Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power supply equipment, and in particular to a switching linear composite power supply and a control method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS), also known as switching power supply or switching converter, is a high-frequency power conversion device and a type of power supply. Its function is to convert a voltage level into the voltage or current required by the user through different forms of architecture. Linear power supply first reduces the voltage amplitude of AC power through a transformer, then rectifies it through a rectifier circuit to obtain pulsed DC power, and then filters it to obtain a DC voltage with a small ripple voltage.

[0003] For DC voltage regulators, switching power supplies have the advantages of low power consumption and high efficiency, but they are greatly affected by electromagnetic interference, and the ripple coefficient is large, resulting in poor output accuracy and slow response; linear power supplies are less affected by electromagnetic interference and have stable output, but they have the disadvantages of low working efficiency and poor thermal stability.

[0021] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a control method for a switching linear composite power supply, comprising the following steps:

[0022] Step S10, MCU receives power supply parameters sent by the host computer through the communication interface group; the power supply parameters include loading voltage Vset, loading current Iset, MOS tube Q2 voltage drop, maximum output voltage Vmax of the battery to be tested, MOS tube power lower limit, MOS tube power upper limit, temperature threshold, voltage threshold and current threshold;

[0042] 2. By setting a digital-to-analog converter, the loading voltage Vset and loading current Iset received by the MCU are transmitted to the linear adjustment module, and then the output of the linear adjustment module is accurately controlled, which greatly improves the output accuracy of the power supply.

[0043] 3.

[0068] A preferred embodiment of a control method of a switching linear composite power supply of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0069] Step S10, MCU receives power supply parameters sent by the host computer through the communication interface group; the power supply parameters include loading voltage Vset, loading current Iset, MOS tube Q2 voltage drop, maximum output voltage Vmax of the battery to be tested, MOS tube power lower limit, MOS tube power upper limit, temperature threshold, voltage threshold and current threshold;

[0070] Step S20, the filter circuit filters the DC voltage regulator and then inputs the filtered DC voltage regulator into the switch adjustment circuit;

[0071] Step S30, the MCU calculates the bus voltage Vbusset based on the voltage drop of the MOS tube Q2 and the maximum output voltage Vmax of the battery to be tested, and outputs a corresponding pulse width modulation signal (PWM) to the MOS tube Q1 based on the bus voltage Vbusset, that is, controls the on-time of the MOS tube Q1, so that the MOS tube Q1 outputs the modulated power to the linear adjustment module;

[0074] Step S60, the MCU calculates the power loss Pmos of the MOS tube Q2 based on the input current Isensor, the linear voltage difference Vmos, the output voltage Vout and the bus voltage Vbus, and adjusts the pulse width modulation signal of the MOS tube Q1 based on the power loss Pmos, the MOS tube power lower limit and the MOS tube power upper limit; the bus voltage Vbusset is the set value of the bus voltage, the bus voltage Vbus is the actual measured value of the bus voltage, and the initial state of Vbusset is full-scale output, in order to shorten the time of the voltage and current rising edge;

Step S20, the filter circuit filters the DC voltage regulator and then inputs the filtered DC voltage regulator into the switch adjustment circuit; Step S30, the MCU calculates the bus voltage Vbusset based on the voltage drop of the MOS tube Q2 and the maximum output voltage Vmax of the battery to be tested, and outputs a corresponding pulse width modulation signal to the MOS tube Q1 based on the bus voltage Vbusset, so that the MOS tube Q1 outputs the modulated power to the linear adjustment module; Step S40: The MCU sends the loading voltage Vset and the loading current Iset to the linear modulation module through the digital-to-analog converter, and the linear modulation module linearly adjusts the input power supply based on the received loading voltage Vset and the loading current Iset;
