Fault Output Signal
(with the external shunt resistance and CR connection)
c1 : Normal operation: IGBT ON and carrying current.
c2 : Short circuit current detection (SC trigger).
c3 : Hard IGBT gate interrupt.
c4 : IGBT turns OFF.
c5 : Fault output timer operation starts: The pulse width of the fault output signal is set by the external capacitor CFO
.
c6 : Input “L” : IGBT OFF state.
c7 : Input “H”: IGBT ON state, but during the active period of fault output the IGBT doesn’t turn ON.
c8 : IGBT OFF state
