TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to capacitor technical field, especially a big current square low self -inductance DC -link capacitor. BACKGROUND
[0002] Si MOSFET, Si IGBT and SiC MOSFET can be used for electric energy conversion, but its power level, driving method and working mode are different. In terms of switching frequency, the switching frequency of Si MOSFET is >20kHz, the switching frequency of Si IGBT is 5kHz~10kHz, and the switching frequency of SiC MOSFET is >50kHz. SiC MOSFET can switch at high frequency, and higher power density, higher efficiency and lower heat dissipation can be realized.
[0003] The role of DC-Link capacitor is to use the characteristics that capacitor voltage cannot be suddenly changed and capacitor capacity resistance decreases with the increase of frequency to provide a low impedance channel for the system in a wide frequency band, thereby reducing the AC impedance of the DC bus. With the increase of frequency, the impedance gradually decreases, and at f=f0 (resonant frequency), it has the lowest impedance, which is equivalent series resistance ESR; when f>f0 (resonant frequency), the capacitor no longer has capacity resistance, but presents inductance, at which the capacitor has lost its function. Therefore, the working frequency of the capacitor should be much lower than the resonant frequency.
[0004] SiC MOSFET needs a DC-Link capacitor with a wider working frequency (i.e. a very high resonant frequency point) to match its high working frequency, which reduces the self-inductance ESL (Equivalent Series Inductance) of the capacitor.
[0005] Therefore, a DC-Link capacitor with low self-inductance and wide working frequency is needed to match SiC MOSFET, to ensure that the capacitor does not overheat when passing high-frequency large current, and to ensure safe and reliable operation of the system. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
