In addition, the above is an ideal scheme proposed by the scheme, and the temperatures of the six-way IGBTs are not balanced in actual engineering practice, so a supplementary case applied to the actual engineering practice is proposed based on the scheme. In the actual operation process of the motor controller, a thermal imager is used for respectively measuring U, V, W three-phase upper and lower bridge arm six-way IGBT actual temperature rise data, and the following engineering practical experience is obtained by combining a water channel heat dissipation design: the temperature of the U-phase lower bridge arm or the W-phase lower bridge arm positioned at the water inlet and the water outlet is 5-8 ℃ higher than that of the other four bridge arms due to the fact that the swirling of the cooling liquid is easy to form dead water, and therefore the over-temperature threshold value of the two bridge arms is set to be higher than that of the other four bridge arms aiming at the Sda GD950HTX75P6HB, in addition, the time for the temperature of the IGBT to rise from 110 ℃ to 125 ℃ under the maximum torque working condition is only 15-30 seconds through a bench test experiment, the over-temperature threshold value is set to be too high and easily exceeds 125 ℃ quickly to cause module damage, the two factors are comprehensively considered, the over-temperature threshold value of the U-phase lower bridge or the W-phase lower bridge is often reasonably increased from 105 ℃ to 110 ℃ in the project engineering practice application, and the other four bridge arms keep 105 ℃ unchanged. Because the six IGBT over-temperature protection design circuits are independently separated, the six IGBT over-temperature protection design circuit has the great advantage that protection can be realized by triggering the switches Q2 and Q6 to output low-level turn-off IGBT transmission paths at 110 ℃ by adjusting the resistance values of R2, RF3 and RF4 of a U-phase lower bridge or R6, RF11 and RF12 of a W-phase lower bridge according to engineering practice experience. Similarly, engineers can adjust the over-temperature protection threshold values of other four paths of IGBTs arbitrarily according to actual engineering practice requirements, so that great convenience is brought to the engineering practice requirements.

if yes, the voltage comparison module 3 outputs a low level to the over-temperature protection switch control module 4, the over-temperature protection switch control module 4 is turned off, and the input of a turn-on signal to the IGBT is stopped, so that the IGBT is turned off;
otherwise, the voltage comparison module 3 outputs a high level to the over-temperature protection switch control module 4, the over-temperature protection switch control module 4 is turned on, and a turn-on signal is input to the IGBT to turn on the IGBT.
In the present embodiment, the preset temperature threshold is 105 ℃. In order to acquire the NTC temperature more accurately, the environmental application range of the Sda GD950HTX75P6HB module is-40-140 ℃ according to technical communication with a Sda engineer, and the thermistor NTC is embedded in the module and is close to the position of the copper substrate, so that the obtained temperature can approach the actual temperature of the binding line as much as possible.
