Abstract

The invention discloses a hybrid power converter and a control method thereof. The hybrid power converter comprises an inductor connected to a first end of the hybrid power converter, and a switched capacitor network is connected between the inductor and the second end of the hybrid power converter, wherein the switched capacitor network comprises a plurality of switching elements and a pluralityof capacitors; the switching elements are controlled to be turned on and off according to a plurality of control signals so as to periodically change connection paths of the plurality of capacitors such that the inductor and the plurality of capacitors are charged and discharged, the hybrid power converter adjusts a duty cycle of the control signal so as to convert an input voltage into a desiredoutput voltage. The hybrid power converter can improve the output voltage regulation capability of the circuit, realize circuit miniaturization and improve the conversion efficiency of the circuit.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a power converter, and more particularly, to a hybrid power converter in which both an inductor and a capacitor are used as energy storage elements and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] A power converter is a power module that converts an input voltage waveform into a desired output voltage or output current. The power converter includes a switching element and an energy storage element. The switching element is turned on and off periodically according to a control signal, and the energy storage element stores and releases electric energy accordingly, thereby providing an output voltage signal at the output terminal of the power converter. [0003] In a power converter that uses an inductor as an energy storage element, a roughly constant output voltage or output current can be obtained by using a feedback loop to adjust the duty cycle of the control signal, and the output can be adjusted by using ...
