[0052] To make the above objects, features and advantages of the present application more clear and easily understood, a preferred embodiment is described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0053] Figure 1 is an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present application. Referring to Figure 1 , the electronic device 1 includes a resonant circuit 10, a power detection circuit 11, a driver 12, and a current sensor 13. The power detection circuit 11 is configured to detect a current total input power of the resonant circuit 10. In an embodiment, the electronic device 1 can be any device that needs to convert energy using a resonant circuit, such as a wireless signal transceiver, an electromagnetic oven, etc. In the following, the technical features of the present disclosure will be described with the electronic device 1 as an example of an electromagnetic oven.
[0054] Referring to Figure 1 , the resonant circuit 10 is coupled to a voltage source 100 to receive an input voltage V in . The resonant circuit 10 includes an upper arm switching element Q H , a lower arm switching element Q L , a resonant capacitor Cr, an inductor L eq , and a resistor R eq . The upper arm switching element Q H and the lower arm switching element Q L are connected in series between the positive terminal and the negative terminal of the voltage source 100. The driver 12 generates switching signals G OH and G OL to control the on / off states of the upper arm switching element Q H and the lower arm switching element Q L , respectively. In this embodiment, the switching signals G OH and G OL each have a duty cycle, so that the controlled upper arm switching element Q H and the lower arm switching element Q L operate according to their respective duty cycles. By controlling the switching signals G OH and G OL , the upper arm switching element Q H and the lower arm switching element Q L are switched between the on state and the off state, respectively, and the on time of the upper arm switching element Q H and the lower arm switching element Q L do not overlap.
[0055] Referring to Figure 1 , in the case where the electronic device 1 is an electromagnetic oven, the inductor L eq and the resistor R eqThese are the equivalent inductance and equivalent resistance of the cookware placed on the electronic device (induction cooker) 1. The series-connected resonant capacitor Cr and inductor L... eq and resistor R eq This forms the resonant slot of the resonant circuit 10, which is coupled to the upper arm switching element Q. H Switching element Q with lower arm L The common node N10 between them. The upper arm switching element Q is controlled. H Switching element Q with lower arm L Each switches between the on and off states, and the voltage v of a resonant tank... r Generated from the lower arm switching element Q L Between the drain and source, and a resonant tank current i r Flow through capacitor Cr. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the resonant tank current i r The flow originates from the common node N10 and flows to the resonant slot. The circuit architecture of the resonant circuit 10 reveals that it is a half-bridge series resonant circuit.
[0056] like Figure 1 As shown, the current sensor 13 is coupled to the resonant tank of the resonant circuit 10 at a common node N10 to sense the resonant tank current i. r The current sensor 13 detects the resonant tank current i. r Generate current signal Si r .exist Figure 1 In one embodiment, the current sensor 13 is disposed outside the power detection circuit 11. In other embodiments, the current sensor 13 may be included within the power detection circuit 11.
[0057] The power detection circuit 11 includes a detection circuit 110 and an estimation circuit 111. The detection circuit 110 receives the current signal Si. r And according to the current signal Si r Obtain the fundamental frequency power P of the resonant slot r1 To generate the fundamental frequency power value VP r1 The estimation circuit 111 then receives the baseband power value VP. r1 And according to the fundamental frequency power value VP r1 Estimate the current total input power P of the resonant tank. r12 To generate an estimated power value VP r12 The detailed operation of the detection circuit 110 and the estimation circuit 111 will be described below.
[0058] See Figure 1 The detection circuit 110 includes a bandpass filter 110A, a peak detector 110B, and a measurement circuit 110C. The bandpass filter 110A receives the current signal Si from the current sensor 13. rAnd for the current signal Si r Perform bandpass wave operation to obtain the fundamental frequency current i of the resonant slot. r1 (i.e., the resonant tank current i) r (The fundamental frequency component). The bandpass filter 110A generates a signal representing the fundamental frequency. r1 The fundamental frequency current signal Si r1 It is then output to the peak detection circuit 110B.
[0059] Peak detection circuit 110B is coupled to bandpass filter 110A and receives the fundamental frequency current signal Si from bandpass filter 110A. r1 Due to the fundamental frequency current signal Si r1 This represents the fundamental frequency current i. r1 Therefore, the peak detection circuit 110B can detect the fundamental frequency current signal Si. r1 To detect the fundamental frequency current i r1 peak value VP i The peak detection circuit 110B will detect the peak value VP. i Transmitted to measurement circuit 110C.
[0060] Measurement circuit 110C is coupled to peak detector 110B and receives peak value VP. i The measurement circuit 110C measures the peak value VP. i And the fundamental frequency power of the resonant slot is measured by the fundamental frequency resistor R1. To generate the corresponding fundamental frequency power value VP r1 Among them, in calculating the fundamental frequency power P r1 When, the parameter i in the above formula r1 (Fundamental frequency current) is determined by its peak value VP i Substitute it in. Calculate the fundamental frequency power P. r1 Then, the measurement circuit 110C generates the corresponding fundamental frequency power value VP. r1 The value of the baseband resistor R1 is then transmitted to the estimation circuit 111. In this embodiment, the value of the baseband resistor R1 is predetermined and can be stored in advance in the measurement circuit 110C. In other embodiments, the value of the baseband resistor R1 is predetermined and can be stored in advance in a memory (not shown) of the electronic device 1. When the power detection circuit 11 operates, the value of the baseband resistor R1 is read from the memory.
[0061] The estimation circuit 111 is coupled to the measurement circuit 110C and receives the fundamental frequency power value VP. r1 The estimation circuit 111 uses the baseband power value VP. r1 Obtain the fundamental frequency power P of the resonant slot r1 The estimation circuit 111 also receives an indication signal S11, which indicates the switching signal G. OHduty cycle of the switching signal G OH In this embodiment, the estimation circuit 111 determines, according to the indication signal S11, whether the duty cycle of the switching signal G OH is greater than a threshold value (e.g. 30% or 50%). In the case where the duty cycle of the switching signal G r1 is determined to be not greater than the threshold value, the estimation circuit 111 compensates the fundamental power P r12 according to a compensation parameter K to obtain an estimated current total input power P r12 , and generates an estimated power value VP r12 according to the estimated current total input power P OH . In the case where the duty cycle of the switching signal G r1 is determined to be greater than the threshold value, the estimation circuit 111 directly takes the fundamental power value VP r12 as the estimated power value VP r12 .
[0062] In this embodiment, the compensation parameter K is equal to the ratio of the preset double-frequency power to the preset fundamental power of the resonant tank at a specific duty cycle D. The compensation parameter K is predetermined and can be pre-stored in the estimation circuit 111. In other embodiments, the value of the compensation parameter is a predetermined parameter which can be pre-stored in a memory (not shown) of the electronic device 1. The compensation parameter K is read from the memory when the power detection circuit 11 is operated.
[0063] According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, the current total input power P r12 of the resonant tank can be estimated without complex calculation, since only the fundamental power of the resonant tank is needed. Moreover, the total input power P r12 (estimated power value VP r12 ) obtained by the present disclosure has high accuracy due to the compensation mechanism of the estimation circuit 111.
[0064] The analysis of how the power detection circuit 11 of the present disclosure can obtain the accurate current total input power P r12 from the fundamental power of the resonant tank will be described below.
[0065] Figure 2 represents the resonant tank voltage v r and its harmonic components. Referring to Figure 2 , the maximum value of the resonant tank voltage v r is the input voltage V in . v r1 represents the fundamental component of the resonant tank voltage v r (also referred to as the fundamental voltage of the resonant tank), and v r2 represents the double-frequency component of the resonant tank voltage v r (also referred to as the double-frequency voltage of the resonant tank).r3 the resonant tank voltage v r a three times frequency component (also referred to as a three times frequency voltage of the resonant tank) of the resonant tank voltage v r may be expressed as:
[0066]
[0067] wherein,
[0068] f s : represents a switching frequency of the resonant tank voltage v r ; and
[0069] represents a switching period of the switching frequency f s ; and
[0070] D: represents a duty cycle of the switching signal G OH , i.e., a ratio of a conduction time of the upper arm switching element Q H to a period time.
[0071] Equation (1) is expressed as:
[0072]
[0073] wherein,
[0074]
[0075] V in : represents a maximum value of a square wave of the resonant tank voltage v r ; and
[0076] n: represents a harmonic number of the resonant tank voltage v r ; and
[0077] θ n : an n-th harmonic phase angle.
[0078] Assuming that the duty cycle D is equal to 30%, D = 0.3 is brought into Equation (2) to obtain:
[0079]
[0080] In a case where only a peak value (maximum value) of the voltage is considered, the peak values of the fundamental frequency voltage v r1 , the second frequency voltage v r2 , and the third frequency voltage v r3 are 0.515 V in , 0.303 V in , and 0.066 V in , respectively. From these values, it can be observed that the fundamental frequency voltage v r1The peak value is greater than the second harmonic voltage V. r2 The peak value is much greater than the third harmonic voltage V. r3 The peak value. Therefore, the third harmonic voltage V can be ignored when detecting power. r3 The impact.
[0081] Since the input impedance of the resonant slot increases with the operating frequency of the resonant circuit 10, and according to the aforementioned fundamental frequency voltage v r1 Second harmonic voltage v r2 and the third harmonic voltage v r3 Therefore, based on the analysis, we only need to consider the influence of low-order voltage harmonics (i.e., fundamental frequency harmonics and second harmonic ramps) on the total input power of the resonant slot.
[0082] This disclosure describes the power distribution of the simulated resonant circuit 10. (See also...) Figure 4 The figure shows the fundamental frequency power P at duty cycles D of 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50%, respectively. r1 Second harmonic power P r2 Third harmonic power P r3 Coil power loss P coil Stray loss power P stray In total power P r The percentage it accounts for. For example... Figure 4 As shown, when the duty cycle D is equal to or less than 30%, the fundamental frequency power P r1 Percentage of total power P r Below 90%, third harmonic power P r3 Coil power loss P coil Stray loss power P stray Each accounts for a portion of the total power P r Less than 5%. When the duty cycle D is greater than 30%, the fundamental frequency power P r1 Almost equal to the total power P r The second harmonic power P r2 Third harmonic power P r3 Coil power loss P coil Stray loss power P stray Each also accounts for a portion of the total power P r Less than 5%.
[0083] Based on the above analysis, when the duty cycle D is large, due to the fundamental frequency power P r1 Almost equal to the total power P r Therefore, the estimation circuit 111 does not need to estimate the fundamental frequency power P. r1 Compensation is performed instead of directly converting the baseband power value VP. r1 As the estimated power value VP r12 That is, it can accurately estimate the current total input power P of the resonant circuit 10. r12As mentioned above, when the duty cycle D is small, the fundamental power P r1 accounts for less than 90% of the total power P r and the second harmonic power P r2 still accounts for a considerable proportion of the total power P r . In order to more accurately estimate the current total input power P r1 based on the fundamental power P r12 , the estimation circuit 111 compensates the fundamental power P r1 with a compensation parameter K to obtain an estimated power value VP r12 .
[0084] In one embodiment, the estimation circuit 111 sets a threshold value and determines whether to compensate the fundamental power P r1 based on whether the duty cycle D is greater than the threshold value. According to the above description, the threshold value can be set to 30%.
[0085] The definition of the compensation parameter K will be described below.
[0086] Suppose the current total input power P r12 is estimated based on the fundamental power P r1 and the second harmonic power P r2 of the resonant tank, P r12 can be expressed as:
[0087]
[0088] Substituting P and P into equation (4) and rearranging, we obtain:
[0089]
[0090] wherein,
[0091] the fundamental voltage of the resonant tank;
[0092] the second harmonic voltage of the resonant tank;
[0093] the input fundamental impedance of the resonant tank;
[0094] the input second harmonic impedance of the resonant tank;
[0095] R1, R2: the fundamental resistance and the second harmonic resistance of the resonant tank;
[0096] L1, L2: the fundamental inductance and the second harmonic inductance of the resonant tank;
[0097] ω s: operating angular velocity
[0098] Rewrite equation (5) as:
[0099] Rewrite equation (5) as:
[0100] = K, where = K v and = K1, equation (5) is rewritten as:
[0101] P r12 = P r1 (1 + K) = P r1 (1 + K v K1) equation (7)
[0102] Further,
[0103]
[0104] where ω o is the natural angular velocity of oscillation
[0105] According to equation (4) and equation (7), the compensation parameter K is the ratio of the second harmonic power P r2 to the fundamental power P r1 . According to equation (5), equation (7), and equation (8), the parameter K v is related to the ratio of the second harmonic voltage v r2 to the fundamental voltage v r1 , and the parameter K1 is related to the ratio of the second harmonic resistance to the fundamental resistance. When the duty cycle D is 10%, 20%, and 30%, the parameter K v is 0.9, 0.65, and 0.35, respectively. Therefore, according to equation (8), when the duty cycle D is larger, the proportion of the second harmonic power P r2 is smaller, which means that the error of estimating the current total input power P r1 from the fundamental power P r12 is smaller.
[0106] According to the above, when the duty cycle D is smaller, the parameter K v is larger, that is, the proportion of the second harmonic power P r2 is larger. Therefore, when estimating the current total input power P r1 from the fundamental power P r12 , the fundamental power P r1 needs to be compensated. In the embodiment of the present application, the fundamental power P r1 is compensated by the compensation parameter K, where the compensation parameter K is equal to the second harmonic power Pr2 the ratio of the fundamental power P r1 and equal to the parameter K v times the product of K v and K
[0107] According to equations (10) to (12), the parameter K L is determined according to the parameter K R and K Figure 5 is the error of the parameter K L and K R and its corresponding parameter K Figure 5 1 under the general operation of the electromagnetic oven. As shown in the figure, within a wide variation range of the parameter K L and K R (the region indicated by dots in the figure), the error of the parameter K Figure 5 1 is less than 10%, which means that the variation range of the parameter K R 1 is not large and is considered as a parameter not affected by the duty cycle D. Therefore, in the embodiment according to the present application, the electronic device 1 can first obtain the compensation parameter K v under a specific duty cycle D by testing or analysis, then obtain the parameter K v according to equation (8), and finally estimate the parameter K v 1 according to the compensation parameter K v and the parameter K v . The obtained compensation parameter K v and the parameter K v and K v 1 are stored in a memory of the electronic device 1 or in the estimation circuit 111 as predetermined parameters for use when the power detection circuit 11 operates.
[0108] In an embodiment, the electronic device 1 is predetermined with the compensation parameter K v and the parameter K r1 and K v 1 corresponding to the duty cycle D of 10%. In this case, the estimation circuit 111 sets the threshold value to 30% as the criterion for determining whether to compensate the fundamental power P r1 .
[0109] In other embodiments, the electronic device 1 can be predetermined with multiple compensation parameters K v and multiple parameters K OH and K v corresponding to multiple duty cycles as multiple predetermined parameters. When the power detection circuit 11 operates, a compensation parameter K OH or a set of parameters K v and K r1 1 among the multiple predetermined parameters can be selected according to the indication signal S OH 11 indicating the duty cycle D of the switching signal G OH to compensate the fundamental power P r1 .
[0110] In the above embodiments, the estimation circuit 11 determines whether to compensate the fundamental power P r1Compensation is performed. In other embodiments, regardless of the switching signal G OH What is the working cycle D? The estimation circuit 111 is based on the compensation parameter K for the fundamental frequency power P. r1 Compensation is performed to obtain an estimated current total input power P. r12 And based on the estimated current total input power P r12 Generate estimated power value VP r12 .
