Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of parameter control technology; specifically, to a method, device and electronic device for determining the gate resistance of a hybrid device. Background Art
[0002] As the core device in power electronic converters, power semiconductor devices have been widely used in new energy system inverters, battery management, electric drive systems, frequency converters and other fields. Si IGBT-SiC MOSFET hybrid devices can combine the high current carrying capacity of IGBT and the high frequency and high efficiency characteristics of SiC MOSFET to achieve complementary advantages of the two devices. Compared with IGBT devices, the switching loss is lower, and compared with the full SiC solution, the cost is lower, which can achieve a compromise between performance and cost.
[0003] The gate resistor controls the charge and discharge rate of the gate capacitance by changing the gate drive current, thereby affecting the rate of change of the gate voltage and the switching speed of the power device. A larger gate resistor will reduce the switching speed and increase the switching loss. A gate resistance value that is too small will reduce the damping coefficient of the gate drive circuit and easily cause gate voltage oscillation and overshoot. Therefore, choosing a suitable gate resistor is crucial to optimizing the switching characteristics of power devices, improving efficiency and ensuring device reliability.
[0004] However, hybrid devices involve both IGBT and SiC MOSFET, and the gate resistance of both will affect the switching behavior of the hybrid device. The traditional method of determining the gate resistance through physical testing is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also costly when applied to hybrid devices. It is also difficult to obtain a gate resistance value that can achieve minimum switching loss while ensuring the safe operation of the hybrid device.

[0026] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a method for determining the gate resistance of a hybrid device provided in an embodiment of the present application; Figure 1 As shown, the method specifically comprises the following steps: Step S10: Obtain a parasitic parameter circuit model of the hybrid device according to the design model of the hybrid device.
[0027] The hybrid device in this embodiment includes at least one first power device and at least one second power device. The first power device and the second power device have the same function but different characteristics, that is, the first power device and the second power device have the same switching function, but the device type, process material, process technology, etc. of the two are different. The first power device can be SiC-MOSFET (SiC-Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor), and the second power device can be Si-IGBT (Si-InsulatedGate Bipolar Transistor); in addition, the first power device and the second power device can also be transistors of other materials. There is no restriction on the specific type and quantity of the two power devices here. As long as the characteristics of the first power device and the second power device are different, they belong to the scope of the hybrid device of this application.
[0028] For example: Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the circuit structure of a hybrid device provided in an embodiment of the present application is a half-bridge structure, each bridge arm includes 1 Si IGBT chip, 1 SiC MOSFET chip and 1 Si FRD chip, wherein the SiCMOSFET has an anti-parallel parasitic diode due to its own structure; Figure 2 The hybrid device in the invention includes four power devices, among which T1 and T2 are Si-IGBT, M1 and M2 are SiC-MOSFET, M1 and M2 can be used as the first power device, and T1 and T2 can be used as the second power device; further, resistors R1, R2, R3 and R4 are the gate resistors of T1, T2, M1 and M2 respectively, and the main purpose of this application is to determine the resistance values of resistors R1, R2, R3 and R4. It should be noted that the power device in this application does not include a diode, that is, in Figure 2 The two diodes connected in parallel with T1 and T2 do not belong to the scope of the power device of this application; in addition, Figure 2 The two diodes connected in parallel with M1 and M2 are integrated in M1 and M2. In this embodiment, Figure 2 The circuit topology diagram includes two first power devices and two second power devices, and the gate resistance can be determined by treating the four power devices as a hybrid device.
[0029] It should also be noted that, ideally, the characteristics of the T1 and T2 chips are the same, and the characteristics of the M1 and M2 chips are the same. However, due to the presence of parasitic parameters in actual circuits, the influence of the difference in parasitic parameters may cause differences in the switching parameters of T1 and T2 and the switching parameters of M1 and M2. In order to optimize the performance of the upper bridge arm (T1 and M1) and the lower bridge arm (T2 and M2) respectively, the resistance values of R1 and R2 and the resistance values of R3 and R4 are not necessarily the same; because one of the upper bridge arm devices T1 and M1 and the lower bridge arm devices T2 and M2 is always in the off state during the double pulse test, the gate resistance of the power device of this bridge arm will not affect the switching characteristics of the other bridge arm. In order to improve the evaluation efficiency of the gate resistance, the gate resistance of the power device of one of the bridge arms can be determined first, and then the gate resistance of the power device of the other bridge arm can be determined.
[0030] In the double pulse test, one of the upper and lower bridge arms of the half-bridge circuit is always in the off state, which is called the companion test device, while the other bridge arm performs a switching action, which is called the device under test. In one embodiment, if the upper bridge arm device (T1 and M1) is the companion test device and the lower bridge arm device is the device under test (T2 and M2), that is, this test determines the gate resistance of T2 and M2.
[0031] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, according to the design model of the hybrid device, a parasitic parameter circuit model of the hybrid device is obtained, which specifically includes the following steps: Step S11 , performing three-dimensional layout design according to the circuit topology diagram of the hybrid device to obtain a design model of the hybrid device.
[0032] It should be noted that Figure 2 It is a circuit topology diagram of a hybrid device. In practical applications, it is necessary to perform three-dimensional layout design on the circuit topology diagram, that is, to perform layout design based on the connection relationship between each component, and to optimize the performance from the aspects of electricity, heat, force, etc. Figure 4 The 3D design model shown.

[0034] Specifically, the three-dimensional design model is imported into finite element simulation software, and the material properties corresponding to each device are set, and the material properties include but are not limited to conductivity, relative dielectric constant, etc.
[0035] Step S13: Grid division is performed according to the positions of the power terminals and signal terminals of the hybrid device and the electrode positions of each power device to obtain a plurality of grids with different functions.
[0036] It should be noted that the power terminals and signal terminals of this embodiment are different from the device electrodes. The power terminals and signal terminals refer to the input and output terminals of the entire hybrid device. Figure 2 The P, U, and N in Figure 4 The DC+, AC, and DC- in the device are the control terminals, input and output terminals of each power device, such as the gate, collector, and emitter of Si-IGBT devices, and the gate, drain, and source of MOSFET devices.
[0037] Specifically, meshing according to the positions of the power terminals and signal terminals of the hybrid device and the electrode positions of each power device is equivalent to meshing according to the connection relationships between conductors and between conductors and chips, so that different meshes are formed on the design model.
[0038] Step S14: setting the current flow direction in each grid according to the actual current direction of the drive circuit and the commutation circuit.
[0039] Specifically, a plurality of current inflow points and outflow points are set according to the required circuit interface and the actual current flow direction in the module in the double pulse test.
[0040] Step S15, running simulation software to obtain a parasitic parameter matrix.
[0041] Specifically, the parasitic parameter matrix includes parasitic parameter types and corresponding parasitic values. The parasitic parameter types include but are not limited to parasitic inductance, parasitic capacitance and parasitic resistance. The parasitic parameter matrix can be solved by running simulation software.
[0042] Step S16: Generate a parasitic parameter circuit model of the hybrid device according to the parasitic parameter matrix.
[0043] It should be noted that the parasitic parameter matrix can be output as an equivalent circuit model and imported into the circuit simulation software to obtain the parasitic parameter circuit model used for circuit simulation, such as Figure 5 shown.
[0044] Step S20: simulating the parasitic parameter circuit model to obtain a plurality of switch parameters corresponding to different gate resistances.
[0045] In one embodiment, if Figure 6 As shown, the parasitic parameter circuit model is simulated to obtain multiple switch parameters corresponding to different gate resistances, which specifically includes the following steps: Step S21: import the parasitic parameter circuit model and the power device model into the circuit simulation software to build a dual pulse simulation circuit.
[0046] Specifically, the parasitic parameter circuit model and the power device model are imported into the circuit simulation software to construct a double-pulse simulation circuit containing the parasitic parameter model, such as Figure 7 shown in Figure 7 In the figure, HPD_HyS (i.e. U7) is the extracted parasitic parameter circuit model, U1 and U2 are the SPICE models of SiC MOSFET chips, which contain junction temperature setting ports; U3 and U4 are the SPICE models of IGBT chips, and U5 and U6 are the SPICE models of FRD chips. In addition, Figure 7 The drive circuit and busbar model of SiC MOSFET and IGBT are also given, where: is the external gate resistance of the MOSFET, is the external gate resistor of the IGBT, L1, C1 and V1 are the load inductance, bus capacitance and DC power supply respectively. During simulation, as control variables, the time TD_ON when the SiC MOSFET is turned on earlier than the IGBT and the time TD_OFF when it is turned off later are set to 0.
[0047] The circuit simulation software of this embodiment includes but is not limited to LTSPICE software, Pspice software and Simplorer software.
[0048] Step S22: setting simulation parameters for the double pulse simulation circuit according to actual test conditions, and simulating the switching process of the hybrid device under different gate resistances.
[0049] Specifically, appropriate simulation parameters are set according to the actual test conditions, and the gate resistance of the IGBT and the gate resistance of the SiCMOSFET are set as variables and , and then simulate to obtain different gate resistances and Switching waveforms of the combined down-mixing device.
[0050] Step S23: extracting a plurality of switch parameters corresponding to different gate resistances.
[0051] In this embodiment, multiple switching parameters include the turn-on current peak of the first power device, the turn-on current peak of the second power device, the turn-off current peak of the first power device, the turn-off current peak of the second power device, the turn-off voltage peak of the hybrid device, the turn-on loss of the first power device, the turn-on loss of the second power device, the turn-off loss of the first power device, the turn-off loss of the second power device, the total turn-on loss of the hybrid device, the total turn-off loss of the hybrid device, and the total switching loss of the hybrid device.
[0052] Step S30: Fit multiple switch parameters to obtain a fitness function and a screening condition function.
[0053] It should be noted that, after extracting key parameters such as voltage and current peaks and switching losses of the hybrid device during the switching process and obtaining a sufficient amount of data, each switching parameter is fitted into a binary polynomial function of the gate resistances Rt and Rm through nonlinear fitting; specifically, the switching parameters of the hybrid device under different combinations of Rm and Rt are obtained through simulation, including SiCMOSFET turn-on current peak, Si IGBT turn-on current peak, SiC MOSFET turn-off current peak, Si IGBT turn-off current peak, module turn-off voltage peak, SiC MOSFET turn-on loss, Si IGBT turn-on loss, SiC MOSFET turn-off loss, Si IGBT turn-off loss and total switching loss of the hybrid device, and these switching parameters are fitted into a binary polynomial function with the gate resistance Rt of the IGBT and the gate resistance Rm of the SiC MOSFET as variables through nonlinear fitting.
[0054] In this embodiment, multiple switch parameters are fitted to obtain a fitness function and a screening condition function, including: multiple switch parameters corresponding to different gate resistances are fitted to obtain a fitting function of each switch parameter, and the specific expression is shown in formula (1): (1) in, represents the gate resistance of the first power device, represents the gate resistance of the second power device, represents the fitting function of the kth switch parameter, k=1,2,…,K; K represents the total number of switch parameters; Represents the coefficients of the polynomial, i and j represent and The power of i is from 0 to , j ranges from 0 to For the kth switch parameter, the coefficients of the corresponding bivariate polynomial fitting function are ( +1)( +1), and The value of is determined by evaluating the goodness of fit of the fitting function, and the value in the fitting function with the highest goodness of fit is selected. and The highest order of and The value of .
[0055] In one embodiment, the goodness of fit can be evaluated by the following indicators: (1) Variance and SSE (Sum of Squared Errors) or MSE (Mean Squared Error)
[0056]
[0057] In the formula, is the value extracted from the simulation, is the predicted value of the fitting function, and N is the number of data points. The smaller the value of SSE and MSE, the better the model fits the data.
[0058] (2) Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE)
[0059] The unit of RMSE is the same as that of the original data. The smaller the RMSE, the smaller the model prediction error and the better the fitting effect.
[0060] (3) R-squared
[0061] in, is the mean of the values extracted from the simulation. The R-squared value ranges from 0 to 1. The closer it is to 1, the better the model fit.
[0062] (4) Adjusted R-squared
[0063] p is the number of independent variables in the model. In the present invention, p=2. The closer the value of adjusted R-squared is to 1, the better the model fits the data, and the complexity of the model is taken into account.
[0064] In this embodiment, the fitting function corresponding to each switch parameter is shown in Table 1: Table 1. Fitting function relationship table
[0065] For the fitting functions in Table 1, there are the following relationships:
[0066]
[0067]
[0068] It can be seen that the fitting function , and It can be obtained by calculating other fitting functions, so this application only needs to calculate the ~ A total of 9 switch parameters can be subjected to nonlinear fitting.
[0069] In one embodiment, a fitting function corresponding to a switching parameter that is a total turn-on loss of a hybrid device, a total turn-off loss of a hybrid device, or a total switching loss of a hybrid device may be used as a fitness function; wherein the fitness function represents a target optimization function.
[0070] In another embodiment, a fitting function corresponding to the switching parameters of the turn-on current peak of the first power device, the turn-on current peak of the second power device, the turn-off current peak of the first power device, the turn-off current peak of the second power device, and the turn-off voltage peak of the hybrid device can be used as a screening condition function.
[0071] Step S40: iteratively optimize the fitness function according to the screening condition function to obtain a target gate resistance corresponding to each power device.
[0072] It should be noted that the gate resistance of each switch parameter is and After the nonlinear fitting function is obtained, this embodiment proposes a multi-objective optimization method to obtain the target gate resistance corresponding to each power device; the specific process of the multi-objective optimization method is: (1) Initializing the population: Randomly generate an initial population consisting of a series of individuals. Each individual in the population is usually represented by binary coding, etc., representing a possible solution in the problem solution space.
[0073] (2) Calculate the screening condition function: Evaluate the fitness of each individual to determine its ability to solve the problem.
[0074] (3) Selection operation: individuals are selected based on their fitness. Individuals with better fitness are more likely to be selected to participate in crossover and reproduction, thereby passing their characteristics to the next generation. In this embodiment, the minimum value of the fitness function (i.e., loss) is sought, that is, individuals with smaller fitness values are selected.
[0075] (4) Crossover operation: The selected individuals exchange part of their codes through the crossover operation to produce new offspring.
[0076] (5) Mutation operation: Randomly change certain genes of an individual so that a more diverse solution space can be generated during the iteration process.
[0077] (6) Generate a new population: Use new individuals generated by selection, crossover and mutation operations to replace individuals with poor fitness in the original population, thereby generating a new generation of population.
[0078] (7) Termination condition judgment: Repeat the above operations and continuously optimize the population through an iterative process until the maximum number of iterations is reached, a solution that meets the requirements is found, or the fitness change is less than a threshold.
[0079] Since the effectiveness of the multi-objective optimization method of this embodiment depends largely on the definition of the fitness function, the design of the selection strategy, and the setting of the termination condition, this embodiment takes the loss of the hybrid device during the switching process (i.e. and ,or ) is defined as the fitness function, and the termination condition is set as the change of the fitness function value in consecutive generations is less than the preset function tolerance to find the minimum value of the fitness function, that is, the minimum value of the switching loss of the hybrid device. In addition, in order to perform multi-objective optimization, the current peak of IGBT and SiC MOSFET during the switching process and the voltage peak during the shutdown process are added as screening conditions to the multi-objective optimization process to ensure the safe operation of the hybrid device, that is, before calculating the fitness of the individual, it is first substituted into the fitting function in Table 1 ~ In the process, determine whether the function value exceeds the safe operating area (SOA) of IGBT and SiC MOSFET. If any parameter exceeds the SOA of the device, the fitness value of the individual is set to infinity, and the individual is unlikely to be selected and participate in the subsequent iteration process. If the function value is within the SOA of the device, the switching loss value of the hybrid device is calculated as the fitness value of the individual. Then, through selection, crossover and mutation and multiple iterations, find the gate resistor that can achieve the minimum switching loss while ensuring the safe operation of IGBT and SiC MOSFET. and value.
[0080] In summary, the present application obtains a parasitic parameter circuit model of the hybrid device according to the design model of the hybrid device; performs simulation based on the parasitic parameter circuit model to obtain multiple switching parameters corresponding to different gate resistances; then fits the multiple switching parameters to obtain a multi-objective optimization fitness function and a screening condition function to ensure the safe operation of the hybrid device; finally, iteratively optimizes the fitness function according to the screening condition function to obtain the target gate resistance corresponding to each power device; therefore, the present application comprehensively considers the influence of different gate resistances on the switching behavior of the power device, so that the obtained gate resistance value can ensure that the hybrid device can minimize the switching loss of the hybrid device under the premise of safe operation.
[0081] In one embodiment, if Figure 8As shown, the fitness function is iteratively optimized according to the screening condition function to obtain the target gate resistance corresponding to each power device, which specifically includes the following steps: (1) Generate an individual population according to a first gate resistor and a second gate resistor; wherein the first gate resistor corresponds to the gate resistor of the first power device, and the second gate resistor corresponds to the gate resistor of the second power device; it should also be noted that when generating the initialized individual population, the individual population can be obtained by random generation.
[0082] (2) According to the screening condition function, the screening condition function value corresponding to each individual in the individual population is calculated; wherein, the number of screening condition functions can be multiple, and the screening condition function value corresponding to each individual can also be multiple. For example, in this embodiment, the fitting function in Table 1 is , , , and All are used as filter function.

If all the screening condition function values are within the corresponding safety threshold range, it is determined that the individual satisfies the constraint condition; if any of the screening condition function values is not within the corresponding safety threshold range, it is determined that the individual does not satisfy the constraint condition.
[0084] (4) The fitness function value corresponding to the individual that meets the constraint conditions is used as the fitness value of the individual, and the fitness value of the individual that does not meet the constraint conditions is set to a preset value; wherein the preset value can be an infinite value or zero, and it mainly plays a filtering role.
[0085] (5) Determine whether the current iteration satisfies the termination criterion.

[0086] (6) If the current iteration satisfies the termination criterion, the first gate resistance and the second gate resistance corresponding to the minimum fitness function value are respectively used as the target gate resistance of the first power device and the target gate resistance of the second power device, and the obtained target gate resistances are simulated and verified.

[0089] (9) The new individual population is iterated repeatedly until the termination criterion is met.
[0090] In one embodiment, in a simulation experiment of a switching process of a hybrid device, the switching process is divided into cases of using the same gate resistor and different gate resistors according to actual needs; specifically, using the same gate means that the same gate resistor is used in both the turn-on simulation process and the turn-off simulation process of the power device, and using different gate resistors means that different gate resistors are used in the turn-on simulation process and the turn-off simulation process of the power device.
[0091] Optionally, if the process of iteratively optimizing the fitness function according to the screening condition function is used as a multi-objective optimization algorithm, when different gate resistances are used in the turn-on process and the turn-off process of the power device, the multi-objective optimization algorithm needs to be run twice to obtain the target gate resistance corresponding to each power device, specifically: the fitting function corresponding to the total turn-on loss of the hybrid device is used as the first fitness function, and the first fitness function is iteratively optimized according to the screening condition function to obtain the turn-on gate resistances corresponding to the first power device and the second power device respectively; the fitting function corresponding to the total turn-off loss of the hybrid device is used as the second fitness function, and the second fitness function is iteratively optimized according to the screening condition function to obtain the turn-off gate resistances corresponding to the first power device and the second power device respectively.
[0092] Optionally, when the same gate resistance is used in the turn-on and turn-off processes of a power device, the target gate resistance corresponding to each power device can be obtained by running the multi-objective optimization algorithm only once. Specifically, the fitting function corresponding to the total switching loss of the hybrid device is used as the third fitness function, and the third fitness function is iteratively optimized according to the screening condition function to obtain the target gate resistances corresponding to the first power device and the second power device respectively.
[0093] like Fig. 9 As shown, when the same driving resistance is used in the switching process, only one operation is required. Figure 8 The multi-objective optimization algorithm shown in the figure. The screening condition function includes the SiC MOSFET turn-on current peak fitting function. , Si IGBT turn-on current peak fitting function , SiC MOSFET turn-off current peak fitting function , Si IGBT turn-off current peak fitting function And the hybrid device off-state voltage peak fitting function , it is necessary to ensure that the above five function values are all within the SOA of Si IGBT or SiCMOSFET chip. At the same time, the fitness function is set to the total switching loss of the hybrid device The optimization algorithm will continue to search for the minimum value of the fitness function until the change in the fitness function value in consecutive generations is less than the preset function tolerance. After selection, crossover and mutation and multiple iterations, the optimized IGBT gate resistance value is output. and SiCMOSFET gate resistance value , and the total switching loss fitting value Eloss_tot of the hybrid device under the optimized gate resistance. This solution can simplify the gate drive circuit, but the obtained total switching loss fitting value Eloss_tot is a local optimal solution.
[0094] like Fig.10 As shown, when different drive resistances are used in the switching process, two runs are required. Figure 8 The gate resistor optimization algorithm shown. When the algorithm is run for the first time, the filter function includes the SiC MOSFET turn-on current peak fitting function And SiIGBT turn-on current peak fitting function , it is necessary to ensure that the above two function values are both within the SOA of the Si IGBT or SiC MOSFET chip. At the same time, the fitness function is set to the total turn-on loss of the hybrid device f10(Rm,Rt). The optimization algorithm will continuously search for the minimum value of the fitness function until the change in the fitness function value in consecutive generations is less than the preset function tolerance. After selection, crossover and mutation, and multiple iterations, the optimized IGBT turn-on gate resistance value Rt_on and SiCMOSFET turn-on gate resistance value Rm_on are output, as well as the total turn-on loss fitting value Eloss_on of the hybrid device under the optimized turn-on gate resistance. When running the algorithm for the second time, the screening condition function includes the SiC MOSFET turn-off current peak fitting function , Si IGBT turn-off current peak fitting function And the hybrid device off-state voltage peak fitting function , it is necessary to ensure that the above three function values are all within the SOA of the Si IGBT or SiC MOSFET chip. At the same time, the fitness function is set to the total turn-off loss f11(Rm, Rt) of the hybrid device. The optimization algorithm will continuously search for the minimum value of the fitness function until the change in the fitness function value in consecutive generations is less than the preset function tolerance. After selection, crossover and mutation, and multiple iterations, the optimized IGBT turn-off gate resistance value Rt_off and SiC MOSFET turn-off gate resistance value Rm_off are output, as well as the total turn-off loss fitting value Eloss_off of the hybrid device under the optimized turn-off gate resistance. At the same time, the total switching loss fitting value Eloss_tot=Eloss_on+Eloss_off of the hybrid device can also be obtained. The total switching loss fitting value Eloss_tot obtained by this scheme is the global optimal solution, but the gate drive circuit is more complicated.
[0095] like Fig.11 As shown, taking the IGBT power device as an example, when different gate resistors are used in the turn-on process and the turn-off process, the target gate resistance obtained includes the turn-on gate resistance Rt_on and the turn-off gate resistance Rt_off; in the actual driving circuit, a turn-on diode Dt_on and a turn-off diode Dt_off need to be connected in series with the turn-on gate resistance Rt_on and the turn-off gate resistance Rt_off, respectively. Since the current flows into the gate of the device during the turn-on process, and the direction of the gate current during the turn-off process is opposite, that is, it flows out from the gate of the device, assuming that the current flows from left to right during the turn-on process, since the diode is unidirectionally conductive, the turn-on diode Dt_on is turned on and the turn-off diode Dt_off is turned off, thereby connecting the turn-on gate resistance Rt_on to the gate of the power device; on the contrary, for the turn-off process, the current flows from the right to the left, then the turn-off diode Dt_off is turned on and the turn-on diode Dt_on is turned off, thereby connecting the turn-off gate resistance Rt_off to the gate of the power device. The resistance values of the on-gate resistor Rt_on and the off-gate resistor Rt_off in this embodiment are obtained by Fig.10 Obtained in the manner shown.
[0096] In order to simplify the driving circuit, this embodiment adopts Fig. 9 The switching process shown is experimentally verified using the same gate resistance method. Figure 8 The multi-objective optimization results of the gate resistance are as follows: Fig.12 As shown, in Fig.12In the experiment, when the number of iterations reaches about 90, the change of the fitness function value in consecutive generations is less than the preset function tolerance. The multi-objective optimization algorithm reaches the termination condition and outputs the result: the optimized SiC MOSFET gate resistance value is 17.9586 Ω, the IGBT gate resistance value is 1.5 Ω, and the total switching loss of the hybrid device is 16.414 mJ under this gate resistance.
[0097] Furthermore, the optimized target gate resistance value is substituted into the simulation circuit, and the switching waveform is as follows: Fig.13 As shown; among them, Fig.13 13a is the simulated turn-on waveform, and 13b is the simulated turn-off waveform. The key switching parameters are extracted. The peak values of IGBT current IC and SiC MOSFET current ID during the turn-on process are 439.25591 A and 144.67885 A respectively. The peak values of IC and ID during the turn-off process are 251.17457 A and 90.857289 A respectively. The turn-off voltage peak value is 737.07632 V. The above parameters are all within the chip safe operating area. The total loss simulation value of the switching process during the hybrid period is 14.217 mJ, which is lower than the fitting value. This is attributed to the accuracy difference of the fitting model under different gate resistances. However, the proposed optimization strategy can obviously control the voltage and current of the switching process within a safe range and reduce the switching loss.
[0098] Furthermore, under the optimized target gate resistance, the switching wave measurement results of the Si IGBT-SiC MOSFET hybrid device are as follows: Fig.14 As shown, Fig.14 14a is the measured turn-on waveform, and 14b is the measured turn-off waveform. During the turn-on process, the peak values of the IGBT current IC and the SiC MOSFET current ID are 473 A and 191 A respectively, and the peak values of the turn-off process IC and ID are 265A and 101A respectively, and the turn-off voltage peak value is 761V. The above parameters are all within the chip safe operating area. Under the optimized gate resistance, the total switching loss of the Si / SiC hybrid power device is 17.29 mJ. It can be seen that the measured results are similar to the simulation output results and have a high consistency. Therefore, the gate resistance determination method proposed in this application can effectively realize the multi-objective optimization of the gate resistance of the Si IGBT-SiC MOSFET hybrid device, shorten the development cycle, and save R&D costs.
[0099] in, Fig.13 and Fig.14 V F express Figure 2 The voltage between point U and point N, I HyS express Figure 2 The current that flows from point U through devices T2 and M2 and flows out from point N is the current IC and current I D sum.
[0100] In summary, the technical solution provided by this application has at least the following beneficial effects: 1. Multi-objective optimization of the gate resistance of Si IGBT-SiC MOSFET hybrid devices can be achieved: Si IGBT-SiCMOSFET hybrid devices involve both IGBT and SiC MOSFET, and the gate resistance of both will affect the switching behavior of the hybrid device. Inappropriate gate resistance will not only increase the switching loss of the hybrid device and reduce its cost performance, but may even cause the voltage and current peaks of the device to exceed the safe working area of the IGBT and SiC MOSFET chips during the switching process, causing device failure. The traditional method of selecting the gate resistance value through physical testing often obtains a local optimal solution, and it is difficult to comprehensively consider the influence of the gate resistance on multiple parameters; however, the hybrid device gate resistance determination method proposed in this application comprehensively considers the influence of the IGBT gate resistance and the SiC MOSFET gate resistance on the device switching behavior. The obtained gate resistance value can minimize the switching loss of the hybrid device under the premise of ensuring that the voltage and current peaks of the hybrid device are within the safe working area of the IGBT and SiC MOSFET chips.
[0101] 2. Lower cost and shorter cycle: When selecting the gate resistor through the traditional physical test method, the test volume is large and the time is long because the two variables of IGBT gate resistance and SiC MOSFET gate resistance need to be considered at the same time. In the actual dynamic test process, since the current overshoot that the power chip can withstand is certain, unreasonable gate resistance value will cause overcurrent failure of the power chip and increase the development cost. When the gate resistor needs to be integrated into the power module, once the physical test result is not suitable, the power module needs to be re-prepared. For power modules with longer production time and higher material cost, this method will cause a significant increase in development cycle and cost. The gate resistance determination method proposed in this application obtains the fitting function of the switching parameters about the gate resistance by building a simulation circuit considering the parasitic parameters of the hybrid device and performing multi-objective optimization through genetic algorithm, thereby obtaining the optimized gate resistance value. Compared with physical testing, the method of this application mainly relies on simulation, reduces a large number of physical preparation and testing links, and can even realize the evaluation of the gate resistance value in the hybrid device design stage, effectively shortening the development cycle and reducing R&D costs.
[0102] 3. Wide application scope: In addition to being applicable to Si IGBT-SiC MOSFET hybrid devices, the gate resistor selection method proposed in this application is also applicable to the parallel connection of Si IGBT and SiC MOSFET discrete devices, the full Si IGBT solution, and the full SiC MOSFET solution. For example, for Si IGBT modules, its parasitic parameter matrix can also be extracted and exported as a circuit model for electrical simulation, and the physical switch parameters under different gate resistances can be extracted and nonlinear fitting can be performed. Finally, multi-objective optimization is performed. Because it has only one variable, the simulation calculation amount is smaller and the time is shorter. At the same time, the fitting function complexity is lower, and the optimization algorithm calculation amount is reduced, so it is easier to determine the gate resistance.
