[0047] Research has found that in the existing technology, the consistency problem of IGBT modules is usually partially compensated by optimizing the drive circuit design or busbar layout. However, this method is subject to the parameter differences of the module itself and cannot fundamentally solve the problem of uneven current. In addition, some studies have attempted to improve consistency by screening IGBT modules, but the existing screening standards are mostly based on a single parameter, and do not fully consider the combined impact of multiple parameters and their performance in actual applications, making it difficult to meet the requirements of high-power converters.

[0048] Based on the above research, the present disclosure provides a device consistency test screening method, device and electronic equipment, by setting parallel IGBT modules, wherein the IGBT modules are provided with uniform and symmetrical laminated busbars; setting the gate signal wiring length corresponding to each IGBT module to be consistent; selecting the target topology structure corresponding to the IGBT module, and screening the target IGBT module that meets the preset parameter index; performing single and double pulse tests on the target IGBT module, and determining that the static average current and dynamic average current corresponding to the target IGBT module are both less than the preset average current threshold. The consistency of the IGBT module can be improved through topology optimization design, multi-parameter screening and comprehensive performance testing, thereby improving the reliability and efficiency of the converter system.

[0049] To facilitate understanding of the present embodiment, a device consistency test screening method disclosed in the embodiment of the present disclosure is first introduced in detail. The execution subject of the device consistency test screening method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure is generally a computer device with certain computing capabilities, and the computer device includes, for example: a terminal device or a server or other processing device, and the terminal device can be a user equipment (User Equipment, UE), a mobile device, a user terminal, a terminal, a cellular phone, a cordless phone, a personal digital assistant (Personal Digital Assistant, PDA), a handheld device, a computing device, a vehicle-mounted device, a wearable device, etc. In some possible implementations, the device consistency test screening method can be implemented by a processor calling a computer-readable instruction stored in a memory.

[0050] See also Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a device consistency test screening method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, the method comprising steps S101 to S104, wherein:

[0051] S101 , setting parallel IGBT modules, wherein the IGBT modules are provided with uniformly symmetrical laminated busbars.

[0052] In specific implementation, in MW-level and above power units, the parallel connection of IGBT modules needs to optimize the structural symmetry of the current loop to ensure the uniformity of current distribution between modules. By optimizing the structure of the current loop, the current path length and impedance distribution of each parallel module are made as consistent as possible to reduce static and dynamic current unevenness.

[0053] Here, the busbars of the parallel modules adopt a multi-layer stacking structure, with each layer transmitting positive, negative and signals respectively, ensuring the same electromagnetic coupling between different layers. The relative positions between the positive and negative busbars remain completely symmetrical to reduce the difference in parasitic inductance. The distance from each parallel module to the connection point of the busbar remains equal to avoid uneven current distribution due to differences in path length.

[0054] The confluence point is the location where the currents of multiple modules converge. At the confluence point, ensure that the current path length and electrical impedance are completely symmetrical. For the IGBT module in four-parallel mode, connect each two branches in parallel with a copper busbar, and then lead the busbar out from the middle of the parallel copper busbar; for the IGBT module in three-parallel mode, set the path from each branch to the AC side reactor to be consistent. This design reduces the path difference between modules and ensures uniform current distribution.

[0055] It should be noted that in the selection of copper busbar materials, high conductivity materials (such as pure copper or copper alloy) are used to reduce resistance and improve current transmission efficiency. The parasitic inductance of the current loop directly affects the consistency of dynamic current distribution. By arranging the positive and negative busbars in parallel to form a compact loop, the inductance effect during current switching can be reduced, or the path of the current loop can be shortened as much as possible to reduce the impact of parasitic inductance on current sharing.

[0056] Preferably, the connection point of each module is completely consistent with the busbar, including the position, area, thickness, etc. of the welding point, to ensure symmetry of the electrical characteristics. In the parallel structure, some modules may have too long connection paths due to physical layout, forming "long branches". This asymmetry will significantly affect the current distribution, so it is necessary to avoid the long branch phenomenon through reasonable layout design.

[0057] For example, for the IGBT module in four-parallel mode, a dual-module bus design is adopted. Every two modules are connected in parallel through equal-length copper bars, and then they are respectively connected to the middle of the busbar. The path length and resistance from the module to the load are exactly the same, ensuring the current uniformity under dynamic conditions. For the IGBT module in three-parallel mode, the modules are arranged in a triangle, and the path length from the connection copper bar of each module to the busbar is equal. Through the symmetrical lead-out design, the electrical path from the module to the load is guaranteed to be consistent.

[0058] S102: Set the gate signal wiring length corresponding to each IGBT module to be consistent.

[0059] In specific implementation, in the design of parallel IGBT modules, the consistency of the driving signal directly affects the switching synchronization and current sharing performance of the IGBT module. The driving signal mainly refers to the transmission and control of the gate (Gate-Emitter, GE) signal.

[0060] Here, driving capability refers to the ability of the driving circuit to apply control signals to the IGBT gate, including parameters such as signal amplitude, rise and fall time, and driving current. To ensure that the driving capability meets the design requirements, sufficient driving current, precise control of driving voltage, and avoidance of overdriving and underdriving are required.

[0061] Among them, the IGBT gate has a capacitive characteristic, which requires charging and discharging when switching. Insufficient driving current will cause switching delays and affect the dynamic current sharing performance. According to the total gate capacitance of the parallel IGBT modules, the driving current requirement is calculated; the driving current is usually selected to quickly complete the gate charging and discharging to ensure the switching speed; the driving current value is generally 10-20 times the charging requirement of the gate capacitance, which is determined by the module parameters. The gate opening and closing voltages of the IGBT need to be precisely controlled to avoid asynchrony between modules. The gate opening voltage (such as +15V) and the turn-off voltage (such as -8V) need to be within the design value range without obvious deviation. Use a high-precision voltage regulator to ensure the stability of the driving voltage. However, excessive driving voltage will increase switching losses and may even damage the IGBT. Too low driving voltage will cause inconsistent switching speeds, resulting in dynamic uneven current sharing. Add protection circuits, such as clamping circuits or voltage regulators, to the drive circuit to limit the driving voltage within a safe range.

[0062] Furthermore, the different transmission path lengths of GE signals will introduce propagation delay differences, resulting in asynchronous module switching times. Under dynamic conditions, inconsistent switching sequences will cause current fluctuations, increasing the risk of uneven current in parallel IGBT modules. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the wiring length of the gate drive signals of all parallel IGBTs from the drive circuit output to the IGBT gate input consistent. Through wiring adjustment or compensation technology, the electrical length of all paths is equal.

[0063] Here, in the PCB design, the driving signal lines are arranged as serpentine lines of equal length. For example, if a signal path is shorter, its bends are increased to extend the path length; based on the longest path, other paths are adjusted to match their lengths. In the layout, the driver and IGBT module are placed symmetrically as much as possible to reduce wiring complexity.

[0064] For example, for the IGBT module in four parallel mode, the output point of the driving circuit is located in the center of the PCB, and the GE signal is output to the four IGBT modules respectively. The serpentine wiring technology is used to ensure that the length of the four driving signal lines from the output point to the gate input terminal is exactly the same, and a shielding layer is added to each signal line, and decoupling capacitors are arranged at key positions to reduce noise interference. For the IGBT module in three parallel mode, the differential driving signal is transmitted to the three module gates through equal-length wire pairs respectively, using shielded differential wire pairs, and the driver and IGBT module are arranged in an equidistant triangle layout to optimize the wiring length.

[0065] S103 , selecting a target topology structure corresponding to the IGBT module, and screening a target IGBT module that meets preset parameter indicators.

[0066] In specific implementation, the topology refers to the specific connection method and current path design of the power circuit. The topology determines the current distribution method of the IGBT module, the switching timing of the IGBT module, the drive signal design, and the voltage and current distribution pattern during the commutation process. For a specific topology, the control scheme optimizes the operating characteristics of the module through precise signal control (such as drive gate signal consistency).

[0067] Here, in MW-level and above power units, a three-level topology is usually used. The NPC1 topology is a classic three-level topology with a simple circuit but a long commutation path and large stray inductance, which can easily cause a large dv / dt and lead to inconsistent dynamic performance. It is suitable for low-power units or scenarios with low requirements for dv / dt. The NPC2 topology optimizes part of the commutation path and reduces the stray inductance generated during the commutation process, but there are still problems with dv / dt and uneven heat distribution, which is suitable for medium-power units. The ANPC topology adds two clamping IGBTs on the basis of the NPC structure, which significantly shortens the commutation path and significantly reduces the impact of stray inductance on dv / dt. Through a flexible clamping strategy, it optimizes heat distribution and improves dynamic current sharing performance. However, the circuit is slightly complex and the control strategy requirements are high. It is suitable for high power density scenarios (such as MW-level power units).

[0068] Preferably, the ANPC topology structure is adopted in the embodiment of the present application, which can effectively balance the dynamic performance of the module and is suitable for high-power applications when IGBT modules are connected in parallel.

[0069] Furthermore, after the target topology is determined, the IGBT module needs to undergo strict parameter screening to ensure the uniformity of module performance and avoid current sharing problems caused by inconsistent parameters. The IGBT module is composed of multiple chips in parallel, and the discreteness of its parameters will lead to performance differences between modules, including switching performance differences: affecting dynamic current sharing capability; conduction loss differences: affecting power distribution between modules; thermal characteristic differences: leading to uneven heat distribution and exacerbating local overheating problems. Through screening, it can be ensured that the module performance is within the preset parameter range, reduce current sharing errors, and improve system reliability.

[0070] Here, the preset parameters for screening generally include gate threshold voltage (Vth), transfer characteristics and equivalent transconductance. The deviation value between the gate threshold voltage corresponding to the screening IGBT module and the preset first voltage design value is not greater than the preset first voltage threshold; in the screening transfer characteristics, the deviation value between the gate voltage value corresponding to the IGBT module under the preset target current and the preset second voltage design value is not greater than the preset second voltage threshold; the deviation value between the equivalent transconductance corresponding to the screening IGBT module and the preset third voltage design value is not greater than the preset third voltage threshold.

[0071] Preferably, the gate threshold voltage is the turn-on voltage of the IGBT, which needs to be within the range of ±0.5V of the design value to ensure consistent switching timing between modules and avoid dynamic uneven current. For the transfer characteristics, the gate voltage at 25A current is tested, and it is required to be within the range of ±0.5V of the design value to evaluate the switching current capability of the module and avoid differences in module load distribution due to inconsistent transfer characteristics. The transconductance of the chip reflects its current transmission capability, and it is required to be within the range of ±0.5V of the design value to ensure consistent current transmission characteristics between modules.

[0072] Specifically, IGBT modules are selected by batch to minimize the performance differences between different production batches. Test parameters such as Vth, transfer characteristics, and transconductance of each module are tested using test equipment to eliminate modules that do not meet the preset indicators. The dynamic current sharing performance of the module is evaluated through single and double pulse tests to ensure that the current sharing error of the module under dynamic working conditions is less than 5%.

[0073] S104 , performing single and double pulse tests on the target IGBT module to determine whether the static average current and the dynamic average current corresponding to the target IGBT module are both less than a preset average current threshold.

[0074] In specific implementation, single and double pulse testing is an experimental method commonly used for power semiconductor devices (such as IGBT), which is divided into two modes: single pulse testing: used to measure the static characteristics of IGBT, such as on-state voltage drop and off-state current capability; double pulse testing: used to evaluate the dynamic characteristics of IGBT, such as switching speed, switching loss, and the influence of parasitic parameters (such as parasitic inductance and capacitance).

[0075] Here, the purpose of the single pulse test is to measure the static current sharing performance of the IGBT module. A single current pulse is applied to the module, and the current distribution of each parallel branch is recorded to evaluate whether the current distribution of each module is uniform in the stable conduction state and to detect the impact of the conduction voltage drop difference between modules on the static current sharing. The purpose of the double pulse test is to measure the dynamic current sharing performance of the IGBT module. First, the first pulse is applied to make the module enter the conduction state, and then the second pulse is applied to observe the current response of the module during the switching transient process, so as to test whether there is a dynamic current sharing error between modules during the opening and closing process and evaluate the switching loss distribution and dynamic performance consistency.

[0076] See also Figure 2 As shown, it is a flowchart of a device consistency test screening method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, the method includes steps S1041 to S1043, wherein:

[0077] S1041. Construct a single and double pulse test platform including a capacitor pool, a DC busbar, a pulse generator and an adjustable load inductor.

[0078] S1042. For the static current sharing test, the switching voltage corresponding to the target IGBT module and the on-current of each branch are collected through the single and double pulse test platform, and the branch current distribution coefficient corresponding to the branch on-current is determined to ensure the consistency of the static parameters of the target IGBT module.

[0079] S1043. For the dynamic current averaging test, the switching characteristic parameters of the target IGBT module during the switching process are collected through the single and double pulse test platform to ensure that the target IGBT module has consistency in dynamic parameters.

[0080] In the specific implementation, the capacitor pool is used to generate the large current required for the pulse test; the DC bus is used to connect the capacitor pool and the test loop to form a low-impedance current path; the pulse generator is used to generate single and double pulse signals to control the on and off of the target IGBT module to simulate the actual working conditions; the adjustable load inductance is used to simulate the switching response of the inductive load.

[0081] Here, during the test, the system is initialized first, the various components in the test platform are connected, the circuit is complete and the contact is good, and the voltage, current and pulse width parameters of the pulse generator are set. During the single pulse test, a single pulse current signal is applied, the current value of each parallel IGBT branch is recorded, and the static current sharing is calculated; during the double pulse test, a double pulse current signal is applied, the current value of each branch during the opening and closing process is recorded, and the dynamic current sharing is calculated.

[0082] Among them, the static current distribution describes the uniformity of the current distribution of the parallel module in the on state, which is calculated by the ratio between the difference between the maximum and minimum currents of each branch and the average value of the current of each branch. The static current distribution should be lower than the preset threshold (such as 5%). The dynamic current distribution describes the uniformity of the current distribution of the parallel module during the transient process of opening and closing. It is calculated by the ratio between the difference between the maximum and minimum values ​​of the dynamic current and the average value of the dynamic current. The dynamic current distribution should be lower than the preset threshold (such as 5%).

The consistency of the IGBT module can be improved through topology optimization design, multi-parameter screening and comprehensive performance testing, thereby improving the reliability and efficiency of the converter system.

[0084] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that, in the above method of specific implementation, the order in which the steps are written does not imply a strict execution order and does not constitute any limitation on the implementation process. The specific execution order of the steps should be determined by their functions and possible internal logic.
