Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of power electronics technology, and particularly relates to a hybrid structure LLC power supply. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, data centers have developed rapidly, and the related power consumption has also increased significantly. To improve the power transmission and distribution efficiency and reduce the transmission line loss, the 48V bus system has become a new standard. The main load in the data center is the processor, and its supply voltage is usually about 1V. How to achieve high-efficiency, high step-down ratio, and high power density isolated DC-DC conversion is a difficult problem in the data center power supply.

[0003] Literature A "48V-to-1V Buck-Assisted Active-Clamp Forward Converter with Reduced Voltage Stress for Datacenter Applications" (2020 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition (ECCE), 2020) proposed an active-clamped forward converter, which realizes a high step-down ratio and high voltage isolation through a first-stage Buck part and a first-stage single-switch forward part. However, the maximum voltage stress borne by the switch tube in the topology is still relatively high, which is the input voltage, and the primary-side voltage of the transformer is also relatively high. To achieve a high step-down ratio, it is necessary to increase the number of winding turns, which increases the volume of the transformer.

[0004] Literature "48V to 1V voltage regulator module with magnetic integration" (2018 1st Workshop on Wide Bandgap Power Devices and Applications in Asia (WiPDA Asia), 2018) uses a full-bridge LLC converter. By designing the transformer, the volume of the magnetic component part in the topology is reduced. However, the voltage stress of all power switch tubes on the primary side of the transformer is still relatively high, and the voltage stress borne by the primary winding is not reduced either, and a large number of winding turns are still required.

[0005] To reduce the voltage stress of the switching device and the volume of the transformer, Reference 18.6 A 92.8%-Peak-Efficiency 60A 48V-to-1V 3-Level Half-Bridge DC-DC Converter with BalancedVoltage on a Flying Capacitor (2020 IEEE International Solid-State CircuitsConference-(ISSCC), 2020) uses a three-level half-bridge converter, making the voltage borne by the primary winding of the transformer only one-fourth of the input voltage. At the same time, the maximum voltage stress borne by the switching tube also drops to one-half of the input voltage. However, its scalability is poor, and the voltage stress borne by the transformer and the switching tube is still relatively high. The impedance of the primary power current path is large, and the system efficiency is low. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of the above, to solve the problems in the prior art that the voltage stress borne by the switching tube and the primary winding of the transformer is high, the efficiency and power density are low, and it is not convenient for expansion, the present invention provides a hybrid-structure LLC power supply, which consists of a first-stage expandable switched-capacitor part and a first-stage expandable LLC conversion part. The switched-capacitor part is transformed from the traditional Dickson switched-capacitor topology, and multiple capacitors are used to reduce the voltage stress of the switching tube and the amplitude of the input voltage of the LLC stage. This power supply can flexibly adjust the number of stages of the switched-capacitor part and the number of rectification modules of the LLC part according to the input voltage and power level, with good scalability, and is suitable for high-voltage conversion ratio power supply applications with isolation requirements in low-voltage medium and small power scenarios.

[0044] The advantages of the present invention will be illustrated through theoretical analysis in combination with specific embodiments. Taking Figure 7 the embodiment in H1 ~ H3 as an example, during steady-state operation, the duty cycles of the driving signals of Q L1 ~Q L2 are the same, and the duty cycles of the driving signals of Q 1 and Q 2 are the same. The voltage on C H1 ~ H3 ~ L2 is 2 / 3 of the input voltage, and the voltage on C H2 ~ L1 is 1 / 3 of the input voltage. There are two modes in the first power conversion part that output power. In the first mode, Q H1 , Q H3 , Q L2 conduct. In the second mode, Q H2 and Q L1 conduct, thereby generating a pair of positive and negative alternating rectangular wave signals with an amplitude of only 1 / 3 of the input voltage at the input end of the second power conversion part. Moreover, the withstand voltage values of Q L1 and Q L2 are also only 1 / 3 of the input voltage. In the traditional solution, the first power conversion part often adopts a full-bridge or half-bridge topology, and the withstand voltage of all switching tubes is equal to the input voltage. Therefore, the present invention allows the use of switching tubes with lower withstand voltage. Moreover, since the amplitude of the input voltage of the second power conversion part is reduced, the volume of the transformer in the second power conversion part can be reduced, and the power density of the system can be increased. Moreover, through the resonant inductor and resonant capacitor in the second power part, the primary switching tubes can work in the zero-current turn-on state, thereby reducing the dead-time loss and switching loss and improving the system efficiency.

[0045] From Figure 7 the specific embodiment shown, it can be seen that each rectification module in the second power part is exactly the same. Therefore, only the parameters of a single module need to be designed to complete the design of the entire power part. Moreover, for different input voltage levels, only the number of modules needs to be adjusted, and there is no need to redesign the module parameters.
