Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a center-tapped rectifier circuit, in particular to a bipolar self-equalizing center-tapped rectifier circuit. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, the center-tapped rectifier circuit has a much higher rectification efficiency than the half-wave rectifier circuit and is widely used in power equipment. Among them, the bipolar center-tapped rectifier circuit can achieve that when one of the outputs fails, the other can work normally; and when it is operating normally, it can provide three voltage levels. Due to its high flexibility and reliability, the bipolar circuit has inherent advantages in the fields of new energy such as photovoltaics and fuel cells, and in the power supply of data centers and computer rooms. Therefore, the bipolar circuit is widely used in data centers and DC microgrids. However, the bipolar circuit based on the transformer multi-output winding design has the problem of cross-regulation rate, which will cause a large voltage deviation between the positive and negative poles when the load is unbalanced, affecting the power quality of the load equipment, and even causing the system to fail to work properly in severe cases.

[0003] At present, in order to realize the two-stage voltage balancing of the bipolar circuit, the improvement measures are mainly divided into two aspects: control and circuit topology. For example, the patent with application publication number CN106026667A discloses a method for improving the cross-regulation rate of a multi-channel output switching power supply. The converter described in the patent places the RCD absorption circuit on the secondary output winding side to directly absorb and suppress the leakage inductance voltage spike of the secondary output winding. At the same time, combined with the effect of the primary side clamping circuit, the leakage inductance voltage spike and leakage inductance energy coupling in the transformer can be further reduced, the stability of the auxiliary output voltage can be improved, and the cross-regulation rate of the multi-channel output switching power supply can be improved. However, the additional RCD circuit on the secondary side will consume part of the energy in the circuit, making the transmission efficiency of the converter low.

[0004] The patent document with the authorization announcement number CN209030069U discloses a multi-channel output power supply. The power module adds a timing control circuit composed of a control module, a drive module, an isolation module and a detection module to the auxiliary output circuit, which can independently control the output voltage of each circuit, greatly reducing the cost, while ensuring the isolation between the outputs, and improving the power supply reliability of the power module. However, setting a timing control circuit for each output circuit will increase the control difficulty, especially for a multi-channel output power module. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the problem that the positive and negative output voltages of a bipolar center-tapped rectifier circuit are easily affected by load disturbances and produce deviations, the present invention proposes a bipolar self-equalizing center-tapped rectifier circuit, which can effectively reduce the problem of large deviations in the output voltage of the bipolar center-tapped rectifier circuit when the load is unbalanced, and automatic voltage equalization of the bipolar output can be achieved only through voltage equalization capacitors, without the need for complex sampling and control algorithms, and is suitable for occasions requiring bipolar voltage power supply.

[0053] The current is carried by the primary winding L of the three-winding transformer T p When the other end flows into the rectifier diode D P2 and rectifier diode D N2 Conductivity.

[0054] During the entire switching cycle, the transformer secondary coil L is known from the volt-second balance principle. s1 and L s2 The average voltage is 0, and the VB1 →L s1 →C VB2 →L s2 →C VB1 The KVL principle of the loop can obtain the voltage-equalizing capacitor C VB1 The voltage u CVB1 Equal to the voltage balancing capacitor C VB2 The voltage u CVB2 .

[0059] Depend on Figure 4 It can be seen that when the present invention is used, the output voltages under unbalanced loads on the two paths are equal and have no difference, which effectively reduces the output voltage difference of the bipolar center-tapped rectifier circuit. In the case of unbalanced loads, the output voltage is self-equalized by relying solely on the circuit itself, and the voltage deviation is only 0.2V, which solves the problem that the output cannot be self-equalized.
