10.2.2.8 DESAT Diode and DESAT Threshold

The DESAT function of the diode is used to conduct forward current, allowing sensing of the saturated collector-to-emitter voltage of the IGBT, V(DESAT), (when the IGBT is on) and to block high voltages (when the IGBT is off). During the short transition time when the IGBT is switching, a commonly a high dVCE/dt voltage ramp rate occurs across the IGBT. This results in a charging current ICHARGE = C(D-DESAT) × dVCE/dt, charging the blanking capacitor. C(D-DESAT) is the diode capacitance at DESAT.

To minimize this current and avoid false DESAT triggering, fast switching diodes with low capacitance are recommended. As the diode capacitance builds a voltage divider with the blanking capacitor, large collector voltage transients appear at DESAT attenuated by the ratio of 1+ C(BLANK) / C(D-DESAT).

Because the sum of the DESAT diode forward-voltage and the IGBT collector-emitter voltage make up the voltage at the DESAT-pin, VF + VCE = V(DESAT), the VCE level, which triggers a fault condition, can be modified by adding multiple DESAT diodes in series as shown in Equation 1.

Equation 1. VCE-FAULT(TH) = 9 V – n × VF

where

  • n is the number of DESAT diodes

When using two diodes instead of one, diodes with half the required maximum reverse-voltage rating may be chosen.
