AI Technical Summary
In the existing technology, the IGCT is easily damaged by excessive voltage in the passive buffer circuit capacitor during the normal operation of the converter valve, which affects the safe operation of the DC power grid.
A protection circuit for a switching device is designed, including a first-stage protection circuit and an optional buffer circuit. The circuit, composed of capacitors and diodes connected in parallel, conducts when the voltage across the switching device exceeds a preset threshold, suppressing voltage rise. The multi-stage protection circuit achieves dynamic and static voltage equalization and bypass current to protect the IGCT module.
It effectively suppresses the voltage rise across the switching devices, protects the IGCT from damage, ensures the safe operation of the DC power grid, and improves the safety and reliability of the IGCT module.
