摘要： An active drive circuit for high power IGBTs provides optimized switching performance for both turn-on and turn-off by incorporating a three-stage action to improve performance characteristics. The gate drive circuit includes a semiconductor switch such as a MOSFET connected in series with a low resistance gate turn-on resistor between the supply line and the gate input line, and a parallel connected bipolar transistor. During the first and third stages of turn-on, the MOSFET switch is turned on to provide rapid charging of the gate, whereas during the second stage the bipolar transistor is turned on to provide a controlled level of current charging of the gate. Similarly, a switch such as an MOSFET is connected in series with a low resistance gate turn-off resistor between the turn-off supply voltage line and the gate input line, and a bipolar transistor is connected in parallel therewith across the supply line and the gate input line. During the first and second stages of turn-off, the MOSFET switch is turned on to provide rapid discharging of the gate whereas during the second stage the bipolar transistor is turned on to provide a controlled level of discharge current from the gate.

摘要： A method and system for compensating for line imbalances in line commutated converters. The controller includes a phase-locked loop (PLL) synchronizing tool which receives the line to line voltage signals and generates firing angle and frequency signals used for synchronizing the two input signals. The PLL controller, in addition to the firing angle and frequency signals, also generates signals representative of filtered values of amplitudes for each of the line to line voltage signals. A voltage imbalance compensation processor associated with the bridge firing controller receives the filtered amplitude signals and also a signal representative of the firing sector of the bridge. The voltage imbalance compensation processor generates, based upon the sector signal and the received filtered amplitude signals a amplitude signal used by a current regulator which is compensated for line imbalances present in the line voltage.

摘要： A method and system for compensating for voltage notches in phase locked loop (PLL) control devices. A bridge firing controller receives signals representative of two of the line to line voltages received by the bridge. The controller includes a PLL synchronizing tool which receives the line to line voltage signals and generates a synchronizing phase error signal for aligning the phases of the two input signals. The controller, for a predetermined period following bridge firing, determines whether a voltage notch has occurred. If so, the controller substitutes model control signals for actual control signals so as to reduce the effect of the notch on the generated phase error signal used for synchronization. If not, the controller continues to use the actual control signals to generate the phase error signal. Once the predetermined period has expired, the controller utilizes the actual control signals to generate the phase error signal.

摘要： A distributed energy resource (DER) switching system and method for connecting a DER to an electrical power system (EPS) protector, wherein the DER has a reactance-to-resistance ratio higher than the reactance-to-resistance ratio of the EPS protector. The DER switching system includes an input for receiving power from the DER, and an output for providing power from the DER to the EPS protector. The DER switching system is designed to effectively lower the higher reactance-to-resistance ratio of the DER during an over-current fault so that, during the fault, the effective reactance-to-resistance ratio at the output of the DER switching system is lower than the reactance-to-resistance ratio of the EPS protector. The method includes effectively lowering the reactance-to-resistance ratio of the DER by varying the operating state of a switching device in a controlled manner during the fault.

摘要： A method and system for determining zero current level occurrences in a reversible power converter without requiring additional component complexity and costs. A digital controller selectively determines the line to line voltage for the most recently fired thyristor pair. The selected line to line voltage is identified as the bridge reconstruction voltage and is compared against the actual bridge output voltage for the conducting bridge. The difference between the two voltage signals is identified as the bridge error voltage and the sign of its magnitude is indicative of a load current zero level occurrence. A zero current level occurrence happens whenever the bridge error voltage drops below zero. This indication is positive and substantially instantaneous and safely enables the reversal of power flow without the risk of line faults due to cross-bridge short circuits.

摘要： A short circuit protection circuit for IGBTs and similar power switch devices. Device collector voltage, e.g., desaturation voltage, is monitored to detect rapidly the occurrence of a short circuit fault. The voltage between the power device emitter and the Kelvin emitter terminals of the device preferably is also monitored and integrated to obtain an estimate of the current flowing through the power switch device. Circuit protection is implemented if either the measured collector to emitter voltage exceeds a selected level or the estimated current through the device exceeds a selected level. Upon the detection of the fault, a capacitor in parallel with a zener diode is connected between the power switch gate and ground. Thus, following a fault, the gate voltage is driven quickly to a low level as the voltage on the gate is discharged through the capacitor. The zener diode establishes a clamp voltage at a selected level of gate voltage that permits controlled current flow through the power switching device that is within the capacity of the device so that the device is not damaged. A pre-charged capacitor is then connected between the gate and ground to turn off the power switching device gradually as the pre-charged capacitor discharges into the gate. The voltage level on the pre-charged capacitor is established by a zener diode connected in parallel thereto.
