[0027] Referring to "embodiment" herein means that a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The phrase appearing in various positions in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. Those skilled in the art will explicitly and implicitly understand that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.
[0028] Next, the present application will be described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , where Figure 1 is a schematic flowchart of the first embodiment of the control method of the three-phase resonant conversion circuit of the present application, Figure 2 is a schematic structural diagram of the first embodiment of the three-phase resonant conversion circuit of the present application. Specifically, the following steps may be included:
[0030] S11: Obtain the output current and / or output voltage of the three-phase resonant output circuit.
[0031] It can be understood that the control method of the first three-phase resonant conversion circuit 20 in this embodiment is specifically applied to the first three-phase resonant conversion circuit 20 as shown in Figure 2 . The first three-phase resonant conversion circuit 20 includes a first three-phase switch circuit 21 and a first three-phase resonant output circuit 22. The first three-phase switch circuit 21 is coupled to the first three-phase resonant output circuit 22 and is used to be coupled to the power supply circuit 101. The first three-phase resonant output circuit 22 is also used to be coupled to the signal function circuit; wherein, the first control circuit 23 is coupled to the first three-phase switch circuit 21 and the first three-phase resonant output circuit 22 to control the first three-phase switch circuit 21 by using the control method of the first three-phase resonant conversion circuit 20 described in any item herein.
[0032] It should be noted that the power supply circuit 101 may specifically be a battery with a DC output, a DC voltage regulator, a photovoltaic power supply, a storage power supply, or any reasonable DC or AC power supply such as grid power supply, photovoltaic power supply, or independent generator. It may also be a power supply adjustment circuit that receives and performs power conversion and adjustment on a battery, a DC voltage regulator, a photovoltaic power supply, a storage power supply, a grid power supply, a photovoltaic power supply, an independent generator, or any other reasonable upper-level power supply to obtain a DC or AC power supply output. This embodiment does not limit this.
[0033] The signal function circuit can be understood as a load circuit that operates using the power supply output of the first three-phase resonant conversion circuit 20, or can also be understood as the backend function circuit of the first three-phase resonant conversion circuit 20, aiming to achieve any reasonable signal function.
[0034] In addition, "coupled" in this article refers to including any direct and indirect connection means. Therefore, if it is described in the text that the first circuit is coupled to the second circuit, it means that the first circuit can be directly connected to the second circuit through electrical connection, wireless transmission, optical transmission, or other signal connection means, or can be indirectly electrically connected or signal-connected to the second circuit through other circuits or connection means.
[0035] Specifically, the first control circuit 23 is configured to sample and obtain the output current and / or output voltage output from the first three-phase resonant output circuit 22 to the subsequent signal function circuit.
[0036] S12: Generate a three-phase drive control signal or a two-phase drive control signal based on the first comparison result between the output current and the two-phase maximum output current and / or the second comparison result between the output voltage and the two-phase maximum output voltage.
[0037] The first control circuit 23 compares the currently obtained output current with the two-phase maximum output current to obtain a first comparison result, that is, detects whether the currently obtained output current is greater than the two-phase maximum output current, and / or compares the currently obtained output voltage with the two-phase maximum output voltage to obtain a second comparison result, that is, detects whether the currently obtained output voltage is greater than the two-phase maximum output voltage.
[0038] Among them, the first control circuit 23 is further configured to determine the current control mode according to the first comparison result and / or the second comparison result, that is, adopt a three-phase wave generation mode or a two-phase wave generation mode. For example, when it is determined that the currently obtained output current is greater than the two-phase maximum output current, the three-phase wave generation mode is adopted; when it is determined that the currently obtained output current is not greater than the two-phase maximum output current and the currently obtained output voltage is not greater than the two-phase maximum output voltage, the two-phase wave generation mode is adopted, etc., so as to be able to reasonably select the three-phase wave generation mode or the two-phase wave generation mode in response to the first comparison result and / or the second comparison result, and / or any other reasonable judgment adjustment. The present application does not make a limitation on this.
[0039] It should be noted that the two-phase maximum output current can be specifically obtained by measuring the current ripple acceptable on the input side of the first three-phase resonant conversion circuit 20 and reasonably setting and adjusting the measurement result; the two-phase maximum output voltage can be specifically obtained by measuring the voltage required for the normal operation of the first three-phase resonant conversion circuit 20 under light load and the hard-switching physical characteristics of each switching tube in the first three-phase switch circuit 21, and reasonably setting and adjusting the measurement result.
[0040] In addition, light load refers to a common load state of an electronic circuit. The load states usually include: no load, light load, full load, and overload. Among them, light load is relative to full load, which means that within the load range of the circuit, the load rate is below 30%. Of course, it can also be considered that a load below 50% is a light load, and there is no strict definition. As for whether a light load means a large load resistance is not certain. In the load of a constant current source, a smaller resistance results in a lighter load. While in the load of a constant voltage source, a larger resistance results in a lighter load. In the electrical industry, light load means that an electrical control component can drive a load of the same power under the condition of rated power, but the torque it outputs is smaller. Example: The light load application of a frequency converter is 7.5KW, which means that when the frequency converter is at rated power, it can drive a motor of the same power, and this motor can only start under light load, with a smaller output torque of the motor.
[0041] And the output current and output voltage of the first three-phase resonant output circuit 22 will have different characteristics under the working states of no load, light load, full load, and overload.
[0042] Furthermore, the first control circuit 23 processes the currently obtained output voltage or output current using one or more of any reasonable feedback regulation methods such as a PI controller (proportional integral controller), a voltage loop, a current loop, etc. to obtain a feedback regulation signal, and then generates a three-phase drive control signal or a two-phase drive control signal using this feedback regulation signal according to the currently determined three-phase wave generation mode or two-phase wave generation mode.
[0043] In some embodiments, the three-phase drive control signal and the two-phase drive control signal can specifically be one or more of any reasonable control signals such as PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) signals or PFM (Pulse Frequency Modulation) signals, and the present application does not limit this.
[0044] S13: Adjust the switching state of the three-phase switch circuit using the three-phase drive control signal or the two-phase drive control signal to adjust the output voltage or output current.
[0045] Specifically, the first control circuit 23 correspondingly sends the currently generated three-phase drive control signal or two-phase drive control signal to three phases or any two phases of the first three-phase switch circuit 21 to adjust the switching state of three phases or any two phases of the first three-phase switch circuit 21, thereby adjusting the output voltage or output current to meet the current load demand.
[0046] In the above solution, by responding to the changes in the magnitudes of the output current and output voltage, flexible switching between the two-phase wave generation mode and the three-phase wave generation mode is achieved. When in light load or no-load conditions, the first three-phase switch circuit 21 is controlled to operate in the two-phase full-bridge mode. At this time, it is equivalent to only two arms of the first three-phase switch circuit 21 operating alternately to achieve two-phase wave generation, so as to ensure the stability of the output voltage and its DC gain curve state, which helps to improve the efficiency and stability of the first three-phase resonant conversion circuit 20 when the load is light. Moreover, in the case of heavy load or high output power requirements, it can also operate in the three-phase interleaved parallel mode to make full use of the advantages of three-phase interleaved parallel connection.
[0047] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , where Figure 3 is a schematic flowchart of the second implementation manner of the control method of the three-phase resonant conversion circuit of the present application, Figure 4 and is a schematic structural diagram of a specific embodiment of the three-phase resonant conversion circuit of the present application. The control method of the three-phase resonant conversion circuit in this implementation manner is Figure 1 a schematic flowchart of a refined implementation manner of the control method of the three-phase resonant conversion circuit in
[0048] S41: Detect whether it is the first power-on.
[0049] For ease of understanding, as Figure 4 shown, in this implementation manner, taking the second three-phase resonant conversion circuit 30 as a three-phase interleaved parallel LLC topology circuit as an example, the second three-phase switch circuit 31 further specifically includes a first-phase switch sub-circuit 311, a second-phase switch sub-circuit 312, and a third-phase switch sub-circuit 313 that are phase-coupled. The second three-phase switch circuit 31 is used to be coupled to the power supply circuit 101 to receive the input voltage Vin provided by the power supply circuit 101. The first-phase switch sub-circuit 311 includes a first switch tube Q1 and a second switch tube Q2. The second-phase switch sub-circuit 312 includes a third switch tube Q3 and a fourth switch tube Q4. The third-phase switch sub-circuit 313 includes a fifth switch tube Q5 and a sixth switch tube Q6.
[0050] Herein, the "three-phase" can be understood as the first-phase switch sub-circuit 311, the second-phase switch sub-circuit 312, and the third-phase switch sub-circuit 313, while the "two-phase" corresponds to any two of the first-phase switch sub-circuit 311, the second-phase switch sub-circuit 312, and the third-phase switch sub-circuit 313.
[0051] Specifically, the second three-phase resonant output circuit 32 may further include a three-phase resonant circuit 321, a three-phase isolation transformer circuit 322, a three-phase rectifier circuit 323, and a regulated output circuit 324. The three-phase resonant circuit 321 includes a first resonant inductor Lr1, a first resonant capacitor Cr1, a second resonant inductor Lr2, a second resonant capacitor Cr2, a third resonant inductor Lr3, and a third resonant capacitor Cr3.

The second end of the second resonant inductor Lr2 is coupled to the first end of the second resonant capacitor Cr2. The second end of the third resonant inductor Lr3 is coupled to the first end of the third resonant capacitor Cr3.

The second end of the first secondary winding Ln1 is coupled to the second end of the second secondary winding Ln2 and the second end of the second secondary winding Ln2. The second end of the first diode D1 is coupled to the second end of the third diode D3, the second end of the fifth diode D5, and the first end of the voltage stabilizing resistor Ro, and is used to be coupled to the first end of the signal function circuit.

In this embodiment, the electronic device 50 includes a housing 51 and a third three-phase resonant conversion circuit 52 connected to the housing 51.
[0123] It should be noted that the third three-phase resonant conversion circuit 52 described in this embodiment is the first three-phase resonant conversion circuit 20 or the second three-phase resonant conversion circuit 30 described in any of the above embodiments. For details, please refer to Figures 1 - 4 and the relevant text content, which will not be elaborated here.
[0124] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows: Different from the prior art, the control method of the three-phase resonant conversion circuit provided by the present application obtains the output current and / or output voltage of the three-phase resonant output circuit, and generates a three-phase drive control signal or a two-phase drive control signal based on the first comparison result between the output current and the two-phase maximum output current and / or the second comparison result between the output voltage and the two-phase maximum output voltage, and uses the three-phase drive control signal or the two-phase drive control signal to adjust the switching state of the three-phase switch circuit to adjust the output voltage or output current, so as to be able to flexibly switch between the two-phase wave generation mode and the three-phase wave generation mode in response to the changes in the magnitudes of the output current and output voltage. When the load is light or no-load, the three-phase switch circuit is controlled to operate in the two-phase full-bridge mode. At this time, it is equivalent to only two bridge arms of the three-phase switch circuit operating alternately to achieve two-phase wave generation, so as to ensure the stability of the output voltage and its DC gain curve state, which helps to improve the efficiency and stability of the three-phase resonant conversion circuit when the load is light; and in the case of heavy load or high output power required, it can also operate in the three-phase interleaved parallel mode to make full use of the advantages of three-phase interleaved parallel.
