摘要:
The switching of the positive (or pullup power) and negative (or pulldown power) semiconductor elements, are controlled by driving circuits which are in turn controlled by level shift circuits which have a first current control circuit and a second current control circuit coupled in parallel and this parallel connection is coupled in series with the control N-channel MOSFET of a current mirror circuit in a circuit loop arrangement with a control power supply. The first and second current control circuits are responsive to first and second control pulses of pulse widths t.sub.1 and t.sub.1 +t.sub.2, in accordance with a driving signal such that the first current control circuit supplies a first current level to the control N-channel MOSFET during the first time period t.sub.1 and the second current control circuit supplies a second current level, smaller than that of the first current level, thereto for a predetermined time period t.sub.1 +t.sub.2 thereby resulting in a current flow through the controlled N-channel MOSFET of the current mirror circuit of a current value corresponding to the sum of the first and second current levels. The controlled N-channel MOSFET, providing ON/OFF control of a P channel MOSFET, is disposed in a second circuit loop which is powered by a high voltage power supply. This P-channel MOSFET, coupled to the high voltage power supply, supplies an output signal to a load in response to the current flowing through the controlled N-channel MOSFET.

The switching of upper and lower switching elements is controlled by respective upper and lower arm driving circuits. Those switching elements are connected in series across a primary d.c. power source and their successive switching generates a drive voltage which is applied to a load. A secondary d.c. power source is connected to the lower arm driving circuit while the upper arm driving circuit is connected to a capacitor connected to the high potential side of the primary d.c. power source. The capacitor is charged from the secondary d.c. power source through a charging circuit. This driving arrangement is particularly applicable to multi-phase driving circuits.

A three-phase bridge inverter for controlling a motor with a variable speed includes a drive circuit therefor and an overcurrent protection circuit on one integrated chip. The inverter IC can be operated by directly inputting a direct current obtained by rectifying commercial 100 V. Thus, the inverter chip reduces the size and the weight of a system, improves the usability, lowers the cost thereof and permits mass production fabrication. Also, the life of the IC is increased by detecting current flowing through the inverter and the temperature of the chip and stopping the operation, when an abnormality is found.
