In this embodiment, another short-circuit protection circuit is provided, and fig. 3 is a structural diagram of a short-circuit protection circuit according to another embodiment of the present invention, in order to implement fault detection of an IGBT, as shown in fig. 3, the detection module 1 includes: a first end of the detection capacitor C1 is connected with an input end of the protection module 2, and a second end of the detection capacitor C1 is grounded; the protection circuit also comprises a charging unit 11 for charging the detection capacitor C1, wherein a first end of the charging unit 11 is connected with the drain D of the IGBT, and a second end of the charging unit 11 is connected between the detection capacitor C1 and the input end of the protection module 2; the charging unit 11 includes a first switch Q1, and the first switch Q1 is used to control whether the charging unit charges the detection capacitor C1 by turning on and off itself.

When the IGBT is turned on, the voltage of the gate G is high, a high voltage is output between the third resistor R3 and the fourth resistor R4, the first switch Q1 is driven to be turned on, the charging unit 11 is further turned on, and the detection capacitor C1 is charged, if the first switch Q1 is in a normal on state, the voltage of the capacitor C1 is equal to the saturation voltage of the IGBT, and then the charging will not be continued, if the first switch Q1 is in a short-circuit state, the capacitor C1 is further charged, the output voltage of the detection module 1 is further increased, and the protection module 2 is triggered to start short-circuit protection; when the IGBT is turned off, the voltage of the gate G is low, and a low voltage is output between the third resistor R3 and the fourth resistor R4, so as to control the first switch Q1 to turn off, and further turn off the charging unit 11, and stop charging the detection capacitor C1.
The second resistor R2, the third resistor R3, and the fourth resistor R4 are further configured to release the electric quantity of the detection capacitor C1, and after the IGBT is turned off, the first end of the detection capacitor C1, the second resistor R2, the fourth resistor R4, the third resistor R3, the driving resistor Rg, the output pin Vo of the driving chip U, the low-level pin VEE of the driving chip U, and the second end of the detection capacitor C1 form a loop to release the electric quantity of the detection capacitor C1.
Because there is a capacitor inside the IGBT, when the IGBT is turned off, the first switch Q1 still continues to be turned on for a period of time, and if the voltage at the first end of the first resistor R1 is high, the capacitor C1 is further charged, the output voltage of the detection module 1 further rises, and the protection module is triggered to start short-circuit protection by mistake, in order to avoid the above situation, it is necessary to control the voltage of the emitter of the first switch Q1, therefore, the detection module 1 further includes: the first end of the clamping element D1 is connected to the emitter of the first switch Q1, the other end is connected to the high-level pin VCC of the driver chip, in this embodiment, the clamping element D1 is a diode, the anode of the diode is connected to the emitter of the first switch Q1, the cathode of the diode is connected to the high-level pin VCC of the driver chip, and the voltage of the emitter of the first switch Q1 is controlled to a certain value by the diode, so as to avoid false triggering of short-circuit protection after the IGBT is turned off. In this embodiment, the first switch Q1 is an NPN transistor.
In order to realize that short-circuit protection is triggered after the IGBT is short-circuited, and short-circuit protection is not triggered when the IGBT is normally turned on, the protection module 2 includes: a first input end (non-inverting input end) of the comparator a is connected with the output end (namely, the first end of the detection capacitor C1) of the detection module 1, a second input end- (inverting input end) of the comparator a inputs the reference voltage Vref, the output end of the comparator a is connected with the base of the second switch Q2 through a fifth resistor R5, and the first input end + of the comparator a is the input end of the protection module 2; the collector of the second switch Q2 is connected with the external voltage V1 through a sixth resistor R6, and the emitter is grounded; the line between the collector of the second switch Q2 and the sixth resistor R6 is connected to the high level pin VCC of the driver chip U, and the sixth resistor R6 is used for current limiting. In order to provide the operating voltage for the comparator a, the positive power supply of the comparator a is connected to the high-level pin VCC of the driving chip U, and the negative power supply is grounded, in this embodiment, the second switch Q2 is an NPN type transistor.
By setting a proper voltage dividing resistor, the value of the reference voltage Vref is higher than the saturation voltage of the IGBT and lower than the output voltage of the detection module 1 when the IGBT is short-circuited. When the IGBT is normally conducted, the maximum value of the voltage of the first end of the detection capacitor C1 does not exceed the saturation voltage of the IGBT, namely the voltage of the non-inverting input end of the comparator A is smaller than the reference voltage Vref input by the inverting input end, the comparator A outputs low voltage, the second switch Q2 is not conducted, a high-level pin VCC of the driving chip U inputs a high-level signal, and the driving chip U controls the on-off of the IGBT according to the input PWM signal; when the IGBT is in short circuit, the drain voltage of the IGBT is increased, the detection capacitor C1 is continuously charged, the voltage of the first end of the detection capacitor C1 is continuously increased, the non-inverting input end of the comparator A exceeds the reference voltage Vref input by the inverting input end of the comparator A, the comparator A outputs high voltage, the second switch Q2 is turned on, the high-level pin VCC of the driving chip U is grounded, so that a low-level signal is input, the driving signal of the driving chip U is blocked, namely, no matter whether the input PWM signal is high level or low level, the driving chip U outputs low level, so that the IGBT is controlled to be turned off.
In order to provide a suitable reference voltage Vref, the short-circuit protection circuit further includes: and a first end of the reference voltage source 3 is connected with a high-voltage flat pin VCC of the driving chip U, a second end of the reference voltage source 3 is grounded, a third end of the reference voltage source 3 is connected with a second input end-of the comparator A, and the reference voltage source is used for outputting a reference voltage Vref to the second input end of the comparator. Specifically, the reference voltage source 3 includes: eighth resistance R8 and ninth resistance R9, the first end of eighth resistance R8 connects the high voltage flat pin VCC of driver chip U, and the first end of second end connection ninth resistance R9, the second end ground of ninth resistance R9, the second input of comparator A is connected to the circuit between eighth resistance R8 and ninth resistance R9. The voltage output by the high-voltage flat pin VCC is divided through the eighth resistor R8 and the ninth resistor R9 to obtain the reference voltage Vref, and the required reference voltage Vref can be obtained by designing the resistance values of the eighth resistor R8 and the ninth resistor R9.
In practical applications, the output voltage of the comparator a may fluctuate, which may cause the base voltage of the second switch Q2 to rise, and trigger the short-circuit protection by mistake, and in order to avoid the above situation, the protection module 2 further includes: and a first end of the seventh resistor R7 and a second end of the seventh resistor R7 are connected with the collector of the second switch Q2, and a base electrode of the second switch Q2, so that the base electrode voltage of the second switch is kept stable, and false triggering is avoided.
According to the above, since there is a capacitor inside the IGBT, after the driving chip U outputs a low level signal, the IGBT cannot be turned off in time, which may cause a false trigger of the short-circuit protection, and in order to release the electric quantity of the capacitor inside the IGBT as soon as possible, the short-circuit protection circuit further includes: and a third switch Q3, wherein the base of the third switch Q3 is connected between the output pin Vo of the driving chip and the driving resistor Rg through a tenth resistor R10, the emitter is connected with the grid G of the IGBT, and the collector is grounded. The third switch Q3 is turned on after the driving chip U outputs a low-level signal, electric quantity of a capacitor between the grid electrode and the source electrode of the IGBT is released, and short-circuit protection is prevented from being triggered by mistake. In this embodiment, the third switch Q3 is a PNP type triode, and the first end of the detection capacitor C1, the second resistor R2, the fourth resistor R4, the third resistor R3, the third switch Q3, the low-level pin VEE of the driving chip U, and the second end of the detection capacitor C1 also form a loop to release the electric quantity of the detection capacitor C1.
Example 3
The present embodiment provides another short-circuit protection circuit, the structure of the short-circuit protection circuit of the present embodiment is as shown in fig. 3 mentioned above, the short-circuit protection circuit mainly includes three parts, namely, a detection module 1, a protection module 2 and a reference voltage source 3, wherein the detection module includes a detection capacitor C1, a first resistor R1, a first switch Q1, a second resistor R2, a clamping diode D1, a third resistor and a fourth resistor; the protection module comprises an operational amplifier comparator A, a second switch Q2, a fifth resistor R5, a sixth resistor R6 and a seventh resistor R7; the reference voltage source 3 includes an eighth resistor R8 and a fourth resistor R9.
The driving circuit comprises a driving chip U and a driving resistor Rg, wherein the driving chip U is a common driving IC.
When the driving circuit normally operates, the output pin of the driving chip U can synchronously output driving signals under the excitation of the PWM pulse input by the driving chip U. Normally, the driving signal is divided into two states of high level and low level: when the driving signal is at high level, the output current flows through the driving resistor Rg to charge the internal capacitor of the IGBTElectrically, the IGBT starts to conduct slowly, the voltage V between the drain D and the source SDSThe voltage is continuously reduced. Meanwhile, as the potential of the gate G of the IGBT increases, under the voltage division effect of the third resistor R3 and the fourth resistor R4, the PN junction between the base and the emitter of the first switch Q1 is turned on in a forward biased manner, a current flows between the base and the emitter, and the detection capacitor C1 is charged through the second resistor R2 until the saturation voltage vce (sat) of the IGBT is reached. When the driving signal is low, the base potential of the first switch Q1 cannot maintain the PN junction on, and at this time, the collector and emitter of the first switch Q1 are disconnected, and current cannot flow. Meanwhile, the base emitter of the third switch Q3 is forward biased and turned on, and a current can flow between the collector and the emitter, so that on one hand, the internal capacitance of the IGBT can be discharged, and on the other hand, the detection capacitor C1 can be discharged to zero potential through the second resistor R2, the fourth resistor R4, the third resistor R3 and the third switch Q3.
