Introduction to IGBT Gate Drivers www.ti.com

An IMPORTANT NOTICE at the end of this TI reference design addresses authorized use, intellectual property matters and otherimportant disclaimers and information.

1 Introduction to IGBT Gate DriversInsulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) are considerably used in 3-phase inverters that have numerousapplications like variable-frequency drives that control the speed of AC motors, uninterruptible powersupply, solar inverters, and other similar inverter applications.

IGBTs have the advantages of high input impedance as the gate is insulated, has a rapid response ability,good thermal stability, simple driving circuit, good ability to withstand high voltage, snubber-less operation,and controllability of switching behavior providing reliable short-circuit protection. The IGBT is a voltage-controlled device, which gives it the ability to turn ON/OFF very quickly.

A typical application of a three-phase inverter using six isolated gate drivers is shown in Figure 1. Notethat each phase uses a high-side and a low-side IGBT switch to apply positive and negative high-voltageDC pulses to the motor coils in an alternating mode.

The output voltage to the motor is controlled by pulse-width modulation (PWM). PWM is accomplished byturning the transistor on and off several times. The output voltage is an average of the peak or maximumvoltage and the amount of time the transistor is turned on or off.

Figure 1. 3-Phase Inverter With Isolated Gate Drive

The ISO5852S is a reinforced isolated IGBT gate driver from TI intended for use in applications such asmotor control, industrial inverters, switched-mode power supplies, and so on. In these applications,sophisticated PWM control signals are required to turn the power-devices on and off, which at the systemlevel eventually may determine, for example, the speed, position, and torque of the motor or the outputvoltage, frequency, and phase of the inverter. These control signals are usually the outputs of amicrocontroller (MCU), and are at low-voltage levels such as 3.3 or 5.0 V. The gate controls required bythe IGBTs, on the other hand, are in the range of 15 to 20 V, and need high current capability to be ableto drive the large capacitive loads offered by those power transistors. Also, the gate drive needs to beapplied with reference to the emitter of the IGBT and by inverter construction, the emitter node of topIGBT swings between 0 to the DC bus voltage, which is several hundreds of volts in magnitude. As theIGBT can float with respect to ground at the power stage, both the power supply and the gate circuitryshould be isolated from the inverter ground. This gives room to a limited number of gate-driverconfigurations:• Gate drivers with potential separation• Gate drivers without potential separation

5.1 ISO5852SThe ISO5852S is a 5.7 kVRMS, reinforced isolated, IGBT gate driver with split outputs, OUTH and OUTL,providing 2.5-A source and 5-A sink currents. The primary side operates from a single 3-V or 5-V supply.The output side allows for a supply range from minimum 15 V to maximum 30 V. An internal DESATdetection recognizes when the IGBT is in an overload condition. Upon a DESAT detect, a Mute logicimmediately blocks the output of the isolator and initiates a soft-turn-off procedure, which disables OUTHand reduces the voltage at OUTL over a minimum time span of 2 μs. When OUTL reaches 2 V withrespect to the most negative supply potential, VEE2, the output is hard-clamped to VEE2.

During normal operation with bipolar output supply the output is hard clamp to VEE2 when the IGBT isturned OFF. If the output supply is unipolar, an active miller clamp connects the output to VEE2.

6.1 Main Power InputThe main power input section is shown in Figure 3. D1 is the reverse polarity protection diode and hasreverse breakdown voltage of 1600 V. The input bulk aluminum electrolytic capacitors C3, C6, and C7serve as local reservoirs for the IGBT module. These capacitors are rated to carry ripple current of 7.7 A.The rest of ripple current is expected to be sourced from external capacitors. In addition to the bulkaluminum capacitor, a polyester capacitor is used across the DC bus to suppress high frequency noises.

The startup current through the bulk capacitor is limited using thermistor, and the thermistor is bypassedafter one second using a relay.

6.2 Inverter StageThe IGBT-based 3-phase hex bridge inverter is shown in Figure 4. The decoupling capacitor (C154)should be placed near to DC bus entry of inverter for better filtering. An improper layout or position of thedecoupling capacitors can cause undesired switching voltage spikes. IGBT (Q1) and free-wheeling diode(D2) is added externally to the hex bridge IGBT module for braking.

The brake IGBT (APT70GR120L) is rated for 70 A (at TC = 110°C) current rating and 1200 V.

When DC bus voltage increases above the pre-defined value (this reference design uses a 1-kVthreshold) brake operation is enabled through controller and the excessive energy will be dissipatedthrough the resistive bank. The resistor bank is connected across the terminal blocks CN11 and CN12.The rating of external brake resistor is selected on the basis of the VFD rating, braking duty cycle, andmagnitude of the energy to be dissipated.

6.2.1 IGBT moduleThis reference design is intended to support various makes of IGBT modules like Infineon, Fuji &Mitsubishi, and so on. The power stage is designed to deliver up to 22-kW power. The power stage wassupplied with 800-V DC replicating high DC bus voltage during regeneration. Considering the safety factorand switching spikes, IGBTs were selected with the voltage rating greater than or equal to 1200 V. Thecurrent rating of the IGBT depends on the peak winding current.

The 3-phase inverter bridge is switched such that the sinusoidal current is injected into the motorwindings.• Motor rating = 22 kW• Line-to-line voltage = 415-V AC• Power factor considered = 0.8• Motor efficiency = 85%

(1)

Current through the winding = 47 ATherefore, the peak value of the winding current = √2 × IRMS = 66 A. (2)

Considering an overloading of 200%, the peak winding current would be 132 A.

The IGBT module used in this reference design (CM150TX-24S1) has continuous collector currentcarrying capacity of 150 A at TC = 100°C and peak current capacity of 300 A.

The selection of IGBT module with inbuilt NTC Thermistor is preferred to avoid thermal breakdown of theIGBT. This IGBT temperature rise information is routed to the MCU to take necessary action.

IGBTs can be driven into saturation to provide a very low voltage drop between the emitter and collector.

6.3 DC Link Voltage Sense CircuitThe DC bus input voltage to the inverter module is scaled down and fed to the MCU using the AMC1200isolation amplifier, which has a gain of 8. The differential output of the AMC1200 can directly drive ananalog-to-digital converter (ADC) input or can be further filtered before being processed by the ADC.

The resistor divider network is chosen considering the maximum voltage for the MCU ADC input as 3.3 Vand the maximum DC link voltage to be measured as 1200 V.

To achieve better linearity and the noise performance of the device, the allowable input voltage betweenthe amplifier pin VINP and VINN is ±250 mV. The voltage divider resistor is selected such that input voltageto the amplifier is less than ±250 mV at maximum DC bus condition.

Resistors R76 to R81 (see Figure 5) are selected as 1-M high-voltage resistors and R85 = 1K and R88 =10K. The differential output of the AMC1200 is directly routed to ADC of MCU.

AMC Output = AMC Gain × VIN

(3)

For 400-V DC inputVIN = 0.00017 × 400 ≈ 0.0665 V and VOUT = 8 × 0.0665 V ≈ 0.532 V.

For 1200-V DCVIN = 0.00017 × 1200 ≈ 0.2 VVOUT = 8 × 0.2 V ≈ 1.6 V

A decoupling capacitor of 4.7 μF and 0.1 μF is used for filtering the power-supply path of the AMC1200. Acapacitor (C166 and C84 in Figure 5) should be placed as close as possible to the VDD1 pin for bestperformance.

6.4 ISO5852S: Isolated IGBT Gate DriverThe ISO5852S is a 5.7-kVRMS, reinforced, isolated IGBT gate driver with split outputs OUTH and OUTLcapable of providing a 2.5-A source and 5-A sink currents. The primary side operates from a single 3.3-Vor 5-V supply. The output side allows for a supply range from minimum of 15 V to maximum 35 V. TheISO5852S has both inverting and non-inverting gate control inputs, an active low reset input, and an opendrain fault output suitable for wired-OR applications.

Figure 6 shows the one section of the gate driver schematic. This IC can be powered with either aunipolar or bipolar supply. If the IC is powered by unipolar supply, the VEE2 PIN should be connected toGND2. The supply bypass capacitors provide the large transient currents necessary during a switchingtransition.

The ISO5852S has the following features:• 5.7-kVRMS reinforced isolation voltage• 1.5-kVRMS working voltage• 12-kV surge rating• Split outputs providing 2.5-A peak source and 5-A peak sink currents• Short propagation delay: 76 ns typical• Active miller and short-circuit clamp• Soft turn-off during short circuit• FAULT alarm and RESET• Input and output supply UVLO with ready (RDY) output• CMOS compatible inputs

6.4.1 Power SupplyVCC1 and GND1 are the supply pins for the input side of the ISO5852S. The supply voltage at VCC1 canrange from 3 to 5.5 V with respect to GND1, thus supporting the direct interface to 3.3 V low-powercontrollers as well as legacy 5 V controllers.

VCC2 and GND2 are the supply pins for the output side of the ISO5852S. VEE2 is the supply return forthe output driver and GND2 is the reference for the logic circuitry. The supply voltage at VCC2 can rangefrom 15 V up to 30 V with respect to VEE2.

A positive VGE of typically 15 V is required to switch the IGBT well into saturation. In this design, VCC2 isfed with 16 V to ensure that IGBT is in full saturation.

For low power IGBTs, miller clamp functionality of the gate driver enables it to be operated with unipolarvoltage (VEE2 connected to GND2). For larger IGBTs, negative values of VGE, ranging from a requiredminimum of –5 V up to the recommended –15 V, are necessary to keep the IGBT turned off and toprevent it from unintentional conducting due to noise transients, particularly during short circuit faults. Theboard has provision for connecting VEE2 to either 0 V or –8 V through jumpers.

Figure 7. ISO5852S Supply Voltages

6.4.2 Control Signal InputsThe two digital control inputs, IN+ and IN–, allow for inverting and non-inverting control of the gate driveroutput. In the non-inverting configuration, IN+ receives the control input signal and VIN– is connected toGND1. In the inverting configuration, VIN– is the control input while VIN+ is connected to VCC1.

6.4.3 Gate ResistanceThe gate current and the appropriate power of the voltage supply depend on the operating frequency, biascontrol voltages, and total gate charge. The total gate charge is published in IGBT datasheets, dependingon gate-control voltage. The gate charge necessary for switching is very important to establish theswitching performance of a MOSFET or IGBT. The lower the charge, the lower is the gate-drive currentneeded for a given switching time. The gate current can be controlled using external gate resistor betweendriver output and gate of IGBT. The value of the gate resistor determines the peak charge and dischargecurrents.

The ISO5852S device features a split-output configuration where the gate drive current is sourced throughthe OUTH pin and sunk through the OUTL pin. This pin arrangement provides flexibility to applyindependent turn-on and turn-off resistors to the OUTH and OUTL pins respectively and easily control theswitching slew rates. The value of the gate resistor influences different aspects of the switching processlike:• IGBT switching losses• Control di/dt• Cross conduction• Reverse recovery losses of the diode

The value of gate resistor is system dependent and usually chosen a value to provide optimumperformance. Strong sink capability (5 A) in an asymmetrical drive also boosts immunity against parasiticMiller turn-on effect.

6.4.4 Optional External Current BufferWhen driving larger IGBTs requiring gate currents more than 5 A, an external current boost circuit can bebuilt with discrete NPN/PNP complimentary pair. One possible implementation is shown in Figure 10. Theselected BJT should be of fast switching and to have sufficient current gain to deliver the desired peakoutput current. The circuit, in Figure 10, with a MJD3055T4/MJD2955 pair can drive gate currents up to 10A.

Figure 10. Options in Using External Current Buffer

6.4.5 Undervoltage LockoutThe undervoltage lockout feature prevents the application of insufficient gate voltage (VGE-ON) to the powerdevice by forcing OUTH/OTL low during power-up and whenever supply voltage drops below 11 V. IGBTstypically require gate voltages of VGE = 15 V to achieve their rated, low saturation voltage, VCES. At gatevoltages below 13 V typically, their VCE-ON increases drastically, especially at higher collector currents. Ateven lower voltages, that is VGE < 10 V, an IGBT starts operating in the linear region and quicklyoverheats. The UVLO feature of ISO5852S avoids operating the IGBT in linear region by shutting it offduring insufficient gate supply voltage.

The UVLO feature has a hysteresis of 1 V typical and the typical values for the positive and negativegoing input threshold voltages are VTH+ = 12 V and VTH– = 11 V.

6.4.6 Desaturation Protection (DESAT)The DESAT fault detection prevents IGBT destruction due to excessive collector currents during a shortcircuit fault. Short circuits caused by bad wiring, or overload conditions induced by the load can cause arapid increase in IGBT current, leading to excessive power dissipation and heating. IGBTs becomedamaged when the current approaches the saturation current of the device and the collector-emittervoltage, VCE, rises above the saturation voltage level, VCE-sat. The drastically increased power dissipationoverheats and destroys the IGBT.

To prevent damage to IGBT, ISO5852S slowly turns OFF the IGBT in the event of fault detection. Slowturn OFF ensures the overcurrent is reduced in a controlled manner during the fault condition. The DESATfault detection involves a comparator that monitors the IGBT’s VCE and compares it to an internal 9-Vreference. If voltage across the IGBT reaches the threshold, DESAT detects immediately and blocks thegate driver output and initiates a soft-turn-off procedure that disables the OUTH, and reduces the voltageat OUTL over a minimum time span of 2 μs. The output is hard clamped to VEE2 when OUTL reaches 2 Vwith respect to VEE2.

6.4.6.1 DESAT Pin ProtectionThe diodes (GL41Y in Figure 11) at the DESAT signal block the high voltage during the IGBT OFF stateand conduct forward current, which allows the sensing of the IGBT’s saturated collector-to-emitter voltage(VCESAT) when the IGBT is "ON". To avoid false DESAT triggering, fast switching diodes with lowcapacitance are recommended. Because the sum of the DESAT diode forward-voltage and the IGBTcollector-emitter voltage make up the voltage at the DESAT-pin, VF + VCE = VDESAT, the VCE level, whichtriggers a fault condition, can be modified by adding multiple DESAT diodes in series: VCE-FAULT (TH) = 9 V –n × VF (where n is the number of DESAT diodes). When using two diodes instead of one, diodes with halfthe required maximum reverse-voltage rating may be chosen. See Figure 11 where provision is providedto mount two DESAT diodes.

Switching inductive loads causes large instantaneous forward voltage transients across the freewheelingdiodes of IGBTs. These transients result in large negative voltage spikes on the DESAT pin which drawsubstantial current out of the device. To limit this current below damaging levels, a 100-Ω to 1-kΩ resistorcan be connected in series with the DESAT diode. Further protection is possible through an optionalSchottky diode (MM3Z12VB), whose low forward voltage assures clamping of the DESAT input to GNDpotential at low voltage levels.

Figure 11. DESAT Detection

DESAT Blanking TimeThe DESAT fault detection must remain disabled for a short time period following the turn-on of the IGBTto allow its collector voltage to drop below the 9-V DESAT threshold. This time period, called the DESATblanking time, tBLK, is controlled by an internal charge current of ICHG = 500 μA, the 9-V DESAT threshold,VDSTH, and an external blanking capacitor, CBLK.

CDESAT = 100 pF (refer to C150 in Figure 11).

(4)

The capacitor value can be scaled slightly to adjust the blanking time. However, because the blankingcapacitor and the DESAT diode capacitance build a voltage divider that attenuates large voltage transientsat DESAT, CBLK values smaller than 100 pF are not recommended.

If VCE exceeds this reference voltage (9 V) after the blanking time, the comparator inside ISO5852Scauses the gate drive and fault logic to initiate a fault shutdown sequence. This sequence starts with theimmediate generation of a fault signal, which is transmitted across the isolation barrier towards the faultindicator circuit at the input side of the ISO5852S.

This board also provides feature of disabling the DESAT during testing by connecting the jumper at theDESAT pin.

6.4.7 Active Miller ClampDuring turn-on or turn-off of IGBTs, displacement current flows through the miller capacitor (gate tocollector capacitor) of the IGBT, raising its gate voltage. It could lead to unintentional turn-on of the IGBT.When the high-side IGBT turns on within an inverter leg, the voltage across the low-side IGBT increaseswith a high dv/dt. The ratio of reverse transfer capacitance to the input capacitance is larger for IGBTs(CRES/CIES). This produces an increased Miller effect and a larger noise is coupled from the collector to thegate.

This induces a current in the gate of the lower IGBT that may produce turn-on of the low-side deviceshorting the DC bus.

However, certain low-power IGBTs have a lesser CRES (reverse transfer capacitance) and do not neednegative gate voltage for turn-off. Instead, the clamp functionality of the ISO5852S can be used to ensurethat gate is pulled to emitter thorough a low-impedance path, preventing a false turn-on.

The CLAMP transistor is turned on when OUTL reaches 2 V with regard to VEE2 during turn-off of theIGBT. The CLAMP transistor hard clamps the OUTL pin to VEE2. The clamp transistor remains on once itis ON even if OUTL goes above 2 V. The CLAMP transistor is again turned off during IGBT turn-onprocess.

If the supply is unipolar, an active Miller clamp connects the output to VEE2 (Ground), and this condition islatched. During a bipolar supply operation, the output is hard clamped to VEE2 (-8 V) when the IGBT isturned off.

For larger IGBTs, a still negative gate voltage is required. Another reason for the negative gate voltage atIGBTs is of the operation at higher voltages with increased (dv/dt) coupling of noise.

6.4.8 Fault and Protection HandlingThe FAULT pin indicates an error event (with soft shutdown) has occurred such as IGBT short circuit.Fault will be latched until the reset is applied. FAULT will go high, when the logic low pulse is applied toRESET pin. This can be accomplished with an MCU, or an additional logic gate that synchronizes theRESET signal with the appropriate input signal.

The ready pin is high during the primary and secondary side supplies are good. It is pulled LOW when thesupply voltage is less than the UVLO limits.

6.4.9 External Gate Emitter Capacitor to Shunt Miller CurrentAn option to mount external capacitor between IGBT gate and emitter has been provided to evaluate theeffectiveness of clamp functionality.

This capacitor can sink the additional charge originating from the Miller capacitance during the turn-on oftop IGBT. Due to the additional capacitance, the effective input capacitance of the IGBT is CG||CGE, thegate charge required to reach the threshold voltage will be increased.

6.4.10 Power DissipationIn the process of turning the IGBT ON and OFF, power is dissipated by the driver IC, IGBT gate, and byany RC circuits in the gate drive path.

Figure 12. Driver Power Loss

The total gate power dissipation is calculated with Equation 5:

where• Qgate = total gate charge• Fsw = Switching frequency• ΔVgate = Gate driver output voltage swing (5)

For CM150TX-24S1, Qg is approximated as 450 nC for bipolar switching and 300 nC for unipolarswitching with Vge = 15 V.

• FSW = 16 KHz• ΔVgate = 15 V and 23 V• Cge = 10 nF

The static power dissipation of ISO5852S is PDC = IQ × VDD where IQ is the quiescent current for thedriver. The quiescent current is the current consumed by the device to bias all internal circuits such asinput stage, reference voltage, logic circuits, protections, and so on, and also any current associated withswitching of internal devices when the driver output changes state. The ISO5852S features very lowquiescent currents — 6 mA when supplied with 15 V and –8 V.

Power dissipation for bipolar switching: Pgate = 0.138 + 0.1656 + 0.085 = 0.4 W

Power dissipation for unipolar switching: Pgate = 0.2 W

6.5 Half-Bridge SMPS for Gate DriverA half-bridge SMPS is used to generate isolated positive (16 V) and negative (–8 V) voltage rails requiredby IGBT gate drivers from a single 24-V DC input supply. The half-bridge driver is operated in open loopmode with 500 kHz / 50% duty cycle generated by the Piccolo controller.

This half-bridge topology allows for more efficient use of the transformer core than the flyback or forwardconverters. The transformer has two secondaries, each generating 8.7 V (required output = 8 V with adiode drop of 0.7 V). A voltage doubler has been used to generate 16 V from the secondary generated 8V. Each transformer is used to power TOP and BOTTOM IGBTs of each phase.

Figure 13. Isolated Power Supply

During the turn-on and turn-off of IGBT, gate driver requires instant peak current from its power supply fora short period of time, so it is important to use proper by-pass capacitors for the power supply. To achievethe minimum output ripple with high-current load transients, a 47-μF capacitor at each of the output on thesecondary side is used.

6.6 Design of 24-V to 15-V and 5-V Step-Down DC-DC ConverterThe 15-V regulated power supply for the half-bridge driver and 5 V are derived using the TPS54286switching converter. The TPS54286 device is a dual step-down (buck) regulator with an integrated high-side and low-side n-channel MOSFET. This operates in constant switching frequency, current modecontrol which reduces output capacitance, and also reduces the complexity of compensation design.

6.6.1.2 Output CapacitorThe internal compensation of the TPS54286 limits the selection of the output capacitors. Internalcompensation has a double zero resonance at about 6 kHz, so the output capacitor is selected byEquation 10.

For 15 V

(10)

For 5 V

6.6.1.3 Output Voltage RegulationFor this design feedback divider resistors (R97, R100) are 20K and 51.1K. The lower resistor R102 andR103 are found using the following equations.

(11)

(12)

6.6.1.4 Bootstrap circuitA 3.3-nF ceramic capacitor must be connected between the BOOT and SW pins for proper operation. Usea ceramic capacitor with X5R or better grade dielectric. The capacitor should be rated 50 V or higher.

A small resistor with value between 1 and 3 Ω to be placed in series with the bootstrap capacitor; thisreduces the rising edge ringing at the SW node.

6.6.1.5 SnubberFast switching and parasitic inductance and capacitance results in a voltage ringing at the SW node. If theringing results in excessive voltage on the SW node or erratic operation of the converter, an R-C snubber(C = between 330 pF and 1 nF, R = 10 Ω) may be used to dampen the ringing at the SW node to ensureproper operation over the full load range.

6.7 Design of 5-V isolated DC-DC ConverterThe AMC1200 requires isolated power supply for powering its input section. The SN6501 is used as aswitching device to generate a 5-V isolated output.

Table 3. Specifications for Selection of 5-V DC-DC Converter

PARAMETER SPECIFICATIONOutput voltage 5 V

Output current required 10 mAInput voltage 5 V

Output voltage ripple 0.5% of VOUT

The SN6501 is a monolithic oscillator and power-driver, specifically designed for isolated power suppliesin isolated interface applications with small form factor. It drives a low-profile, center-tapped transformerprimary from a 3.3-V or 5-V DC power supply. The SN6501 consists of an oscillator followed by a gatedrive circuit that provides the complementary output signals to drive the ground referenced N-channelpower switches. The internal logic ensures break-before-make action between the two switches.

Features:• Push-pull driver for small transformers• Single 3.3-V or 5-V supply

Figure 16. Isolated 5-V Converter

Transformer SelectionTo prevent a transformer from saturation its V-t product must be greater than the maximum V-t productapplied by the SN6501. The maximum voltage delivered by the SN6501 is the nominal converter inputplus 10%. The maximum time voltage is applied to the primary is half the period of the lowest frequency atthe specified input voltage. Therefore, the transformer’s minimum V-t product is determined usingEquation 13.

(13)

Common V-t values for low-power center-tapped transformers range from 22 Vμs to 150 Vμs with typicalfootprints of 10 × 12 mm. Other important factors to be considered in transformer selection are isolationvoltage, transformer wattage, and turns ratio.

7.13 Short Circuit Test — Hard Switched

NOTE: All the tests in Section 7.13 and Section 7.14 were performed using engineering samples ofISO5852S. The final silicon has a higher pulldown drive during soft shutdown whencompared to the engineering samples, resulting in lower soft shutdown time for given Qg ofthe IGBT die. Refer to the latest datasheet of ISO5852S on TI Website athttp://www.ti.com/product/ISO5852S

Figure 87 shows the block diagram of hard-switched fault setup.
