Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of electronic technologies, and in particular, to an output voltage compensation circuit and a compensation method. Background Art

[0002] During the process of the switching power supply outputting current, due to the equivalent resistance existing in the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) traces, the power supply voltage drop will occur during the process of the current transmitting from the power supply output terminal to the load terminal. Therefore, the feedback method is usually adopted to compensate for the voltage drop.

[0003] Currently, there are mainly three switching power supply feedback methods: proximal feedback, distal single-ended feedback, and distal differential feedback. Proximal feedback is used to supply power to units that are not sensitive to the power supply, and distal feedback is used to supply power to units that are sensitive to the power supply (for example, the central processing unit). The function of distal feedback is that the switching power supply compensates for the voltage drop caused by the PCB traces by collecting the voltage with voltage drop at the load terminal as feedback. Among them, single-ended feedback compensates for the voltage drop of the power supply positive trace, and differential feedback compensates for the voltage drops of the power supply positive and ground traces. However, in order to make the power supply more accurate, the distal feedback line needs to be connected out from inside the load chip (chip ball out). For complex multi-power systems (such as smart terminals like mobile phones), it will increase the trace cost and trace complexity. Summary of the Invention

[0023] In the technical solution of this embodiment, the implementation process of the output voltage compensation circuit is as follows: Refer to Figure 1, the control module 10 controls the PWM output module 20 to output a PWM signal to the power conversion module 30, and controls the output of the power conversion module 30 through the PWM signal. Since there is a certain equivalent impedance in the power supply trace, a certain voltage drop will be generated when the voltage output by the power conversion module 30 passes through the power supply trace, resulting in the inability to ensure the voltage requirement at the load end. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, the current detection module 40 detects the current flowing through the power conversion module 30, and outputs the detected current to the voltage compensation adjustment module 50.

Therefore, through the embodiment of the present invention, the problems of high trace complexity and high trace manufacturing cost existing in the existing compensation methods can be solved, and the voltage drop generated by the trace impedance can be compensated without remote feedback and without adding feedback lines, thereby reducing the trace complexity and manufacturing cost.

[0024] The embodiment of the present invention provides an output voltage compensation circuit, which includes: a control module, a PWM output module, a power conversion module, a current detection module, a voltage compensation adjustment module, and a feedback module; wherein, the control module is electrically connected to the PWM output module, the PWM output module is electrically connected to the power conversion module, the PWM output module is used to output a PWM signal to the power conversion module, and the power conversion module is used to convert the signal at the voltage input end and output it from the voltage output end according to the PWM signal output by the PWM output module; the current detection module is respectively electrically connected to the power conversion module and the voltage compensation adjustment module, the voltage compensation adjustment module is respectively electrically connected to the voltage output end of the power conversion module and the feedback module, and the feedback module is respectively electrically connected to the current detection module and the control module; wherein, the current detection module is used to detect the current flowing through the power conversion module, and the voltage compensation adjustment module is used to output a compensation voltage to the feedback module according to the current detected by the current detection module and the voltage output by the power conversion module; wherein, the control module is used to adjust the PWM signal output by the PWM output module according to the compensation voltage output by the voltage compensation adjustment module to adjust the output voltage of the power conversion module. It can be seen from this that through this circuit, the problems of high trace complexity and high trace manufacturing cost existing in the existing compensation methods can be solved, and the voltage drop generated by the trace impedance can be compensated without remote feedback and without adding feedback lines, thereby reducing the trace complexity and manufacturing cost.

The output terminal of the adder 52 is electrically connected to the feedback module 60;

[0031] Among them, the proportional control unit 51 is used to amplify the current detected by the current detection module 40 by a preset proportional amplification factor and then output it to the first input terminal of the adder 52. The output voltage regulation unit 53 is used to output the voltage output from the voltage output terminal Vout of the power conversion module 30 to the second input terminal of the adder 52 after voltage regulation through a resistor. The adder 52 is used to superimpose the voltages input to its first input terminal and second input terminal and then output them to the feedback module 60.

[0032] Among them, the voltage output after superimposing the voltages input to the first input terminal and the second input terminal of the adder 52 is the compensation voltage. The compensation voltage is output to the second input terminal of the feedback module 60 and compared with the reference voltage signal Vref input to the first input terminal of the feedback module 60, and then output to the control module 10. The control module 10 controls the PWM output module 20 to output a PWM signal according to the feedback compensation voltage to regulate the output voltage of the power conversion module 30, so as to compensate for the voltage drop caused by the power supply line impedance.

[0033] Among them, the proportional control unit 51 can be a proportional amplifier. By adjusting the preset proportional amplification factor of the proportional amplifier, the voltage output by the power conversion module 30 can be compensated.

The output voltage of the voltage output terminal Vout of the power conversion module 30 can also be regulated by adjusting the output voltage regulation unit through the digital control module.

[0034] Optionally, continue to refer to Figure 2 , the output voltage regulation unit 53 includes a first resistor R1 and a second resistor R2.

The voltage output by the adder 52 after superimposing the voltages input to its first input terminal and second input terminal is the compensated feedback voltage. The compensated feedback voltage is output to the control module 10 through the feedback module 60. The control module 10 controls the PWM output module 20 to output a PWM signal according to the compensated voltage of the feedback to adjust the output voltage of the power conversion module 30, thereby compensating for the voltage drop caused by the impedance of the power supply trace.

[0036] Optionally, the first resistor R1 is a variable resistor.

[0037] Among them, the resistance value of the first resistor can be configured through a separate digital control module (such as a single-chip microcomputer) to adjust the voltage of the voltage output terminal Vout of the power conversion module 30. In addition, the first resistor R1 can also be a slide rheostat.

[0038] Optionally, continuing to refer to Figure 2 the voltage compensation adjustment module 50 further includes a filtering unit 54, and the filtering unit 54 is electrically connected to the current detection module 40 and the proportional control unit 51 respectively.

[0039] Among them, the filtering unit 54 can be a low-pass filter.

[0040] Optionally, continuing to refer to Figure 2 the feedback module 60 includes an operational amplifier B1 and a comparator B2. The first input terminal of the operational amplifier B1 is connected to the reference voltage signal Vref. The second input terminal of the operational amplifier B1 is electrically connected to the voltage compensation adjustment module 50. The output terminal of the operational amplifier B1 is electrically connected to the first input terminal of the comparator B2. The second input terminal of the comparator B2 is electrically connected to the current detection module 40. The output terminal of the comparator B2 is electrically connected to the control module 10.

[0041] Among them, the operational amplifier B1 can be an error amplifier, which is used to perform error amplification on the compensated voltage output by the adder 52 and the reference voltage signal Vref. Among them, the reference voltage signal Vref is a bandgap reference source. The comparator B2 is used to output the compensated feedback voltage output by the operational amplifier B1 to the feedback terminal R of the control module 10. In addition, the feedback module 60 further includes a ramp compensation module Vramp, and the ramp compensation module Vramp is used to superimpose the current signal output by the current detection module 40 and the ramp signal output by the ramp compensation module Vramp and then output it to the positive electrode of the operational amplifier. Thus, the stability of the current signal can be improved through signal superposition compensation.

[0042] In the technical solution of this embodiment, the working principles of the voltage compensation adjustment module 50 and the feedback module 60 are: Refer toFigure 2 Assume that the average current input at the voltage input terminal Vin of the power conversion module 30 is Iin, the voltage output at the voltage output terminal Vout is Vo, the output average current is Io, the impedance of the PCB trace loop is R0, and the impedance of the power trace loop inside the load chip is R1. Then, the power supply voltage drop to be compensated is Io*(R0 + R1).

[0043] Since the current output by the current detection module 40 is proportional to the average current Iin input at the voltage input terminal Vin, and the proportionality coefficient is set as a, the voltage V1 output by the filtering unit 54 is:

[0044] V1 = a*Iin

[0045] Assume that the efficiency of the power supply is η. Among them, the efficiency η can be obtained through testing. Under the condition that the input and output are determined, η is related to the load and usually takes the maximum value. Then, the output average current Io can be calculated as:

[0046]

[0047] The voltage V2 output by the proportional control unit 51 is:

[0048] V2 = -Io*(R0 + R1)*Vref / Vo

[0049] Among them, Vref is the reference voltage input at the first input terminal of the operational amplifier B1.

[0050] Therefore, according to the above two equations of V1 and V2, the proportional amplification coefficient P of the proportional control unit 51 can be obtained as:

[0051]

[0052] Among them, R1, η, Vref, and a are determined by the chip itself and are fixed parameters of the chip. R0, Vo, and Vin are determined by the specific product and can be adjusted according to the actual usage situation. Among them, in order to ensure the stability of the system, a can take the minimum value under this chip process, the efficiency η of the power supply takes the maximum value under all loads, the impedance of the PCB trace loop is R0, and the impedance of the power trace loop inside the load chip is R1 can be obtained through simulation technology, and Vo can be adjusted by adjusting the output voltage adjustment unit 53.

[0053] Thus, during the compensation adjustment of the output voltage compensation circuit, the output voltage of the output voltage adjustment unit 53 can be adjusted by a separate digital control module (such as a single-chip microcomputer) to adjust the voltage of the voltage output terminal Vout of the power conversion module 30. The impedance R0 of the PCB trace loop and the impedance R1 of the power trace loop inside the load chip are obtained through simulation technology. According to parameters such as the voltage of the voltage output terminal Vout, the impedance R0 of the PCB trace loop, and the impedance R1 of the power trace loop inside the load chip, the preset proportional amplification factor of the proportional control unit 51 can be configured, so that the proportional control unit outputs the voltage value that the power conversion module 30 needs to compensate, and the voltage value to be compensated is fed back to the feedback terminal R of the control module 10 through the adder 52 and the feedback module 60. The control module 10 controls the PWM output module 20 to output a PWM signal according to the feedback signal to adjust the output voltage of the power conversion module 30.

[0054] Optionally, an overcurrent protection module 70 is further included, and the overcurrent protection module 70 is electrically connected to the current detection module 40 and the control module 10 respectively.

[0055] Among them, the overcurrent protection module 70 is electrically connected to the power conversion module 30, and is used to input the detected current of the power conversion module 30 to the overcurrent protection feedback terminal of the control module 10 to detect whether the power conversion module 30 has an overcurrent.

[0056] In addition, referring to Figure 2 , the output voltage compensation circuit further includes an overvoltage protection module OVP, a frequency configuration module PFM, and a signal source S. Among them, the overvoltage protection module OVP is used to protect the circuit when the circuit has an overvoltage, and the frequency configuration module PFM can configure the frequency of the control module 10, and the provided frequency is used when the power supply is lightly loaded.

[0057] Embodiment III

[0058] Figure 3 is a schematic structural diagram of an output voltage compensation circuit provided in Embodiment III of the present invention. On the basis of the above embodiment, referring to Figure 3 , the power conversion module 30 includes a fourth transistor M4, a fifth transistor M5, and a second inductor L2. The control end of the fourth transistor M4 is electrically connected to the first output end of the PWM output module 20. The first end of the fourth transistor M4 is electrically connected to the voltage input terminal Vin. The second end of the fourth transistor M4 is respectively electrically connected to the first end of the fifth transistor M5 and the first end of the second inductor L2. The control end of the fifth transistor M5 is electrically connected to the second output end of the PWM output module 20. The second end of the fifth transistor M5 is grounded. The second end of the second inductor L2 is electrically connected to the voltage output terminal Vout;

[0059] Among them, the first end and the second end of the second inductor L2 are respectively electrically connected to the current detection module 40, and the current detection module 40 is used to detect the current flowing into the second inductor L2.

[0060] Among them, the control module 10 can control the conduction or cut-off of the fourth transistor M4 and the fifth transistor M5 by controlling the PWM output module 20 to output a PWM signal, and further can control the voltage input from the voltage input terminal Vin to be output from the voltage output terminal Vout. Among them, the fourth transistor M4 can be a P-type MOS transistor, and the fifth transistor M5 can be an N-type MOS transistor.

[0061] In the technical solution of this embodiment, the working principles of the voltage compensation adjustment module 50 and the feedback module 60 are as follows: Refer to Figure 2 , assuming that the voltage output from the voltage output terminal Vout of the power conversion module 30 is Vo, the output average current is Io, the resistance of the first inductor L1 is RL, the impedance of the PCB trace loop is R0, and the impedance of the power trace loop inside the load chip is R1, then the power supply voltage drop to be compensated is Io*(R0 + R1).

[0062] Since the current output by the current detection module 40 is proportional to the average current Io at the voltage output terminal, and assuming the proportional coefficient is a, the voltage V1 output by the filtering unit 54 is:

[0063] V1 = a*Io*RL

[0064] The voltage V2 output by the proportional control unit 51 is:

[0065] V2 = -Io*(R0 + R1)*Vref / Vo

[0066] Among them, Vref is the reference voltage input to the first input terminal of the operational amplifier B1.

[0067] Thus, according to the above two expressions of V1 and V2, the proportional amplification coefficient P of the proportional control unit 51 can be obtained as:

[0068]

[0069] Among them, R1, Vref, and a are determined by the chip itself and are fixed parameters of the chip. R0, Vo, and RL are determined by the specific product and can be adjusted according to the actual usage situation. Among them, in order to ensure the stability of the system, a can take the minimum value under this chip process, RL can take the minimum value of the first inductor, the impedance of the PCB trace loop is R0 and the impedance of the power trace loop inside the load chip is R1 can be obtained through simulation technology, and Vo can be adjusted by adjusting the output voltage adjustment unit 53.

[0070] Therefore, during the compensation adjustment of the output voltage compensation circuit, the output voltage of the output voltage adjustment unit 53 can be adjusted by a separate digital control module (such as a single-chip microcomputer) to adjust the voltage of the voltage output terminal Vout of the power conversion module 30. The impedance R0 of the PCB trace loop and the impedance R1 of the power trace loop inside the load chip are obtained through simulation technology. According to parameters such as the voltage of the voltage output terminal Vout, the impedance R0 of the PCB trace loop, and the impedance R1 of the power trace loop inside the load chip, the preset proportional amplification factor of the proportional control unit 51 can be configured, so that the proportional control unit outputs the voltage value that the power conversion module 30 needs to compensate, and the voltage value to be compensated is fed back to the feedback terminal R of the control module 10 through the adder 52 and the feedback module 60. The control module 10 controls the PWM output module 20 to output a PWM signal according to the feedback signal to adjust the output voltage of the power conversion module 30.

The control module controls the PWM output module to output a PWM signal according to the feedback signal of the feedback module to adjust the output voltage of the power conversion module. Thus, by feeding back the compensation voltage output by the voltage compensation adjustment module to the control module, the control module adjusts the PWM signal output by the PWM output module according to the compensation voltage to adjust the voltage output of the power conversion module, thereby compensating for the voltage drop caused by the impedance of the PCB trace, the internal power trace of the load chip, etc. of the power conversion module.
