Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of power electronics, and particularly relates to a digital intelligent IGBT (Insulated gate bipolar Transistor) driving method and a system thereof.
Background
The power electronic system is composed of a main circuit and a control circuit. The main circuit is composed of switching devices such as IGBT, the operating environment of the high-power IGBT is generally severe, the voltage borne by the high-power IGBT can be as high as over kilovolt, and once a fault occurs, the fault is not processed in time, so that serious consequences and even safety accidents can be caused. The driving circuit is an interface between the main circuit and the control circuit, and the performance of the driving circuit directly affects the working performance of the whole system. Therefore, a good driving circuit can enable the IGBT to work in a more ideal switching state and is of great importance to the safe operation of the whole system.
The traditional IGBT drive consists of discrete components and pure analog components, the realized protection function is limited, even if a fault occurs, the drive circuit reports the fault by sending high and low levels or pulses with a certain width to the control circuit, all functions of the system are closed to protect the IGBT, and the fault information is not recorded, so that the fault reason cannot be analyzed to solve the fault problem in a targeted manner. In addition, for traditional IGBT drive, each driver is only suitable for the IGBT of the corresponding model, and compatibility is poor.
In recent years, with the development of power electronic technology, digital IGBT driving appears, which not only solves the above problems, but also controls the on/off of the IGBT, reduces switching delay and miller plateau time, and reduces switching loss. However, the existing digital driving still has the following defects:
(1) only as logic processing, for different series and models of IGBT modules, the turn-on and turn-off can not be carried out by dv/dt and di/dt which are consistent with preset values within set time, so that the declared intellectualization can not be completely achieved.
(2) The series and parallel applications of the IGBT modules are still discussed separately, or even though the IGBT modules are put together, the corresponding series and parallel applications can be realized only by selecting a single tube, a series or a parallel mode in advance, and the IGBT modules of the same manufacturer and the same batch are required to be used, which undoubtedly limits the series and parallel applications of the IGBT modules.
The above background disclosure is only for the purpose of assisting understanding of the inventive concept and technical solutions of the present invention, and does not necessarily belong to the prior art of the present patent application, and should not be used for evaluating the novelty and inventive step of the present application in the case that there is no clear evidence that the above content is disclosed at the filing date of the present patent application.

And then, in the nth time slot in the turn-on process of the IGBT module, the IGBT module is turned on by the variable gate resistance adjusted in the time slot.
As shown in fig. 4, in the turn-off process of the IGBT module, dv/dt and di/dt of the nth time period are detected, and whether dv/dt corresponding to the preset dv/dt of the nth time period is determinedoffnAnd di/dtoffnAnd if the time periods are not consistent, judging whether the time periods are larger than or smaller than the preset value of the time period. If the time is larger than the preset value of the time period, the variable gate resistance is adjusted to be turned off in the corresponding turn-off time period so as to increase the gate turn-off resistance; if the current value is less than the preset value, the variable gate pole resistance is adjusted to be turned off in the corresponding turn-off time period to reduce the gate pole turn-off resistance, the time period is detected, judged and adjusted again when the IGBT module is turned off next time, and the process is circulated until dv/dt, di/dt and the turn-off preset value dv/dt in the corresponding time period in the time periodoffnAnd di/dtoffnUntil they match. And then, in the nth time period in the turn-off process of the IGBT module, the IGBT module is turned off by the variable gate resistance adjusted in the time period.
As shown in fig. 5, in the first turn-on process of the IGBT module, dv/dt and di/dt of the time period are detected as follows: dv/dton1And di/dton1After being judged to be smaller than the preset value dv/dt of the time periodon1And di/dton1Adjusting the turn-on variable gate resistance corresponding to the turn-on time period to reduce the gate turn-on resistance value; in the second opening process, detecting dv/dt and di/dt of the time period, wherein the dv/dt and the di/dt are respectively as follows: dv/dton2And di/dton2After being judged to be larger than the preset value dv/dt of the time periodon1And di/dton1Adjusting the turn-on variable gate resistance corresponding to the turn-on time period to increase the gate turn-on resistance value; the above steps are circulated until the m-th opening process detects that the time period isdv/dt, di/dt and preset values are matched. And then, in the nth time slot in the turn-on process of the IGBT module, the IGBT module is turned on by the variable gate resistance adjusted in the time slot.
The adjustment process of the nth (n is 1,2, …, n) time period in the turn-off process of the IGBT module is similar to the turn-on process, and is not described again.

The intelligent driving mode provided by the above method can rapidly approach the preset value by adjusting the turn-on and turn-off time of the IGBT within a plurality of hours of the turn-on or turn-off time, and can realize judgment and analysis within a smaller time period by detecting the data of dv/dt and di/dt and comparing the dv/dt and the di/dt with the preset value as the turn-on and turn-off of the IGBT are generally in the mu s level, thereby realizing multiple cycles to rapidly approach the preset value.
In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 6, the method further includes the following steps:
1) detecting a collector-emitter voltage VCE (VCE) by a VCE detection circuit;
2) comparing the acquired collector-emitter voltage VCE with different VCE threshold voltage values according to different preset VCE threshold voltage values to obtain a threshold voltage interval where the collector-emitter voltage VCE is located;
3) and analyzing the short circuit state of the IGBT module in a digital signal mode according to the threshold voltage interval.

Of course, VCE (collector-emitter voltage VCE) is detected only when the IGBT is turned on, and is not detected when the IGBT is turned off. When VCE is started<VCEREF1Judging that the IGBT is in a normal state; when VCE is startedREF1<VCE<VCEREF2Judging that the IGBT has a second type short circuit; when VCE is startedREF2<VCE<VCEREF3、VCEREF3<VCE<VCEREF4Or VCE>VCEREF4And judging that the IGBT has a short circuit, wherein the larger the VCE is, the more serious the short circuit is.
In the short circuit detection of the embodiment, the collector-emitter voltage is collected and judged by a plurality of comparators, and the digital signal obtained according to the judgment is controlled by the digital control chip to complete the short circuit judgment; by the detection method, the detected collector-emitter voltage does not need to be sent to the digital control chip after being converted by the conversion circuit, the judgment speed is improved, and the comparator can be of a high-speed type to reduce delay.
Example two
As shown in FIG. 2, the difference between the first embodiment and the second embodiment is that after the power-on, the second embodiment has two working modes, ①, the IGBT module operates according to the turn-on and turn-off data given by the external controller, ②, the IGBT module operates according to the turn-on and turn-off data stored during the last power-off, after the system is powered on, whether the external controller gives the corresponding turn-on and turn-off data is judged, if the external controller gives the corresponding turn-on and turn-off data, the IGBT module is controlled to be turned on and off according to the data given by the external controller, otherwise, the IGBT module is controlled to be turned on and off according to the data stored during the last power-off, after each turn-on and turn-off, the IGBT module is directly turned on and turned off according to the data dv/dt and the change rate of the collector current, and the data corresponding to the time periods are converted by a conversion circuit to judge whether the data preset in each time period in the chip are consistent with the IGBT module, if the data are consistent to the data, the IGBT module is directly turned on and turn-off, the IGBT module is operated according to the preset value dv/dt, otherwise, the corresponding turn-on and turn-off resistance value of the IGBT module is detected, and the IGBT module is adaptively changed according to the corresponding turn-on and turn-off, and turn-on/dt, and turn-off time, and turn-off, and turn-on and turn-off time of the IGBT module is finally.
In this embodiment, when a short-circuit fault occurs, the system can distinguish the short-circuit state of the IGBT according to the VCE detection circuit and the di/dt detection circuit, that is: when the di/dt detection circuit transmits a low level to the digital control chip, a short-circuit fault occurs, and meanwhile, whether the IGBT module generates a first-class short circuit or a second-class short circuit is judged according to four groups of signals transmitted back by the VCE detection circuit, and the IGBT is turned off by selecting a corresponding mode, so that a voltage spike generated during turn-off is prevented from exceeding a safe working area of the IGBT. Compared with the traditional method for distinguishing the short circuit of the IGBT, the method provided by the invention has relatively higher reliability for judging the short circuit state.
