Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of Class D power amplifiers, and in particular to a fully differential Class D power amplifier circuit. Background Technology

[0002] Most audio system design engineers are well aware of the power efficiency advantages of Class D amplifiers compared to Class A, Class B, and Class AB linear audio amplifiers. In Class AB linear amplifiers, the linear operation of the bias components and output transistors results in significant power losses, while in Class D amplifiers, the transistors are simply used as switches to direct current through the load, minimizing power loss in the output stage. Any power loss associated with Class D amplifiers is primarily attributable to the on-resistance of the output transistors, switching losses, and quiescent current overhead. Most of the power lost in the amplifier is dissipated as heat. Because Class D amplifiers can significantly reduce or eliminate the need for heatsinks, they are ideal for compact, high-power applications.

[0003] In the past, the power efficiency advantage of traditional PWM-based Class-D amplifiers compared to linear amplifiers was overshadowed by the cost of external filter components, EMI / EMC compatibility, and poor THD+N performance. However, most current-generation Class-D amplifiers utilize advanced modulation and feedback techniques to mitigate these issues.

[0004] With appropriate circuit parameter selection, noise shaping feedback technology and advanced topologies can be used to transfer PWM noise at the output of a Class-D amplifier to a higher frequency without altering the input low-frequency signal, thus achieving signal-noise separation. Furthermore, compared to integrated Class-D amplifiers, Class-D amplifiers built using discrete components can output higher voltages, have greater power, and offer greater circuit scalability.

[0043] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the PWM modulation and digital debouncing circuit III includes second and third comparators A5 and A6, first and second four-channel NAND gate digital circuit chips 74HC001 and 74HC002, and first and second SR latches 74HCT741 and 74HCT742; the positive output voltage V of the error correction input circuit I is converted into voltage V. outP When connected to the positive input terminal of the second comparator A5, the negative output voltage V is obtained. outN Connect the positive input terminal of the third comparator A6, and connect the output of the third operational amplifier A3 of the triangular wave generator circuit II to the negative input terminals of the second and third comparators A5 and A6; connect the output of the second comparator A5 to the first NAND gate N of the first four-channel NAND gate digital circuit chip 74HC001. 11 An input and a third NAND gate N 13 The two inputs and the output of the third comparator A6 are connected to the first NAND gate of the second four-channel NAND gate digital circuit chip 74HC002. 21 An input and a third NAND gate N 23 The two inputs, the first and second four-channel NAND gate digital circuit chips 74HC001 and 74HC002, have the same internal connection relationship as other circuits. Specifically, the first NAND gate N of the first and second four-channel NAND gate digital circuit chips 74HC001 and 74HC002...11 N 21 The other input is connected to the shared end of the sixth resistor R6 and the seventh resistor R7 of the triangular wave generator circuit II. The outputs are connected to the S input pins of the first and second SR latches 74HCT741 and 74HCT742, respectively, and the N pins of the second NAND gates of the first and second four-channel NAND gate digital circuit chips 74HC001 and 74HC002. 12 N 22 All input pins are connected to the common end of the sixth resistor R6 and the seventh resistor R7 of the triangular wave generator circuit II.

[0045] like Figure 3 As shown, the square wave voltage U1 is the output of the first comparator A4, and the triangular wave voltage U2 is the output of the third operational amplifier A3. The square wave voltage U1 and the triangular wave voltage U2 are in the same period. These two voltages are used to debouncing the subsequent PWM modulator, and the noise at the critical change point of the comparator is suppressed to a certain extent by using the principle of digital circuit.

[0046] When the PWM modulation is compared with the comparator output in the digital debouncing circuit III, if the input signal is affected by noise interference from the triangular wave generator circuit II or external sources, the output square wave may experience waveform sag. Since the signals here are either 0 or 5V square waves, the electrical signals can be considered as a series of digital signals. Therefore, the waveform sag problem can be eliminated by using digital circuitry.

[0047] like Figure 9 As shown, the square wave voltage U1 is a square wave synchronized with the triangular wave voltage U2 in the triangular wave generator circuit II. When the square wave voltage U1 is high, the triangular wave voltage U2 is in the falling phase; when the square wave voltage U1 is low, the triangular wave voltage U2 is in the rising phase. outP This is the output waveform at the positive output terminal of the second operational amplifier A2 in the error correction input circuit I. Since the oscillation frequency of the triangular wave generator circuit II is much greater than the frequency of the input signal, U can be considered to be within several triangular wave oscillation cycles. outP It is a constant signal. cmpP The second comparator A5 will convert U outP The output obtained after comparing with the triangular wave voltage U2. Figure 9 The two obvious indentations in the middle are the noise signals when the input of the comparator is interfered with.

[0048] In the triangular wave generator circuit II, the rise and fall of the square wave and the triangular wave are synchronized. The high and low levels of the square wave voltage U1 correspond to the fall and rise of the triangular wave voltage U2, respectively. Since the positive terminals of the second and third comparators A5 and A6 in the triangular wave generator circuit II are respectively input to the voltages output by the integrators at the positive and negative output terminals of the second comparator A2 in the error correction circuit I, and the negative terminal is input to the triangular wave voltage U2, under normal circumstances, the comparator's output signal should change from low to high when the triangular wave voltage U2 rises, and from high to low when the triangular wave voltage U2 falls. Furthermore, the comparator's output will only change from low to high when the square wave voltage U1, which is synchronized with the triangular wave voltage U2, is high, and from high to low when it is low.

Figure 10 As shown, suppose the output voltage U of the second comparator A5 at a certain moment is... cmpP The true value of the voltage is U cmp The true value of the square wave voltage U1 is U1. Based on the truth table, the digital circuit equations for the corresponding SR latch can be summarized as follows:

Using the result of the final formula (1), debouncing can be achieved through the designed digital circuit. The digital circuit used in the third comparator A6 is exactly the same as that used in the second comparator A5. In summary, using two 74LS00 chips, the outputs of the two comparators can be debounced.

[0068] Due to the capacitive effect of MOSFETs, they require a certain amount of time to fully turn on and off. This results in power loss through the MOSFETs, therefore a certain dead time is needed between the turn-on and turn-off of the upper and lower MOSFETs. Figure 6 As shown, capacitor C is connected to the DT pin of the UCC21520 chip. DT The capacitance value needs to be greater than or equal to 2.2nF, and the resistor R DT The resistor value connected to the DT pin in the UCC21520 chip is used to adjust the dead time t of the two MOSFETs.

[0071] Next, we'll explain the principle of the bootstrap capacitor. At a certain moment, the low-side NMOS transistor is turned on, and the high-side NMOS transistor is turned off. At this time, the capacitor connected to the high-side NMOS transistor pulls the midpoint between the two transistors to ground, and the fast recovery diode charges the bootstrap capacitor. After a period of time, the low-side NMOS transistor turns off, and the fast recovery diode also turns off. At this point, the bootstrap capacitor of the high-side NMOS transistor acts as a voltage source, serving as the power supply for the chip's internal drive, controlling the high-side NMOS transistor. Regardless of changes in the source voltage of the high-side NMOS transistor, the chip's internal drive can use the bootstrap circuit to turn the high-side NMOS transistor on.

[0072] like Figure 6 As shown, an eighteenth resistor R for current limiting is connected to the base of the high-side and low-side NMOS transistors. 18The circuit includes high-side and low-side Schottky diodes D2 and D3, and a current-limiting resistor to mitigate the surge voltage from the gate-drain capacitor when the NMOS transistor is turned on. The Schottky diodes also help to release the charge from the gate-drain capacitor when the NMOS transistor is turned off. Finally, an LC filter is used to implement low-pass filtering, resulting in a smoother system output.

[0074] The error correction input circuit I, combined with the feedback network V, utilizes noise shaping technology. To explain this principle, the entire circuit needs to be abstracted into a block diagram of a Laplace transform. In the Laplace transform domain (hereinafter referred to as the s-domain, where s = σ + jω is an arbitrary complex number, σ is a real number, ω is a real angular frequency, and j is an imaginary number), j... 2 The analysis is performed in the range of -1). To simplify the analysis, a single-ended input signal V is used here. inP The analysis shows that the feedback signal is taken from the negative output, which is V. fbN Analysis yields the following results: Figure 8 The s-domain block diagram shown has two integrators (represented by 1 / s) at the input, which are integrated circuits built from differential operational amplifiers. The scaling factor K is the amplification factor of the subsequent full-bridge output. The first resistor R at the positive and negative terminals... 1P R 1N The resistance value is R1, and the second resistor R is at the positive and negative terminals. 2P R 2N The resistance is R2, and the first capacitor C is at both the positive and negative terminals. 1P C 1N The capacitance value is C1, and the second capacitor C is located at both the positive and negative terminals. 2P C 2NThe capacitance value is C2. The modulation noise introduced by the PWM modulation and digital debouncing circuit after converting the input signal into a square wave is V. n V out The output voltage is given by the feedback impedance Z of the feedback network V. f It is also the reciprocal of the circuit feedback coefficient, F = 1 / Z f After calculation, the transfer functions of the block diagram abstracted from this circuit can be obtained as follows:

[0075] Input signal V inP transfer function H signal (s):

[0076]

[0077] Modulation noise V n transfer function H noise (s):

[0078]

[0079] Analysis of the frequency characteristics of these two transfer functions reveals that the transfer function of the modulation noise is a high-pass filter. Therefore, using an LC filter at the output can effectively filter out the noise generated during the modulation process. The transfer function of the input signal, however, is a low-pass filter, and the amplification factor of the input signal at low frequencies is Re{Z}. f} / R1,Re{Z f} represents Z f The real part of the amplification factor of this fully differential Class-D power amplifier circuit can be adjusted by changing the feedback impedance value Z of the feedback network. f To make adjustments.

[0080] Feedback networks can adjust the feedback coefficient F = 1 / Z of the feedback path. f This affects the value of the expression for the forward signal transfer function, which can then be used to adjust the closed-loop gain. Furthermore, observing the aforementioned transfer function equation (1), it can be found that if Z... f If ω = 0, then the transfer function diverges at the angular frequency ω = 0, and the system is unstable at this point. By connecting a set of capacitor networks and adjusting the feedback coefficient F = 1 / Z... f Let F be a set of feedback coefficients with imaginary parts composed of capacitor networks, then the position of the denominator poles in equation (1) can be adjusted to improve the stability of the system.

[0081] Next, we analyze the stability of the loop. Through loop analysis, if the feedback capacitor C in the feedback network... 9P C 9N The value is C f The resistor R connected in series with the capacitor 14P R 14NThe value is R Cf With resistors R9 and R 10 R 11 R 12 The series resistance is R f Let H(s) be the forward path system function and G(s) be the feedback path system function. The open-loop transfer function of this feedback loop is:

[0082]

[0083] From equation (5) above, we can see that the feedback system has 3 poles and 1 zero. The two poles located at s=0 produce a 180° phase difference, but, as Figure 11 As shown, since the zero point is always to the right of the other pole, the phase shift of this system at low frequencies is far from 180° and can never reach 180°. At high frequencies, its amplitude is less than 1. Therefore, theoretical analysis shows that this system is loop-stable at angular frequencies ω≠0. Simulation and experimental tests confirm that the system is also stable at angular frequencies ω=0, thus this feedback network provides high stability for the system.
