート電圧の波形を示している。   The gate pulse generator 11 generates a gate pulse GP that is a command for turning on or off the IGBT 2. The gate circuit 1 applies a gate voltage to the IGBT 2 in accordance with the gate pulse GP generated by the gate pulse generator 11. The waveform of the gate pulse GP indicates the waveform of the gate voltage applied between the gate and the emitter of the IGBT 2.

オンディレイ12は、ゲートパルス生成部11から出力されたゲートパルスGPが入力され、切替器13を切り替えるための切替信号SKを出力する。オンディレイ12は、入力された波形に対して、オンする時間(立ち上がり時間)を所定時間遅らせた波形を出力する。   The on-delay 12 receives the gate pulse GP output from the gate pulse generator 11 and outputs a switching signal SK for switching the switch 13. The on-delay 12 outputs a waveform obtained by delaying a turn-on time (rise time) by a predetermined time with respect to the input waveform.

切替器13は、オンディレイ12から出力された切替信号SKに従って、接点PAと接点PBとの切替を行う。接点PAが選択されている場合、ゲート回路1がIGBT2にゲート電圧を印加する回路に、コイル4が含まれる。接点PBが選択されている場合、ゲート回路1がIGBT2にゲート電圧を印加する回路に、コイル4が含まれない。   The switch 13 switches between the contact PA and the contact PB in accordance with the switching signal SK output from the on delay 12. When the contact PA is selected, the coil 4 is included in a circuit in which the gate circuit 1 applies a gate voltage to the IGBT 2. When the contact PB is selected, the coil 4 is not included in the circuit in which the gate circuit 1 applies the gate voltage to the IGBT 2.

次に、電力変換回路10の動作について説明する。   Next, the operation of the power conversion circuit 10 will be described.

ゲート回路1は、ゲートパルスGPがONを示す場合、ゲート−エミッタ間に印加するゲート電圧を閾値電圧以上にして、IGBT2をオンにする。ゲート回路1は、ゲートパルスGPがOFFを示す場合、ゲート−エミッタ間に印加するゲート電圧を閾値電圧以下にして、IGBT2をオフにする。   When the gate pulse GP indicates ON, the gate circuit 1 turns on the IGBT 2 by setting the gate voltage applied between the gate and the emitter to a threshold voltage or higher. When the gate pulse GP indicates OFF, the gate circuit 1 turns off the IGBT 2 by setting the gate voltage applied between the gate and the emitter to a threshold voltage or less.

ゲート回路1は、IGBT2の駆動を開始する前は、切替器13を接点PAに選択している。ゲート回路1は、切替信号SKがPAを示す場合、切替器13を接点PAに切り替える。ゲート回路1は、切替信号SKがPBを示す場合、切替器13を接点PBに切り替える。   The gate circuit 1 selects the switch 13 as the contact PA before starting to drive the IGBT 2. When the switching signal SK indicates PA, the gate circuit 1 switches the switch 13 to the contact PA. When the switching signal SK indicates PB, the gate circuit 1 switches the switch 13 to the contact PB.

オンディレイ12は、図2に示すように、ゲートパルス生成部11からゲートパルスGPが入力されると、立ち上がりを時刻t1から時刻t2に遅らせた波形を切替信号SKとして出力する。時刻t1と時刻t2との間の時間は、オンディレイ12に予め設定されている時間である。この設定されている時間は、IGBT2のターンオンする時間に略等しいか、又は少し遅く設定されている。   As shown in FIG. 2, when the gate pulse GP is input from the gate pulse generator 11, the on-delay 12 outputs a waveform whose rising edge is delayed from time t1 to time t2 as the switching signal SK. The time between the time t1 and the time t2 is a time preset in the on-delay 12. This set time is set to be approximately equal to or slightly later than the turn-on time of the IGBT 2.

上述の構成により、ゲート回路1は、IGBT2をオフからターンオンするまでの間は、コイル4を含まないゲート−エミッタ間にゲート電圧を印加する。ゲート回路1は、IGBT2をオンしている間は、コイル4を含むゲート−エミッタ間にゲート電圧を印加する。   With the above-described configuration, the gate circuit 1 applies a gate voltage between the gate and the emitter not including the coil 4 until the IGBT 2 is turned on from off. The gate circuit 1 applies a gate voltage between the gate and the emitter including the coil 4 while the IGBT 2 is turned on.

本実施形態によれば、以下の作用効果を得ることができる。   According to this embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.

ゲート回路1は、IGBT2をオフからターンオンするまでの間は、インダクタンスを含まない回路にゲート電圧を印加する。ゲート回路1は、IGBT2をオンしている間は、インダクタンスを含む回路にゲート電圧を印加する。   The gate circuit 1 applies a gate voltage to a circuit that does not include an inductance until the IGBT 2 is turned from OFF to ON. The gate circuit 1 applies a gate voltage to the circuit including the inductance while the IGBT 2 is turned on.

これにより、電力変換回路10は、通常時のIGBT2のスイッチング損失を増大させることなく、IGBT2の導通時に反対アームのIGBTが短絡破壊することにより発生する過大な短絡電流を抑制することができる。   As a result, the power conversion circuit 10 can suppress an excessive short-circuit current that occurs due to a short-circuit breakdown of the IGBT of the opposite arm when the IGBT 2 is turned on, without increasing the switching loss of the IGBT 2 at the normal time.

ここで、IGBT2をオフからターンオンするまでの間に発生した短絡電流は抑制されない。しかし、この間に発生する短絡電流は、IGBT2の導通時に発生する短絡電流より深刻でない(非特許文献1参照)。従って、電力変換回路10は、短絡保護としての機能に影響はほとんどない。   Here, the short-circuit current generated during the period from when the IGBT 2 is turned off to when it is turned on is not suppressed. However, the short-circuit current generated during this period is less serious than the short-circuit current generated when the IGBT 2 is conducting (see Non-Patent Document 1). Therefore, the power conversion circuit 10 has almost no influence on the function as short circuit protection.
