Abstract:
In this paper, a new circuit topology for high-voltage integrated circuits (HVIC) to improve fast transient burst (FTB) immunity is described. The concept of new circuit topology is detecting negative surge voltage, which disturbs the off-pulse signal from a level-up shifter for edgetriggered signal transmission, and generating an additional off-pulse signal at the end of the surge period. Adopting a 650V-class HVIC with the new circuit topology in a 650V/50A rated IGBT-IPM, the FTB immunity has been improved from ± 2 kV to ± 4 kV in inverter applications for 3-phase motor drives.
