Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power electronics and high voltage measurement technology, and in particular to a method and apparatus for measuring the gate voltage of an integrated gate commutated thyristor device. Background Technology

[0002] Gate-commutated thyristors (IGCTs) possess characteristics such as high blocking voltage, strong current-carrying capacity, and low on-state voltage, making them promising candidates for applications in DC power grids, locomotive traction, and metallurgical and chemical industries. As a current-controlled device, the gate-commutated thyristor's gate drive circuit is relatively complex. Typically, the gate-commutated thyristor and its drive circuit are integrated together to form an integrated gate-commutated thyristor (IGCT). Besides the thyristor chip, the integrated gate-commutated thyristor contains numerous other electronic components, which to some extent limits the reliability of this type of device. To ensure long-term safe and reliable operation, real-time monitoring of its key characteristic parameters is necessary.

[0003] In integrated gate-commutated thyristors, the gate voltage is a crucial characteristic parameter reflecting the device's state, providing direct reference value for junction temperature prediction, commutation characteristic evaluation, and even aging and failure assessment. Engineering applications demand high measurement accuracy of the gate voltage; for example, in junction temperature prediction, it typically needs to reach the millivolt or even microvolt level to be of practical value. Online measurement also requires a fast response time, at least on the microsecond level. Because integrated gate-commutated thyristors usually operate under high voltage and high current conditions, and are constantly in a high-speed switching state, they experience significant electromagnetic interference, both internally and in their surrounding environment, making accurate online measurement of the gate voltage extremely difficult.

[0004] For gate voltage measurement, the common approach is to first use a voltage divider to divide the voltage before introducing an ADC for measurement. The main drawback of this method is that, due to the low voltage at turn-on (~0.6V), direct sampling after voltage division (assuming a divider ratio of 8, then 0.075V at turn-on and 2.5V at turn-off) will not fully utilize the ADC's range, leading to significant measurement errors. Furthermore, the strong electromagnetic interference in actual operating conditions must also be considered, thus limiting this method to measurement accuracy only in the tens of millivolt range. In addition, there is currently a lack of effective methods to address the response time requirements of online measurements.

[0005] In summary, the gate voltage of an integrated gate-commutated thyristor is an important characteristic parameter reflecting the device's own state, but currently there is a lack of real-time and accurate online measurement methods. Summary of the Invention

[0039] In the existing technology, the gate voltage of an integrated gate-commutated thyristor is an important characteristic parameter reflecting the state of the device itself, but there is currently a lack of real-time and accurate online measurement methods.

[0040] This invention addresses the challenge of accurately measuring the gate voltage of integrated gate-commutated thyristors (IGCTs) by proposing two solutions: First, with the assistance of a high-speed analog switch, the negative 20V voltage applied to the gate during the IGCT device's turn-off period is blocked, allowing only the weak signal to be measured when the device is on to enter the amplification circuit.

[0042] The gate G of the integrated gate commutated thyristor is connected to the first input terminal of the synchronization control module through resistor R1; the cathode K of the integrated gate commutated thyristor is connected to the second input terminal of the synchronization control module through resistor R2.

[0043] The first input terminal of the synchronization control module is connected to the first connection terminal of analog switch Q1, and the second input terminal of the synchronization control module is connected to the third connection terminal of analog switch Q2; the output terminal of the synchronization control module is v. q1 Connect the second connection terminal of analog switch Q1; output terminal v of the synchronous control module q2 Connect the second connection terminal of analog switch Q2; output terminal v of the synchronous control module tri Connect the input terminal of the delay control module; connect the third connection terminal of analog switch Q1 to the first connection terminal of analog switch Q2.

[0062] In practice, Figure 1 In this circuit, G and K correspond to the gate and cathode of the IGCT, respectively, and the gate voltage is the voltage between G and K. G and K are introduced into the synchronization control module through R1 and R2, respectively, and then into the differential amplifier circuit via analog switch Q1, before entering the sample-and-hold and AD sampling modules.

[0063] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the principles of the present invention are explained below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0064] This invention addresses the challenge of accurately measuring the gate voltage of integrated gate-commutated thyristors (IGCTs) by proposing two solutions: First, with the assistance of a high-speed analog switch, the negative 20V voltage applied to the gate during the IGCT device's turn-off period is blocked, allowing only the weak signal to be measured when the device is on to enter the amplification circuit. After amplification, this signal enters the subsequent sampling circuit, thus fully utilizing the ADC chip's range and improving conversion accuracy. Second, at the moment the device is on, high-speed sample-and-hold and multiple high-speed samplings are implemented under the control of a synchronization signal, further improving the measurement accuracy of the gate voltage at a specific moment. Since the selected devices are all high-speed devices, accurate measurement can be achieved while also ensuring real-time performance to a certain extent.

[0065] Figure 1This circuit implements online gate voltage measurement. Q1 and Q2 are analog switches, using Analog Devices (ADI) integrated chips, model ADG453. This chip integrates four analog switches, forming two pairs of normally open / normally closed switches; any pair can be selected in this circuit. The device's turn-on time is 70ns, and its turn-off time is 60ns.

[0066] Figure 1 In this circuit, G and K correspond to the gate and cathode of the IGCT, respectively, and the gate voltage is the voltage between G and K. G and K are introduced into the synchronization control module through R1 and R2, respectively, and then into the differential amplifier circuit via analog switch Q1, before entering the sample-and-hold and AD sampling modules. The control signal v for the sample-and-hold and AD sampling modules... dl The input comes from the delay control module; the input of this module comes from the output v of the synchronization control module. tri When Q1 is closed and Q2 is open, it will enable energy v. tri After a delay, sampling and holding and AD sampling are started.

[0067] The timing sequence of the synchronization control module and the delay control module is as follows: Figure 2 As shown.

[0068] Figure 2 In the middle, v GK The gate voltage; Q1, Q2 and v tri These are the output signals of the synchronization module. Q1 and Q2 are both closed when high and open when low. dl This is the output signal of the delay control module. When the IGCT is turned on, the gate voltage changes from -20V to ~0.6V (this voltage fluctuates during conduction). At this time, the synchronization module triggers Q1 to close and Q2 to open, and the gate voltage enters the differential amplifier, sample-and-hold, and AD sampling modules. The purpose of setting Q2 is to block the -20V applied to the gate when the IGCT is turned off. The purpose of adding the delay control module is twofold: first, to avoid interference during switchover; and second, to measure the gate signal at a specific moment after the IGCT is turned on. The delay module's parameters can be configured... Figure 2 Chinese v dl The delay time Δt1 and duration Δt2 are shown in the waveform diagram.

[0069] The purpose of setting the duration Δt2 is to accurately measure the gate signal at a specific moment. The following section combines the delay control module and the differential amplifier module to output v. o Timing diagram ( Figure 3 (This will be explained.)

[0070] Figure 3 v in o From the differential amplifier module, Figure 2 v in GKAfter differential amplification, the -20V signal is blocked, transforming it into a signal with an amplitude range of 0–2.4V (amplified four times from ~0.6V, assuming it reaches 80% of the AD chip's full-scale range, and the AD chip's full-scale range is 3V), i.e., v o Its voltage is 0V when the IGCT is off and ~2.4V (with fluctuations) when it is on. dl Under the control of the signal, the sample-and-hold module maintains the output v at that moment after IGCT is turned on by Δt1. o Then, the AD sampling module is started, and N samples are continuously taken within Δt2. Figure 3 (The measurement is performed 3 times). The purpose of this setting is to accurately measure gate voltage signals of only a few tenths of a volt in environments with strong electromagnetic interference. The above implementation mainly considers two measures: First, blocking the -20V on the gate when the IGCT is turned off, and amplifying the ~0.6V when the IGCT is turned on to 80% of the full scale of the AD chip, so as to make full use of the effective number of bits of the ADC chip; Second, with the cooperation of the sample-and-hold module, the gate voltage at a specific moment is sampled multiple times, and the measurement accuracy can be further improved after data filtering.
