It is often used as a switching device in the field of electronic circuits and controls the circuit by applying voltage to the gate. As a key component in the field of power electronics, the performance test of IGBT is crucial for ensuring the reliability and stability of the entire power electronic system. At present, the double-pulse test method is usually adopted to conduct dynamic performance tests on IGBT modules to evaluate their switching characteristics under actual working conditions. The double-pulse signal makes the IGBT alternate between the on and off states, making it easier to simulate the voltage and current changes of the IGBT during application.

[0019] The DSP signal, that is, the signal in digital signal processing, refers to the signal that has been digitized. The DSP signal board is a hardware platform specifically used for processing digital signals, converting analog signals into digital signals, and is mainly used to generate digital signals so that the driving IC can drive the module unit 200.
[0020] The driving IC has three output terminals, namely the Vc output terminal, the Vg output terminal, and the Ve output terminal. The driving IC is used to control the digital signal generated by the DSP signal board, convert the digital signal into the driving signal required by the module unit 200, so that it can operate normally.

[0033] The contact 6 of the first switch unit 300 is connected to the emitter of the IGBT tube Q2. The contact 18 of the first switch unit 300 is vacant. The contact 19 of the first switch unit 300 is connected to the gate of the IGBT tube Q2.
[0034] The contact 7 of the first switch unit 300 is connected to the emitter of the IGBT tube Q1. The contact 20 of the first switch unit 300 is connected to the gate of the IGBT tube Q1. The contact 21 of the first switch unit 300 is vacant.
[0035] The collector, gate, and emitter of the IGBT under test and the positive and negative electrodes of the diode FRD under test are respectively switchably connected through multiple double-pole switches, so that the desired IGBT under test and the diode FRD under test can be directly switched. Among them, the contacts 6 and 7 of the first switch unit 300 are used to short-circuit and protect another IGBT during detection. Specifically, taking the test of IGBT Q1 and diode FRD2 as an example, the switch settings are the same as Figure 2 the positions shown. In the first switch unit 300, contact 1 is connected to contact 9, contact 2 is connected to contact 11, contact 3 is connected to contact 13, contact 4 is connected to contact 15, contact 5 is connected to contact 17, contact 6 is connected to contact 19, contact 7 is connected to contact 21, and at the same time, contact 1 of the second switch unit 400 is connected to contact 3. At this time, the sampling points C, G, and E are respectively connected to the collector, gate, and emitter of the IGBT Q1, and the sampling points F and FE are respectively connected to the positive and negative electrodes of FRD2. By connecting contact 6 and contact 19 in the first switch unit 300 to short-circuit the gate and emitter of IGBT Q2, IGBT Q2 is always turned off to ensure that it will not be mis-conducted. The voltages at each point are obtained through the sampling points C, G, E, F, and FE, and at the same time, an external current sensor is used to obtain the currents of IGBT Q1 and diode FRD2. After applying the driving power supply VCC voltage, a driving signal is given through the DSP signal board, and the driving IC drives IGBT Q1 to open and close, so that the voltage and current waveforms of IGBT Q1 and diode FRD2 can be obtained simultaneously for analysis. It can be imagined that the voltage and current waveforms are collected by a data collector.
[0036] When testing the IGBT transistor Q2 and the diode FRD1, only need to connect contact 1 and contact 8 in the first switch unit 300, connect contact 2 and contact 10 in the first switch unit 300, connect contact 3 and contact 12 in the first switch unit 300, connect contact 4 and contact 14 in the first switch unit 300, connect contact 5 and contact 16 in the first switch unit 300, connect contact 6 and contact 18 in the first switch unit 300, connect contact 7 and contact 20 in the first switch unit 300, and at the same time connect contact 1 and contact 2 in the second switch unit 400. At this time, the sampling points C, G, and E are respectively connected to the collector, gate, and emitter of the IGBT transistor Q2, and the sampling points F and FE are respectively connected to the positive and negative electrodes of the FRD1, so that different IGBT transistors and diodes can be detected by directly switching the switches. The position of the interface and the DSP drive do not need to be changed. After applying the driving power supply VCC voltage, a driving signal is given through the DSP signal board, and the driving IC drives the IGBT transistor Q2 to open and close, so that the voltage and current waveforms of the IGBT transistor Q2 and the diode FRD1 can be obtained simultaneously for analysis. During the test process, the DSP signal does not need to be changed, the control method is simple, there is no error in the output of the bridge arm signal, and there is only one driving IC without multi-channel signal interference. The interface position does not need to be changed, avoiding the error of the collected signal caused by manual operation. The electronic components that are not tested are short-circuited to protect against parasitic conduction.

The gate and emitter of the IGBT tube Q2 on the lower bridge are short-circuited through the connection between contact 6 and contact 19 in the first switch unit 300. The gate and emitter of the IGBT tube Q3 on the upper bridge are short-circuited through the connection between contact 5 and contact 27 in the third switch unit 600. The gate and emitter of the IGBT tube Q5 on the upper bridge are short-circuited through the connection between contact 6 and contact 30 in the third switch unit 600. The gate and emitter of the IGBT tube Q4 on the lower bridge are short-circuited through the connection between contact 11 and contact 45 in the third switch unit 600. The gate and emitter of the IGBT tube Q6 on the lower bridge are short-circuited through the connection between contact 12 and contact 48 in the third switch unit 600. In this way, the gates and emitters of all IGBT tubes except the tested IGBT tubes are short-circuited and protected to ensure that there will be no mis-conduction. The voltages at each point are obtained through the sampling points C, G, E, F, and FE. At the same time, an external current sensor is used to obtain the currents of the IGBT tube Q1 and the diode FRD2. After applying the driving power supply VCC voltage, a driving signal is given through the DSP signal board, and the driving IC drives the IGBT tube Q1 to open and close, so that the voltage and current waveforms of the IGBT tube Q1 and the diode FRD2 can be obtained simultaneously for analysis.
[0055] When measuring the IGBT Q3 on the upper bridge and the diode FRD4 on the lower bridge of the second phase, only need to connect contact 1 and contact 14 in the third switch unit 600, connect contact 2 and contact 17 in the third switch unit 600, connect contact 3 and contact 20 in the third switch unit 600, connect contact 4 and contact 23 in the third switch unit 600, connect contact 5 and contact 26 in the third switch unit 600, connect contact 6 and contact 29 in the third switch unit 600, connect contact 7 and contact 32 in the third switch unit 600, connect contact 8 and contact 35 in the third switch unit 600, connect contact 9 and contact 38 in the third switch unit 600, connect contact 10 and contact 41 in the third switch unit 600, connect contact 11 and contact 44 in the third switch unit 600, connect contact 12 and contact 47 in the third switch unit 600, and at the same time connect contact 1 and contact 3 in the fourth switch unit 700. At this time, the sampling points C, G, and E are respectively connected to the collector, gate, and emitter of the IGBT Q3, and the sampling points F and FE are respectively connected to the positive and negative electrodes of the FRD4, so that different IGBTs and diodes can be detected by directly switching the switches.
[0056] Compared with the prior art, the dual-pulse test circuit provided by the present invention realizes the switching of the IGBT to be measured by adding the first switch unit 300 between the test unit 100 and the module unit 200. Specifically, the first switch unit 300 includes seven double-pole switches, and the seven double-pole switches are respectively connected to the electrodes of multiple IGBTs in the module unit 200. The collector, gate, emitter of the IGBT to be measured and the positive and negative electrodes of the diode FRD to be measured can be respectively switched and connected through the multiple double-pole switches, so that the IGBT to be measured and the diode FRD to be measured that are desired can be directly switched. In this way, different IGBTs and diodes can be detected by directly switching the switches. The position of the interface and the DSP drive do not need to be changed, avoiding repeated wiring. Only one drive IC is required, there is no interference of multiple signals, the position of the interface does not need to be changed, and the error of the collected signal caused by manual operation is avoided. In addition, in the first switch unit 300, two double-pole switches will short-circuit the IGBTs that are not detected, so that the IGBTs that are not detected are short-circuit protected to ensure that they will not be mis-conducted and parasitic conduction is avoided. At the same time, which IGBT is short-circuit protected can also be quickly switched through the double-pole switch. For the three-phase bridge test structure, the third switch unit 600 and the fourth switch unit 700 are added to achieve fast switching. The third switch unit 600 includes twelve triple switches (L1~L12). The upper bridge or the lower bridge is switched through the multiple double-pole switches of the first switch unit 300, and one IGBT tube in the upper bridge or the lower bridge is connected through the multiple triple switches of the third switch unit 600, avoiding repeated wiring.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions or improvements within the spirit of the present invention are all covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
