Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an anti-series bidirectional constant current source clamping circuit, an AC SSPC and a control method, and belongs to the fields of power electronics technology and electrical engineering technology. Background Art

[0002] Solid-State Power Controllers (SSPCs) use power semiconductor devices as switches, integrating the switching control functions of relays and the protection functions of circuit breakers. They have the advantages of fast response, no arcing, no mechanical contacts, low on-state power consumption, strong load adaptability, and high reliability. They are the key core of advanced solid-state power distribution systems.

[0003] In aviation solid-state power distribution systems, when an AC SSPC is unloaded, the equivalent resistance on the load side is much greater than when the AC SSPC is off. This leakage current can cause a "pseudo-voltage" phenomenon on the load side, close to the supply voltage. Furthermore, when a capacitive load is connected to the AC SSPC, leakage current continuously charges the load side in the off state, causing a continuous voltage buildup on the load side. This problem is exacerbated as system voltage levels increase, posing a serious threat to system operation and personnel safety. Therefore, in-depth research on the clamping circuit of an AC SSPC has important theoretical and engineering value.

[0004] The conventional solution is to connect a bleeder resistor in parallel with the load. When the AC SSPC is turned off, the bleeder resistor is connected to the load side and dissipates the energy of the load capacitor in the bleeder resistor. In terms of discharge safety and stability, this solution has a current spike during the initial discharge, followed by an exponential decay of the discharge current, resulting in low safety and stability during the discharge process. In terms of clamping voltage, the parallel bleeder resistor solution ultimately clamps the load-side voltage to below 3V, resulting in a high clamping voltage. In terms of discharge time, the parallel bleeder resistor discharge time is always longer than 100ms. In terms of volume and weight, since all energy is dissipated in the bleeder resistor, the resistor is relatively large, resulting in a large total volume and weight for the power device.

[0005] In order to further reduce the clamping voltage and discharge time and improve the safety of the discharge process, it is necessary to further optimize the clamping circuit of the AC SSPC. Summary of the Invention

[0020] Table 1 Clamp circuit control logic circuit function table

[0021] Figure 2 This is the working mode diagram of the anti-series bidirectional constant current source clamp circuit. In the capacitive load energy release stage, according to the direction of the load discharge current, its working mode is divided into two categories: forward constant current discharge and reverse constant current discharge.

[0022] Mode I: Forward constant current discharge Assume that the load voltage is V load Positive, that is, the power output end of the AC solid-state power controller Powerout Potential higher than power ground PGND , the control instruction CMD of the clamp circuit aux Jumping from low level to high level, the same driving voltage V drv (constant 14V) applied to the gate of the upper / lower power tube and the analog ground AGND 2, the actual power tube gate-source voltage V GS Greater than the threshold voltage V TH After that, the discharge current in the circuit gradually increases from zero. R 1, as the discharge current increases, the voltage divider on the resistor V R1 Also increases linearly, the upper power tube S aux1 Gate-source voltage V GS1 Reduce, thereby controlling the drain-source current of the power tube I D1 Decreases, and after a certain period of time the circuit current reaches a constant value I CCS+ At this time, the upper power tube S aux1 Working in the saturation region, with the first negative feedback resistor R 1 forms a forward constant current source; at the same time, due to the second negative feedback resistor R 2, the lower power tube S aux2 Gate-source voltage V GS2 Increase, at this time the lower power tube S aux2 It is in a fully conductive state and works in the variable resistance area.

[0023] By the upper power tube S aux1 and the first negative feedback resistor R 1 Constant current source I CCS+ , which can be expressed as:

[0024] in, μ 0 is the electron mobility, C ox is the gate oxide capacitance per unit area, W is the channel width, L is the effective channel length. When the enhancement mode MOSFET device is determined, the forward constant current I CCS+ The first negative feedback resistor R 1 only confirmed.

[0025] Mode II: Reverse constant current discharge Assume that the load voltage is V load Negative, that is, the power output end of the AC solid-state power controller Powerout Potential lower than power ground PGND , the control instruction CMD of the clamp circuit aux Jumping from low level to high level, the same driving voltage V drv (constant 14V) applied to the gate of the upper / lower power tube and the analog ground AGND 2, the power tube gate-source voltage V GS Raised to the threshold voltage V TH When the discharge current in the circuit starts from zero and gradually increases. R 2, the voltage across the resistor V R2 As the discharge current increases, it increases linearly, resulting in the lower power tube S aux2 Gate-source voltage V GS2 Reduce, and thus control the drain-source current of the power tube I D2 Decreases, and after a certain period of time the circuit current reaches a constant value I CCS- At this time, the lower power tube S aux2 Working in saturation region, with the second negative feedback resistor R 2 forms a reverse constant current source; at the same time, the first negative feedback resistor R 1 makes the upper power tube S aux1 Gate-source voltage V GS1 Increase, at this time the upper power tube S aux1 It is in a fully conductive state and works in the variable resistance area.

[0026] The lower power tube and the second negative feedback resistorR 2 Constant current source composed of I CCS- , which can be expressed as:

[0027] Similarly, when the enhancement mode MOSFET device is determined, the reverse constant current I CCS- The second negative feedback resistor R 2 is the only certainty. Under the premise that the upper and lower power tube characteristics of the clamp circuit are consistent, in order to ensure that the forward and reverse discharge currents are basically the same, the resistance values ​​of the first and second negative feedback resistors in series should be equal when selecting. That is: R 1 =R 2 =R (3) I CCS+ =I CCS- =I CCS (4) Then we have:

[0028] Defining the gate transconductance of a MOSFET g m for:

[0029] in, μ 0 is the electron mobility, C ox is the gate oxide capacitance per unit area, W is the channel width, L is the effective channel length, V GS is the gate-source voltage of the power tube, V TH is the threshold voltage of the power tube.

[0030] Substituting formula (6) into formula (5) yields:

[0031] After confirming that the upper and lower power tubes use the same enhancement-mode MOSFET, g m 、 V drv 、 V TH The value is fixed, according to formula (7) the discharge current of this branch I CCS Can be made of resistor RThe only certainty.

[0032] Assume that the absolute value of the initial load voltage is V 0, the discharge current in the auxiliary branch is constant I CCS , ignoring the parasitic resistance of the load side line, the load discharge time T discharge It can be expressed as:

[0033] From formula (8), we can see that the discharge current I CCS The larger the discharge time T discharge Therefore, the bleeder resistor R Under certain conditions, the discharge current I CCS and discharge time T discharge There is a definite corresponding relationship, which makes the energy discharge process of the capacitive load completely controllable, including the discharge current and discharge time can be precisely adjusted.

[0034] Figure 3 This is the overall control timing diagram of the AC SSPC based on the anti-series bidirectional constant current source clamp circuit. The control timing diagram corresponds to the power supply voltage V S In the negative half cycle, the AC SSPC is turned on and the load current I load In the positive half cycle, the AC SSPC is turned off, t 0~ t 2 corresponds to the opening process of AC SSPC, t 3~ t 5 corresponds to the shutdown process of AC SSPC, t 5 After that, the clamping circuit works.

[0035] t 0: The main switch command CMD of AC SSPC becomes high, AC SSPC is turned on, due to the power supply voltage V S In the negative half cycle, the first power tube S of the main power circuit is turned on first. upp However, due to the second power tube S of the main power circuit low It has not been opened yet, and the main power circuit is still in the reverse cut-off state; t 1: Power supply voltage V S When entering the positive half cycle, the second power tube S of the main power circuit low The body diode and the first power tube S of the main power circuit that has been turned on uppThe channel forms a forward path to enable the load current to change from zero; t 2: Turn on the second power tube S of the main power circuit low , the AC SSPC enters the steady-state conduction state; t 3: The main switch command CMD of AC SSPC becomes low, AC SSPC is turned off, and the load current I load In the positive half cycle, first turn off the second power tube S of the main power circuit low , the second power tube S of the main power circuit low Current switches from the MOSFET channel to the body diode, and the load current continues; t 4: Load current I load When entering the negative half cycle, the AC SSPC is in the negative cut-off state, and the current naturally crosses zero and is turned off; t 5: Turn off the first power tube S of the main power circuit upp , the AC SSPC enters a stable off-state with bidirectional cutoff, and the control instruction CMD of the clamping circuit aux Go high, the power tube S aux1 , lower power tube S aux2 When the switch is turned on, the loop current flows through the clamp circuit, and the load voltage gradually decreases.

[0036] Table 2 AC SSPC zero-crossing switch control logic

[0037] Figure 4 This is the working timing diagram of the anti-series bidirectional constant current source clamp circuit. When the power tube S aux1 , lower power tube S aux2 When conducting, if the power output terminal of the AC solid-state power controller Powerout The voltage is higher than the power ground of the AC solid-state power controller PGND The voltage of the clamp circuit is as follows (a); on the contrary, if the upper power tube S aux1 , lower power tube S aux2 When turned on, the power output terminal of the AC solid-state power controller Powerout The voltage is lower than the power ground of the AC solid-state power controller PGND The working sequence of the clamping circuit is as follows (b).

[0038] t 0: The main switch command CMD of AC SSPC is set to low, and AC SSPC is turned off.

[0039] t1: Control instruction CMD of clamping circuit aux Set high level, the power tube S aux1 , lower power tube S aux2 If the power output terminal of the AC solid-state power controller is turned on, Powerout The voltage is higher than the power ground of the AC solid-state power controller PGND Voltage, current I CSS + Power tube S aux1 , the first negative feedback resistor R 1. Lower power tube S aux2 , the second negative feedback resistor R 2 Clamp the load side voltage to V C ; If the power output terminal of the AC solid-state power controller Powerout The voltage is lower than the power ground of the AC solid-state power controller PGND Voltage, current I CSS -Through the lower power tube S aux2 , the second negative feedback resistor R 2. Upper power tube S aux1 , the first negative feedback circuit R 1Clamp the load side voltage to V C .

[0040] The AC solid-state power controller based on the anti-series bidirectional constant current source clamping circuit of the present invention, when the AC solid-state power controller is turned on, the upper and lower power tubes S of the clamping circuit aux1 、S aux2 When the AC solid-state power controller is turned off, the upper and lower power tubes S of the clamp circuit do not work. aux1 、S aux2 Open, the clamp circuit is connected in series with the load, and the load capacitance ( C load ) The energy stored in the load resistor is dissipated ( R load And because the equivalent resistance of the clamping circuit is much smaller than the equivalent resistance of the AC solid-state power controller when it is turned off, the voltage divider value on the load side caused by the leakage current after the AC solid-state power controller is turned off can be controlled within 1V.

[0041] Figure 5 The working circuit diagram is shown in Figure 1. The load is unloaded and the SSPC is in a steady-state off state. Since the main power topology of the single-phase AC SSPC adopts two identical N-channel enhancement-type MOSFETs connected in anti-series, according to the circuit equivalent principle, the resistance can be established. R SSPC With capacitor CSSPC The equivalent two-terminal network model of the parallel SSPC, where the equivalent resistance of the SSPC in the steady-state conduction state is R SSPC It is in the milliohm level and in the megohm level in the steady-state off state.

[0042] If the clamp circuit is not added, in the SSPC control circuit, due to the presence of the load voltage sampling and conditioning circuit, that is, the differential amplifier circuit composed of the load and the operational amplifier is connected in parallel, and the differential mode input impedance of the operational amplifier is Z diff It is generally 100MΩ, so the no-load condition is approximately equivalent to a 100MΩ resistive load. Assuming that the equivalent resistance is 10MΩ when the SSPC main power circuit is off, when the load is no-load and the SSPC is in a steady-state off condition, the voltage on the load side is:

[0043] After adding the clamp circuit, the equivalent resistance of the clamp circuit is much smaller than the equivalent resistance of the SSPC shutdown. R SSPC Therefore, the partial voltage generated by the leakage current on the load side is much lower than the power supply voltage. The specific no-load clamping voltage is V C As follows: V C = 2( V DS +R aux i leak ) (10) In the above formula V DS is the drain-source conduction voltage drop of the enhancement-mode MOSFET, R aux are the resistance values ​​of the two resistors connected in series in the clamping circuit, i leak Under the same conditions, the load-side voltage after adding the clamp circuit is much lower than the load-side voltage without the clamp circuit, which greatly improves the safety of the system.

[0044] Figure 6 Figure 2 shows the operating circuit diagram for a capacitive load and the SSPC in steady-state off-state conditions. (a) shows the circuit without a clamp circuit. Solid-state switches such as MOSFETs and IGBTs still have a very small leakage current (in the order of μA) even in the off state. When the SSPC is off, this leakage current slowly charges the capacitive load.

[0045] Although the off-leakage current of the SSPC is small, the continuous charging of the capacitive load causes the voltage to rise linearly over time. This voltage may pose a hazard to personnel or equipment and needs to be suppressed through circuit design or protective measures.

[0046] Figure 6 (b) shows the circuit after adding the clamp circuit. Ignoring the current of the capacitive load, almost all the leakage current flows through the clamp circuit. At this time, the voltage on the load side is: V load = 2( V DS +R aux i leak ) (12) When a power MOSFET is on, its drain-source voltage typically remains in the millivolt range; in the off state, leakage current is only in the microampere range. By introducing a clamping circuit and setting a negative feedback resistor of tens of ohms, the load-side voltage can be effectively limited to a few volts. Compared to the case without the clamping circuit, the load-side voltage can be kept relatively stable with the clamping circuit, preventing the continuous accumulation of "virtual voltage" caused by leakage current. This design not only ensures system reliability but also eliminates potential safety hazards, effectively protecting personnel and equipment.

[0047] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical idea of ​​the present invention and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any changes made on the basis of the technical solution in accordance with the technical idea proposed by the present invention shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
