[0034] The single-supply bootstrap level transfer isolation drive circuit 52 is composed of components such as optocoupler IC3, PNP transistors Q2 and Q3. Optocoupler IC3 realizes level transfer isolation control, and resistor R5 and ceramic capacitor C9 are acceleration circuits that increase the steepness of the PWM pulse leading and trailing edges, shorten the rise and fall times, reduce losses, and improve power efficiency. PNP transistor Q2 is the driver transistor, PNP transistor Q3 is the bleeder and accelerator transistor, diode D3 is the isolation diode, resistor R3 is the voltage reduction and current limiting protection resistor, resistor R2 is the reverse bias resistor to ensure that the driver transistor Q2 is cut off when there is no PWM signal, R12 is the bias resistor for PNP transistor Q3, and Zener diode DS1 is the clamping protection diode to protect the gate and source of the series switch Q1 in the BUCK circuit from excessive voltage breakdown during the high level of the PWM signal, especially at the beginning of startup when there is no output voltage and the gate and source of switch Q1 bear the entire input voltage, making it extremely easy to break down the gate and source of switch Q1. Therefore, the parameter settings of resistor R3 and Zener diode DS1 are crucial to the safe and reliable operation of this circuit. When the PWM is high level, the series switch Q1 is turned on, and the source voltage is approximately equal to the input voltage VIN. If the gate voltage is not raised, the series switch Q1 will be turned off by itself and cannot conduct continuously. To keep Q1 continuously on, the gate-source voltage must be increased. This can be achieved using an independent power supply or a bootstrap voltage boost circuit. Using an independent power supply increases circuit complexity and cost, while using a bootstrap voltage boost circuit is the simplest and most effective method, requiring fewer components and lowering costs. Diode D1 and electrolytic capacitor C3 form a bootstrap voltage boosting circuit. During the low-level PWM period, the internal LED and phototransistor of the optocoupler are cut off, as are PNP transistor Q2 and isolation diode D3. The input power supply VIN charges electrolytic capacitor C5 through isolation diode D1. The charging voltage is close to the power supply voltage, and PNP transistor Q3 saturates and conducts, quickly discharging the gate-source charge of series switch Q1, ensuring that series switch Q1 is quickly cut off, making the falling edge of the PWM pulse steep and improving power efficiency. During the high-level PWM period, the internal LED and phototransistor of the optocoupler are turned on, and PNP transistor Q2 and isolation diode D3 also turn on. The gate-source of series switch Q1 receives a driving voltage and also turns on, increasing the output voltage. Since the voltage across electrolytic capacitor C3 cannot change abruptly, the emitter potential of PNP transistor Q2 also increases. The voltage of electrolytic capacitor C3 supplies power to maintain the conduction of series switch Q1. At this time, isolation diode D1 is reverse biased and cut off. The selection of circuit parameters for this part should be based on the highest input voltage, choosing optocouplers and PNP transistors with higher voltage resistance.

[0035] The BUCK circuit 53 consists of a series switch Q1, a freewheeling diode D5, a filter inductor L1, and a filter electrolytic capacitor C4. Their parameters can be selected according to power design requirements. The rated current of the series switch Q1 is generally selected to be 1.5 to 2 times the actual current, and its drain-source voltage should generally be greater than or equal to 2 to 3 times the input voltage. The forward rated current of the freewheeling diode D5 must be equal to the maximum drain current of the series switch, i.e., greater than the load current. The reverse withstand voltage of the freewheeling diode D5 should generally be greater than or equal to 2 to 3 times the input voltage. The minimum filter inductance L1 can be calculated using the following formula:

[0036] In the formula U O To output DC voltage, U I Where is the input voltage, f is the operating frequency of the switching power supply, and I... Omin This is the minimum load current.

[0037] The filter capacitor C4 can be adjusted according to the required AC component of the output voltage ΔU. O The results, along with other given design data, are calculated using the following formula:

[0038] Therefore, choosing a higher switching frequency can reduce the filter inductance and filter capacitance, reduce size and weight, and increase the power density of the BUCK circuit.

[0039] The LC filter circuit 54 further reduces output voltage ripple. After passing through two LC filters, inductors L2 and L3 are small-capacity inductors, electrolytic capacitors C5 and C6 are filter capacitors, and non-polar capacitors C7 and C18 are high-frequency filter capacitors. The filtering effect also depends on the location of the feedback voltage connection to the output. The optimal solution is to connect it to the output terminal of the energy storage inductor, because the ripple of the energy storage inductor is the largest and unavoidable; subsequent filtering can greatly reduce the ripple voltage. If the feedback voltage is connected to the regulated output terminal, the subsequent inductor is also treated as an energy storage inductor, and ripple voltage is unavoidable.

[0040] The adjustable output voltage sampling circuit 55 consists of resistor R13 and potentiometer RP1. It samples the output voltage and feeds it back to pin 2 of the pulse width modulation chip IC2 to achieve closed-loop voltage regulation control. Adjusting the potentiometer RP1 changes the magnitude of the output DC voltage. The output voltage can be calculated using the following formula:

[0041]

[0042] The output current sampling circuit 56 consists of a current sampling resistor R16, and a 5mΩ constantan wire is used to reduce losses.

[0043] The circuit connection of the voltage and current controllable BUCK circuit 5 is as follows: the startup circuit 50, the single-supply bootstrap level transfer isolation drive circuit 52, and the BUCK circuit 53 are electrically connected to the output terminal of the third rectifier filter circuit 46, respectively. The startup circuit 50 is electrically connected to the single-channel PWM generation circuit 51. The single-channel PWM generation circuit 51 is also electrically connected to the single-supply bootstrap level transfer isolation drive circuit 52, the output voltage adjustable sampling circuit 55, and the overcurrent protection circuit 61, respectively. The BUCK circuit 53 is connected to the input terminal of the LC filter circuit 54. The output voltage adjustable sampling circuit 55, the voltage display circuit 57, and the output current sampling circuit 56 are electrically connected to the output terminal of the LC filter circuit 54, respectively. The current display circuit 58 is electrically connected to the output current sampling circuit 56.

[0044] The aforementioned switching power supply input circuit 1, auxiliary switching power supply circuit 2, power factor compensation boost circuit 3, switching power supply isolation power conversion circuit 4, and voltage and current controllable BUCK circuit 5 are all existing known technologies.

[0045] The load voltage and current display circuit 6 includes a current amplification and comparison control circuit 60, an overcurrent protection circuit 61, and an overcurrent protection status display circuit 62.

[0046] The current amplification and comparator control circuit 60 consists of an integrated operational amplifier chip IC4 (LM358) and its peripheral components. Resistor R9 is an isolation resistor, and electrolytic capacitor C16 and ceramic capacitor C17 are filter capacitors. The output current is sampled and applied to the non-inverting input of integrated operational amplifier 1. Potentiometer RP2 and resistor R19 form a negative feedback network. Adjusting potentiometer RP2 can change the voltage amplification factor. Due to the large current dynamic range, the amplification factor is changed for amplification. A large amplification factor is used for small currents, and a small amplification factor is used for large currents. The comparator uses a fixed voltage method. Resistors R10 and R21 divide the voltage to apply a fixed bias voltage to the inverting input of integrated operational amplifier 2. When the set current is not overcurrent, the output of integrated operational amplifier 2 outputs an overcurrent control signal SD at a low level, and all circuits are in normal working state. When the set current is overcurrent, the output of integrated operational amplifier 2 outputs an overcurrent control signal SD at a high level, and all circuits are in the off state, realizing contactless overcurrent protection. Diode D4 is an isolation diode, resistor R8 is an isolation resistor, and resistor R20 is a pull-down resistor.

[0047] The overcurrent protection circuit 61 consists of a control switch NPN transistor Q4, isolation resistors R18 and R22, and a Zener diode DS2. When the circuit is operating normally without overcurrent, when the overcurrent control signal SD is low, both the control switch NPN transistor Q4 and the Zener diode DS2 are cut off, which does not affect the circuit operation. When the overcurrent control signal SD is high, both the control switch NPN transistor Q4 and the Zener diode DS2 are turned on, shutting down the single-channel PWM signal output, cutting off the power supply, and providing overcurrent protection.

[0048] The overcurrent protection status display circuit 62 consists of NPN transistors Q11 and Q12, resistors R45, R46, R47, and R48, a red LED diode DS5, and a green LED diode DS6. When the overcurrent control signal SD is low, both NPN transistors Q11 and Q12 are cut off, and the green LED diode DS6 is lit; when the overcurrent control signal SD is high, both NPN transistors Q11 and Q12 are turned on, and the red LED diode DS5 is lit.

[0049] The circuit connection of the above-mentioned load voltage and current display circuit 6 is as follows: the current amplification and comparison control circuit 60 is electrically connected to the current sampling circuit 56, the overcurrent protection circuit 61 is electrically connected to the current amplification and comparison control circuit 60, the overcurrent protection circuit 61 is electrically connected to the single-channel PWM generation circuit 51, the overcurrent protection status display circuit 62 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the second low-voltage rectifier and filter circuit 28, and the overcurrent protection status display circuit 62 is electrically connected to the current amplification and comparison control circuit 60.
