Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of power converters, and in particular relates to a control method and a control circuit for a bridgeless four-tube Buck-Boost PFC converter. Background Art

[0002] Power electronics technology is a technology that uses power semiconductor devices to efficiently convert electrical energy. Power electronic converters can make electrical energy better meet the requirements of different electrical equipment to achieve the goals of high-efficiency and high-quality electricity use. They have been applied to varying degrees in almost all industries. Based on the type of electrical energy, power electronic converters can be divided into DC converters (DC-DC Converter), inverters (DC-AC Converter), rectifiers (AC-DC Converter), and AC-DC Cyclo-Converters. Rectifiers are converters that convert AC power to DC power. In daily life and industrial fields, electrical energy is usually taken from the AC power grid, and many electrical equipment requires DC power supply. Therefore, rectifiers are widely used in LED lighting power supplies, communication power supplies, battery chargers, and DC motor power supplies.

[0003] In order to improve the power factor of the rectifier, power factor correction (PFC) technology is usually used. According to whether active components such as switching tubes are used, PFC technology can be divided into passive PFC and active PFC. Active PFC is further divided into bridge PFC and bridgeless PFC according to whether there is a rectifier bridge. Common PFC converters include Buck PFC converter, Boost PFC converter, and Buck-Boost PFC converter. Among them, Buck PFC converter has an input current dead zone and a low power factor; Boost PFC converter can only be used in high-voltage output occasions due to the characteristics of the boost circuit; Buck-Boost PFC converter has a negative output voltage polarity, and the voltage stress of the power tube is high, which is the sum of the input voltage peak and the output voltage. Applying the four-tube Buck-Boost circuit to the DC-DC stage of the PFC converter can obtain a four-tube Buck-Boost PFC converter. The converter has no dead zone in the input current, can achieve unity power factor, has low voltage stress on the switch tube, and can achieve zero voltage switching (ZVS) of all switch tubes. However, the inductor current ripple of this circuit is too low when the input AC voltage passes through zero, and the ZVS of the switch tube cannot be achieved. The outputs of two four-tube Buck-Boosts are connected in parallel, and the inputs are connected to the two ends of the AC voltage source respectively, and a bridgeless four-tube Buck-Boost PFC converter is obtained. Compared with the four-tube Buck-Boost PFC converter, this converter still has a higher voltage at both ends of the Buck-Boost when the input AC voltage passes through zero, and can achieve ZVS of all switch tubes at any time; at the same time, the four diodes in the current path are replaced by switch tubes, which reduces the conduction loss.

[0004] For the four-tube Buck-Boost converter, PWM plus phase shift control can be used to achieve ZVS of all switch tubes and minimize the inductor current pulsation. The input voltage of the bridgeless four-tube Buck-Boost PFC converter is a sine wave superimposed with a DC bias, and the input current is a sine wave with a wide range of variation. At the same time, there is a switching of power flow direction at the zero-crossing point of the input AC voltage, which is different from the working mode and design method of the DC-DC converter. Therefore, for the bridgeless four-tube Buck-Boost PFC converter, how to find a simple and feasible control scheme based on the characteristics of wide-range variation of input voltage and input current combined with the control ideas of the four-tube Buck-Boost converter is an urgent problem to be solved by researchers in this field.
