Problems solved by technology

The inconsistency of the IGBT's own parameters will lead to differences in the switching characteristics of each series-connected IGBT (such as turn-on and turn-off delays, the voltage change rate dV / dt during turn-on and turn-off), which will lead to voltage imbalances among the series-connected switch tubes.
In addition, the difference in the delay time of the driving signal will cause a higher dynamic voltage on the IGBT that is turned on later and turned off first, resulting in the problem of uneven voltage balance of the IGBT series
Therefore, the core problem of IGBT series application is the problem of voltage equalization

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of power electronics, and relates to an IGBT series voltage equalizing circuit and a method. Background technique [0002] Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) combines the advantages of power field effect transistor (MOSFET) and power transistor, and has the advantages of high input impedance, low driving power, and good switching characteristics. It is an ideal fully controlled device. It has been widely used in power electronic equipment. However, for high-voltage and high-power power electronic equipment, the voltage level of a single IGBT cannot meet the requirements of the equipment, which makes it an effective choice to connect multiple IGBTs in series as a basic unit. [0003] The key to the application of IGBT in series is to ensure the voltage balance of each IGBT in the switching dynamic and steady state. The reasons for the uneven voltage balance of the IGBT series mainly include the incons...
