Abstract

A method for measuring and predicting the capacitor ESR values of switching power supplies on line includes the following steps: (1) the electric signal of the circuit of a switching power supply is acquired; (2) the time domain integral value, frequency domain specified harmonic component amplitude and phase of the electric signal are calculated; (3) the time domain integral value, the frequency domain selective harmonic component amplitude and the phase are respectively sent into an MATLAB/Simulink dynamic measurement model, two corresponding capacitor ESR values are worked out, and the MATLAB/Simulink dynamic measurement model then outputs actual capacitor ESR values; and (4) the actual capacitor ESR values at at least six time points are sent into an MATLAB/Simulink dynamic prediction model, and a predicted capacitor ESR value at the next time point is outputted. The method is used for predicting the soft faults of capacitors of switching power supplies and estimating the remaining lives of the capacitors on line, and also can be used in real-time and non-real-time test systems.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electrical state monitoring and fault diagnosis engineering, and relates to a method for online measurement and prediction of the ESR (equivalent series resistance) value of a switching power supply capacitor. Background technique [0002] The failure of switching power supply can be divided into hard failure and soft failure. Hard faults refer to faults that cause circuit topology changes, and soft faults refer to faults caused by device parameters (resistance, inductance, capacitance, and switch parameters, etc.) in the circuit deviate from normal values. Soft faults will reduce the working performance and safety of the system, affect the output performance indicators, and seriously cause short circuit or open circuit of power switching devices, resulting in hard faults, resulting in serious economic losses. At present, electrolytic capacitors are the devices with the highest failure rate in switching power supp...
