SEMIDRIVERTM SKHI 24
Hybrid dual drivers The driver generation SKHI 24 is supplementing the SKHI 21/22 and is suitable for all available medium and high power range IGBT and MOSFETs. It can be said that the SKHI 24 is a function-compatible further developed SKHI 22B. It is recommended to use the SKHI 24 for any new design. General description The new driver generation SKHI 22A/B, SKHI 21A and also SKHI 24 are hybrid components which may directly be mounted to the PCB. All devices necessary for driving, voltage supply, error monitoring and potential separation are integrated in the driver. In order to adapt the driver to the used power module, only very few additional wiring will be necessary. The forward voltage of the IGBT is detected by an integrated short-circuit protection, which will turn off the module when a certain threshold is exceeded. In case of short-circuit or too low supply voltage the integrated error memory is set and an error signal is generated. The driver is connected to a controlled + 15 V-supply voltage. The input signal level is 0/5 V.

Fig. 2 SKHI 24 - Selection of interlock-times: "High"-level can be achieved by no connection or connecting to 5 V. Short pulse suppression The integrated short pulse suppression avoids very short switching pulses at the power semiconductor caused by high-frequency interference pulses at the driver input signals. Switching pulses shorter than 500ns are suppressed and not transmitted to the IGBT. Power supply monitoring (VS) A controlled 15 V-supply voltage is applied to the driver. If it falls below 13 V, an error is monitored and the error output signal switches to low level. Error monitoring and error memory The error memory is set in case of under-voltage or short-circuit of the IGBTs. In case of short-circuit, an error signal is transmitted by the VCE-input via the pulse transformers to the error memory. The error memory will lock all switching pulses to the IGBTs and trigger the error output (P8) of the driver. The error output consists of an open collector transistor, which directs the signal to earth in case of error. SEMIKRON recommends the user to provide for a pull-up resistor directly connected to the error evaluation board and to adapt the error level to the desired signal voltage this way. The open collector transistor may be connected to max. 30 V / 15 mA. If several SKHI 24 are used in one device, the error terminals may also be paralleled. The error memory may only be reset, if no error is pending and both cycle signal inputs are set to low for > 12 s at the same time. Pulse transformer set The transformer set consists of two pulse transformers. One of them is used bidirectional for turn-on and turn-off signals of the IGBT and the error feedback between primary and secondary side, the other one for the DC/ DC-converter. The DC/DC-converter serves as potential-separation and power supply for the two secondary sides of the driver. The isolation voltage is 4000 VAC . The secondary side consists of two sym-metrical driver switches integrating the following components: Supply voltage The voltage supply consists of a rectifier, a capacitor, a voltage controller for - 8 V and + 15 V and a + 10 V reference voltage.

Technical explanations1
Description of the circuit block diagram and the functions of the driver The block diagram (fig.1) shows the inputs of the driver (primary side) on the left side and the outputs (secondary side) on the right. The following functions are allocated to the primary side: Input-Schmitt-trigger, positive logic (input high = IGBT on). It is also possible to drive the circuit input with 15 V logic, but a 6.8 k resistor has to be connected in series with the input pin (and the internal 100 resistor). Interlock circuit and deadtime generation of the IGBT If one IGBT is turned on, the other IGBT of a halfbridge cannot be switched. Additionally, a digitally adjustable interlocking time is generated by the driver (see fig. 2), which has to be longer than the turn-off delay time of the IGBT. This is to avoid that one IGBT is turned on before the other one is not completely discharged. This protection-function may be neutralized by switching the select input (pin15) (see fig. 2). fig. 2 documents possible interlock-times. High" value can be achieved with no connection and connection to 5 V as well.
1. The following descriptions apply to the use of the hybrid driver for IGBTs as well as for power MOSFETs. For the reason of shortness, only IGBTs will be mentioned in the following. The designations collector" and emitter" will refer to IGBTs, whereas for the MOSFETs drain" and source" are to be read instead.

Gate driver The output transistors of the power drivers 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 by the external resistors RON and ROFF. Do not connect the terminals ST1 with ST2 and SB1 with SB2, respectively. The IGBT is turned on by the driver at +15V by RON and turned off at - 8 V by ROFF. RON and ROFF may not chosen below 1,5 . In order to ensure locking of the IGBT even when the driver supply voltage is turned off, a 22 k-resistor versus the emitter output (E) has been integrated at output GOFF. VCE-monitoring The VCE-monitoring controls the collector-emitter voltage VCE of the IGBT during its on-state. VCE is internally limited to 10 V. If the reference voltage VCEref is exceeded, the IGBT will be switched off 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 the 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 to be connected between the terminals CCE (ST4/SB4) and E (ST3/SB3). It may not exceed 10 V. The time constant for the delay of VCEref may be increased by an external capacitor CCE, which is connected in parallel to RCE. It controls the time tmin which passes after turn-on of the IGBT before the VCE-monitoring is activated. This makes possible any adaptation to the switching behavior of any of the IGBTs. After tmin has passed, the VCE-monitoring will be triggered as soon as VCE > VCEref and will turn off the IGBT.
Dimensioning of RCE and CCE can be done in three steps: 1. Calculate the maximum forward voltage from the datasheet of the used IGBT and determine VCEstat. 2. Calculate approximate value of RCE according to equation (1) or (1.1) from VCEstat or determine RCE by using fig. 3. 3. Determine tmin and calculate CCE according to equations (2) and (3). Typical values are for 1200V IGBT: VCEstat = 5 V; tmin = 1,45 s, RCE = 18 k, CCE = 330 pF for 1700V IGBT:VCEstat = 6 V; tmin = 3 s, RCE = 36 k, CCE = 470 pF Adaptation to 1700 V IGBT When using 1700 V IGBTs it is necessary to connect a 1 k / 0,4 W adaptation resistor between the VCE-terminal (ST9/ SB9) and the respective collector. Adaptation to error signal level An open collector transistor is used as error terminal, which, in case of error, leads the signal to earth. The signal has to be adapted to the evaluation circuit voltage level by means of an pull-up resistor. The maximum load applied to the transistor shall be 30 V / 15 mA. IGBT switching speed adjustment The IGBT switching speed may be adjusted by the resistors RON and ROFF. By increasing RON the turn-on speed will decrease. The reverse peak current of the free-wheeling diode will diminish. SEMIKRON recommends to adjust RON to a level that will keep the turn-on delay time td(on) of the IGBT < 1 s. By increasing ROFF the turn-off speed of the IGBT will decrease. The inductive peak over voltage during turn-off will diminish. The minimum gate resistor value for ROFF and RON is 1,5 . Typical values for RON and ROFF recommended by SEMIKRON are given in fig. 4. Interlock time adjustment Fig. 2 shows the possible interlocking times between output1 and output2. Interlocking times are adjusted by connecting the terminals TDT1 (P13), TDT2 (P14) and SELECT (P15) either to earth/ GND (P16) according to the required function or by leaving them open.

Fig. 4 Typical values for external components
A typical interlocking time value is 3,25 s (P14 = GND; P13 and P15 open). ATTENTION: If the terminals TDT1, TDT2 and SELECT are not connected, eventually connected track on PC-board may not be longer than 20 mm in order to avoid interference. SEMIKRON recommends to start-up operation using the values recommended by SEMIKRON and to optimize the values gradually according to the IGBT switching behaviour and overvoltage peaks within the specific circuitry. Driver performance and application limits The drivers are designed for application with halfbridges and single modules with a maximum gate charge QGE < 5 C. 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 also shown in the corresponding module datasheet curves. It should, however, be considered that the SKHI 24 is turned on at + 15 V and turned off at - 8 V. Therefore, the gate voltage will change by 23 V during each switching cycle. Unfortunately, most datasheets do not indicate negative gate voltages. In order to determine the required charge, the upper leg of the charge curve may be prolonged to + 23 V for an approximately determination of approximate charge per switch. The medium output current of the driver is determined by the switching frequency and the gate charge. For the SKHI 24 the maximum medium output current is IoutAVmax < 80 mA. The maximum switching frequency fMAX may be calculated with the following formula, the maximum value however being 50 kHz due to switching losses:

Fig. 5 Maximum switching frequency in dependence of rated current @ 25 heatsink temperature. C Further application notes The CMOS-inputs of the hybrid driver are extremely sensitive to overvoltage. Voltages higher than VS + 0,3 V or below - 0,3 V may destroy these inputs. Therefore, control signal overvoltages exceeding the above values have to be avoided. 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 CMOS-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! The connecting leads between hybrid driver and the power module should be as short as possible, the driver leads should be twisted. Any parasitic inductances within the DC-link have to be minimized. Overvoltages may be absorbed by C- or RCD-snubbers between the 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 accross the IGBT. An oscillographic control will be necessary. In addition to that 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 such events. Repeated turn-on of the IGBT into a short circuit with a high frequency may destroy the device. Driver Electronic - PCB Drivers 1921
