Description

[0002] Circuit breakers can be powered by AC-DC converters. AC-DC converters typically include a rectifier and a DC-DC converter. The rectifier rectifies the alternating current into a waveform, and then the DC-DC converter outputs constant voltage DC power.

[0003] DC-DC converters typically utilize the energy storage characteristics of energy storage elements. Through the operation of a controllable switch, the input electrical energy is stored in the energy storage element and then released to provide energy to the load. When the input voltage is greater than the rated output voltage, the DC-DC converter needs to step down, which is achieved by controlling the controllable switch to operate in step-down mode; when the input voltage is less than the rated output voltage, the DC-DC converter needs to step up, which is achieved by controlling the controllable switch to operate in step-up mode.

[0049] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand this solution, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this solution will be clearly described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this solution, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this solution, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of this solution.

[0050] The term "comprising" and any other variations thereof in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention mean "including but not limited to," and are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, not limited to the examples listed herein. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second," etc., are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a specific order.

[0051] The implementation of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0052] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a DC-DC converter provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The positive and negative input terminals of the DC-DC converter are used to input a DC input signal Vdc, and the positive and negative output terminals of the DC-DC converter are used to supply power to the load; see reference... Figure 1The aforementioned DC-DC converter module includes: a first switching unit 11, a second switching unit 12, a third switching unit 13, a first unidirectional conduction unit 14, a first inductor L1, a second inductor L2, a first capacitor C1, a second capacitor C2, and a controller.

[0053] The first end of the first switching unit 11 is connected to the first end of the first inductor L1 and the anode of the first unidirectional conduction unit 14, respectively. The second end of the first switching unit 11 is connected to the first end of the second inductor L2, the second end of the first capacitor C1 and the second end of the third switching unit 13, respectively.

[0054] The first end of the second switching unit 12 is connected to the cathode of the first unidirectional conduction unit 14 and the first end of the first capacitor C1, respectively. The second end of the second switching unit 12 is connected to the first end of the third switching unit 13, the first end of the second capacitor C2 and the positive output terminal of the DC converter, respectively.

[0055] The second terminal of the first inductor L1 is connected to the positive input terminal of the DC-DC converter;

[0056] The second terminal of the second inductor L2 is connected to the negative input terminal of the DC-DC converter, the negative output terminal of the DC-DC converter, and the second terminal of the second capacitor C2, respectively.

[0057] The controller is connected to the control terminal of the first switch unit 11, the control terminal of the second switch unit 12, and the control terminal of the third switch unit 13, respectively.

[0058] The controller is used to control the DC-DC converter to operate in boost, transient, or buck mode according to the voltage of the DC input signal, so that the positive and negative output terminals of the DC-DC converter output a constant voltage according to the rated output voltage; the transition mode is used when switching between boost and buck modes.

[0059] When the DC-DC converter is in the transient state, there is the same current path as in the boost state, and there is also the same current path as in the buck state.

[0060] refer to Figure 1This invention provides a novel DC-DC converter topology. Through the switching of the first switching unit 11, the second switching unit 12, and the third switching unit 13, the DC-DC converter exhibits three modes: boost mode, buck mode, and transition mode. The switching between boost and buck modes is not direct but must occur through a transition mode. For example, when switching from boost to buck mode, the boost mode first switches to a transition mode, and then from the transition mode back to buck mode; or when switching from buck to boost mode, the buck mode first switches to a transition mode, and then from the transition mode back to boost mode. Since the boost and transition modes share the same current path, the states of the various devices in the DC-DC converter do not change significantly during mode switching, thus preventing large ripple in the output voltage and current, improving switching smoothness, and enhancing the performance of the DC-DC converter.

[0061] In one possible implementation, refer to Figure 1 The first switching unit 11, the second switching unit 12 and the third switching unit 13 can all be formed by switching transistors (Q1, Q2 and Q3).

[0062] In this embodiment of the invention, each switching unit can be formed by a switching transistor (Q1, Q2 and Q3), and the on and off of each switching unit can be controlled by controlling the on and off of the switching transistor.

[0063] In one possible implementation, refer to Figure 1 The switching transistor can be a MOSFET.

[0064] In one possible implementation, refer to Figure 1 The first unidirectional conduction unit 14 is formed by a diode (D1).

[0065] In one possible implementation, controlling the DC-DC converter to operate in boost, transient, or buck mode based on the voltage of the DC input signal Vdc may include:

[0066] S101: When the voltage of the DC input signal Vdc is less than the first preset voltage Vd1, the DC converter is controlled to operate in boost mode;

[0067] S102: When the voltage of the DC input signal Vdc is not less than the first preset voltage Vd1 and not greater than the second preset voltage Vd2, the DC converter is controlled to operate in the transient state.

[0068] S103: When the voltage of the DC input signal Vdc is greater than the second preset voltage Vd2, control the DC converter to operate in buck mode;

[0069] Among them, the first preset voltage Vd1 is less than the rated output voltage, and the rated output voltage is less than the second preset voltage Vd2.

[0070] For example, in an AC-DC converter, the rectified AC power output is a convex wave, meaning the DC input signal Vdc is a convex wave. (See reference...) Figure 2 The DC input signal Vdc gradually rises and then falls. When the DC input signal Vdc is less than the rated output voltage, it needs to be boosted; conversely, when the DC input signal Vdc is not less than the rated output voltage, it needs to be bucked. Therefore, the DC converter needs to switch between boost and buck states.

[0071] In this embodiment of the invention, reference Figure 2 A first preset voltage Vd1 and a second preset voltage Vd2 are set, where the first preset voltage Vd1 is less than the rated output voltage and the second preset voltage Vd2 is greater than the rated output voltage. From time 0 to t1, the DC input signal Vdc is less than the first preset voltage Vd1, indicating a boost state; as the voltage increases, from t1 to t... a At a certain moment, when the voltage of the DC input signal Vdc is not less than the first preset voltage Vd1, it enters the transition state. There is an identical current loop between the boost state and the transition state, allowing for a smooth transition without large fluctuations in output voltage and current. As the voltage of the DC input signal Vdc continues to rise, t... a ~T p At time / 4, the voltage of the DC input signal Vdc is greater than the second preset voltage Vd2, and the DC converter switches to buck mode. Similarly, since there is the same current loop between the buck mode and the transient mode, the transition can be smooth. Thus, a smooth switching between the boost mode and the buck mode can be achieved through the transient mode, without generating large output voltage and current ripple, thereby improving the performance of the DC converter.

[0072] Similarly, T p / 4~ t b At time t, the DC-DC converter is in buck mode; b At time ~t2, the DC-DC converter switches to transient state; t2~T p At time / 2, the DC-DC converter switches to boost mode. Where T... p This refers to the cycle of the AC power supply.

[0073] In one possible implementation, S101 may include:

[0074] S1011: Control the second switching unit 12 to be turned on, and control the third switching unit 13 to be turned off;

[0075] S1012: Determine the first duty cycle based on the voltage of the DC input signal Vdc, and control the first switching unit 11 to operate according to the first duty cycle.

[0076] In this embodiment of the invention, when the DC-DC converter operates in boost mode, the second switching unit 12 is turned on, the third switching unit 13 is turned off, and PWM control is applied to the first switching unit 11. During the power supply phase, the first switching unit 11 is turned off, forming... Figure 3 The current path shown uses a DC input signal Vdc to charge the first capacitor C1 and the second capacitor C2, thus powering the load. During the freewheeling phase, the first switching unit 11 is turned on, forming... Figure 4 The current path shown has the first capacitor C1 and the second capacitor C2 supplying power to the load, while the DC input signal Vdc supplies power to the first inductor L1 and the second inductor L2. The two inductors are connected in series, resulting in low ripple. In this mode, the input side continues to flow with low ripple.

[0077] The duty cycle of the first switching unit 11 can be determined by the ratio of the DC input signal Vdc to the rated output voltage.

[0078] In one possible implementation, S102 may include:

[0079] S1021: When the voltage of the DC input signal Vdc is not less than the first preset voltage Vd1 and not greater than the rated output voltage, control the first switch unit 11 and the third switch unit 13 to open, and control the second switch unit 12 to turn on.

[0080] S1022: When the voltage of the DC input signal Vdc is greater than the rated output voltage but not greater than the second preset voltage Vd2, the first switch unit 11 and the second switch unit 12 are controlled to open, and the third switch unit 13 is controlled to turn on.

[0081] When the DC-DC converter operates in transient mode, and the voltage of the DC input signal Vdc is not less than the first preset voltage Vd1 and not greater than the rated output voltage, the reference voltage is... Figure 2 t1~t x At any given moment, a voltage boost is still required. At this time, the first switching unit 11 and the third switching unit 13 are disconnected, and the second switching unit 12 is turned on, forming... Figure 5 The current path shown is consistent with the current path in the boost state power supply stage. The circuit boosts the voltage, and the device state changes little, so it can smoothly transition from the boost state to the transition state.

[0082] When the voltage of the DC input signal Vdc is greater than the rated output voltage but not greater than the second preset voltage Vd2, t x ~t a At a certain time, the first switch unit 11 and the second switch unit 12 are disconnected, and the third switch unit 13 is turned on, forming... Figure 6 The current path shown is powered by the second capacitor C2, freewheeled by the second inductor L2, with a step-down output on the output side, and the DC input signal Vdc charges the first capacitor C1.

[0083] In one possible implementation, S103 may include:

[0084] S1031: Control the first switching unit 11 to turn off;

[0085] S1032: Determine the second duty cycle based on the voltage of the DC input signal Vdc, control the second switching unit 12 to operate according to the second duty cycle, and control the third switching unit 13 to be complementary to the second switching unit 12 for conduction.

[0086] When the DC-DC converter operates in buck mode, the first switching unit 11 is turned off, and the third switching unit 13 is complementary to the second switching unit 12 in conducting mode; when the second switching unit 12 is turned off and the third switching unit 13 is turned on, a voltage regulation is formed. Figure 7 The current path shown is the same as the step-down phase of the transient state, enabling a smooth switching from the transient state to the step-down state. When the second switching unit 12 is turned on and the third switching unit 13 is turned off, a current path is formed. Figure 8 The current path shown allows the DC input signal Vdc and the first capacitor C1 to simultaneously power the load.

[0087] In one possible implementation, the formulas for calculating the first inductance L1 and the second inductance L2 can be:

[0088]

[0089]

[0090]

[0091] The formula for calculating the first capacitor C1 is as follows:

[0092] ;

[0093] in, The inductance of the first inductor. This is the inductance of the second inductor; For the switching cycle, For input resistance, This represents the peak value of the input voltage. The angular velocity of the AC power supply. This is the rated output voltage; Rated power, For input line frequency, This represents the change in DC voltage.

[0094] The selection of parameters for the first inductor L1, the second inductor L2, and the first capacitor C1 also affects the current ripple. Therefore, it is necessary to select appropriate parameters for the first inductor L1, the second inductor L2, and the first capacitor C1 to reduce the current ripple. Specifically, based on the peak inductor current ripple in boost and buck modes, the calculation formulas for the first inductor L1 and the second inductor L2 are derived as shown above, resulting in a smaller current ripple in the DC-DC converter. Simultaneously, in buck mode, the first inductor L1 and the first capacitor C1 form a low-pass input filter. To ensure that changes in input voltage do not affect the output voltage and input current, the calculation formula for the first capacitor C1 is derived, further reducing the output voltage and current ripple and improving the performance of the DC-DC converter.

[0095] Corresponding to the above embodiments, this invention also provides a circuit breaker, including the DC converter provided in any of the above embodiments, and has the advantages of the above embodiments, which will not be elaborated here.

[0096] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features.
