[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solution of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the specific embodiments of the present application and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0023] The technical terms involved in this application are as follows:

[0024] The idea of ​​the present application is to design an automatic and universal active short-circuit protection circuit in response to the current situation in which active short-circuit is realized by application software in the prior art with large delay and low efficiency. The circuit uses simple hardware logic gates to realize the active short-circuit state, thereby improving the response speed and reliability.

[0025] The technical solutions provided by various embodiments of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0026] The present application embodiment provides an active short circuit protection circuit, such as Figure 1 As shown, a block diagram 100 of an active short-circuit protection circuit in an embodiment of the present application is provided. The protection circuit comprises: a motor controller 110, a lower bridge arm fault state confirmation module 120 and an upper bridge arm fault state confirmation module 130, wherein a controller fault detection module is provided in the motor controller, and the motor controller is used to confirm at least one fault module of the lower bridge arm fault state confirmation module and the upper bridge arm fault state confirmation module according to the triggered fault type, and according to the fault module, control the motor 140 connected to the motor controller to enter the corresponding safety mode.

[0027] like Figure 3As shown, the fault types include upper bridge arm failure and failure of the power module, upper bridge arm undervoltage failure of the power module, lower bridge arm failure and failure of the power module, lower bridge arm undervoltage failure of the power module, MCU failure and overvoltage failure. When upper and lower bridge arm related faults occur, it is determined whether to enter the active short-circuit safety mode based on the vehicle speed at the time of the fault. If the speed is in the mode where active short-circuit is required, the three-phase short-circuit state of the lower bridge arm is entered first. If the power module of the lower bridge arm fails, it automatically switches to the three-phase active short-circuit state of the upper bridge arm. In the process of switching between the upper and lower bridge arms, a dead zone is added to prevent the upper and lower bridge arms from passing through. If both the upper and lower bridge arms are in a faulty state, the six-phase open circuit state is entered.

[0028] It can be understood that the fault handling of the active protection circuit meets the functional safety requirements of new energy vehicles at the moment of motor driver failure, does not require software participation, and has good real-time and reliability.

[0029] In some embodiments, the lower bridge arm fault status confirmation module includes a first OR logic gate U1, a second OR logic gate U2, a third OR logic gate U3, a first NAND logic gate A1 and a second NAND logic gate A2, the outputs of the first OR logic gate U1 and the second OR logic gate U2 are respectively connected to the inputs of the first NAND logic gate A1, the output of the first NAND logic gate A1 is connected to the second input of the third OR logic gate U3, the output of the third OR logic gate U3 is connected to the first input of the second NAND logic gate A2, the first inputs of the first OR logic gate U1, the second OR logic gate U2 and the third OR logic gate U3 are respectively connected to the first fault pin F_DS_BOT, the second fault pin and the third fault pin F_UN_BOT, and the second inputs of the first OR logic gate U1 and the second OR logic gate U2 are connected to the fourth fault pin SPD_SW.

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, F_DS_BOT is the lower bridge arm warranty and fault pin, F_UN_BOT is the lower bridge arm undervoltage fault pin, SPD_SW is the speed input pin, and the third fault pin of the third OR logic gate U3 includes two fault types, MCU fault ACTIVE SHORT and overvoltage fault F_HV_OV.

[0031] In some embodiments, the upper bridge arm fault status confirmation module includes a fourth OR logic gate U4, a fifth OR logic gate U5, a first AND logic gate B1 and a second AND logic gate B2, the outputs of the fourth OR logic gate U4 and the fifth OR logic gate U5 are respectively connected to the input of the first AND logic gate B1, the outputs of the first AND logic gate B1 are respectively connected to the second input of the second AND logic gate B2 and the second input of the second NAND logic gate A2, the first inputs of the fourth OR logic gate U4 and the fifth OR logic gate U5 are respectively connected to the fifth fault pin F_DS_TOP and the sixth fault pin F_UV_TOP, the second inputs of the fourth OR logic gate U4 and the fifth OR logic gate U5 are connected to the fourth fault pin SPD_SW, and the first input of the second AND logic gate B2 is connected to the output of the first NAND logic gate A1.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, F_DS_TOP is the upper arm protection and fault pin, and F_UN_TOP is the upper arm undervoltage fault pin.

[0033] It can be understood that, through the operation of logic gates in the lower bridge arm fault state confirmation module and the upper bridge arm fault state confirmation module, six types of faults and three states can be combined to implement the execution of the fault logic.

[0034] In some embodiments, the protection circuit also includes a first buffer D1 and a second buffer D2, and the outputs of the second NAND logic gate A2 and the second AND logic gate B2 are respectively connected to the corresponding pins (Force_Uppers_ON, Force_Lowers_ON) of the first buffer D1, the corresponding pins (Force_Lowers_ON, Force_Uppers_ON) of the second buffer D2, and the corresponding pins of the third buffer D3.

[0035] The protection circuit also includes a trigger T1, and the outputs of the second NAND logic gate A2 and the second AND logic gate B2 are respectively connected to the corresponding pins of the trigger T1. The trigger T1 is used to add a dead zone during the switching process of the upper and lower bridge arms to prevent the upper and lower bridge arms from being directly connected.

[0036] In some embodiments, the protection circuit further includes a third AND logic gate B3, a third NAND logic gate A3 and a third buffer D3, wherein the two input ends of the third AND logic gate B3 are respectively connected to the corresponding pins (3, 10) of the trigger, the output end of the third AND logic gate B3 is connected to the first input of the third NAND logic gate A3, and the output of the third NAND logic gate A3 is connected to the corresponding pins (1, 19) of the third buffer D3. The third AND logic gate B3 and the third NAND logic gate A3 are used to enable the active protection circuit.

[0037] It can be understood that the active short-circuit protection circuit of the present disclosure is composed of five OR gates, three AND gates, three NAND gates, three buffers and a trigger. Through the operation of the logic gate, six faults and three states are combined, and the dead zone circuit of the trigger is matched to ensure the direct connection problem of the upper and lower bridge arms during the switching process of the upper and lower bridge arms.

[0038] The disclosed embodiment also provides an active short-circuit protection method, including the active short-circuit protection circuit as described above, the method comprising: a motor controller monitors a lower bridge arm combined fault state and an upper bridge arm combined fault state of a power module, wherein the lower bridge arm combined fault includes a lower bridge arm protection withdrawal and fault and a lower bridge arm undervoltage fault, and the upper bridge arm combined fault includes an upper bridge arm protection withdrawal and fault and an upper bridge arm undervoltage fault; when one of the lower bridge arm protection withdrawal and fault and the lower bridge arm undervoltage fault is at a low level, the first safety mode entered by the motor is confirmed according to the motor speed and the upper bridge arm fault state at the moment of the fault; when one of the upper bridge arm protection withdrawal and fault and the upper bridge arm undervoltage fault is at a low level, the second safety mode entered by the motor is confirmed according to the motor speed and the lower bridge arm fault state at the moment of the fault.

[0039] The first safety mode includes a three-phase open circuit safety mode and an upper bridge arm active short circuit safety mode, and the second safety mode includes a three-phase open circuit safety mode and a lower bridge arm active short circuit safety mode; when one of the lower bridge arm withdrawal and fault and the lower bridge arm undervoltage fault is a low level, according to the motor speed and the upper bridge arm fault state at the time of the fault, confirming that the motor enters the first safety mode, including: when the motor speed exceeds the threshold and the upper bridge arm has no fault, the motor enters the upper bridge arm active short circuit safety mode; when the motor speed exceeds the threshold and the upper bridge arm fails, the motor enters the three-phase open circuit safety mode; when one of the upper bridge arm withdrawal and fault and the upper bridge arm undervoltage fault is a low level, according to the motor speed and the lower bridge arm fault state at the time of the fault, confirming that the motor enters the second safety mode, including: when the motor speed exceeds the threshold and the lower bridge arm has no fault, the motor enters the lower bridge arm active short circuit safety mode; when the motor speed exceeds the threshold and the lower bridge arm fails, the motor enters the three-phase open circuit safety mode.

[0040] The active short-circuit protection method also includes: the motor controller monitors MCU faults and overvoltage faults; when one of the MCU faults and the overvoltage faults is at a low level: if the lower bridge arm has no faults, the motor enters the lower bridge arm active short-circuit safety mode; if the lower bridge arm fails and the upper bridge arm fails at the same time, the motor enters the three-phase open circuit safety mode; if the lower bridge arm fails and the upper bridge arm has no faults, the motor enters the upper bridge arm active short-circuit safety mode.

[0041] It can be understood that the motor controller monitors relevant faults in real time, and combines the power module's withdrawal and failure, the power module's undervoltage fault, the MCU and overvoltage fault into six fault combinations. At the same time, it determines whether to enter the active short-circuit safety mode based on the vehicle speed at the time of the fault. If the speed is in the mode that requires active short-circuit, it will first enter the three-phase short-circuit state of the lower bridge arm. If the power module of the lower bridge arm fails, it will automatically switch to the three-phase active short-circuit state of the upper bridge arm. At the same time, a dead zone is added during the switching process of the upper and lower bridge arms to prevent the upper and lower bridge arms from passing through. If both the upper and lower bridge arms are in a faulty state, the six-phase open circuit state is entered. The fault logic meets the functional safety requirements of new energy vehicles at the time of motor driver failure, does not require software participation, and has a high degree of real-time and reliability.
