  • Abstract
    A new method of IGBT fault protection using double threshold detection and shaped vGE profile of IGBT turn-off with multi-slopes is proposed, based on the analysis of the behavior of IGBTs under different short circuit conditions. Employing the new concept, a computer simulation is used to optimize the selection of threshold reference and VGE profile of turn-off. The recommended scheme is implemented to verify that the IGBT fault protection is reliable and immune from interruption in a SPWM motor drive application
