Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of voltage converter technology, and in particular to a primary-side feedback converter, and a method and apparatus for optimizing its dynamic response. Background Technology

[0002] Figure 1 The dual-clamp zero-voltage converter shown can achieve buck-boost power conversion. Compared with single-boost or single-buck circuits, it can achieve higher conversion efficiency over a wider voltage range, and its circuit structure is simple. Therefore, it is widely used in power supply fields such as new energy power generation, communications, and military industries. Figure 1 As shown, the converter mainly consists of the primary-side switching transistor S. P1 ~S P4 Power transformer T1 (including magnetizing inductor L) m Equivalent leakage inductance L of the original edge r Clamping capacitor C L Secondary-side synchronous rectifier tube S R1 and output filter capacitor C o Composition. The converter adopts primary-side feedback control, sampling the clamp capacitor voltage V. CL Used to achieve output voltage regulation control, V CL and output voltage reference V ref The difference is amplified by the output voltage regulator (OVR) and then output as a control signal v. err The primary-side drive signal generation unit generates the signal based on the control signal v. err Input voltage V in Midpoint voltage of bridge arm v A and v B When the primary-side switching transistor S is generated P1 ~S P4 drive control signal v GSP1 ~v GSP4 By adjusting S P1 ~S P4 The conduction time and timing relationship are used to achieve closed-loop control; synchronous rectification control is adopted on the secondary side, and the synchronous rectification driver detects the synchronous rectifier S. R1 The drain-source voltage is used to determine zero-voltage turn-on and zero-current turn-off to generate S. R1 drive control signal v GSR1 That is, when the drain-source voltage is lower than the turn-off threshold voltage V th_on At that time, S was opened R1 When the drain-source voltage is higher than the turn-off threshold voltage V th_off When, turn off S R1 .

[0003] Typical operating waveforms of the converter are as follows Figure 2a , 2bAs shown, the converter has mainly three working stages in a switching cycle, including input energy storage stage (t0~t1), power transmission stage (t1~t2) and current clamping stage (t2~t3). In the input energy storage stage (t0~t1), the primary side switch S P1 and S P4 are turned on, the input voltage V in is applied to the primary side of the power transformer T1, and since the leakage inductance L r is much smaller than the magnetizing inductance L m , the magnetizing inductance current i Lm increases linearly with a slope of V in / L m . At t1, S P1 and S P4 are turned off, the input energy storage stage ends, and then the primary side switch S P2 and S P3 and the secondary side synchronous rectifier S R1 are turned on, the converter enters the power transmission stage (t1~t2), the magnetizing inductance L m transfers energy to the load, and the magnetizing inductance current i Lm decreases linearly with a slope of -V CL / L m , since L r is much smaller than L m , there is V CL / n = V o , where n is the ratio of the number of turns of the primary side to the number of turns of the secondary side of the power transformer T1, i.e., the clamping capacitor voltage V CL of the converter is in proportional relationship with the output voltage V o , so the output voltage closed-loop control can be realized by sampling the clamping capacitor voltage V CL , without the need for a signal isolation circuit, which is simple to implement and helps to improve the power density of the converter; meanwhile, the clamping capacitor C L resonates with the leakage inductance L r and absorbs the energy thereof to avoid voltage spikes, since the leakage energy is not transferred to the secondary side, L r is designed to be much smaller than L m , and the resonant frequency of the clamping capacitor C L is much higher than the switching frequency of the converter (the clamping capacitor C L is also required to be relatively small), to realize high-precision output voltage control and high-efficiency power conversion. At t2, the magnetizing inductance current i Lm is zero, S P3 and S R1 are turned off, the power transmission stage ends, and then the primary side switch S P4 is turned on, the converter enters the current clamping stage (t2~t3), the voltage across the primary side of the transformer is zero, and the magnetizing inductance current i Lmremains unchanged, its negative current is supplied by S P3 , S P4 and S R1 The parasitic capacitance and excitation inductance L m of S 2a resonate to produce a Figure 2a t2~t L phase shown in the figure. Figure 2b is the working waveform of the secondary side synchronous rectification.

[0004] According to the above analysis, the clamping capacitor C o has a relatively small capacitance value, while in order to meet the load voltage stability, the output filter capacitor C o is usually very large, so when the load suddenly changes from full load or heavy load to no load, the phenomenon of disconnection between the primary and secondary sides of the converter shown in the figure will occur: the load current step decreases, resulting in an overshoot of the output voltage V CL and the clamping capacitor voltage V o Since the load current suddenly changes to zero and C L is much larger than C L , the decrease in capacitor voltage caused by the discharge of the clamping capacitor C o ( Figure 3 t a ~t b phase) is much faster than that of the output filter capacitor C ref When the clamping capacitor voltage is lower than the reference voltage V Lm , the duration of the input energy storage stage of the converter will be increased and the peak value of the excitation inductance current i L will be increased under the action of the closed-loop control system of the converter, because the primary and secondary sides are disconnected and C CL is small, the excitation inductance energy rapidly charges the clamping capacitor voltage V b ( Figure 3 t CL ~tc phase), and the upper limit value is clamped by the output voltage, and the closed-loop control system of the converter will reduce the duration of the input energy storage stage to reduce the clamping capacitor voltage, and then the clamping capacitor will discharge again and V o will decrease.

[0005] On the one hand, after the primary and secondary sides are disconnected, the output capacitor C o can only discharge slowly, resulting in a long time for the output voltage V L to recover to the closed-loop value, making the dynamic response performance of the converter not optimal. On the other hand, the disconnection of the primary and secondary sides may also cause oscillation of the clamping capacitor voltage, leading to protection and further worsening the dynamic response of the converter. Figure 4a The equivalent circuit of the converter after the primary and secondary sides are disconnected is shown, i.e. the four-switch buck-boost converter in no-load operation, at this time the control object of the closed-loop control system of the converter has changed greatly, and because the clamping capacitor C CLVery small, to meet the fast dynamic response design of high bandwidth closed loop control system parameters very easy to cause the clamping capacitor voltage V CL oscillation and cause protection, the experimental waveform is shown as Figure 4b Therefore, in order to ensure the stable operation of the system, the loop bandwidth of the closed loop system is usually sacrificed, resulting in poorer dynamic response performance of the converter.

[0006] In view of the above problems, the related art adopts the method of increasing the current loop to improve the dynamic response as shown in Figure 5 , which can reduce the voltage overshoot when the full load is cut off, reduce the time of disengagement of the primary and secondary sides and the recovery time of the output voltage by optimizing the dynamic response, but the loop acceleration may cause the clamping capacitor voltage oscillation to be more severe and trigger protection faster. Moreover, the method of increasing the current loop also needs to increase the current sampling circuit, such as the series current transformer of the primary side current sampling transformer, which is large in size, reduces the system power density, and increases the equivalent leakage inductance L r of the primary side of the power transformer T1, thereby reducing the efficiency of the converter and the output voltage control accuracy.

[0007] Another method in the related art can be to connect a suitable dead load in parallel across the output filter capacitor Co, to accelerate the discharge rate of the output filter capacitor after the primary and secondary sides are disengaged, so that the voltage is quickly restored to the closed loop point, reducing the recovery time of the dynamic response, and benefiting from the shortening of the disengagement time, the oscillation of the primary clamping capacitor voltage after disengagement can also be inhibited to a certain extent, but the additional loss caused by the dead load reduces the efficiency of the converter in the full load range.

[0061] In order to make the purpose, features and advantages of the present disclosure more obvious and easy to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described clearly and completely below with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, but not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0062] The dynamic response optimization method and device of the primary feedback converter of the embodiment of the present disclosure mainly include: adjusting the minimum on time T R1 of the synchronous rectifier tube S on_min , the circuit structure of the implementation is shown in Fig. Figure 6 , the drain and source voltage (v D and v S ) of the synchronous rectifier tube S R1 is sent to T on_minThe regulating circuit, after processing, outputs a voltage signal v. D1 and v S1 Then trigger the synchronous rectifier driver to output S R1 drive control signal v GSR1 And achieve the following functions: synchronous rectifier tube S under no-load and light-load conditions R1 The fixed conduction time is T on_min This causes the magnetizing inductor current i to reach its maximum at the end of the energy transfer phase. Lm Negative direction, that is, realizing the transfer of energy from the secondary side to the primary side, the typical working waveform is as follows: Figure 7 As shown, similar to the method of increasing dead load at the output, it can achieve rapid recovery after the output voltage overshoots when switching from full load to no load, effectively suppressing the disconnection of the primary and secondary sides; while at light loads and above, S R1 On time greater than T on_min At the end of the energy transfer phase, the magnetizing inductor current i Lm To zero, typical operating waveform and Figure 2a As shown, the proposed method does not change the operating state of the converter under light loads and does not introduce additional losses.

[0063] The dynamic response optimization method for the primary-side feedback converter disclosed in this embodiment achieves the effect of dynamic dead load, that is, under no-load and light-load conditions, the output filter capacitor C is consumed by transferring energy from the secondary side to the primary side. o The energy on the primary and secondary sides is effectively suppressed to prevent the primary and secondary sides from separating and to optimize the dynamic response; while under light load and above, the equivalent dead load is zero, which will not bring additional losses and reduce the converter efficiency.

[0074] time t3 S P2 After the turn-off and current clamping phase ends, the primary-side switch S... P1 When the circuit is turned on, the converter enters the input energy storage stage. During this process, the voltage across the primary side of the power transformer T1 changes from zero to V. in Due to capacitor C 11 The voltage across the terminals will not change abruptly, v D1 -v S1 Change to [R] 11 / (R 11 +R 12 )]×V o +V in / n, then capacitor C 11 Through resistor R 11 and R 12 Charging, v D1 -v S1 Change [R] 11 / (R 11 +R 12 )]×(V o +V in / n), and always higher than the turn-on threshold voltage V th_on S R1 It won't be activated by mistake.

[0079] Figure 12a , 12b Experimental waveform comparisons are provided. As can be seen from the figures, before adopting the embodiments of this disclosure, the output voltage overshoot of the converter when switching from full load to no load reached approximately 2V, with an excessively long recovery time. Furthermore, it was prone to triggering protection due to the primary and secondary sides separating, causing the system to shut down and unable to provide stable power to the load. After adopting the embodiments of this disclosure, the output voltage overshoot when switching from full load to no load was reduced to approximately 0.8V, and the recovery time was significantly shortened. Simultaneously, the voltage change trend of the clamping capacitor remained consistent with that of the output voltage, effectively suppressing the separation of the primary and secondary sides of the converter. Figure 13 Experimental efficiency comparison curves are provided. The embodiments disclosed herein do not introduce additional losses or reduce converter efficiency under light loads or above.

[0080] The advantages of this disclosed embodiment are: (1) It achieves dynamic dead load effect, significantly optimizes the dynamic response of the converter, effectively suppresses the disconnection of the primary and secondary sides, and does not reduce the efficiency of the converter above light load; (2) The circuit implementation is simple, no need to add current sampling circuit, and does not affect the equivalent leakage inductance of the primary side of the power transformer, which is conducive to improving efficiency and output voltage control accuracy.
