At present, in the IGBT driving circuit applied to the energy storage inverter, since the power of the energy storage inverter is large, the IGBT module with high device integration and multiple IGBT single tubes is generally used. Moreover, the driving of each IGBT single tube needs a special driving power supply, so each IGBT module needs to be configured with multiple driving power supplies to drive multiple IGBT single tubes, and each driving power supply is configured with a driving chip to drive a transformer, so that the IGBT driving circuit needs to be configured with multiple driving chips and more other elements, and faces problems of large size, high cost, and unstable driving power supply caused by easily disturbed driving signal.

[0033] The IGBT driving circuit applied to the energy storage inverter provided in the embodiment of the utility model, in each driving unit 200, the driving signal output by the switching power supply driving chip 100 is transmitted to the primary winding of the transformer T1 after conversion by the push-pull circuit 210, and then is transmitted to the rectification filtering output circuit 220 after conversion by the transformer T1, finally the driving power supply of the IGBT single tube is provided by the rectification filtering output circuit 220, by simultaneously connecting the signal output end a of the switching power supply driving chip 100 to the push-pull circuit 210 of the plurality of driving units 200, the single switching power supply driving chip 100 provides the multi-way IGBT driving power supply, the number of switching power supply driving chips 100 in the driving circuit of the IGBT module integrated with the plurality of IGBT single tubes and the number of other components are greatly reduced, which is conducive to reducing the size of the IGBT driving circuit, reducing the cost of the IGBT driving circuit, reducing the probability of interference of the driving signal, and improving the driving power supply quality of the IGBT driving circuit.

[0034] It should be noted that the driving signal output by the switching power supply driving chip 100 generally adopts a pulse driving signal, which can make the driving power supply output by the IGBT driving circuit to the plurality of IGBT single tubes more stable, the pulse driving signal output by the switching power supply driving chip 100 is first subjected to voltage reduction and current stabilization by the push-pull circuit 210, and then is transmitted to the primary winding of the transformer T1, so that the influence of the transformer T1 on the switching power supply driving chip 100 is isolated, that is, the influence of the transformer T1 on the pulse driving signal is avoided, the reliability of the IGBT driving circuit is improved, and finally the secondary winding of the transformer T1 rectifies and distinguishes the pulse driving signal into positive bias voltage, original voltage and negative bias voltage through the rectification filtering output circuit 220, thereby generating a stable and reliable, high-quality driving power supply for driving the IGBT single tube.

When the pulse driving signal is at a high level, the first transistor Q1 is turned on, the direct current power provided by the direct current power end charges the first capacitor C1 through the primary winding of the transformer T1, and the current flowing through the primary winding of the transformer T1 flows from top to bottom. When the pulse driving signal is at a low level, the first transistor Q1 is turned off, and the second transistor Q2 is turned on.
