Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of motor driver testing technology, specifically relating to a three-phase load test circuit for testing motor drivers. Background Technology
[0002] Motor drivers are switching power devices that convert DC voltage into AC voltage through a specific switching sequence to control the rotation of a motor. Depending on the type of motor (generally divided into brushed and brushless motors), motor drivers are available in two-phase (H-bridge) and three-phase (full-bridge) configurations. The power range of motor drivers is wide, from 1W to 1000kW, and they frequently experience voltage and current spikes during operation. Therefore, current carrying capacity is a crucial indicator for motor drivers, often requiring phase output current carrying capacity compliance testing, as well as simultaneous power aging screening testing. Typically, when conducting capacity verification testing and power aging screening testing, methods such as... Figure 1 The conventional approach shown employs either a three-phase or two-phase resistive load. This conventional approach has two main shortcomings and limitations: Firstly, because the motor is an inductive load, a resistive load cannot accurately simulate the motor load and cannot provide a freewheeling mode. Secondly, the resistive load approach can only adjust the load current by changing the resistance value of the resistive load and the power supply voltage. Due to the limitations and continuity of the selection of the resistive load resistance and its rated power, the load current cannot be arbitrarily set, making it difficult to perform high-current load testing. Therefore, actual verification testing requires configuring various resistive loads with different resistance values and power ratings, and each motor driver's aging load test board needs to be specially designed, which is not convenient for universal compatibility testing and is not suitable for load testing of high-power motor drive products.

The embodiment only gives an implementable selection, and does not limit to use these models.
[0046] In order to better understand the embodiment, the test circuit of the embodiment is further analyzed and described below.
[0047] As shown in Figure 1 , when the three-phase motor driver adopts two-to-two conduction control mode (that is, at any time, only two power tubes are turned on), the conduction sequence of the internal power tubes Q1-Q6 is: Q3 and Q4 are turned on (the others are turned off) → Q4 and Q5 are turned on (the others are turned off) → Q5 and Q6 are turned on (the others are turned off) → Q6 and Q1 are turned on (the others are turned off) → Q1 and Q2 are turned on (the others are turned off) → Q2 and Q3 are turned on (the others are turned off) → Q3 and Q4 are turned on (the others are turned off) → …, and so on. The corresponding conduction timing and phase voltage waveform are shown in Figure 8 (ideal state, ignoring the peak voltage). As can be seen, the three-phase voltage waveform is an alternating three-segment voltage waveform, and the three-segment voltage values are 0 V, 1 / 2 VP and VP (VP is the DC power supply voltage), and the corresponding three-phase current waveform is also an alternating three-segment, and the three-segment current values are -IL, 0 A and +IL (IL is the load current), as shown in Figure 9 (ideal state, ignoring the peak current), therefore, the three-phase motor driver is a product that converts DC to AC.
[0048] As shown in Figure 1The conventional circuit shown can only adjust the size of the load current IL by changing the power supply voltage VP and the resistance load resistance RL, and cannot arbitrarily set the load current, so it cannot be applied universally. To solve the problem of continuous and arbitrary setting of the load current and safety testing, the current source mode of the electronic load can be used to replace the resistive load, but the electronic load can only be applied to single-phase loads in direct current mode and cannot be directly applied to motor drive three-phase load circuits with high-speed switching. To solve the applicability problem of the electronic load, the scheme of converting an alternating current load into a direct current load is adopted. After the three-phase alternating current load of the motor drive is shaped by synchronous rectification, it is converted into a single-phase direct current load, which is then delivered to the electronic load. To simulate the inductive load characteristics of the motor, the load testing of the motor driver has a freewheeling mode (the inductive load current cannot be suddenly changed, and when the power tube switches, the freewheeling diode inside the power tube needs to be used for freewheeling), and the actual application conditions are simulated more realistically. The embodiment adopts the technical scheme of integrating a three-phase inductive load on the basis of the above-mentioned electronic load scheme, and the overall circuit block diagram is as shown in Figure 2 so as to be applicable to the load testing of three-phase motor drivers of different motor types and different control modes.
[0049] As shown in Figure 2 The test current of the embodiment mainly includes a three-phase bridge driver 10, a synchronous rectifier 20, an electronic load 30, an MCU controller 40, an isolation driver 50, and a secondary power supply 60. The power part of the three-phase bridge driver, the synchronous rectifier, and the electronic load is as shown in Figure 3 Among them, L1-L3 are power inductors, which constitute a three-phase inductive load and have the function of generating inductive load current characteristics and simulating the motor load to a certain extent; Q7-Q12 are power MOS tubes, which constitute a three-phase synchronous rectifier and have the function of rectifying the three-phase alternating phase voltage output by the motor driver 10 through a unidirectional conduction rectifier bridge. The conduction sequence of the motor driver inside is Q3Q4→Q4Q5→Q5Q6→Q6Q1→Q1Q2→Q2Q3→Q3Q4→……, which corresponds to the conduction sequence of the rectifier bridge Q9Q10→Q10Q11→Q11Q12→Q12Q7→Q7Q8→Q8Q9→Q9Q10→……. After rectification, a current flow in one direction is always generated, which corresponds to a direct current voltage, and finally provides a direct current supply voltage for the electronic load 30 to meet the working requirements of the electronic load 30.
[0050] At the same time, since the circuit ground loop of the synchronous rectification part is floating, in order to ensure the reliable turn-off of the synchronous rectification part circuit, the self-boosting drive mode cannot be used, and the isolation drive control of the integrated isolation power supply needs to be used, as shown in Figure 4As shown, the isolation driver 50 is a SiC / IGBT gate driver integrated with an isolation DC / DC power supply. It is powered by a single power supply +5V, and internally generates an isolated VDD (+13V~20V) positive supply voltage and VEE (-4.5V~ -2.5V) negative supply voltage. It can convert a PWM signal with a duty cycle of 0~100% into an isolated gate drive signal (OUTH and OUTL) of VDD and VEE, providing a maximum transient peak drive current of 8A. At the same time, the module has functions such as current limiting protection, output Muller clamp, fault soft shutdown, undervoltage protection, and status indication (undervoltage / overcurrent).
[0051] In addition, since both the isolation driver 50 and the MCU controller 40 are powered by 5V, a secondary power conversion circuit is needed to convert the input voltage into a working voltage suitable for the isolation driver 50 and the MCU controller 40. The circuit structure of the secondary power supply 60 is as shown. Figure 7 To ensure good heat dissipation, the charging main circuit uses a PWM chip + external MOS tube (Q13, Q14) form. This circuit architecture can provide sufficient current loop for the main circuit, and the external MOS can also provide sufficient heat dissipation path.
[0052] As shown in Figure 3 , C1, C2, and L4 form a π-type filter. Due to the stable hysteresis in the switching process of the rectifier bridge, the rectified voltage has different degrees of pulsation. In order to suppress this voltage pulsation, a π-type filter is used to store energy and filter the rectified voltage, providing a stable and smooth DC voltage for the electronic load 30. When adjusting the electronic load, the current signal needs to be fed back synchronously. The MCU calculates a PWM signal with a matching duty cycle (i.e. the above-mentioned target duty cycle) and transmits it to the isolation driver 50, which is used to drive the three-phase bridge driver 10 and the synchronous rectification module 20. This avoids the risk of MOS chip overheating caused by mismatch between load size and PWM duty cycle. In this embodiment, the electronic load output current size can be set according to actual load current test requirements (current source mode). On the one hand, the load current size can be set arbitrarily, and the load current is independent of the power supply voltage, which can be applied to load verification tests of motor drivers with different voltages and power levels. On the other hand, when different products are subjected to aging screening tests, there is no need to configure a dedicated hardware aging load. The same load test circuit of this embodiment can be used for large current load safety testing, effectively solving the problems of conventional load test circuits, and providing a feasible and advanced load test solution for motor drivers.
[0053] To better apply the test circuit of this embodiment, the design of its test method will also be introduced. When the motor driver is applied to a brushless DC motor, it often adopts a two-way conduction control method, and the logic control signals input to the front stage need to meet the following requirements. Figure 8 The conduction sequence of Q1 to Q6 is shown. The electronic load 30 is set to current source output mode. The output current IL of the electronic load 30 is set according to the required load current. The power supply voltage is set according to the product's operating voltage requirements. The motor driver 10 can then generate a three-phase square wave inductive load current (three-segment square wave current with current values of -IL, 0A, and +IL). The frequency of the three-phase load current is consistent with the input control signal. Adjusting the input signal frequency can adjust the duration of the load current. Therefore, the load capacity test of this type of motor driver is realized. The same test method is also used in the corresponding power aging screening test. When a motor driver is applied to a permanent magnet synchronous motor, it often employs a three-on-three control method (i.e., three power transistors are simultaneously turned on at any given moment). The logic control signals input to the front stage need to be 6-channel SVPWM signals, making the conduction timing waveforms of Q1 to Q6 close to a sine wave. Therefore, this control method is also called sine wave control. The electronic load 30 is set to current source output mode, and the output current IL of the electronic load is set according to the required load current. The power supply voltage is set according to the product's operating voltage requirements. The motor driver can then generate a three-phase sinusoidal inductive load current (the peak values of the sinusoidal currents are -...). IL, + The three-phase load current frequency is consistent with the input control signal, so the load capacity test is carried out when driving this type of motor. The same test method is also used when conducting the corresponding power aging screening test.

Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
