The board is available from Infineon in sampling quantities. The properties of this part are described in the datasheet chapter of this document, whereas the remaining paragraphs provide information intended to enable the customer to copy, modify and qualify the design for production, according to their own specific requirements. The design of the EVAL-2EDL05I06PF was performed with respect to the environmental conditions described in this document. The design was tested as described in this document, but not qualified regarding manufacturing, lifetime or over the full ambient operating conditions. The boards provided by Infineon are subjected to functional testing only. Due to their purpose Evaluation Boards are not subjected to the same procedures regarding Returned Material Analysis (RMA), Process Change Notification (PCN) and Product Discontinuation (PD) as regular products. These Evaluation Boards are used for development support only and should not be used as reference design for volume production. See Legal Disclaimer and Warnings for further restrictions on Infineons warranty and liability.

The digital 5V supply voltage is generated internally by an Infineon voltage regulator. The evaluation board does not provide an over voltage supply monitoring, therefore the user has to ensure that the voltages are in the correct range. Voltages above the max. values will lead to damages of the IGBT drivers. The availability of the supply voltage is visible over the green status LED. The high-Side gate driver is supplied over the internally ultra-fast bootstrap diode of the 2EDL05I06PF. To ensure that the bootstrap capacitor is charged before the high side IGBT is switched on, the low side IGBT has to be switched on for a dedicated time. 3.2 Under voltage lockout The +15V supply VCC is monitored by the 2EDL05I06PF. In case of an undervoltage the driver output is switched off. The thresholds for the low side are typically V CCUV+ = 12.5 V (positive going) and VCCUV– = 11.6 V (negative going). The thresholds for the high side are typically VBSUV+ = 11.6 V (positive going) and VBSUV– = 10.7 V (negative going). 3.3 Short circuit detection The 2EDL05I06PF evaluation board provides short circuit detection by measuring the voltage drop over a 20mΩ shunt. This voltage drop is compared to a fixed voltage level of 454,5mV. If the current reaches a value of typ. 22,7A a short circuit is detected, the gate driver inputs HIN and LIN are switched to ground and the driver outputs are switched off. This status is reported by the OC LED. The OC event is latched by the flip-flop circuit shown in Figure 20 and must be reset by switching the RESET signal to ground. Figure 3 Shunt connection in the power circuit Application Note 9 Revision 2.0, 2014-04-14 EiceDRIVER™ Driver IC evaluation board EVAL-2EDL05I06PF Application Note Electrical features Figure 4 Overcurrent comparator circuit Figure 5 shows the signals of the bottom side driver and IGBT during a simulated short circuit. As shown, there is a delay of approximately 2.7µs between the overcurrent detection and the output being switch off. During this delay time, the current continues to rise until the IGBT desaturates and the current is clamped to a level corresponding to the used gate voltage. In case of the 15V supply and IKD04N60RF IGBT, the IGBT desaturates at 28 - 30 A as shown in Figure 5. In case of a lower supply voltage the desaturation current may be below the overcurrent detection level. In such a case, as well as in case of regular usage of the overcurrent protection (e.g. in case of short circuit respectively shoot through protection tests), it is recommended to replace the 20m shunt (as supplied with the demo board) for a 50m shunt. This will reduce the current detection level to approx. 9.1A which would allow reliable overcurrent detection in the whole supply voltage range 13.2 -17.5 V and earlier overcurrent detection.

The amplified voltage is available for the user at connector X1 pins A9 and B9. The amplified voltage is calculated with V = Ishunt x Rshunt x 10. Due to inherent component tolerances, the amplifier output should be calibrated in case of using it for a critical current control.

An additional interlock function prevents the two outputs from being activated simultaneously. Hardware deadtime does not block shoot-through. It is a basic item to avoid deep shoot through. The general recommendation for dead time is to be approx. 1µs. 3.6 IGBT turn - on / off The switching characteristic of the IGBTs is defined by the gate resistors RG1B, RG1T, RG2B and RG2T. It is adapted to get as fast as possible voltage slopes at the output without to overload the gate driver output. There is the possibility to adapt the switching characteristic to specific applications or to different IGBTs by replacing the values of RG1B and RG1T. The use of RG2B and RG2T together with DG1B and DG1T makes it possible to change the on-switching and the off-switching slopes of the IGBT independent to each other.

If necessary, a higher deadtime can be generated by the input signals LIN and HIN. Figure 3-10 shows waveform for bottom IGBT turn-off and top IGBT turn-on with the deadtime of 500ns.

If a bigger DC-Link capacity is necessary it has to be connected externally to the connectors V+HV and GND_HV.
