Typical values are the average values expected in large quantities and are provided for information purposes only. These values can and do vary in different applications. All operating parameters should be validated by user’s technical experts for each application. Application and Handling Instructions Please provide for static discharge protection during handling. As long as the hybrid driver is not completely assembled, the input terminals have to be short-circuited. Persons working with devices have to wear a grounded bracelet. Any synthetic floor coverings must not be statically chargeable. Even during transportation the input terminals have to be short-circuited using, for example, conductive rubber. Worktables have to be grounded. The same safety requirements apply to MOSFET- and IGBT-modules. Any parasitic inductances within the DC-link have to be minimised. Over-voltages may be absorbed by C- or RCDsnubbers between main terminals for PLUS and MINUS of the power module. When first operating a newly developed circuit, SEMIKRON recommends to apply low collector voltage and load current in the beginning and to increase these values gradually, observing the turn-off behaviour of the free-wheeling diode and the turn-off voltage spikes generated across the IGBT. An oscillographic control will be necessary. Additionally, the case temperature of the module has to be monitored. When the circuit works correctly under rated operation conditions, short-circuit testing may be done, starting again with low collector voltage. It is important to feed any errors back to the control circuit and to switch off the device immediately in failure events. Repeated turn-on of the IGBT into a short circuit with a high frequency may destroy the device. The inputs of the hybrid driver are sensitive to over-voltage. Voltages higher than VS +0,3V or below -0,3V may destroy these inputs. Therefore, control signal over-voltages exceeding the above values have to be avoided. The connecting leads between hybrid driver and the power module should be as short as possible (max. 20cm), the driver leads should be twisted.

The charge necessary to switch the IGBT is mainly depending on the IGBT’s chip size, the DC-link voltage and the gate voltage. This correlation is shown in module datasheets. It should, however, be considered that the driver is turned on at +15V and turned off at -7V. Therefore, the gate voltage will change by 22V during each switching procedure. Unfortunately, many datasheets do not show negative gate voltages. In order to determine the required charge, the upper leg of the charge curve may be prolonged to +22V for determination of approximate charge per switch. The medium output current of the driver is determined by the switching frequency and the gate charge. The maximum switching frequency may be calculated with the shown equation and is limited by the average current of the driver power supply and the power dissipation of driver components. Calculation Switching Frequency Maximum Switching Frequency @ different Gate Charges @ Tamb=25° C 60 kHz fmax = switching frequency Iout AV max Q GE 50 kHz 40 kHz 30 kHz fmax: QGE: Maximum switching frequency * Gate charge of the driven IGBT IoutAVmax: Maximum output average current 20 kHz 10 kHz * @ Tamb=25° C 0 kHz 0 µC 1 µC 2 µC with external boost capacitors 3 µC 4 µC gate charge 5 µC 6 µC 7 µC Calculation Average Output Current Average Output Current as a Function of the Ambient Temperature 60 mA 50 mA Iout AV = fsw × Q GE average output current 40 mA IoutAV: fsw: QGE: Average output current Switching frequency Gate charge of the driven IGBT 30 mA 20 mA 10 mA 0 mA 0° C 10 ° C 20 ° C 30 ° C 40 ° C 50 ° C ambient temperature 60 ° C 70 ° C 80 °C 90 ° C Please note: The maximum value of the switching frequency is limited to 50kHz due to switching reasons. Insulation Magnetic transformers are used for insulation between gate driver primary and secondary side. The transformer set consists of pulse transformers which are used bidirectional for turn-on and turn-off signals of the IGBT and the error feedback between secondary and primary side, and a DC/DC converter. This converter provides a potential separation (galvanic separation) and power supply for the two secondary (TOP and BOT) sides of the driver. Thus, external transformers for external power supply are not required.

The maximum test voltage and time applied once between input and output, and once between output 1 and output 2 are indicated in the absolute maximum ratings. The high-voltage isolation tests and repeated tests of an isolation barrier can degrade isolation capability due to partial discharge. Repeated isolation voltage tests should be performed with reduced voltage. The test voltage must be reduced by 20% for each repeated test. The isolation of the isolation barrier (transformer) is checked in the part. With exception of the isolation barrier, no active parts, which could break through are used. An isolation test is not performed as a series test. Therefore, the user can perform once the isolation test with voltage and time indicated in the absolute maximum ratings. Please note: An isolation test is not performed at SEMIKRON as a series test. Auxiliary Power Supply A few basic rules should be followed when dimensioning the customer side power supply for the driver. The following table shows the required features of an appropriate power supply. Requirements of the auxiliary power supply Regulated power supply Maximum rise time of auxiliary power supply Minimum peak current of auxiliary supply Power on reset completed after +15V ±4% 50ms 1A 150ms Please note: Do not apply switching signals during power on reset. The supplying switched mode power supply may not be turned-off for a short time as consequence of its current limitation. Its output characteristic needs to be considered. Switched mode power supplies with fold-back characteristic or hiccup-mode can create problems if no sufficient over current margin is available. The voltage has to rise continuously and without any plateau formation as shown in the following diagram. Rising slope of the power supply voltage If the power supply is able to provide a higher current, a peak current will flow in the first instant to charge up the input capacitances on the driver. Its peak current value will be limited by the power supply and the effective impedances (e.g. distribution lines), only. It is recommended to avoid the paralleling of several customer side power supply units. Their different set current limitations may lead to dips in the supply voltage. The driver is ready for operation typically 150ms after turning on the supply voltage. The driver error signal PRIM_nERROR_OUT is operational after this time. Without any error present, the error signal will be reset. To assure a high level of system safety the TOP and BOT signal inputs should stay in a defined state (OFF state, LOW) during driver turn-on time. Only after the end of the power-on-reset, IGBT switching operation shall be permitted. 7 Rev 0 – 11.08.2010 © by SEMIKRON SKYPER® 32 R UL Under Voltage Protection of driver power supply (UVP) The internally detected supply voltage of the driver has an under voltage protection. The table below gives an overview of the trip level. Supply voltage Regulated +15V ±4% UVP level 13,5V If the internally detected supply voltage of the driver falls below this level, the IGBTs will be switched off (IGBT driving signals set to LOW). The input side switching signals of the driver will be ignored. The error memory will be set, and the output PRIM_nERROR_OUT changes to the HIGH state. Input Signals The signal transfer to each IGBT is made with pulse transformers, used for switching on and switching off of the IGBT. The inputs have a Schmitt Trigger characteristic and a positive / active high logic (input HIGH = IGBT on; input LOW = IGBT off). It is mandatory to use circuits which switch active to +15V and 0V. Pull up and open collector output stages must not be used for TOP / BOT control signals. It is recommended choosing the line drivers according to the demanded length of the signal lines. Please note: It is not permitted to apply switching pulses shorter than 1µs. TOP / BOT Input A capacitor is connected to the input to obtain high noise immunity. This capacitor can cause for current limited line drivers a little delay of few ns, which can be neglected. The capacitors have to be placed as close as possible to the driver interface. Short Pulse Suppression (SPS) This circuit suppresses short turn-on and off-pulses of incoming signals. This way the IGBTs are protected against spurious noise as they can occur due to bursts on the signal lines. Pulses shorter than 625ns are suppressed and all pulses longer than 750ns get through for 100% probability. Pulses with a length in-between 625ns and 750ns can be either suppressed or get through. Pulse pattern – SPS short pulses PRIM_TOP/BOT_IN (HIGH) PRIM_TOP/BOT_IN (LOW) SEC_TOP/BOT_IGBT_ON SEC_TOP/BOT_IGBT_OFF 8 Rev 0 – 11.08.2010 © by SEMIKRON SKYPER® 32 R UL Failure Management Any error detected will set the error latch and force the output PRIM_nERROR_OUT into HIGH state. Switching pulses from the controller will be ignored. Connected and switched off IGBTs remain turned off. The switched off IGBTs remain turned off. A reset of the latched error memory is only possible if no failure is present anymore and if the TOP and BOT input signals are set to the LOW level for a period of tpERRRESET > 9µs. The output PRIM_nERROR_OUT is an open collector output. For the error evaluation an external pull-up-resistor is necessary pulled-up to the positive operation voltage of the control logic (LOW signal = no error present, wire break safety is assured). Open collector error transistor Application hints An external resistor to the controller logic high level is required. The resistor has to be in the range of V / Imax < Rpull_up < 10k . PRIM_nERROR_OUT can operate to maximum 30V and can switch a maximum of 15mA. Example: For V = +15V the needed resistor should be in the range Rpull_up = (15V/15mA) … 10k ⇒ 1k … 10k . Please note: The error output PRIM_ERROR_OUT is not short circuit proof. Shut Down Input (SDI) The shut down input / error input signal can gather error signals of other hardware components for switching off the IGBT (input HIGH = no turn-off; input LOW = turn-off). A LOW signal at PRIM_nERROR_IN will set the error latch and force the output PRIM_nERROR_OUT into HIGH state. Switching pulses from the controller will be ignored. A reset of the latched error memory is only possible if no LOW signal at PRIM_nERROR_IN is present anymore and if the TOP and BOT input signals are set to the LOW level for a period of tpERRRESET > 9µs. The SDI function can be disabled by no connection or connecting to 5V. Connection SDI 9 Rev 0 – 11.08.2010 © by SEMIKRON SKYPER® 32 R UL Dead Time generation (Interlock TOP / BOT) (DT) The DT circuit prevents, that TOP and BOT IGBT of one half bridge are switched on at the same time (shoot through). The dead time is not added to a dead time given by the controller. Thus the total dead time is the maximum of "built in dead time" and "controller dead time". It is possible to control the driver with one switching signal and its inverted signal. Please note: The generated dead time is fixed and cannot be changed. Pulse pattern – DT The total propagation delay of the driver is the sum of interlock dead time (tTD) and driver input output signal propagation delay (td(on;off)IO) as shown in the pulse pattern. Moreover the switching time of the IGBT chip has to be taken into account (not shown in the pulse pattern). In case both channel inputs (PRIM_TOP_IN and PRIM_BOT_IN) are at high level, the IGBTs will be turned off. If only one channel is switching, there will be no interlock dead time. Please note: No error message will be generated when overlap of switching signals occurs. Dynamic Short Circuit Protection by VCEsat monitoring / de-saturation monitoring (DSCP) The DSCP circuit is responsible for short circuit sensing. It monitors the collector-emitter voltage VCE of the IGBT during its on-state. Due to the direct measurement of VCEsat on the IGBT's collector, the DSCP circuit switches off the IGBTs and an error is indicated. The reference voltage VCEref may dynamically be adapted to the IGBTs switching behaviour. Immediately after turn-on of the IGBT, a higher value is effective than in steady state. This value will, however, be reset, when the IGBT is turned off. VCEstat is the steady-state value of VCEref and is adjusted to the required maximum value for each IGBT by an external resistor RCE. It may not exceed 10V. The time constant for the delay (exponential shape) of VCEref may be controlled by an external capacitor CCE, which is connected in parallel to RCE. It controls the blanking time tbl which passes after turn-on of the IGBT before the VCEsat monitoring is activated. This makes an adaptation to any IGBT switching behaviour possible. Reference Voltage (VCEref) Characteristic After tbl has passed, the VCE monitoring will be triggered as soon as VCE > VCEref and will turn off the IGBT. The error memory will be set, and the output PRIM_nERROR_OUT changes to the HIGH state. Possible failure modes are shows in the following pictures. 10 Rev 0 – 11.08.2010 © by SEMIKRON SKYPER® 32 R UL Short circuit during operation Turn on of IGBT too slow * Short circuit during turn on * or adjusted blanking time too short Adjustment of DSCP The external components RCE and CCE are applied for adjusting the steady-state threshold the blanking time.

The calculated values VCEstat and tbl are typical values at room temperature. These values can and do vary in the application (e.g. tolerances of used high voltage diode, resistor RCE, capacitor CCE). The DSCP function is not recommended for over current protection. Application hints If the DSCP function is not used, for example during the experimental phase, SEC_TOP_VCE_IN must be connected with SEC_TOP_GND for disabling SCP @ TOP side and SEC_BOT_VCE_IN must be connected with SEC_BOT_GND for disabling SCP @ BOT side. 11 Rev 0 – 11.08.2010 © by SEMIKRON SKYPER® 32 R UL High Voltage Diode for DSCP The high voltage diode blocks the high voltage during IGBT off state. The connection of this diode between driver and IGBT is shown in the following schematic. Connection High Voltage Diode Characteristics Reverse blocking voltage of the diode shall be higher than the used IGBT. Reverse recovery time of the fast diode shall be lower than VCE rising of the used IGBT. Forward voltage of the diode: 1,5V @ 2mA forward current (Tj=25° C). A collector series resistance RVCE (1k connected for 1700V IGBT operation. / 0,4W) must be Gate resistors The output transistors of the driver are MOSFETs. The sources of the MOSFETs are separately connected to external terminals in order to provide setting of the turn-on and turn-off speed of each IGBT by the external resistors RGon and RGoff. As an IGBT has input capacitance (varying during switching time) which must be charged and discharged, both resistors will dictate what time must be taken to do this. The final value of the resistance is difficult to predict, because it depends on many parameters as DC link voltage, stray inductance of the circuit, switching frequency and type of IGBT. Connection RGon, RGoff Application Hints The gate resistor influences the switching time, switching losses, dv/dt behaviour, etc. and has to be selected very carefully. Due to this influence a general value for the gate resistors cannot be recommended. The gate resistor has to be optimized according to switching behaviour and over voltage peaks within the specific circuitry. By increasing RGon the turn-on speed will decrease. The reverse peak current of the free-wheeling diode will diminish. By increasing RGoff the turn-off speed of the IGBT will decrease. The inductive peak over voltage during turn-off will diminish. In order to ensure locking of the IGBT even when the driver supply voltage is turned off, a resistance (RGE) has to be integrated. Please note: Do not connect the terminals SEC_TOP_IGBT_ON with SEC_TOP_IGBT_OFF and SEC_BOT_IGBT_ON with SEC_BOT_IGBT_OFF, respectively. 12 Rev 0 – 11.08.2010 © by SEMIKRON SKYPER® 32 R UL External Boost Capacitors (BC) The rated gate charge of the driver may be increase by additional boost capacitors to drive IGBT with large gate capacitance.
