selection guide for the BG2A is shown in Figure
2. The board will normally be operated with two input voltage sources. A 5V logic source (+V L ) provides drive
for the high speed opto-couplers inside the hybrid gate drivers and pull-up voltage for the fault signal isolation
optos OP1 and OP2. A 15V power supply (+V S ) provides power for the gate driver and is connected to the
primary side of the hybrid gate driver’s built in DC to DC converter at pins 1,2 and 3,4. The +15V source is
decoupled with the low impedance electrolytic capacitor C1. In the BG2A circuit a 1000μF capacitor was
selected for C1 so that the same capacitor could be used for C1, C2, C3, C5 and C6. In most applications this
will be much larger than necessary to support the drivers ripple current. Typical applications will be able to use
100μF or less depending on the load current and the distance from the main 15V supply filter capacitors. The
hybrid’s built in DC to DC converter provides isolated gate drive power which consists of +16.4V (V CC ) at pin 19
and -9V (V EE ) at pins 21 and 22. These supplies share a common ground at pin 20. The gate drive power
supplies are decoupled using the low impedance electrolytic capacitors C2, C3, C5 and C6. It is very important
that these capacitors have low enough impedance and sufficient ripple current capability to provide the required
high current gate drive pulses. The 1000μF capacitors used on the BG2A are sized to supply 12A gate pulses
at a 20kHz rate. If the application is operating at lower frequency or lower peak current it may be possible to
reduce the size of these capacitors. Consult the hybrid gate driver individual data sheets for details on selecting
the decoupling capacitors.
The V EE and V CC supplies are connected to the drivers output stage to produce gate drive at pins 23 and
24. The gate drive current is adjusted by selecting the appropriate series gate resistance (R G ). R G will normally
be adjusted to provide suitable drive for the module being used. For more information see Powerex IGBT
module application notes. Protection against gate voltage surges is provided by DZ2, DZ3, DZ5, and DZ6.
These zener diodes also help to control short circuit currents by shunting miller current away from the gate.
Short circuit protection is provided by means of desaturation detection. For details on the operation of
this circuit consult the specific data sheet. The collector voltage of each IGBT is detected through the series
connected high voltage blocking diodes D1, D2 and D3, D4. The combined blocking voltage of the series
connected diodes must be equal to or greater than the V CES rating of the IGBT. For applications using lower
voltage devices it may be possible to use a single detection diode. DZ1 and DZ4 protect the gate driver’s detect
input (Pin 30) from voltage surges during reverse recovery of the high voltage blocking diodes. The CS and CT
capacitors are used to adjust the drivers protection circuit trip time and slow shut-down speed. The driver ’ s
default settings are sufficient for many applications and therefore these capacitors can be omitted. For details
on the use of CT and CS consult the specific data sheet.
If th e gate driver’s short circuit protection is activated it immediately shuts down the gate drive and pulls
pin 28 low to indicate a fault. Current flows from Vcc (pin 19) through the LED in fault isolation opto (OP1, OP2)
to pin 28. The transistor in the fault isolation opto turns on and pulls the fault signal line (FO) at pin 4 of CN1 low.
This opto isolated signal can now be used by the controller to detect the fault condition.
Interface Circuit Requirements: A typical interface circuit for the BG2A is shown in Figure 3. A single +15V
control power supply (+V S ) is connected to pin 5 of CN1 with its ground at pin 6. This supply provides all of the
