The logic circuit 3 is used to perform combinational logic operations on g the logic signals generated by the state monitoring circuit 1 and V d the state monitoring circuit 2. The logic circuit 3 combines V g the two digital signals generated by the state monitoring circuit 1 and d 1 the d 2 gate drive signal SiC MOSFET combined with V drive to perform combinational logic operations and output a pulse square waveY This signal can be used to identify the start and end of the two-way crosstalk generated by the power device, and control the switch of the Miller clamping branch 5 through the finally output signal. In addition, the logic circuit 3 also generates a control signal V ctrl connected to the triode in the double discharge path in the Miller clamping branch 5 M 1 The level shift circuit 4 is used to shift the signal output by the logic circuit 3 from 0 - 5V V DDL to 0 - 20V V DDH This circuit changes the signal generated by the logic circuit 3 into a pulse square wave signal of 0 - 20V to control the switch of the Miller clamping branch 5

[0042] The Miller clamping branch 5 is used to suppress the two-way crosstalk and serves as an auxiliary path for suppressing crosstalk. This circuit includes a switching transistor M switch and a double discharge path. The switching transistor M switch is controlled by a logic control signal to turn on and off. When positive crosstalk occurs, the switching transistor M switch is turned on, and the charge generated by the positive crosstalk is stored in the capacitor C MC in the discharge path and stored. In this way, when positive crosstalk occurs, a discharge path is provided, suppressing the positive crosstalk and at the same time providing a charge extraction source for negative crosstalk. When the positive crosstalk ends, the switching transistor M switch is turned off. When negative crosstalk occurs, the switching transistor M of the Miller clamping branch 5 switch is turned on, and the previously stored charge is released to cancel the generation of negative crosstalk. When the negative crosstalk ends, the Miller clamping branch 5 is turned off. In addition, the Miller clamping branch 5 adopts a branch discharge strategy, using two paths for discharge when crosstalk occurs, reducing the capacitance value of the capacitor, realizing the integration of the capacitor, and improving the overall crosstalk suppression effect

[0043] The present invention generates two digital signals V d and V g through the state monitoring circuit 1 d 1 and d 2 the state monitoring circuit 2, and through the combinational logic operation of the logic circuit 3 with the gate drive signal, generates a pulse signal of 0 - 5V Y, this signal can accurately determine the beginning and end of crosstalk. On this basis, the pulse signal is shifted from 0 - 5V to 0 - 20V by the level - shifting circuit 4, and then passes through a buffer composed of three inverters buffer to drive the on - off of the switching transistor in the Miller clamping branch 5. The present invention only operates when crosstalk occurs and will not increase SiC MOSFET extra losses.

[0044] Starting from the SiC MOSFET generation of crosstalk, the present invention proposes an integrated active IC Miller clamping bidirectional crosstalk suppression circuit. By SiC MOSFT monitoring the drain voltage V d and the gate voltage V g of the state monitoring circuit to identify the beginning and end of positive crosstalk and negative crosstalk, the Miller clamping branch 5 is only turned on during crosstalk. Without increasing SiC MOSFET switching losses, the effective suppression of bidirectional crosstalk is achieved.
