Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of inverter circuits, and specifically relates to a double pulse and short circuit test method for an NPC T-type three-level circuit and a double pulse and short circuit test device for an NPC T-type three-level circuit. Background Art
[0002] The NPC T-type three-level circuit is a multi-level inverter topology. Figure 1 As shown, the T-type three-level circuit consists of two half-bridge inverter units and a neutral point (usually coupled by capacitors), forming a "T"-shaped circuit topology. Each half-bridge contains two switching elements (such as IGBTs) and corresponding freewheeling diodes, and the neutral point capacitor is used for voltage support and level switching. The working principle of the T-type three-level inverter circuit is based on the resonance principle and the capacitor charging and discharging principle. By controlling the switching state of the two half-bridges, the T-type three-level circuit can generate a five-level line voltage waveform at the load end. The coordination of the capacitor charging and discharging process and the switching state enables the output voltage to smoothly transition between three different levels, reducing the harmonic content caused by the step waveform in the traditional two-level inverter. In the prior art, the IGBT in the NPC T-type three-level is tested for double pulses and short circuits, and the required data needs to be obtained by testing separately, which has low test efficiency; the inductor position and the position to be shorted in the short-circuit test need to be manually changed, so the test process steps are cumbersome, the integration is low, and the reliability is low.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0049] Terminology explanation:
[0050] NPC T-type three-level circuit: NPC (Neutral Point Clamped) is a neutral point clamped circuit; that is, a T-shaped NPC circuit.
[0051] The present application proposes a double pulse and short circuit test method for an NPC T-type three-level circuit and a double pulse and short circuit test device for an NPC T-type three-level circuit.
[0052] First, as Figure 2 As shown, a double pulse and short circuit test method for an NPC T-type three-level circuit is provided, which is used to perform a half-bus voltage double pulse and short circuit test on a first IGBT tube Q1 in a test circuit of the NPC T-type three-level circuit, and includes the following steps:
[0053] A third selection device S3 is arranged in parallel at both ends of the third IGBT tube Q3 and the fourth IGBT tube Q4 connected sequentially in the test circuit of the NPC T-type three-level circuit, for selecting the half-bus voltage double pulse test or the short circuit test for the first IGBT tube Q1; the third selection device S3 can be implemented in a variety of ways, for example, by an active device or a switch circuit; whether it is an active device or a switch circuit, it can be controlled by the control circuit so that the third selection device S3 is in a conducting, short-circuited or disconnected state, so as to achieve the state of double pulse test, short circuit test or disconnection for the first IGBT tube Q1.
[0054] When the third selection device S3 is set to the half bus voltage double pulse test, a double pulse signal is sent to the gate of the first IGBT tube Q1, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the second IGBT tube Q2, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the third IGBT tube Q3, and a high level signal is sent to the gate of the fourth IGBT tube Q4; at this time, the voltage applied between the gate and source of the first IGBT tube Q1 is half the bus voltage, that is, Figure 2 The voltage between the DC+ and 0 terminals described in the figure. At this time, the current flows as follows: DC+ terminal - first IGBT tube Q1 - third selection device S3 - 0 terminal. Since the gate of the fourth IGBT tube Q4 is at a high level and is normally open, and the diode connected in parallel with the third IGBT tube Q3 is used to complete the freewheeling circuit, the reverse recovery parameter of the diode FRD (Fast Recover Diode) connected in parallel with the third IGBT tube Q3 can also be tested at this time.
[0055] When the third selection device S3 is set to the half bus voltage short circuit test, a single pulse signal is sent to the gate of the first IGBT tube Q1, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the second IGBT tube Q2, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the third IGBT tube Q3, and a high level signal is sent to the gate of the fourth IGBT tube Q4. At this time, the connection of the third selection device S3 should be connected with a device with strong overcurrent capacity, and wire-type devices with poor current carrying capacity should not be used. At this time, the voltage is added to: DC+ terminal--0 terminal.
[0056] Second, as Figure 2 As shown, a double pulse and short circuit test method for an NPC T-type three-level circuit is also provided, which is used to perform a half-bus voltage double pulse and short circuit test on the second IGBT tube Q2 in the test circuit of the NPC T-type three-level circuit, and includes the following steps:
[0057] A third selection device S3 is arranged in parallel at both ends of the third IGBT tube Q3 and the fourth IGBT tube Q4 connected sequentially in the test circuit of the NPC T-type three-level circuit, for selecting the half-bus voltage double pulse test or the short circuit test for the second IGBT tube Q2; the third selection device S3 can be implemented in a variety of ways, for example, by an active device or a switch circuit; whether it is an active device or a switch circuit, it can be controlled by the control circuit so that the third selection device S3 is in a conducting, short-circuited or disconnected state, so as to achieve the state of double pulse test, short circuit test or disconnection for the second IGBT tube Q2.
[0058] When the third selection device S3 is set to the half bus voltage double pulse test, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the first IGBT tube Q1, a double pulse signal is sent to the gate of the second IGBT tube Q2, a high level signal is sent to the gate of the third IGBT tube Q3, and a low level signal is sent to the gate of the fourth IGBT tube Q4; at this time, the voltage applied between the gate and source of the second IGBT tube Q2 is half the bus voltage, that is, Figure 2 The voltage between the 0 terminal and DC- in the above description. At this time, the current flows as follows: 0 terminal--the third selection terminal S3--the second IGBT tube Q2--the DC- terminal. Since the gate of the third IGBT tube Q3 is at a high level and is normally open at this time, and the diode connected in parallel with the fourth IGBT tube Q4 is used to complete the freewheeling circuit, the reverse recovery parameter of the diode FRD (Fast Recover Diode) connected in parallel with the fourth IGBT tube Q4 can also be tested at this time.
[0059] When the third selection device S3 is set to the half bus voltage short circuit test, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the first IGBT tube Q1, a single pulse signal is sent to the gate of the second IGBT tube Q2, a high level signal is sent to the gate of the third IGBT tube Q3, and a low level signal is sent to the gate of the fourth IGBT tube Q4. At this time, the connection of the third selection device S3 should be connected with a device with strong overcurrent capacity, and wire-type devices with poor current carrying capacity should not be used. At this time, the voltage is applied to: 0 terminal--DC-terminal.
[0060] Thirdly, Figure 3 As shown, a double pulse and short circuit test method for an NPC T-type three-level circuit is also provided, which is used to perform a half-bus voltage double pulse and short circuit test on the third IGBT tube Q3 in the test circuit of the NPC T-type three-level circuit, and includes the following steps:
[0061] A first selection device S1 is arranged in parallel at both ends of the first IGBT tube Q1 in the test circuit of the NPC T-type three-level circuit, for selecting the half-bus voltage double pulse test or the short circuit test for the third IGBT tube Q3; the first selection device S1 can be implemented in a variety of ways, for example, by an active device or a switch circuit; whether it is an active device or a switch circuit, it can be controlled by a control circuit so that the first selection device S1 is in an on, short circuit or off state, so as to achieve a double pulse test, a short circuit test or a disconnected state for the third IGBT tube Q3.
[0062] When the first selection device S1 is set to the half bus voltage double pulse test, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the first IGBT tube Q1, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the second IGBT tube Q2, a double pulse signal is sent to the gate of the third IGBT tube Q3, and a high level signal is sent to the gate of the fourth IGBT tube Q4; at this time, the voltage applied between the gate and the source of the third IGBT tube Q3 is half the bus voltage, that is, Figure 3 The voltage between the DC+ and 0 terminals described in the figure. At this time, the current flows as follows: DC+ terminal - first selection device S1 - third IGBT tube Q3 - fourth IGBT tube Q4 - 0 terminal. Since the gate of the fourth IGBT tube Q4 is at a high level and is normally open, a pulse is applied to the third IGBT tube Q3, and the diode connected in parallel with the first IGBT tube Q1 is used to complete the freewheeling circuit. Therefore, the reverse recovery parameter of the diode FRD (Fast Recover Diode) connected in parallel with the first IGBT tube Q1 can also be tested at this time.
[0063] When the first selection device S1 is set to the half bus voltage short circuit test, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the first IGBT tube Q1, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the second IGBT tube Q2, a single pulse signal is sent to the gate of the third IGBT tube Q3, and a high level signal is sent to the gate of the fourth IGBT tube Q4. At this time, the connection of the first selection device S1 should be connected with a device with strong overcurrent capacity, and a device with poor current carrying capacity of a wire type should not be used. At this time, the voltage is applied to: DC+ terminal--0 terminal.
[0064] Fourthly, Figure 4 As shown, a double pulse and short circuit test method for an NPC T-type three-level circuit is also provided, which is used to perform a half-bus voltage double pulse and short circuit test on the fourth IGBT tube Q4 in the test circuit of the NPC T-type three-level circuit, including the following steps:
[0065] A second selection device S2 is arranged in parallel at both ends of the second IGBT tube Q2 in the test circuit of the NPC T-type three-level circuit, for selecting the half-bus voltage double pulse test or the short circuit test for the second IGBT tube Q2; the second selection device S2 can be implemented in a variety of ways, for example, by an active device or a switch circuit; whether it is an active device or a switch circuit, it can be controlled by the control circuit so that the second selection device S2 is in a conducting, short-circuited or disconnected state, so as to achieve the double pulse test, short-circuit test or disconnected state for the fourth IGBT tube Q4.
[0066] When the second selection device S2 is set to the half bus voltage double pulse test, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the first IGBT tube Q1, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the second IGBT tube Q2, a high level signal is sent to the gate of the third IGBT tube Q3, and a double pulse signal is sent to the gate of the fourth IGBT tube Q4; at this time, the voltage applied between the gate and the source of the fourth IGBT tube Q4 is half the bus voltage, that is, Figure 4 The voltage between the 0 terminal and the DC- terminal described in . At this time, the current flow is: 0 terminal--the fourth IGBT tube Q4--the third IGBT tube Q3--the second selection device S2--the DC- terminal. Since the gate of the third IGBT tube Q3 is at a high level and is normally open at this time, a pulse is applied to the fourth IGBT tube Q4, and the diode connected in parallel with the second IGBT tube Q2 is used to complete the freewheeling circuit. Therefore, the reverse recovery parameter of the diode FRD (Fast Recover Diode) connected in parallel with the second IGBT tube Q2 can also be tested at this time.
[0067] When the second selection device S2 is set to half bus voltage short circuit test, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the first IGBT tube Q1, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the second IGBT tube Q2, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the third IGBT tube Q3, and a double pulse signal is sent to the gate of the fourth IGBT tube Q4. At this time, the connection of the second selection device S2 should be connected with a device with strong overcurrent capacity, and a device with poor current carrying capacity of the wire type should not be used. At this time, the voltage is applied to: 0 terminal--DC-terminal.
[0068] Fifthly, Figure 4 As shown, a double pulse and short circuit test method for an NPC T-type three-level circuit is also provided, which is used to perform a full bus voltage double pulse and short circuit test on the first IGBT tube Q1 in the NPC T-type three-level circuit, comprising the following steps:
[0069] A second selection device S2 is arranged in parallel at both ends of the second IGBT tube Q2 in the test circuit of the NPC T-type three-level circuit, for selecting the first IGBT tube Q1 to be subjected to a full bus voltage double pulse test or a short circuit test; the second selection device S2 can be implemented in a variety of ways, for example, by an active device or a switch circuit; both active devices and switch circuits can be controlled by a control circuit so that the second selection device S2 is in a conducting or short circuit state, thereby achieving full bus voltage double pulse and short circuit tests on the first IGBT tube Q1.
[0070] When the second selection device S2 is set to the full bus voltage double pulse test, a double pulse signal is sent to the gate of the first IGBT tube Q1, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the second IGBT tube Q2, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the third IGBT tube Q3, and a low level signal is sent to the gate of the fourth IGBT tube Q4; at this time, the current direction is: DC+ end--first IGBT tube Q1--second selection device S2--DC-end; obviously, the full bus voltage is applied between the gate and source of the first IGBT tube Q1. In actual application, if "abnormal blocking wave" occurs, that is, the horizontal tube (the third IGBT tube Q3 and the fourth IGBT tube Q4) is turned off first, the vertical tube (here: the first IGBT tube Q1) will directly commutate, and the voltage borne by the vertical tube (here: the first IGBT tube Q1) when it is turned off becomes the full bus voltage. It is also necessary to simulate this extreme working condition to perform double pulse testing in the test.
[0071] When the second selection device S2 is set to the full bus voltage short circuit test, a single pulse signal is sent to the gate of the first IGBT tube Q1, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the second IGBT tube Q2, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the third IGBT tube Q3, and a low level signal is sent to the gate of the fourth IGBT tube Q4. Here, the second selection device S2 should be connected with a conductor with strong overcurrent capacity, and a wire with poor current carrying capacity should not be used. At this time, the above current flow is: DC+ end--first IGBT tube Q1--second selection device S2--DC-end; what is tested is the state of the first IGBT tube Q1 when the full bus voltage is short-circuited.
[0072] Sixth, such as Figure 3 As shown, a double pulse and short circuit test method for an NPC T-type three-level circuit is also provided, which is used to perform a full bus voltage double pulse and short circuit test on the second IGBT tube Q2 in the NPC T-type three-level circuit, comprising the following steps:
[0073] A first selection device S1 is arranged in parallel at both ends of the first IGBT tube Q1 in the test circuit of the NPC T-type three-level circuit, for selecting the second IGBT tube Q2 to be subjected to a full bus voltage double pulse test or a short circuit test; the first selection device S1 can be implemented in a variety of ways, for example, by an active device or a switch circuit; both active devices and switch circuits can be controlled by a control circuit, so that the first selection device S1 is in an on or short circuit state, so as to achieve the full bus voltage double pulse and short circuit test on the second IGBT tube Q2.
[0074] When the first selection device S1 is set to the full bus voltage double pulse test, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the first IGBT tube Q1, a double pulse signal is sent to the gate of the second IGBT tube Q2, a low level signal is sent to the gate of the third IGBT tube Q3, and a low level signal is sent to the gate of the fourth IGBT tube Q4; at this time, the current direction is: DC+ end--first selection device S1--second IGBT tube Q2--DC-end; obviously, the full bus voltage is applied between the gate and source of the second IGBT tube Q2. In actual application, if "abnormal blocking wave" occurs, that is, the horizontal tube (the third IGBT tube Q3 and the fourth IGBT tube Q4) is turned off first, then the vertical tube (here: the second IGBT tube Q2) will directly commutate, and the voltage borne by the vertical tube (here: the second IGBT tube Q2) when it is turned off becomes the full bus voltage. It is also necessary to simulate this extreme working condition to perform double pulse testing in the test.

Here, the first selection device S1 should be connected with a conductor with strong overcurrent capacity, and a wire with poor current carrying capacity should not be used. At this time, the above current flow is: DC+ end--first selection device S1--second IGBT tube Q2--DC-end; what is tested is the state of the second IGBT tube Q2 when the full bus voltage is short-circuited.

[0081] Eighth aspect, such as Figure 3 , Figure 7 A double pulse and short circuit test device for an NPC T-type three-level circuit is also provided, which is used to perform a half bus voltage double pulse and short circuit test on a third IGBT tube Q3 in a test circuit of the NPC T-type three-level circuit, or to perform a full bus voltage double pulse and short circuit test on a second IGBT tube Q2 in a test circuit of the NPC T-type three-level circuit, including:
