Gate Circuit Check
Step 8
Test Equipment - Ungrounded oscilloscope with X 10 probe
Set scope to 2V/div. and 2mSec., in order to observe the gate firing pulses.
4. Using the oscilloscope, measure between the gate and emitter pins which lead
to the output IGBT.
5. Run the inverter at 60HZ, and compare the waveform you see with the one
shown below.
6. Stop the inverter.
7. Repeat steps 1 through 3 measuring all six gate pulses.
• Never power up the inverter with the gate wires removed or the IGBT will be
damaged!
