Problems solved by technology

The common method of shoot-through protection is to connect a relay or solid-state disconnect switch in series in the circuit, but due to its long response time, it cannot meet the rapidity requirements of SiC JFET bridge arm shoot-through protection
Another way is to use an interlock structure for the upper and lower tube drive circuits of the bridge arm or add a dead time to the drive signal, but this method cannot solve the problem that the drive circuit cannot quickly provide a sufficiently high negative turn-off voltage at the moment of power-on. Or the straight-through problem caused by the power failure of the driving power supply, it is not suitable for the normally-on SiC JFET bridge arm circuit

Abstract

The technical problem solved by the present invention is to provide an Changye -type SIC JFET drive circuit with direct protection. By adding the self -protection circuit to the driving circuit, it makes it negativeFor a safe bias voltage, forcing the subordinate SIC JFET to quickly turn off to achieve the purpose of direct protection. The auxiliary circuit in the driving circuit can effectively suppress misleading traffic, reduce the number of self -protection circuits, thereby reducing the power consumption of the drive circuit, increasing the direct connectivityProtection ability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of power electronic circuits, in particular to a normally-on SiC JFET drive circuit with through protection. Background technique [0002] Since SiC JFET (Silicon Carbide Junction Field Effect Transistor) has performance advantages such as high thermal conductivity, low on-state resistance, and fast switching speed, it is very suitable for high temperature, high efficiency, and high frequency applications and has been widely used. There are two types of SiC JFET power devices, normally on and normally off. Compared with the normally-on SiC JFET, the on-state resistance of the normally-off SiC JFET is larger, and the driving is more complicated; in addition, the threshold voltage of the normally-off SiC JFET is very low (less than 0.7V), and it is susceptible to interference and leads to false conduction. Not suitable for high frequency bridge arm circuits. [0003] The bridge arm circuit is the basic unit of all kin...
