Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of switching power supply circuits, and particularly relates to a snubber circuit for a MOS transistor of a multi-parallel flyback switching power supply. Background Art

[0002] When a flyback switching power supply operates, the flyback MOS transistor is in a state of high-frequency repeated on and off switching. Due to the existence of the leakage inductance Lm of the flyback transformer and the parasitic capacitance of the MOS transistor, the on and off state switching of the flyback MOS transistor will cause a large VDS voltage (the sum of the bus voltage, the secondary emission voltage, and the transformer leakage inductance spike voltage), which is very likely to exceed the maximum voltage that the flyback MOS transistor itself can withstand, resulting in breakdown and damage of the flyback MOS transistor. At the same time, the stress spikes caused by the high-frequency switching state switching will generate strong noise pollution, forming electromagnetic interference that affects the operation of the whole machine.

[0003] The snubber circuits of traditional flyback switching power supplies each set a corresponding snubber circuit for each branch MOS transistor, and all use RCD snubbing. This RCD snubber circuit will cause a large power consumption and affect the working efficiency of the circuit. At the same time, each branch has a corresponding snubber circuit, which will result in a large PCB layout space and high cost. Summary of the Invention

[0014] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 , which shows an absorption circuit for the MOS transistor of a multi-parallel flyback switching power supply provided by an embodiment of the present invention, used to control the voltage between the drain and source of the MOS transistor, including a first flyback circuit, a second flyback circuit, and an absorption circuit.

The absorption circuit includes a fast recovery diode, a high-frequency capacitor, and a transient voltage suppression diode. When the MOS transistors in the first flyback circuit and the second flyback circuit are turned off, the drain voltage of the MOS transistor charges the high-frequency capacitor through the fast recovery diode, and the high-frequency capacitor absorbs energy.

[0016] Preferably, the second flyback circuit includes a second transformer T2, a second MOS transistor Q2, a second Schottky diode D105, and a second electrolytic capacitor CE2; a first end of the primary side T2-A of the second transformer T2 is connected to the circuit input terminal VDC, a second end of the primary side T2-A of the second transformer T2 is connected to the drain of the second MOS transistor Q2, and the source of the second MOS transistor Q2 is grounded to GND; a second end of the secondary side T2-B of the second transformer T2 is connected to the anode of the second Schottky diode D105, the cathode of the second Schottky diode D105 is connected to the positive electrode of the second electrolytic capacitor CE2, and a second end of the secondary side T2-B of the second transformer T2 is connected to the negative electrode of the second electrolytic capacitor CE2; the positive electrode of the second electrolytic capacitor CE2 is connected to the output terminal OUT2 of the second flyback circuit, and the negative electrode of the second electrolytic capacitor CE2 is grounded to GND.

[0017] Preferably, the absorption circuit includes a transient voltage suppression diode D101, a first high-frequency capacitor C101, a second high-frequency capacitor C102, a third high-frequency capacitor C103, a first fast-recovery diode D102, a second fast-recovery diode D104, and a bead inductor L101; both ends of the first high-frequency capacitor C101 are connected in parallel across both ends of the primary side T1-A of the first transformer T1, and a connection point between the first high-frequency capacitor C101, the second end of the primary side T1-A of the first transformer T1, and the drain of the first MOS transistor Q1 is connected to the anode of the first fast-recovery diode D102; both ends of the third high-frequency capacitor C103 are connected in parallel across both ends of the primary side T2-A of the second transformer T2, and a connection point between the third high-frequency capacitor C103, the second end of the primary side T2-A of the second transformer T2, and the drain of the second MOS transistor Q2 is connected to the anode of the second fast-recovery diode D104; the cathode of the first fast-recovery diode D102 is connected to the cathode of the second fast-recovery diode D104 and is simultaneously connected to the first end of the second high-frequency capacitor C102, and the second end of the second high-frequency capacitor C102 is grounded to GND; the anode of the transient voltage suppression diode D101 is connected to the circuit input terminal VDC, and the cathode of the transient voltage suppression diode D101 is connected to a connection point between the cathode of the first fast-recovery diode D102, the cathode of the second fast-recovery diode D104, and the first end of the second high-frequency capacitor C102 through the bead inductor L101.

[0018] When the circuit is operating, when the first MOS transistor Q1 and the second MOS transistor Q2 are turned on, the cathode voltage of the transient voltage suppression diode D101 is substantially the same as the bus voltage; the first fast-recovery diode D102 and the second fast-recovery diode D104 are turned off. At this time, the current direction in the circuit is asFigure 2 as shown

[0019] When the first MOS transistor Q1 and the second MOS transistor Q2 are turned off, since the VDS voltage of the MOS transistor cannot change suddenly, the current will charge the parasitic capacitance Coss at both ends of the MOS transistor. At this time, the parasitic capacitance Coss at both ends of the MOS transistor resonates with the leakage inductance Lm of the transformer, resulting in a VDS spike voltage across the MOS transistor.

At the same time, the first fast-recovery diode D102 and the second fast-recovery diode D104 are respectively turned on, so that the second high-frequency capacitor C102 can absorb voltage energy. When the voltage reaches the operating voltage of the transient voltage suppression diode D101, the transient voltage suppression diode D101 acts to achieve voltage clamping, clamping the voltage to the sum of the bus voltage and the operating voltage of the transient voltage suppression diode D101, thereby controlling the voltage stress of the flyback MOS transistor. At this time, the current direction in the circuit is as Figure 3 as shown

[0021] In the above absorption circuit for the MOS transistors of the multi-path parallel flyback switching power supply, the high-frequency capacitors C101 and C103 respectively form a loop with the primary-side leakage inductance Lm of the transformers in the first flyback circuit and the second flyback circuit, reducing the voltage amplitude generated by the resonance of the leakage inductance Lm and the MOS transistor parasitic capacitance Coss. At the same time, the fast-recovery diodes D102 and D104 are turned on, so that the high-frequency capacitor C102 absorbs voltage energy, and the transient voltage suppression diode D101 performs voltage clamping to control the terminal voltage of the MOS transistor in the flyback circuit. In this technical solution, only one transient voltage suppression diode, high-frequency capacitor, and fast-recovery diode effectively solve the problem of the voltage stress of the MOS transistors in the multi-path parallel flyback switching power supply. The circuit is verified by an actual multi-path parallel flyback switching power supply, and it works stably and reliably, has a good MOS transistor stress control effect, and a low cost. The circuit structure of the present invention is simple, easy to implement, low in cost, and convenient for popularization.
