[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of power electronic control, and particularly relates to a light load control method, device and equipment of a light storage front-stage LLC resonant converter and a medium. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the development of power electronic technology, the working efficiency and power density of power converters are increasingly required. Increasing the switching frequency can effectively reduce the volume of inductive elements in the converter, but higher switching frequency brings higher switching loss, which reduces the conversion efficiency. LLC resonant converters have more and more wide applications in light storage systems, direct current microgrids, ship power systems and the like due to the advantages of high efficiency, small size and easy to realize soft switching.
[0003] In existing researches, the LLC resonant converter often adopts a pulse frequency modulation (PFM) mode to regulate the output voltage. However, under light load conditions, the voltage gain of the traditional frequency conversion control is large, which greatly limits the input voltage range of the converter, and it is difficult to meet the application requirements of the wide range of input voltages of the light storage system. The intermittent control (PWM-burst) can widen the input voltage range to a certain extent, but the existing scheme still has the defects of large output voltage ripple and low efficiency.
[0004] The information disclosed in this BACKGROUND section is only for the purpose of enhancing the understanding of the background of the present application and should not be taken as an acknowledgment or any form of suggestion that this information forms prior art in the field. SUMMARY

[0046] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.
[0047] like Figures 1 to 6 The diagram illustrates a light-load control method for an LLC resonant converter in the optical storage front-end. It designs two voltage closed loops: a frequency loop and an intermittent loop. The frequency loop is used to control the output switching transistor drive signal, and the intermittent loop is used to determine whether the intermittent control mode has been entered. Figure 1 As shown, it includes the following steps:
[0048] S10: Sample the output voltage V out Voltage reference value V of the frequency loop ref1 The first differential voltage value is obtained by subtraction and input into the PI controller of the frequency loop, and the output limit is set. It should be noted that the amplitude of the limit should not be fixed, but should be set according to the switching frequency range. In this embodiment, the resonant frequency is around 90kHz according to the component parameters. In order to make the main operating frequency of the LLC resonant converter near the resonant frequency, the switching frequency range is set to 60k-160kHz in this embodiment.
[0049] S20: A sawtooth carrier is generated based on the output of the PI controller of the frequency loop. The sawtooth carrier intersects with the modulation wave to generate the drive signal for the primary-side switching transistor.
[0050] S30: Compare the drive signal with the output limiting to determine whether the frequency loop is in a saturated state;
[0051] S40: Sample the output voltage V out Voltage reference value V of the intermittent loop ref2 The second differential pressure value is obtained by subtracting the first value and then input into the PI controller of the intermittent loop to generate the output value of the PI controller.
[0052] S50: Compare the output value with the preset threshold to determine whether the intermittent loop is in a saturated state;
[0053] S60: Based on whether the frequency loop and the intermittent loop are in a saturated state, the operating condition of the LLC resonant converter is determined, thereby generating switching transistor drive signals with different characteristics to control the LLC resonant converter.
[0054] The operating condition of the LLC resonant converter is determined by the saturation state of the outputs of the frequency loop and intermittent loop PI controllers, and different characteristic switching transistor drive signals are generated. The LLC resonant converter used in this embodiment, such as... Figure 2As shown, the primary side is a full-bridge inverter circuit composed of four MOSFETs; the secondary side is a full-bridge uncontrolled rectifier circuit composed of four diodes; the core part is a resonant cavity composed of resonant inductance L r , resonant capacitance C r , excitation inductance L m , which can realize zero-voltage turn-on of the primary side MOSFET and zero-current turn-off of the secondary side diode through resonance between elements, reduce converter loss, and improve conversion efficiency.
[0055] If the frequency loop enters a saturation state, it indicates that the system cannot further optimize the output by adjusting the frequency, at which point it can enter an intermittent mode or maintain the current operating state; if the intermittent loop enters a saturation state, it indicates that the control under light load has reached the limit, and the system will maintain the intermittent mode or automatically exit the intermittent mode when the load changes to restore normal operation; the double-loop control design ensures high-efficiency operation of the LLC resonant converter under light load and normal load conditions, while reducing energy consumption through intermittent control under light load.
[0056] By designing the frequency loop and the intermittent loop, the output of the converter is accurately controlled under light load conditions, reducing energy loss; at the same time, under light load, the switching frequency is reduced through intermittent control, reducing the number of switching-on and switching-off of the switching tube and reducing the switching loss; in addition, reducing switching actions can also reduce the heat loss of the switching tube and other power devices, prolonging the service life of the devices; through double-loop control of the frequency loop and the intermittent loop, the system can maintain high-efficiency and stable operation under light load. The judgment of the saturation state further prevents the system from being unstable under extreme conditions, improving the safety and reliability of the system.
[0057] The input voltage range of the LLC resonant converter is widened, effectively solving the problem of excessively high voltage gain under light load conditions in traditional variable-frequency control; and the negative saturation condition is set to further widen the input voltage range.
[0058] Compared with the traditional intermittent control method using a voltage hysteresis loop, the output voltage ripple is well suppressed, the loss is reduced, and the conversion efficiency is improved.
[0059] As a preferred embodiment of the above, in step S10, the output amplitude of the frequency loop PI controller is set to the maximum count number, the upper limit of the output amplitude corresponds to the maximum count number of the minimum switching frequency, and the lower limit of the output amplitude corresponds to the maximum count number of the maximum switching frequency; in this embodiment, the sampling interval is selected as 1 / 24000000, and the output amplitude upper limit 400 and lower limit 150 are set accordingly.
[0060] The design of the limiting link makes the output of the PI controller remain in a stable range, especially in the light load condition, which can prevent the system efficiency from decreasing due to too low switching frequency or the switching loss from increasing due to too high switching frequency, so that the load change under the light load condition can be more effectively adapted.
[0061] In the embodiment, it is judged whether the drive signal reaches the set upper limit or lower limit, if yes, the frequency loop is in the saturated state, if not, the frequency loop is in the unsaturated state; specifically, by judging whether the drive signal reaches the upper limit or lower limit, the system frequency adjustment can be effectively prevented from being excessive, and the system can be prevented from working unstably or the switching loss from increasing due to the frequency exceeding the design range. The judgment of the saturated state is helpful for the stable operation of the system.
[0062] In step S20, the sawtooth carrier is generated according to the counting method, the switching frequency and the voltage gain under different frequencies corresponding to different outputs are realized, and the adjustment of the output voltage is realized; specifically, by flexibly adjusting the frequency and the gain, the system can maintain a stable output voltage under different load conditions.
[0063] In the embodiment, in step S30, the duty cycle of the drive signal of the switching tube is fixed, and the amplitude of the modulation wave is 0.5 times the amplitude of the sawtooth carrier, which is helpful for realizing a more stable drive signal, which will help to smooth the output voltage waveform and reduce high-frequency oscillation and electromagnetic interference (EMI).
[0064] In step S50, the output value is compared with the preset threshold value to judge whether the output value reaches the upper limit or lower limit of the preset threshold value, if yes, the intermittent loop is in the saturated state, if not, the intermittent loop is in the unsaturated state, so as to realize the effective control of whether the LLC resonant converter enters the intermittent mode under the light load condition, avoid unnecessary frequent switching, and improve the control precision; under the light load condition, the intermittent mode is helpful for reducing the switching loss, and by comparing the output value with the threshold value, the converter can be prevented from frequently entering the unnecessary intermittent mode, so as to optimize the system efficiency, especially in the case that the load change is small.
[0065] As preferred in the above embodiment, in step S60, as shown in Figure 3 the running condition of the LLC resonant converter is judged, including:
[0066] When the frequency loop and the intermittent loop are both in the unsaturated state, the LLC resonant converter is in normal working condition;
[0067] When the frequency loop is in the negative saturated state and the intermittent loop is in the unsaturated state, the LLC resonant converter is in the negative saturated working condition;
[0068] When the frequency loop and the intermittent loop are both in the saturated state, the LLC resonant converter is in the intermittent working condition.
[0069] By monitoring the saturation state of the frequency loop and the intermittent loop at the same time, the current operation mode of the LLC resonant converter can be accurately judged, ensuring that under different load conditions, the system can make appropriate adjustments according to the working condition to avoid misjudgment or false operation; when both the frequency loop and the intermittent loop are not saturated, the system is in normal operation mode; when both are saturated, the system enters intermittent working condition, which ensures smooth transition from normal working condition to intermittent working condition, helps to further reduce power consumption and switching loss under light load conditions, and improves system efficiency. By accurately distinguishing different working conditions, the stability of the system is improved, and the life of the switching element is prolonged by reducing unnecessary high-frequency switching operations, thereby enhancing the reliability of the system.
[0070] In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 4 , under normal working condition, the LLC resonant converter adjusts the switching frequency through frequency control to control the output voltage at the voltage reference value V ref1 of the frequency loop; this means that the system will continue to adjust the switching frequency to match the desired voltage output, achieving stable output voltage;
[0071] Under negative saturation working condition, the output of the frequency loop PI controller is stabilized at the lower limit of the output amplitude, limiting the switching frequency to the maximum switching frequency, and the gain is at the minimum value; compared with the traditional LLC resonant converter, the voltage input range and the gain range are effectively increased;
[0072] Under intermittent working condition, in response to the situation of too light load and too high input voltage, when the intermittent loop PI controller output is negatively saturated, the drive signal is turned off, and the output voltage is dynamically stabilized at the voltage reference value V ref2 of the intermittent loop; this can avoid frequent switching actions, and by controlling the output voltage in a dynamic balance state, the output voltage fluctuation is reduced.
[0073] The present application is different from the traditional intermittent control method using voltage hysteresis loop; the intermittent loop controls the output voltage at V ref2 dynamic balance, rather than fluctuating within the upper and lower limits, effectively reducing the output voltage ripple and improving the stability and voltage control accuracy of the system.
[0074] Through frequency control and maximum frequency limitation under negative saturation working condition, the system is ensured to operate stably under various working conditions, improving the stability of the system; under negative saturation working condition, the system can effectively increase the voltage input range and the gain range, expanding the application range of the system; by dynamically balancing the output voltage, the voltage fluctuation in the traditional method is reduced, the stability and accuracy of the output voltage are improved; under intermittent working condition, unnecessary switching operations are avoided, thereby optimizing the energy efficiency of the system and reducing energy consumption.
[0075] With reference toFigure 4 , mainly including frequency loop and intermittent loop, the working state of the converter is divided into three working conditions: normal working condition, negative saturation working condition and intermittent working condition. ref1 When the frequency loop and the intermittent loop are not negative saturation, the converter runs in the normal working condition, and the output voltage is controlled at V ref2 .
[0076] To verify the effectiveness of the above control method, a specific example is given in the embodiment, and the main parameters are shown in Table 1:
[0077] Table 1 Key parameter table
[0078]
[0079]
[0080] In the intermittent working condition, the output voltage and the switch tube driving waveform are as shown in Figure 5 ; the load shedding output voltage waveform under the fixed input voltage is as shown in Figure 6 .
[0081] As shown in Figure 5 , the converter works in the intermittent working condition, and the output voltage is stably and dynamically stabilized at V ref2 = 780V, and the voltage ripple is small, which proves that the light load control method proposed in the embodiment has good steady-state performance.
[0082] As shown in Figure 6 , in the initial state, the load P1 = 10kW, the converter works in the normal working condition, at 0.15s, the load is switched to P2 = 5kW, the converter switches the working condition to the negative saturation working condition; at 0.3s, the load is switched to P3 = 0.5kW, and the converter switches the working condition to the intermittent working condition, and it can be seen from the figure that the voltage change is completed in a short time, and the voltage fluctuation is small, which proves that the control method in the embodiment has good dynamic performance.
[0083] The light load control strategy is applied to the LLC resonant converter, but is not limited to the topology structure as shown in Figure 2 .
[0084] The application also includes a light load control device for a light storage front-stage LLC resonant converter, which uses the method as described above, as shown in Figure 7 , comprising:
