Embodiment 1

[0033] figure 2 It means measuring SW element S U , S X A diagram of the structure of the temperature detection circuit of the temperature. Temperature sensor TD U and TD X close to the SW element S U , S X Since it is provided, a voltage of several hundred V or more is applied to the SW element similarly to the SW element depending on the on / off state of the SW element.

[0053] Actually, the temperature detection accuracy of the SW element decreases due to the dispersion of the temperature sensor and the detection circuit. In this embodiment, a method for improving the temperature detection accuracy when the inverter 2 is operated will be described.

[0054] If each temperature sensor TD U ~TD Z If there is a dispersion in accuracy or the like in the temperature detection circuit, a dispersion will also occur in the relationship of "temperature / duty ratio" of the SW element. If the same "SW element temperature / duty ratio" relationship is uniformly adopted for the input PWM signals, the detection accuracy of the SW element temperature will decrease. If using respectively matched with the temperature sensor TD U ~TD Z The relationship between the SW element temperature / duty ratio can avoid the problem of dispersion, but it is necessary to determine which SW element the PWM signal of the SW element with the highest temperature input to the co...

Abstract

Provided is a temperature detecting circuit which suppresses cost increase at minimum by adding a small number of components and meets requirements of insulation and high response. The temperature detecting circuit (15) outputs a first PWM signal, which corresponds to the temperature of a first temperature sensor (TDX), as a signal insulated from the first temperature sensor (TDX) from a photo interrupter (32). A temperature detecting circuit section (34) outputs a second PWM signal, which corresponds to the temperature of a second temperature sensor (TDU), as a signal insulated from the second temperature sensor (TDU) from a photo interrupter (56). A processing device (10) calculates a higher temperature of the temperatures detected by the first and the second temperature sensors (TDU, TDX), based on the PWM signal outputted from the photo interrupters (32, 56).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a temperature detection circuit, and in particular to temperature detection of switching elements constituting an inverter device. Background technique [0002] An electric motor is used as a power source of a hybrid vehicle or an electric vehicle combined with an engine. When driving a motor, an inverter is used to obtain a predetermined torque and frequency. Inverters are installed in automobiles, and miniaturization and high power are required to ensure passenger space. [0003] The operating temperature of the inverter greatly fluctuates depending on the driving environment of the vehicle. In particular, in a hybrid vehicle in which the inverter is mounted in the engine compartment, the inverter becomes high in temperature due to the influence of heat generated by the engine. The temperature of the switching element (hereinafter referred to as SW element) in the inverter is increased due to the constant loss cause...
