[0041] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 1is a schematic block diagram of a secondary side synchronous rectification controller of a switching power supply of the application, wherein the switching power supply can be any one of a flyback converter topology circuit, a forward converter topology circuit, an LLC converter topology circuit, a half-bridge converter topology circuit, a full-bridge converter topology circuit, a push-pull converter topology circuit, and the like, refer to Figure 1 The synchronous rectification controller comprises a demagnetization detection circuit, a standby judgment circuit, an AND gate, and a driving circuit.

[0047] Figure 2 ​​The first synchronous rectification controller and standby mode control principle diagram proposed in the application are a further detailed description of the synchronous rectification controller. Figure 1 The synchronous rectification controller. Figure 2 The detailed demagnetization detection circuit principle and standby judgment circuit principle are given. Specifically, the demagnetization detection circuit includes a first comparator, an inverter INV, a resistor, and a reference voltage V DET-ref ; wherein the positive input end of the first comparator is connected to one end of the first resistor R1, the other end of the first resistor R1 is connected to VDET, the negative input end of the first comparator is connected to the reference voltage V DET-ref , the two ends of the second resistor R2 are respectively connected to the positive input end and the output end of the first comparator, and the output end of the first comparator outputs the DEMAG signal through the inverter INV.

[0048] The standby judgment circuit includes a current source, a MOS tube, a clock signal CLK, a comparator, a capacitor, an OR gate circuit, a buffer circuit BUF, a D flip-flop, and an inverter; wherein the drain of the first MOS tube is connected to the current source I charge , the gate of the first MOS tube is connected to the DEMAG signal, the source of the first MOS tube is connected to the drain of the second MOS tube and one end of the capacitor C1, the gate of the second MOS tube is connected to the clock signal CLK, the source of the second MOS tube and the other end of the capacitor C1 are both grounded; the positive input ends of the second comparator and the third comparator are both connected to the source of the first MOS tube, the negative input end of the second comparator is connected to the voltage V TH , the enable end of the second comparator is connected to the negative input end of the third comparator is connected to the voltage V TL , and the enable end of the third comparator is connected to V G-EN ;

[0049] The two input ends of the OR gate circuit are respectively connected to the output ends of the second comparator and the third comparator, the output end of the OR gate circuit is connected to the input end of the buffer circuit BUF, the output end of the buffer circuit BUF is connected to the signal input end of the D flip-flop, the clock port of the D flip-flop is connected to the clock signal CLK, and the output end of the D flip-flop outputs V G-EN , the V G-EN signal is output as signal through the inverter.

[0050] As shown in Figure 2 , the demagnetization detection circuit includes R1, R2, comparator 1, and reference voltage V DET_ref . When the sampled VDET voltage rapidly decreases and is lower than (for example, about -85mV), the comparator 1 outputs a low level, and the DEMAG high level is output after the inverter INV, indicating that the demagnetization start is detected. When the sampled VDET voltage gradually rises and is higher than When the voltage is set to about -5mV, the comparator 1 outputs a high level, and after passing through the inverter INV, it outputs a DEMAG low level, indicating that the demagnetization is detected to be completed.

[0051] Figure 2 The principle of the standby judgment circuit is also given. During the demagnetization process, that is, when DEMAG is high, the DEMAG signal drives MOS Q1 to turn on, and the current source I charge Charge capacitor C1, V C1 The rising level is: where t ON is the time duration of DEMAG being high. When DEMAG is low, that is, not in the demagnetization time, MOS Q1 is turned off, and V C1 Each VDET pulse will repeat the above process to achieve V C1 The voltage rises and accumulates during each DEMAG high period. CLK V inside C1 Voltage and set threshold V TL / V TH The relationship between the size of T can be used to determine the heavy load or light load state of the switching power supply in the current cycle, and then control the synchronous rectifier to enter the normal working mode or standby mode. CLK and V TL / V TH Both can be set, which makes it convenient to set different standby mode trigger thresholds in different applications.

[0052] There are four situations in the standby judgment circuit: 1. Entering the standby mode from the normal working mode, that is, V G_EN From the high level of the current cycle to the low level of the next CLK cycle; 2. Maintain normal working mode, that is, maintain the current V G_EN 3. Restore from standby mode to normal working mode, that is, V G_EN From the current cycle low level to the next CLK cycle high level; 4. Keep in standby mode, that is, keep the current V G_EN is low level.

[0053] The first and second cases mentioned above both occur when the current V G_EN When it is high, the synchronous rectifier controller is in normal working mode, and the comparator 3 enables the signal V G_EN High, output valid level, comparator 2 enable signal is low, the output is always low. When the next rising edge of CLK comes, if V C1 >V TL, the comparator 3 output is high, after the or gate and the BUF delay, the VD signal is high, the D flip-flop output V G_EN is high, that is, the second case of the standby judgment circuit: the synchronous rectification controller keeps the normal working mode. When the next CLK rising edge comes, if V C1 ≤ V TL , the comparator 3 output is low, the comparator 2 output is low because the enable signal V is low, the output is always low, after the or gate and the BUF delay, the VD signal is low, the D flip-flop output V G_EN is high to low, that is, the first case of the standby judgment circuit: the synchronous rectification controller enters the standby mode from the normal working mode.

[0054] The third case and the fourth case above both occur when the current V G_EN is low, that is, the current synchronous rectification controller is in the standby mode, the comparator 3 enable signal V G_EN is low, the output is always low, the comparator 2 enable signal V is high, the output is effective. When the next CLK rising edge comes, if V C1 >V TH , the comparator 2 output is high, after the or gate and the BUF delay, the VD signal is high, the D flip-flop output V G_EN is low to high, that is, the third case of the standby judgment circuit: the synchronous rectification controller recovers to the normal working mode from the standby mode. If the next CLK rising edge comes, V C1 ≤ V TH , the comparator 2 output is low, the comparator 3 output is always low because the enable signal V G_EN is low, after the or gate and the BUF delay, the VD signal is low, the D flip-flop output V G_EN is low, that is, the fourth case of the standby judgment circuit: the synchronous rectification controller keeps the standby mode.

[0055] The standby judgment circuit output signal V G_EN and the demagnetization signal DEMAG are input to the AND gate together, the AND gate output V gate is given to the drive circuit. The drive circuit strengthens the driving ability, and outputs a signal VG synchronized with V gate to the synchronous rectification MOS Q2 gate, to control the synchronous rectification MOS switch. The above is the basic principle of the synchronous rectification controller and the standby mode control thereof.

[0056] Figure 3is the key waveform diagram of the synchronous rectifier controller in this application from heavy load to light load or no load, switching from normal mode to standby mode. Time starts at t = 0, CLK sends a pulse signal, which is high when MOS Q2 is opened, discharging C1 capacitor, V C1 is quickly discharged to zero, as shown in the V Figure 3 waveform in the figure. When the CLK pulse is over, every time VDET quickly drops and meets "VDET < V C1 ", the demagnetization signal DEMAG becomes high, and V DET_ref_L is high. At the same time, the demagnetization signal DEMAG high level drives MOS Q1 to open, charging C1 capacitor, V G_EN rises to: , where t gate is the length of time when DEMAG is high. When DEMAG is low, i.e. not in demagnetization time, MOS Q1 is closed, and V C1 remains unchanged. Every VDET pulse will repeat the above process, so that V ON is realized. C1 The voltage rises during each DEMAG high period. Until the next CLK rising edge comes, V C1 accumulates rise, which does not exceed V TL , and D flip-flop output V G_EN changes from high to low, and remains low before the next CLK arrives, realizing the synchronous rectifier controller switching from normal mode to standby mode.

[0057] Figure 4 is the key waveform diagram of the synchronous rectifier controller in this application from light load or no load to heavy load, switching from standby mode to normal mode. Time starts at t = 0, CLK sends a pulse signal, which is high when MOS Q2 is opened, discharging C1 capacitor, V C1 is quickly discharged to zero, as shown in the V C1 waveform in the figure. When the CLK pulse is over, every time VDET quickly drops and meets "VDET < V DET_ref_L ", the demagnetization signal DEMAG becomes high, driving MOS Q1 to open, charging C1 capacitor, V C1 rises to: , where t ON is the length of time when DEMAG is high. When DEMAG is low, i.e. not in demagnetization time, MOS Q1 is closed, and V C1 remains unchanged. Every VDET pulse will repeat the above process, so that V C1The voltage rises up during each DEMAG high level. Until the next CLK rising edge comes, V C1 The rising edge is accumulated and V C1 >V TH The D flip-flop output V G_EN is changed from low to high and keeps high until the next CLK comes, realizing the synchronous rectification controller switching from standby mode to normal working mode.

[0070] Referring to Figure 7 , the difference is that the standby judgment circuit in Figure 2 uses DEMAG control I charge to charge the capacitor C1, so as to realize that V C1 is proportional to t on ; Figure 7The positive phase integration circuit is composed of an operational amplifier, R5, C2, Q2, R6, C1 and Q1, and R5*C2=R6*C1, so that V C1 is proportional to t on , where V DEMAG is the voltage value of DEMAG high level. Figure 7 The negative phase integration circuit is composed of an operational amplifier, R5, C1 and Q1, so that V C1 is inversely proportional to t on , where V DEMAG is the voltage value of DEMAG high level. Since the output VC1 of the negative phase integration circuit is negative, the input conditions of the comparator 2 and the comparator 3 need to be adjusted accordingly: the input reference value is changed from V TL / V TH to (-V TL ) / (-V TH ), and the input reference value is set to the positive input of the comparator, and V C1 is the negative input. The standby judgment circuit other parts are consistent with Figure 2 , Figure 6 and realize the same function.

[0071] In summary, the synchronous rectification controller and the standby mode control circuit thereof utilize the demagnetization signal DEMAG generated by detecting the voltage drop across the synchronous rectification MOS, and output V CLK according to the length of the effective time t on of DEMAG in the fixed time T G_EN , to determine whether to switch to the normal working mode or the standby mode. When the synchronous rectification controller of the application switches from heavy load to light load or no load, it switches from the normal working mode to the standby mode, which can reduce the power consumption of the synchronous rectification controller and improve the system efficiency.

Any modification, replacement, improvement, etc. within the design principles and spirit of the application is within the protection scope of the application.
