Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of power management, and in particular relates to a sampling, holding and knee point detection circuit with adaptive pre-charging capability. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the development of electronic devices, traditional linear regulated power supplies have gradually failed to meet the demand for power management chips in electronic products, and switching power supplies have gradually become the mainstream of the market. Among them, flyback converters have been widely used in low-power devices due to their small size, low power consumption, and good input-output isolation characteristics. Flyback converters can be divided into primary-side feedback type and secondary-side feedback type according to the feedback regulation method. The output sampling of the secondary-side feedback flyback converter is relatively accurate, but due to components such as optocouplers, it has the disadvantage of poor anti-interference ability. Therefore, the primary-side feedback flyback converter with a simpler structure has become the current hot spot.

[0003] In the primary side feedback mode, the output voltage information is obtained through the primary side of the flyback converter. Since the sampling accuracy determines the accuracy of the output voltage, one of the key points in the design of the primary side feedback flyback converter is the design of the sampling and holding and knee detection circuits. When the secondary side inductor current is zero, that is, at the knee point, the voltage drop caused by the parasitic impedance of the secondary side is not equal to V SW Therefore, V SW Can describe the output voltage information more accurately. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this is a schematic diagram of a traditional sampling and holding and knee point detection circuit. This scheme uses the characteristic that the voltage waveform will drop sharply when the feedback voltage reaches the knee point, and compares the buffer delay with the original signal to obtain the knee point. However, under the traditional scheme, when the secondary side conduction time is small, the sampling circuit cannot establish a steady-state operating point, resulting in the sampled voltage being less than the actual knee point voltage, thereby affecting the accuracy of the output voltage.

[0032] The technical solution of the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0033] The schematic diagram of the sampling and holding and knee point detection using the optimization scheme of the present invention is as follows: Figure 1 As shown. During the secondary side conduction period, the enable signal V hold With V LEB The process of controlling the knee point detection is to first enable the signal V when the secondary side is just turned on. hold Control buffer A1 to open, enable signal V LEB Control comparator shutdown, V RREF The signal passes through the buffer to get V buf signal; when the ringing of the feedback voltage disappears and enters the platform area, the enable signal V LEB The control comparator is turned on to complete the leading edge blanking. When the knee point is reached, the comparator output flips, the control sampling switch is turned on, and the capacitor C delay The charge on the MOSFET is shared with Chold, and the control buffer is turned off to maintain the knee voltage. After a narrow pulse time, the sampling switch is turned off, the enable signal controls the buffer to work, and the control comparator is turned off. This is how the knee voltage is sampled.

[0034] In this scheme, C delay The capacitor is connected to the VDD power rail through the buffer source and resistor R delay For charging, if the secondary side conduction time is very short and C delay If the capacitance is large, V may be insufficient due to insufficient charging time. delay Voltage below V RREF Voltage, appears as Figure 2 The V delay The sampling and holding circuit with adaptive pre-charging capability and the knee point detection circuit proposed by the present invention are as follows: Figure 2The solution mainly includes the sampling and holding and knee detection part and the adaptive pre-charge part. The sampling and holding and knee detection part mainly includes: buffer A1, comparator A2, first-order low-pass filter resistor R delay and capacitor C delay , holding capacitor C hold , sampling switch MN1, virtual switch MN2 and reset switch MN3; the adaptive pre-charging part includes: comparator A3, pre-charging switch MP1, and current source.

[0035] The control timing of the sampling and holding and knee point detection scheme with adaptive pre-charging scheme proposed by the present invention is as follows: Figure 3 When the secondary side is turned on, the MN3 tube is turned off, and the feedback reference voltage V RREF Rapidly rising, V buffer and V delay Will follow V RREF The voltage starts to rise. 0 -t 1 When the secondary side is just turned on, the parasitic capacitance of the power tube and the primary inductance will form a resonance. In order to avoid the false triggering of comparator A2 during this period, V LEB If it is not enabled, A2 will not work. Figure 3 V appears in delay ', use A3 to control MP1 to make the pre-charge current I charge C delay Charging, when V delay Voltage distance V RREF When the precharge output of comparator A3 is larger, it turns low; when V delay Charged to near V REFF When V is on, comparator A3 flips, precharge turns high, MP1 turns off, and the precharge current is cut off. The introduction of comparator A3 can make the on-time of the precharge current change with V REFF The voltage automatic regulation can be used not only in the application of fixed leading edge blanking time, but also in the application of variable leading edge blanking time. 1 -t 2 , V RREF Enter the platform area, V LEB The signal controls comparator A2 to turn on, and A1 continues to work to update C delay Voltage value. At t 2 At this moment, the secondary inductor current drops to 0, the knee point is reached, V RREF Rapidly falling, due to the pull-down conversion rate and buffer delay, V buffer Unable to follow in time, V buffer With V RREFThere is a voltage difference between them, comparator A2 flips, and the COMP_knee signal flips from low potential to high potential, V SES Flip to high potential, enable signal V hold Flipping to high, buffer A1 turns off, V buffer Keep the knee voltage, the sampling switch is open, C delay and C hold Charge sharing begins. After a narrow pulse reaches t 3 Moment, V SES Turn low, the sampling switch MN1 is disconnected, the virtual switch MN2 is turned on, and the clock feedthrough is compensated. hold Turns low, buffer A1 starts to work normally. 4 At this moment, when the primary side is conducting, the MN3 tube is turned on, and C delay The voltage on resets.

[0036] The sample-hold and knee-point detection circuit with adaptive precharge capability is shown in the figure. Figure 4 As shown. The buffer and comparator of this circuit reuse a folded common source and common gate structure, eliminating additional circuits and reducing the power consumption and cost of the circuit. MP2, MP3, MP4, MP5, MP6, and MP7 form a current mirror to provide bias current for the circuit. MP8 and MP9 are input pair tubes, R1 and R2 are load resistors, R3 is a current limiting resistor, MN9 is a GGNMOS tube for electrostatic discharge, MN7, MN8, MP8, and MP9 together form a folded common source and common gate structure; MP6, MN6, enable tube MN11, and the folded common source and common gate structure together form a comparator; MN10 and MN4 form a current mirror, MN5 is used as a source follower tube, and together with the enable tube MN12 and the folded common source and common gate structure, it forms a buffer; R delay and C delay A first-order low-pass filter is formed, keeping the capacitor C hold , sampling switch MN1, virtual switch MN2, and reset switch MN3 constitute a sample-and-hold circuit. In the circuit of this structure, the input common-mode range is guaranteed while the structure has a large gain. The large gain of the buffer can ensure the output accuracy of the buffer, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the sampled voltage. Knee point detection requires V RREF When falling quickly, V buffer Won't follow V RREF When the knee point is reached, C delay and C hold To share the charge, according to the law of charge conservation, when C delay The bigger the C hold The smaller the time, the sam The error with the knee point voltage is small, so the capacitance ratio of the two capacitors needs to be ten times or more.

[0037] I charge The gate of MP1 is connected to the signal enable signal precharge, which is used to control MP1 to open during the leading edge blanking period, so that C delay Precharge is performed. When V delay Close to V RREF When the precharge signal flips, charging ends, and the offset comparator A3 ensures that V delay If the battery has not reached the platform voltage within the LEB time, the charging is terminated.

[0038] The following is a detailed description of the adaptive pre-charge circuit that can be used to optimize the sample-hold and knee detection circuits. Figure 2 In the circuit, V RREF When in the platform area, C delay The charging current can be expressed as

[0039]

[0040] When the secondary side is just turned on, V buf With V RREF rises rapidly, while V delay The initial potential is zero and the charging current is large. buf With V delay The voltage difference becomes smaller, and the charging current is also smaller. delay The design is also limited by stability and delay compensation, so it cannot be reduced by reducing R delay To increase the charging current. Therefore, when the secondary side conduction time is short, the V delay The sampled voltage is lower than the actual knee voltage. Figure 4 An adaptive pre-charging circuit is added to the circuit.

[0041] Assuming that the charging time from the start of the secondary side conduction is t, when V delay can be charged to V within the leading edge blanking time RREF k times, then C delay The charge stored in

[0042] Q C =kC delay V RREF (t)

[0043] During the charging process, the pre-charge current is given to C delay The charge provided is

[0044] Q C_pre =i charge t

[0045] Therefore, the precharge current for C delay The charging speed does not vary with V buf V delay Get closer to V RREF .
