Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a switch control method and device of an AC solid-state power controller, belonging 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] To reduce the current surge when capacitive loads are switched on, DC SSPCs primarily employ slow-turn-on control strategies or current-limiting branches. For AC SSPCs, the current stress issue at the turn-on moment can theoretically be addressed by adding a current-limiting branch. However, because AC SSPCs utilize a control method that switches the upper and lower power transistors on and off in a specific sequence, independent of zero-point detection, the switching process itself is inherently complex. Adding a current-limiting branch to this approach presents new technical challenges, such as control timing coordination and branch switching. A mature solution currently lacks a solution.

[0004] Therefore, for AC SSPCs with parallel current-limiting branches, an innovative control method is urgently needed that can not only effectively suppress the inrush current when the capacitive load is turned on, but also significantly improve the reliability of the system, thereby further enhancing the performance and application scope of the AC SSPC.

[0010] Preferably, the current limiting branch includes a current limiting resistor, a power tube on the current limiting branch, a first detection resistor, a second detection resistor, and a power tube under the current limiting branch connected in series in sequence, and the gates of the power tube on the current limiting branch and the power tube under the current limiting branch are connected to different control signals.

[0011] Further preferably, the switch control method of the AC solid-state power controller is characterized by comprising:

[0012] When the current limiting branch is opened, when the power supply voltage is in the positive half cycle, the power tube of the current limiting branch is opened first, and the power tube of the current limiting branch is opened after the voltage crosses zero; when the power supply voltage is in the negative half cycle, the power tube of the current limiting branch is opened first, and the power tube of the current limiting branch is opened after the voltage crosses zero;

[0013] When shutting down the current limiting branch, when the current of the current limiting branch is in the positive half cycle, the power tube of the current limiting branch is shut down first, and the power tube of the current limiting branch is shut down after the current passes through zero; when the current of the current limiting branch is in the negative half cycle, the power tube of the current limiting branch is shut down first, and the power tube of the current limiting branch is shut down after the current passes through zero.

[0014] The present invention also provides an electronic device comprising a processor and a memory, wherein the memory stores a program that can be run on the processor, and is characterized in that when the program is executed by the processor, the steps of the switching control method of the above-mentioned AC solid-state power controller are implemented.

[0015] The beneficial effects brought about by the technical solution of the present invention are as follows:

[0016] 1) The power tube of the current-limiting branch can achieve "zero voltage turn-on and zero current turn-off", and the power tube of the main power branch can achieve "zero current turn-on", and the power tube loss during the turn-on and turn-off process is low;

[0017] 2) Efficiently suppress the inrush current generated during the turn-on of capacitive loads;

[0018] 3) It can accurately coordinate the switching timing of the main power branch and the current limiting branch, and has the advantages of high reliability and stability. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
