voltages. When RG is increased, the switching delay

time of the IGBT will also increase. If the delay be-

comes long enough so that the voltage on the detect Pin

30 is greater than VSC at the end of the ttrip delay the

driver will erroneously indicate that a short circuit has

occurred. To avoid this condition the VLA500-01 has

provisions for extending the ttrip delay by connecting a

capacitor (Ctrip) between Pin 29 and VEE (Pins 21 and

22). A curve showing the effect of adding Ctrip on time

is given in the characteristic data section of this data

sheet. The waveform defining trip time (ttrip) is shown

in Figure 3. If ttrip is extended care must be exercised

not to exceed the short-circuit withstanding capability

of the IGBT module. Normally this will be satisfied for

Powerex NF and A-Series IGBT modules as long as the

total shut-down time does not exceed 10µs.

Adjustment of Soft Shutdown Speed

As noted above the VLA500-01 provides a soft turn-off

when a short circuit is detected in order to help limit the

transient voltage surge that occurs when large short

circuit currents are interrupted. The default shutdown

speed will work for most applications so adjustment is

usually not necessary. In this case CS can be omitted.

In some applications using large modules or parallel

connected devices it may be helpful to make the shut-

down even softer. This can be accomplished by

connecting a capacitor (CS) at Pin 27. A curve showing

the effect of CS on short circuit fall time (t1, t2) is given

in the characteristic data section of this data sheet. The

waveform defining the fall time characteristics is shown

in Figure 3.
