    Choosing IGBT

    thank you, if i reduce the switching frequency to 50khz , is it possible to use the hgtg30n60a4d for 50a 50% duty cycle and 300VDC, i increased the switching frequency because my transformer saturates at low frequency and dont know why.

    Choosing IGBT

    Hi all, I want to use an igbt for 60A 160khz and 300v , is the ghtg30n60a4d useful for me. Datasheet is attached

    100A stick welder standby current

    hi all, i have 2kw two switch forward converter using two igbts and toroid transformer, can you please tell me if this layout is good for such application and does it need more optimisation. kind regards

    100A stick welder standby current

    thank you brian, i used the two transistors because the igbt are far from the control ic and to reduce the noise due to long traces and high frequency. about the d5 voltage drope , i think it is not so important because the drive supply voltage is 18v and even with 0.7v forward voltage it can...

    100A stick welder standby current

    Hi All; i have designed a 100 A stick welder using two switch forward converter topology , i used a switching transformer from an old igbt inverter welder , my problem is that the standby current is too high and the igbts are too hot, i tried to increase the switching frequency from 70khz to...

    Welder transformer design

    Hi All, i want to build 5kw welder inverter , so i want to choose a ferrite core for my transformer , the core is a toroid with T63 mm out diameter and 38mm in diameter and 25mm thick and without a gap (MnZn PC40 material), i want to use it in two swich forward converter topology, so is it ok...

    100A inverter welder ( IGBTs keep blowing)

    the Load is almost less than 1 Ohm and i regulate the current to get 30A in the secondry , i get now less then 10A, can i change the working frequency to get this current ? then transformer i am using look like this in the picture it is 24:8 it is used in arc welding equipement.

    100A inverter welder ( IGBTs keep blowing)

    Thanks Salvador12, i have tested the circuit yesterday and it is working without blowing igbts only i have another problem know, with the 0.1ohm sense resistor i hope to get 10A in the primiray because of 1V voltage sense on the UC3845 pin 3 , but when i short circuit the secondry i could not...

    100A inverter welder ( IGBTs keep blowing)

    I have routed the pcb again please take a look if it is good, i have removed the unkown current sense transformer with 0.1ohm sense resistor , i have also removed the gate drive transformer with IR2110 gate driver ic, is this layout best then the first one ?

    100A inverter welder ( IGBTs keep blowing)

    Thanks Fvm is it possible to limit the mains power supply current to 20A or 30A? , for Storage inductor i am using a transformer from an old Inverter Welder, you find attached the transformer and output terminal 1637658405 Thanks Fvm is it possible to limit the mains power supply current to...

    100A inverter welder ( IGBTs keep blowing)

    i mean the HV DC bus or the driver DC Bus !! i dont know the HV +320DC is decoupled with 2,2µF ceramic capacitor but for the gate drive ther is no decoupling

    100A inverter welder ( IGBTs keep blowing)

    i am using this current transformer for sensing 1:300 is it suitable for my application , it is a from china and i could not find any datasheet.

    100A inverter welder ( IGBTs keep blowing)

    Ok for the Pcb layout , i will route it again, but do you have an idea where this negative VCE come from even with antiparalelle diodes on the transistors , the supply voltage is +310VDC and output is current limited with R4 potentiometer.

    100A inverter welder ( IGBTs keep blowing)

    even without C13 the IGBTs fails, ( sorry what do you mean with much bus decoupling ?)
