During the transistor Q5b of the transistor Q4b for the lower arm answered and lower arm corresponding with driving coil Lw carries out turn-on action,
DC voltage Vdc be applied to the cut-off of each upper lower arm switch element (transistor Q3b, Q4a, Q5a, diode D3b, D4a,
D5a)。

The transistor and diode of part.If the element of a switch element (transistor Q3a~Q5b and diode D3a~D5b) is resistance to
Pressure is set as Vr, then as DC voltage Vdc > component pressure Vr, the transistor Q3a~Q5b or diode D3a of switch element
A possibility that~D5b is destroyed is big.
Therefore, when control unit 40 is judged as that the detected value of voltage detection department 23 has been more than defined threshold value, make lower arm
Transistor Q3a, Q3b, Q4a, Q4b, Q5a, Q5b of both sides ends.
As a result, as shown in Figure 2 B, 2 switch elements that excessive voltage is connected in series (transistor Q3a, Q3b, Q4a,
Q4b, Q5a, Q5b, diode D3a, D3b, D4a, D4b, D5a, D5b) respective both ends partial pressure.For example, partial pressure value V1 is applied to
The both ends of the switch element (transistor Q3a, Q4a, Q5a, diode D3a, D4a, D5a) of upper arm, partial pressure value V2 are applied to lower arm
Switch element (transistor Q3b, Q4b, Q5b, diode D3b, D4b, D5b) both ends.In the ideal case, if each switch
The impedance of element is equal, then V1=V2, and therefore, the excessive voltage for being applied to 1 switch element is reduced to either side progress
Half when movement, so as to protect each switch element damage.
In turn, control unit 40 make transistor Q3a~Q5b end after, to braking circuit 61 3 transistor 61u, 61v,
The respective base stage output drive signal of 61w makes to become on state between each collector-emitter.As a result, motor 51
It is braked.
The purpose braked to motor 51 is because the energy as possessed by the inductance ingredient of motor 51 and being based on
The induced voltage of the rotation of motor 51 and cause switch element diode D3a~D5b be connected a possibility that it is big.Even if assuming two
Pole pipe D3a~D5b conducting soon makes its stopping by carrying out electric braking to motor 51, can also shorten diode D3a
The time of~D5b conducting.
In addition, in the present embodiment, other than when the detected value of voltage detection department 23 is more than threshold value, control unit 40 is not
Motor 51 is braked.That is, by the way that the operating of braking is limited to only in overvoltage, to inhibit unnecessary motor
Stop.

(B-2) structure of motor driver 10
(B-2-1) relay circuit 75
In Fig. 5, relay circuit 75 makes power supply line 801 disconnect and be closed.Herein, so that power supply line 801 is disconnected and is closed is
Refer to, power supply line 801 is connected or is cut off become it is non-conduction.
As shown in figure 5, relay circuit 75 includes the relay tip 75a for making power supply line 801 disconnect and be closed, makes relay
The relay coil 75b and energization and cold transistor are carried out to relay coil 75b that device contact 75a is acted
75c。
One end of relay coil 75b is connect with the anode of driving power Vb, the collector of the other end and transistor 75c
Side connection.The presence or absence of the base current of 40 switching transistor 75c of control unit makes to be connected and end between collector and emitter,
Carry out the energization and no power to relay coil 75b.
In general, relay circuit 75 is closed power supply line 801, on state is become.On the other hand, in overvoltage,
Relay circuit 75 receives the signal output from control unit 40 to line 801 of cutting off the power.
(B-2-2) electrolytic capacitor 77
Electrolytic capacitor 77 is the electrolytic capacitor being connected in parallel with inverter 25.Herein, in relay circuit 75 from control
During portion 40 processed receives 10msec after signal exports until line 801 of cutting off the power or so, electrolytic capacitor 77 is applied
The state of overvoltage is added to continue.I.e., it is assumed that a possibility that such: to relay electricity after voltage detection department 23 detects overvoltage
During road 75 is cut off the power until line 801, overvoltage value is more than the pressure resistance of electrolytic capacitor 77.
Fig. 6 is applied to the voltage at the both ends of electrolytic capacitor 77 and flows through the relationship between the electric current of electrolytic capacitor 77
Voltage/current characteristic curve graph.
In Fig. 6, in the case where electrolytic capacitor 77, when applying the voltage for being higher than the pressure resistance of oxidation overlay film, implement to be formed
The chemical conversion treatment (voltage at this time is referred to as formation voltage (formation voltage)) for aoxidizing overlay film, flows through the electricity in electrolytic capacitor 77
Stream increases.
Wherein, electrolytic capacitor 77 will not be destroyed in 10msec or so, and both end voltage is clamped at formation voltage.
(B-3) movement of motor driver 10
Fig. 7 A is the curve graph for showing the control of the variation for DC voltage Vdc.In Fig. 5 and Fig. 7 A, work as DC voltage
When Vdc rises, the detected value of voltage detection department 23 is more than overvoltage threshold, control unit 40 is via relay circuit 75 by power supply line
801 cuttings.
Although the phase of the 10msec until the relay tip 75a to relay circuit 75 cuts off the power line 801 or so
Between DC voltage Vdc can be more than capacitor pressure resistance, but DC voltage Vdc be clamped at formation voltage (generally capacitor pressure resistance
1.3~1.5 times or so).Herein, if the component pressure of thyristor (transistor, diode) preset
For the value of the formation voltage higher than capacitor, then during the voltage clamping, relay tip 75a can cut power supply line 801
Disconnected, therefore, DC voltage Vdc is not up to semiconductor element pressure resistance.
It therefore, can will be to inverter 25 during the both end voltage of electrolytic capacitor 77 is clamped at formation voltage
The Overvoltage suppressing of application is in the formation voltage of electrolytic capacitor 77, and within this period, relay circuit 75 cuts power supply line 801
It is disconnected, thereby, it is possible to prevent electrolytic capacitor 77 from wrecking, and can reduce such to the transistor (IGBT) of inverter 25
The semiconductor element without avalanche region stress.
In addition, the area for the phenomenon that avalanche region refers to, semiconductor is more than a certain pressure resistance and flows carrier sharply
Domain.
Next, Fig. 7 B is to be loaded into tool in the curve graph of the control for the variation for DC voltage Vdc for indicating Fig. 7 A
There is the curve graph of the variation of the voltage Vds at the semiconductor element both ends of avalanche region.In Fig. 7 B, for example, by inverter 25
Transistor is replaced by IGBT and using in the case where MOSFET, and the voltage Vds at the both ends MOSFET is due to the production based on wiring inductance
It gives birth to impact or boost action etc. and can generally become to be above DC voltage Vdc.Also, voltage Vds is with along with supply voltage
Rising DC voltage Vdc rising and rise.
In this case, even if assuming to be lower than the feelings of the formation voltage of electrolytic capacitor in the semiconductor element pressure resistance of MOSFET
Under condition, voltage Vds has just been more than that semiconductor element is resistance to before the both end voltage of electrolytic capacitor 77 is clamped at formation voltage
When pressure, since voltage Vds can be clamped at avalanche voltage, during this period, the both end voltage of electrolytic capacitor 77 also can be by
Clamper is in formation voltage, and then, relay tip 75a cuts off power supply line 801.
As described above, being born during the 10msec or so until power supply line 801 is cut off using snowslide movement
Overvoltage, it is therefore not necessary to make MOSFET high voltage component.
In addition, being able to suppress the snow of MOSFET by making the both end voltage of electrolytic capacitor 77 be clamped at formation voltage
Collapse energy.

(D-1) project when charge pump circuit 46 is used
In the embodiment of the above-mentioned 1st, the 2nd and the 3rd, the overvoltage protection of the switch element of the above lower arm is emphasis progress
Explanation.But in actual use, overvoltage is not limited to switch element, further relates to the output circuit of gate driving circuit 26.
In particular, using charge pump mode as production upper arm side switch element driving power (with changed
Upper lower arm tie point current potential accordingly improves grid potential) mode in the case where, constitute switch of charge pump circuit etc.
Pressure resistance is typically designed to the pressure-resistant degree (that is, degree of DC voltage Vdc when usual) an of switch element, therefore, most
Whole resistance to compaction force is limited in the resistance to compaction force of switch for constituting charge pump circuit (referring to Fig.1 0) etc..
In Figure 10, in charge pump circuit 46, make the conducting of the 1st switch element 465, the cut-off of the 2nd switch element 466, thus
It charges to the 1st capacitor 461.Then, make the cut-off of the 1st switch element 465, the conducting of the 2nd switch element 466, thus by the 1st
The electric charge transfer accumulated in capacitor 461 is to the 2nd capacitor 462.By repeating the movement, upper arm driving power can be made
(the 2nd capacitor 462 after charging).The charging that 1st capacitor 461 and the 2nd capacitor 462 are carried out by oscillating circuit 464
It carries out.
Although the 2nd capacitor 462 is charged to Vb, since the low potential side of the 2nd capacitor 462 is connect with Vdc, because
This, the hot side of the 2nd capacitor 462 is Vb+Vdc.
Therefore, in charge pump circuit 46, the 1st switch element 465 and the 2nd switch element 466 require Vb+Vdc or more
Pressure resistance, be typically designed as degree corresponding with an element of switch element pressure resistance (that is, usually when DC voltage
The degree of Vdc).Accordingly, there exist pressure resistances when overvoltage to be limited in the resistance to of the 1st switch element 465 and the 2nd switch element 466
Press such problems.
