Description

The short circuit cut-off method of the insulated gate bipolar triode (IGBT) of high-power converter
Technical field:
The present invention relates to a kind of guard method of novel high-power converter, can be applied to comprise wind electric converter, any high-power converter such as propelling current transformer peculiar to vessel is used.This method is applied to insulated gate bipolar triode (IGBT) gate drive circuit of current transformer.Turn-offing as far as possible fast when the present invention has realized insulated gate bipolar triode (IGBT) short circuit also can protect IGBT can not damaged by excessive voltage overshoot simultaneously.
Background technology:
High-power converter has wide application background, and become one of nucleus equipment in a plurality of industries, because insulated gate bipolar triode (IGBT) has the advantages that the electric current and voltage range of application is big and switching speed is fast, is the core switching device in the present main flow high-power converter.
Insulated gate bipolar triode (IGBT) belongs to the power electronic device of full-control type, and the turn-on and turn-off of IGBT are all controlled by gate voltage.Insulated gate bipolar triode (IGBT) is by proprietary gate drive circuit control., as shown in Figure 1, in the IGBT turn on process, gate drive circuit charges to promote gate pole-emitter voltage to gate pole-emitter capacity Cge (1) rapidly.When gate pole-emitter voltage surpasses the conduction threshold of IGBT, the IGBT conducting.In the IGBT turn off process, gate drive circuit discharges gate pole-emitter capacity Cge (1) to reduce gate pole-emitter voltage rapidly.When gate pole-emitter voltage was lower than the conduction threshold of IGBT, IGBT turn-offed.The realization of gate drive circuit adds gate electrode resistance by gate drive pulse voltage and forms.Gate drive pulse voltage possesses generating positive and negative voltage output, has the current driving ability to gate pole-emitter capacity Cge (1) impulse electricity.Gate-drive resistance is responsible for controlling the impulse electricity size of current of Cge, and the impulse electricity electric current of Cge has determined the change speed of gate voltage, thereby has played the switching speed of control IGBT.Whole switching process is by shown in Figure 2.
By shown in Figure 2, in insulated gate bipolar triode (IGBT) turn off process, because the derivation electric capacity of IGBT, in electric current reduction process rapidly, the voltage of collector electrode-emitter will produce overshoot voltage.If overshoot voltage has exceeded the safe range of IGBT, will cause the damage of IGBT device overvoltage.Therefore, when the design driven circuit, need to adjust gate pole and close resistance break, guarantee to turn-off overshoot voltage in the safe range of IGBT to slow down the turn-off speed of IGBT.
In normal working range, in order to improve the reliability of current transformer, insulated gate bipolar triode (IGBT) must possess the ability that short circuit is turn-offed.Short circuit is turn-offed needs to satisfy two conditions; The firstth, the short circuit device must turn-off in the extremely short time, otherwise device can be damaged because of the thermal effect of short circuit current, the short circuit turn-off time of the employed device of MW class current transformer requires about 10us at present, and turn-off speed is fast more, and the probability that device is survived under short-circuit conditions is just high more.The secondth, the short circuit device must not produce too high overshoot voltage when turn-offing, if turn-off speed is too fast, certainly will cause overshoot voltage excessive, can damage IGBT equally.
Turn-off second condition in order to satisfy short circuit, patent US6335608 has proposed soft shutoff technology, and this technology is in the field of business at present to be widely used.Specific implementation as shown in Figure 3, soft shutoff technology has increased a soft pass resistance break (3) on the basis of Fig. 1, under the normal switch condition, soft pass resistance break is by a switching tube in parallel with it (4) bypass, switching speed is determined by gate electrode resistance (2).Detect at gate drive circuit (short circuit condition is measured comparison module (5) by collector electrode-transmitter voltage and finished) under the condition of short circuit, the by-pass switch pipe turn-offs, drive circuit enters soft off state, and switching speed is by gate electrode resistance (2) and the common decision of soft pass resistance break (3).
Though the soft breaking circuit that patent US6335608 provides has successfully solved the problem of the voltage overshoot when short circuit is turn-offed.Yet, as shown in Figure 4,, caused the increase of turn off delay time (8) owing to increased soft pass resistance break.Prolong the short circuit turn-off time of device, very easily cause device short circuit survival rate to reduce, influence the reliability of current transformer.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is: provided a kind of novel short circuit cut-off method, this cut-off method has improved the by-pass switch control method of traditional soft breaking circuit, can solve the excessive defective of soft breaking circuit switch time-delay, and keep soft shutoff technology to reduce the advantage of overshoot voltage simultaneously.For achieving the above object, design of the present invention is:
As shown in Figure 5, moment of playing a role of soft shutoff technology is t 1To t 2Stage.At t 0To t 1In the stage, because this moment, discharge process was not finished as yet, gate voltage does not drop to the shutoff threshold value of IGBT as yet, and therefore the velocity of discharge of the voltage of this moment does not influence turn off process, can not influence overshoot voltage yet.Therefore, design of the present invention is at t 0To t 1Stage reduces to close resistance break, only uses the gate electrode resistance repid discharge, reduces the delay time of switch as far as possible, and at t 1To t 2Stage is cut soft pass resistance break, slows down t 1To t 2Discharge process to reduce shutoff voltage overshoot.Therefore the present invention can reduce the delay time of switch when keeping soft shutoff technological merit.When the current transformer short circuit, turn-off the IGBT of short circuit as far as possible apace, to reach the effect of protection current transformer.
According to above-mentioned inventive concept, technical scheme of the present invention is as follows:
It is similar to soft breaking circuit that gate voltage of the present invention detects decision circuitry, therefore needn't do large-scale change on the basis of traditional gate drive circuit.As Fig. 3 and shown in Figure 5, the present invention has improved the turn-off time of soft shutoff by-pass switch on the basis of soft breaking circuit, the by-pass switch of soft pass of the present invention resistance break, and turn-off simultaneously unlike detecting short circuit current in system in the common soft shutoff scheme.The present invention has increased gate voltage and has detected decision circuitry, and when the gate-drive logical circuit detected the short circuit generation, the present invention at first used the gate electrode resistance repid discharge, detects the size of decision circuitry detecting gate pole tension simultaneously with gate voltage.When gate voltage when turn-offing threshold value, logical circuit sends signal and turn-offs by-pass switch, this moment, soft pass resistance break was connected with the velocity of discharge of the gate voltage that slows down with gate electrode resistance, thereby the overshoot voltage that slows down switching process and produced when reducing the IGBT shutoff.
The present invention compares in prior art, has following conspicuous outstanding substantive distinguishing features and remarkable advantage:
● when suppressing overshoot voltage, reduce the turn-off time of IGBT, increased the survival rate of IGBT in short circuit constantly.
● do not need significantly to change drive circuit, do not increase the complexity of circuit.
